Power Isnt Everything

I never understood why people think GS-R's have better braking than the lower models. They come with the SAME brakes. Good example tho.

Haha Benji got owned. Type R had different brakes though, roughly the same as the Accord V6, wagon, SiR, etc.

Shut up. Putz.









Acura model no. for gs-r rotor: 45251-sk7-a10

Acura model no. for rs rotor : 45251-sky-j00


Now, It could be the same size, but I was told that the front rotors were different on a gs-r...

Either way, its still not an Accord.

Shut up. Putz.

SNAP!! Sleepy you gonna take that???

Well, theres that AND the fact that he was talking about an eg hatch. Id wager that a base integra was equipped with better brakes than the civic hatches.

Also, the Gran Turismo series is a Playstation exclusive. Ill let that error slide though, this isnt a video game forum.

My tires suck. Outside of that though, my car handles great! In fact, the only car that ever had half way decent tires was my CB, and that one wasnt lowered. Hopefully by next summer Ill have some savings to spend a little on tires and rims. Hopefully.

Hahaha I am 99% sure he meant YOU Velo! lol

Anyways I had read somewhere that GS-R's had the same brakes and it wouldnt surprise me. Some of the better model Civic's like the EX had bigger fronts than say the DX so I bet all Intergas have the bigger ones.

Yup, got Playstation 2 . . . . have played Gran Turismo . . . what in the hell is the one on Xbox360 though? It's pretty damned similar to GT. I gotta bake my 360 and get it working again

[benjiaccord]

Forza, and while I'll admit its good, I like the physics engine in the GT series a lot more. Forza felt like a lot of other racing games to me...where as GT felt like you had to adjust your inputs a lot more like you do with a car...it wasn't full throttle/full brake all the time...

[TomQuick]

I think Forza gets much harder as the levels go up. On the lower levels it is pretty much full throttle, but as the levels go up, it takes a lot more control, and finesse to get through the tracks.

I did like the GT game better though, now that you mention it. Maybe instead of fixing the 360 I'll just hook the PS2 back up.

And while you're at it, go get a ps3 in readiness for gt5

And while you're at it, go get a ps3 in readiness for gt5

I think I will have to take that advise benji.

[benjiaccord]

lol, I need to take my own advice too lol. The wife already okay'd it, I just gotta get over my pre-buyers remorse that I get for anything that I buy for myself...

[Cobalt]

I think I will have to take that advise benji.

DO IT! Just dont waste your time on GT5 Prologue... After a few hours you have C, B, and A class done and S class just gets annoying.

[TomQuick]

If it helps any, I have major remorse for getting the Xbox360. I went that route because there was a tremendous price difference between it and the PS3, and because they had "fixed" the problems with the early models lol. I should have just spent the money on the PS3 to begin with!

[benjiaccord]

What a lot of people don't realize is how history making the war between the 360 and the ps3 were...Had the xbox 360 been the winner, we wouldn't have had bluray players...we would just have hd players.

But because the world accepted the ps3 more so than the 360 we now have Bluray as the standard high definition choice...I don't believe there has been an outcome like this that was based on consumer's preferences in a long time...

[ACC0RD22]

I think it was more because the PS3 had the player built in, and the Xbox360's HD-DVD player was an add-on, which brought the price of the system to similar levels. Once the PS3's price fell, the competition was over, the PS3 is the better product. I have both, and since I bought my PS3, I havent turned my 360 on.
