The new update schedule will be posted on this news section soon.

you don't need to use a Japanese account to upgrade your GT5P disc. i used my official account which is French.

check this thread to learn how to proceed with update 2.00 and this one for the latest update 2.10.

The BGM is a specially arranged song from a popular rock band called "Wieser" (? not sure about the original name), it is scheduled to be added in the Japanese version in the future.

the band is Weezer! :D

Does anyone have the translation for the spec II menus?

which menus? you mean with Drift Trial and stuff? i think it was already available in the forum, isn't it?

EDIT: English game manual can be downloaded from here.
 
Sorry to dig up the thread (wasn't this stickied before?) but im trying to update my JPN prologue to the latest (1.3?) version..

I get the update and get the thing that says press the PS button and exit.. then when I reload the game there is some license thing and two buttons below it.. any combination I try seems to either lead to the quit game messange or load it without the update... I can't read what it is saying.

Basically which buttons do I choose to update the game? every time I start it up it asks me again.

Any help would be really appreciated..

I am still using the japanese version of GTP5.
Can someone please post the english translations of the menus (of the menus that have changed eg. networking)
 
I expect the layout to be the same as the Japan version. I have the JPN version so I'll put in to see if anything seems different later, but I don't know any Japanese. Hope these help.

This User agreement pops up when you remove the tick on 'Disable Advanced Download Option'

The Maximum upload speed is set at 256 kbps and is ghosted out even though it looks bright in the image. I've not tried to see if I can select by changing other settings.

There's lots of scrolling text regarding each option. I can write it down if needed.

Expansion data is My page backgrounds, demonstrations. You can check for new data or delete the new backgrounds. No replays or GTTV will be deleted.

Disable Advanced Download Option - Disabled means you only download Content/Data from the server. Enabled means you link up to other PS3's that have this enabled.

Awesome thanks for that. I my JPN game I can select any upload speed. I changed it from 4mbps to 256K. It set to on by default. Should be that way in the PAL game too, wonder why its not.
