I don't agree with you but you deserve a big thanks. You made me realise that I can have free interior movement with the right stick on the controller. No more fixed camera positions!
 
Sorry, but, I don't think PD will take your review very seriously.

First off, you complain about the car's tendency to understeer. The GTR is AWD, of course it will understeer. Also, what tires are you using? Driving aids? Did you tune it at all? All of those things can increase understeer.

Then you go on to talk about the BRZ, and how it is a rebadged Toyota. This is news to no one. The FRS and GT86 were free, you only have pay $1 for the BRZ, IF you want to.

Now you say the yellow headlights are ugly. I'm sure you know why the headlights are yellow, it is for a purpose, not for looks. If you do not know, please view the rules and class regulations for the Nurb 24hr race.

Finally, you speak for everyone in saying we do not want race cars as DLC, only street cars. You can't pass your opinion on to PD a fact for the rest of us. There are many here who only want race cars, including me.

All of my GTR's except this handle well. The one in the video was stock. Driving on racing hard and only with ABS.

This.

Sorry OP .
 
Both Nur 24H GT-Rs handle completely different then stock. Check the distribution of the power. You need mod the car in such a way that it will behave like a stock GT-R.

The old one handles great but the new one sucks
 
Well it should be a bug, otherwise it is not a real driving simulator. A stock R35 on sport hard handles better than that **** lol

Well i drove mine in the game in Nurburgrind before i fully tuned when i got it from the delivery truck all i did was oil change at first it handles kinda strange but all i did was tring to find a new driving style for the car and the br-z it dont feel the same like the fr-s and 86 gt in my personal opinion

It's not a bug if they raced with this set up at the N24 ;)

It's possible they used softer suspension than you would at a normal race track. To make sure it the car would survive 24 hours of humps and bumps at the ring.

So any good set up?
 
Dude, don't triple post or you'll find the mighty banhammer come swinging. Nice reviews but triple posting isn't cool

Good, it isn't supposed to. Subaru used different spring rates for a slight bias toward understeer.
 
The new N24 2012 GTR handles differently, it has an almost stock road car weight, a unique suspension setting and custom torque split that is very rear bias. Check my post here :

Why the new N24 has a unique handling

And look further down to my bit if you find the N24's snappiness too much to handle. :p Not that I give a pig's arse as to how the GT-R drives, R35s still put me to sleep no matter how snappy they end up being. :lol:

Have you bought the car ? The more I drive it the more I felt that it actually is an FR car, and I just did some laps at Nordschleife, the car perform very similar to the on board video of Kaz doing the qualifying at 24H Nurb, when using SS tires instead of RH.

I spent lap after lap trying to find BB that works without fishtailing while trail braking, came up with 9/6 or 9/4, both worked well, but the former needs to do all the speed scrubbing when in straight line. This car needs very gentle steering, and a lot of patient. I'm going to try to break into 7:10 on the Nordschleife, with no ABS, no other aids, SS tires and no tuning. I did some calculation, the 24H qualify video had the Nordschleife section in around 7:10:dopey:
 
I honestly think this N24 GTR has more of a personality than previous GTR incarnations. While it may not be for the better in lap times, i find myself having to stay alert whenever i drive this as opposed to driving a regular GTR, which sort of just...goes. It's nice to have a change in pace sometimes.

The BRZ doesn't necessarily like drifting, unlike the other 2 counterparts. However on the very first drive i was able to get it around Laguna Seca a tad quicker than just about every 86 incarnation bar the first concept and the g sports. It also has a new rear wing you can purchase which just looks radical.

PD might not have modeled the sound right for the HS-V, but it made me sort of think. It shares the same sound as the GT by Citroen Race Car, maybe the Citroen would have a similar sound to the HS-V if they were to ever produce one? Another thing i noticed is the the cockpit is noticeably worse than the NSX cars, i loved seeing that huge red Honda logo on the steering wheel. With a great tune it definetely has potential for a really fast 650PP car, maybe not as insane as the 2J or the F1 GTR but definetely fast.
 
So the new GTR handles worst than the road car how can he race lol

It may be due to it's "almost" an FR car ;), I did a casual run at Nordschleife, no ABS, no other aids, sports soft tires, stock - no tuning, no oil change, 7:32.xxx with some sliding on numerous corners. It's not a bad car, it demands smooth and aggressive driving at the same time, and a good entry/exit line.

Well i love to drive most FR cars my favouritea are GT86, Silvia, S2000, SLS, Supra...but this...is just weird
