For right now the club is called "Team Mazda"

I've barely even played the game yet i'll get around to it shortly. If anyone else has suggestions on a name let me hear it. We should collaborate together for a site (i'll host and either do a sub or register a domain). Again, send a msg to g04 and I'll be sure to add you in there (not sure of the level other than pres. and recruit... but i'll be sure everyone is somewhat equal :))

Also, anyone who plays halo2 and is interested in the wonderful glitching capabilites, suberjumps, floating, getting on top of EVERY level, etc... just hit me up and we can have some fun. Peace out...

:( :( still waiting on my motor :( :(

quick opinion: who would you go with? wagnermotorsports or MAM for a built short block?

I actually just talked to them yesterday. I've ordered the s/b from wagner around 4 months ago (although there were some problems, everything got resolved). By no means am I dissing wagner, I just thought I'd get a few opinions from fellow msp owners. I'm just tired of waiting on my motor and driving around a POS mercedes doesn't make me any happier. We'll see what happens tho :\

i think you can buy it if you choose asia as your home base, but i dunno because i picked NA... its only 20K credits (pretty accurate to real life)...

i bought the game the day it came out, and i must say, TOLD ALL YOU GT4 GUYS SO!!! :p... overall its not as good as the hype made it out to be, but the 4wheel physics engine is A LOT better than gt4, not to mention the tire engine, cars handle more realistically, react more realistically to terrain changes, are a lot touchier when it comes to tuning the suspension, brakes, etc etc...

this game is awesome, i'll be on xbox live soon enough, i'll join the team then...

Hey, I too have a gt28rs (although it's currently being built along with other things). Question for yah,
Do you suggest using the stock turbo manifold or replacing it with a custom or mam mani? I was thinking about going the custom route but I'm wondering if the stock will suffice. Any opinions?

Mr. 4500 RPM
05-06-2005, 05:15 PM

project_msp
05-06-2005, 05:22 PM
what type of access point are you using? Is it just a standalone WAP (wireless access point) or one with integrated routing/switching capabilites? If your wap has rj45 (kinda looks like a telephone wire plug) jacks in the back (not just one) then you are set. If not and It is just a wap you can still do it, you just need to install a second wired network card and provide some means of routing functionality to the computer. lemme know and I can help yah :P

Coolness. My gamertag Proto1337.

I can't beleive this game has DGMotorsport and Corksport, that is so awsome! Since paint is a free option I painted mine to look like my real Protege. It's cool to see what you can really do to your Protege and then go get the parts. I put on the Wings West hood and now I really want to get one and paint the sides to match. Too bad you can't paint the DGM lip. I guess it's CF and it even adds the CF DGM grill. Same w/ the Erubuni front, it adds their grill too. This game is (first)

Mr. 4500 RPM
05-06-2005, 05:48 PM
well its a full wireless setup. basically its setup this way: the cable modem is connected to the wireless router. the router itself is a linksys g wireless router i thinkg it is a wap54g or wrt54g series, i can find out specifically if needed. we have a wiresless expander as well from the same company so the signal reaches all around the house and down stairs. what i am wondering is if i could use a pc wireless usb, unsure if i have one lying around though. but anyways im wondering if one could work with x-box or not. my dad put a nice 42 in flat screen tv in the basement which is just incredible for gaming and anything really. and id be playing from the basement, wireless reaches there but router hooked up upstairs. i was thinking of buying on of those "x-box wireless' things they sell at compusa, there are two offered. one specifically for x-box another that is compatible with x-box and ps2 and gamecube. just wondering if this answers anything or not and what could i do to save some mula.

i beleive its a WAP

For using your Xbox with a wireless network, all you need is a Wireless/ethernet bridge.

If you have a PC that you can use to configure your bridge with, there is no need to get one that is made "for the Xbox".

I am very happily using my Xbox on my wireless network with a plain Netgear Wireless Bridge. No problems.

