Shmuck Group: Members Posts: 4 Member No.: 33,723 Joined: Aug 12th 2009 Location: Update Profile | Just wondering, i started playing today with the skyline 25gt, didn't run into any problems, stomped a few rx8s on battle and got past the first 2 stages with no losses. But, is there anything better then the 25 gt turbo? I'm lookin for a versatile car. Or, what would be the 25 gt's strong points. This post has been edited by V3n on Feb 26 2010, 07:58 PM |

RX-8's are good in the sense that they have monster acceleration. However if you want an all-rounder, I'd say Evo4/FD. They're a little tamer without the extreme sides of cars. a 25gt is like an R34, but with less understeer. Slightly. |

I've had no probs with it , yet idk if theres a better choice. The guy with the rx8 would beast me on takeoff, but at the first couple turns i would pass him easilly and get about +80, granted he had auto transmission and 20k points with no wins, so im assuming it wasnt the car This post has been edited by V3n on Feb 27 2010, 11:27 AM |

The 25GT is a lot like the RX-8 but less understeer and doesn't have a 6th gear so the acceleration isn't as good. But from what I've heard the car can really turn and can hold it's own on a number of courses. I think it's a bit of a challenge to start with (because of the understeer) but if you get a good handle on it, you'll be stomping newbie RX-8 users to come. But if you ever encounter someone who can tame the RX-8... good luck. The RX-8 is the best car in the game because of the advanced techniques expert players have found over the years. Makes me wanna take a spin in my 25GT... | ||

And if you ever want to try something harder... go RX-8. Most people have that car, but most people don't know how to drive it. |

Got halfway through the track after akina, i think its ironhazaka, with only a few problems. Tak, and Ry. 86 and some other car. So, anyone got any tips on turning? I would usually be at 4th, downshift, tap break, and hit the gas out of the turn. Worked ok, but i dont know if theres a better technique. |
