I just stumbled upon a Suzuki GSX/4 in the UCDand bought it. It is fantastic! It's very similar to the KTM X-Bow and Ariel Atom, for those of you who are not familiar with it. Does anyone else think that this car is amazing?
 
i was smitten with it in gt4.
 
Mine is fully tuned and does 0-60mph in around 2.8 sec 0-100mph in 6.2 and tops out at 186 mph with the stock tranny'!! Handles very well too :D
 
It's such a beast :drool:
I hated it back in GT4 because it was a pain in the *** to win against it with the Suzuki S4 (?) Concept...
But now with the cockpit view it's awesome.
 
I discoverered mine recently, it's a really well balanced car. For the same PP it's quicker than the caterham for what I consider a similar class car.
 
Yeah, what a great car. I have 4 of 'em! Sounds fantastic, and here's another thumbs-up for the new cockpit view.
 
Just picked one up in the OCD. In a rather fetching GSX-R/4 Yellow Metallic :)

Dunno why, but I can see there being a little niche in the racing league section for this motor.

GSX-R/4 one-make championship anyone? ;)
 
It's really a nice car, just as much fun as the Caterham and yes, the cockpit is really good for a Standard car!

how did you managed to get that? stop watch on the side?
 
I have 6 of them, from bone stock to max modified. I think I've done more miles in this car than any other in the game.
 
Awesome car, I discovered this gem in GT4. I'd be up for one-make series if you guys start one.

I figured out that you can use the lap timer; if you stop right at the line, then hold the car, floor it, and release the brakes, you can launch it and the timer will start just as your car passes the start line (hopefully the moment it starts moving), Then you pause the game the moment the car hits 60, and estimate away.
I have a reviews thread on which I am going to review the GSX/4 (Car Reviews by beeblebrox237), then I am going to modify mine. It could really use the wing from GT Auto, as the rear end is a bit loose at high speed.
 
I'm very tempted to fire one up, or help someone in setting one up. Had my first blast around Cape Ring in one and without TCS they're such tail happy things! Could make for a fun series I'd say :D

👍👍 A simple Top Gear Test Track rolling start work around (before Spec 2).

I've been saving this car for the day they made it so we can use the cockpit view. Looks like my patience and 1,000 other cars to choose paid off lol.

No joke, I really waited till they gave us cockpit view, I'll probably test it out tonight for the first time since GT4 that ONE time. hahaha
 
To be quite honest I thought the car was disappointing until the physics update. Now with the new physics it feels perfect!

It also doesn't look right without the wing, imo. So all of mine have the wing except the 0/0 that I'm keeping.
 
It's an amazing car. I agree with everyone that said it was well-balanced. I ran circles around cars with double the horsepower in time attacks.