I think most will work, but most of the ones i've seen have the "XBOX Live Compatible" logo on them. All that matters is that it connects with your wireless router with no problems (ie: try to get the same brand as your router)

yeah i thought so but i was wondering cause i didnt want it to be that i fork over 79.99-99.99 for one and get ass pounded by billy gates thanks. ill see if we have an extra one lying around!

I think Guild Wars is Free, so Is BattleField 1942 (and that game rocks)...not to mention there is a new patch for Battlefield 1942 that bsically makes it an entirly new game Desert Something I think...turns the game into modern combat /tj

In career mode, purchase the Volkswagen Jetta GLX VR6 from the Volkswagen dealership. Next, head into the Garage and the Buy Upgrades screen. Enter the "Engine and Power" section and purchase every engine upgrade available except for the Engine Swap (that includes each individual turbo upgrade, each intercooler, etc.). When you've finally purchased every upgrade, you can then purchase the second engine that's available in the Engine Swap for 2,500 Cr.

After purchasing the new engine, re-install the stock engine. You can then sell the second engine that you purchased for 44,092 Cr (remember, you only paid 2,500 Cr for it) for a profit. You can then buy the engine again (for 2,500 Cr), install the stock engine again, and sell the new engine again for 44,092 Cr. You can repeat this trick to build up as much money as you want.

Anyway, time to max out! I'm already up to 200,000+ credits and I might go to see if it ceilings at 999,999 or what!

That was awsome playing cat/mouse, I wonder if we ever played together. It was also fun to play knockout, where the everybody had the same fairly slow car/truck and whoever finnished last place upgraded to a fast car for the next race, then that fast car beats up on whoever is in first place. the last person in each race picks up a fast car til there is only one slow car left, the winner. i traded all my games in when i got forza, except halo2 and project gotham 2. do you still get on pgr2? did you buy the booster packs?

the booster packs were worth it imo. there were some kick ass cars in them and when i lost my saved game i lost all the cars i had unlocked or purchased in career, but the boosters were saved on the live so i didnt lose all the good cars. the srt radical is a lot of fun to drive and the dodge srt10 ram

Welcome :) They aren't cheats, they're glitches. And should soon be patched up :\

Also, to do the glitch I listed above (it is suppose to be patched soon so do it and hurry up :P). You need to find someone to host the room (do it yourself and trade off a few times with the countless amount of newbs that will come to your room). To do it, go online, go to career mode (the online career mode) choose a class (s class is best) and create a circuit race. Make it 1 lap on Test Track Oval. You will now be the host of this room. Simply get a few people in there (8 is the best, you get tons of money) and start the 1 lap race. Once you have started quit the race and go back to the lobby. Once you are there, change the game options and set it to 75 laps. Instead of the people racing having to go around 74 more time, they simply finish the 1 lap and collect all of the money that you would normally get from a 75 lap race (plus the added credit from all of the folks who joined). Some people say to put it on Nurburgring when you change the laps to 75, but it only helps by a couple thousand and isn't really worth the extra effort. Now what I just explained will not help your rank or credits in anyway. So you need to find someone else to do what I just told yah. Other than that have fun :) You unlock so mandy cars and gain level (and credit) in the blink of an eye. Plus oval tracks are just fun anyway :)

Also... anyone want any kind of car let me know...

nah, the drivatar is the shit, way to cool... you have to train him by doing races, and how well you perform going through the twisties determines how good your drivatar is, they also take characteristics of your driving, like the speeds that you enter turns, where you start accelerating again while leaving a turn, etc, and if you watch your drivatar driving you can actually see the techniques they use are VERY similar to the way you yourself drive... i think the problem with mine is that i barrel into corners faster than the computer would, so the drivatar is trying to mimick my style but just isn't good enough :D, so he slides out around some of the corners...

but since i made that post i worked with him some more and he got A LOT better, now with a comparable car to everything else on the track he will still walk all over them...
