I'm just gonna ask my question again. Is their a way to engine swap a V8 into a 240sx/Silvia/Skyline?
You can for the 240SX (just bought one to find out), so I assume you'll be able to do the same for the Skylines and Silvias.
 
Question, is there something I have to do to get the Forza Rewards cars? I'm asking because the Forza website says I'm at tier 4 and I haven't gotten the free cars yet. or maybe I do need the xbone version for them?
 
Well now that's unexpected: picked up my One version, but the 360 copies were all sold out. They also couldn't sell me a year's Gold, so I'm off to the nearest Best Buy.

Also didn't get my Lambo pre-order; it apparently hasn't been shipped yet.

People on the Forza forums say they'll be released tomorrow.

Should be in an e-mail? Gamestop e-mailed me my Lambo code this morning.
 
Oh god, I just noticed a song in FH2 that sounds familiar. A bit like this song from GT5, except in remix form. O_O
 
The song is called Changes by Faul and Wad Ad.

Thanks, but I wasn't asking for the name of the song. I was just pointing out something about the game as a referrence to jokes I've heard about the song I posted in GT5.
 
Bliss is hooning around France and Italy in a Lancia Fulvia while listening to classical music.

Radio Levante is my favorite station so far. Not only because I love classical music, but because the timing seems to be perfect. Mussorgsky's "The Great Gate of Kiev" reached it's crescendo at exactly the moment I crossed the finish line in a race with people cheering and the fireworks going off in perfect timing. And then if that wasn't enough, I left for the road trip to Saint-Martin at night in the pouring rain in a Renault 5 Turbo (as you do) when Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries" began playing. So beautifully melodramatic. I cannot imagine a better song in that situation.

So far, my favorite part of the game has been the road trips. No pressure, no stress, just high speed driving across the countryside with a few of your mates.

We don't even get the game until Friday in my country (I guess they figured Europeans can always look out of their window instead) but I'm jealous of 360 owners for having their own car club. If GTP don't set up an XBone chapter I'm signing up with Darin Gangi. :grumpy: :D

Here how i feel about all this s**tstorm:
S***storm is the track by Darude right? :lol:
 
I've made a GTP car club, not too sure how I can get people to join though.

Doing had a few left over wheelspins. In one session I got an Evo VIII, a Dino, an E-Type and a Golf Mk2. :D

And my Focus ST can reach 370kp/h!
 
Question. As I am level 22 (green wristband) I notice that after each event I complete, it isn't available on the map to re-race later. Is there a way down the road to re-race certain events? I would love to experience some of the races with rain or no rain, which leads me to ask, are events pre-weathered?

Maybe you unlock them again after you win the 15 championships and become champion?
 
I imagine they are replayable eventually, at least I hope so.

So I have decided to keep my wheelspins until I unlock the 'Better Outcome' perk, hope this is worth it. Those wheelspins are always exciting!
 
Bah, there's no wheelspins in the 360 version, which means I've only bought a single car to try to conserve money. I do have half the barn finds and three of the four showcase cars, though!

The Gallery on the official website hasn't updated, so I can't share my trusty Miata or VW Bus quite yet :-/
 
Well, I checked Forza Rewards and my game; still no Forza Rewards cars. I suppose they're only on the xbone version, that's a shame. I'll have to wait a year to get FH2 on the xbone to claim them.

That's a huge bummer. The wheel spins are so dang rewarding and exciting. Like spinning a slot machine at the Casino. Reminds me a lot of the happy wheel spinner in Happy wars. Or the Casino in TDU2. Real bummer the 360 players are missing out on that feature along with some other features. Oh well as long as everyone is having fun that's all that counts. But as I said in my first general impression thread, I am loving this game. Seriously THE most fun I have had in a racing game in many years. :)

FOr those that don't know what the FH2 X1 wheel spin slot machine is. Starts at 0:25.
