Just because.

So how do I attack Nagao in general? Is it impossible to hit last gear in that course?

In my first few play through, I find it easy to drift with AWD but not so much with FR. It just swing a lot. Then again, Im using stock car. And the (deep) gutter really kill your speed.

its the hardest track imo.

theres only 1 section where its hard to not hit the wall i think... but thats because most of us are still new and our cars are stock.

i hit 5th gear 2-3 times on the course so yes its very possible.

i think the difference between a stock car and a full tune is huge in this version.

Most corners with gutters needs to be taken at 2nd gear, the wider ones can be taken at 3rd gear. I use a 5gear car and only used it twice in the whole map run and it was only for a short while. Its for the 2 long straights 1/3 and 2/3 of the map. Also a few corners can be taken at 3rd gear but u just need to step on the gas to help you corner it.

I know this doesnt help much as it doesnt identify which corners but all maps you will need to play and memorise it to really play well or improve. I drive an FD and a guy once tried playing a TA with my car (1/3 tuned). He couldnt beat my time because he usually drives an AWD and he commented that the handling was different as his AWD was more stable. It may also be that his Evo is FT but that just shows that each car needs to be driven differently depending upon whether its FR, FF or AWD

I think I've got 3:30 for both inbound and outbound Nagao. See what times i get when i get more used to it and more tuned.

I've known I've asked this many times, but no one has responded.
Can someone test out the Efini RX-7 and RZ and compare the two for me? Thanks.
I currently have a FTed Efini from 4 and I'm contemplating on whether or not to scrap it for an RZ. Obviously, if the Efini is better, I'll stick with it, but if the RZ is better, I MAY scrap it for the RZ. Thanks a lot.

I think you mean the RS, not the RZ...
I don't wanna explain the differences in reality/general... just Wiki it... The RS resembles the Spirit R in some way...

Weird. When I checked the IDAS official site, did I just see the RS already equipped with a ROLL CAGE!?

@jerry > i think till now after getting the V5 for 3 days n in Sing bout nearly 2 weeks is still hard to say which car is good between RS n Efini ... many of us r stil trying to figure how to play it ...

btw in the Jap Exp V5 u have to buy new card n cars n tune again ...

u can't transfer your V4 to V5 so is better u start of with a new car of your choice n learn how to play it coz is totally a whole new game now ...

@Those who replied to my question
Thanks. I've seen the vid and it seems that I was doing it wrong. I used a 6 gear car but most of the time I was using 2nd gear. Must be the gear calibration glitch. :\

Gonna try it again next week and hopefully the machine are fixed and the cards have arrived.

Also what would be the best car for Nagao in your opinion?

Haha thanks. I was about to ask them to do it yesterday but I didnt see any technicians around. You saved me some trouble.

But going to TS, it's a bit too far from me since currently my resident is at Kajang and Cyberjaya. :\

Also can you link me to the Japanese IR?

Wait, so if Jap V4 doesn't transfer to V5 export, what does this bode for guys like me in the US when it'll eventually get over here as the international version? I sure hope our V4 cards will transfer (I have a few tongue.gif)
