mistake in gt3

[mindless_dude]

i was checking the cars specs and the castrol supra engine type is an inline 4 ?

can anyone prove that

There are actually tons of mistakes in GT3,mostly because of a bad translation (which is actually fairly common in Japanese originated games). It's been a really long time since I've played GT3, but I'll bet that it is the same problem.

i think it might actualy use a 4cyl engine. i know the top secret supra uses the 4 cyl mr2 engine. so i think maybe that does too.

dumb asians...lol jk

If you check this link http://www.jgtc.net/race/2002/02team/02team036.htm you will actually see that the Supra has turbocharged Inline 4 engine and it's only 2-liters as the road Supra has 3-liter Inline 6 engine.

 

[advanR]

i was right! yay.

The game was 100.1% correct. Back when the 1999 JGTC circuit started, Team Tom's couldn't exactly figure out how to configure the 6-cycl to conform to the GT500 race specs. So, they dropped it down to an I4 and went from there. 500 ps from a 4 cylinder...that's pretty damn good.

And btw, it's 100.1% correct, because if you read the scrolling ticker at the bottom when you purchase the car, it'll explain what i just told ya'll.

When in your garage and you try to check the TQ on your car it seems quite weird. Not accurate.

 

[advanR]

yea thats messed up.

It somewhat caught me off guard the first time I saw like 350 hp with like 23 ft. lb. tq. -shakes head-

if u watch the intro for GT3 with the castrol supra u only see 4 cylinders firing so its not a mistake.
just like the british touring mondeo which i tought was a V6 was actually an I4.

wow, look at that camel toe. i think a mod might remove that avatar, lmfao.

Aside form conforming to spec, the biggest reason for the 4cylinder engine is placement of mass. With a smaller engine, it is moved closer to the firewall, centering the mass of the engine. With this comes a lighter weight and better acceleration. Another upside is that eventhough it is a smaller engine, you can still get plenty of power from it...Granted, the gt500 spec doesn't allow full use of its potential, Top Secret has gone the extra mile and built a 720hp Supra using the 3SGTE engine. The Top Secret Supra can go from 0 to 200mph in about 14 seconds...

Hahahah, advanR, your avatar is hilarious.

The torque in GT3 is measured in kg-m's (Kilogram Meters) as opposed to lb-ft (Pound Feet). Even though Polyphony Digital has written in "lb-ft" after the torque figure. It should still be "kg-m" written after the torque figure.


So if you want to see what kind of torque your car actually has in lb-ft, multiply the torque number by 7.233


So if you have 23 kg-m of torque it is actually 166 lb-ft of torque.

Usually kg-m have a decimal place behind them to be more accurate.

You were right mate. The Castrol Supra has the engine of the Celica Rally Car in it. The 2.0I Litre injection in-line 4. I thought people knew that ? and do you all know that Skylines are NOT 4WD, lol.

 

[MilleniumHand]

indeed, skylines are part time awd

 

[ving]

indeed....

altho one mistake could be that the toyota as200 is in the game as a 4 speed. Here in australia it is called a lexus is200 and is a 6 speed, only the automatic is a 4 speed. I doubt that they would have put the automatic ver in the game instead of the manual hence it being a mistake....... no?

Actually the original placement of that engine was in the MR-2...

I says Inline 6 in mine, I think.

[advanR]

hahahahhahahahahhhhaaaaaaaaaaa

 

[hellyeah340]

I was correct. I looked in a slang dictionary and I always thought it was that but wasnt sure.

 

[Vasco]

Well, anyway, yep. Well, Toyota own Lexus.
