We've all seen them, got them, know what we like in them. So I ask you, if I put page designs up here, will you give me ideas to make them better? You dont even have to be a GT fan, just think of it as an Import Tuner magazine or something. So yeah, opinions please. [Cover] [Page 2&3] [Page 4&5] [Page 6&7] [Page 8&9] [Page 10&11] (page 11 created by Dr1FT3R ) [Back cover] Yeah, Issue #1 is done! Hooray! Okay, for people wanting their cars featured, I need these things from you. - Full car name - Power - Parts list - 3 images, 2 must be portrait size and 1 landscape - Unique quality of the car (top speed, tuning technique, anything) - (optional) your own article, or a paragraph from you talking about your car Website: http://GranTurismoMagazine.piczo.com (WIP, nothing uploaded yet) This post has been edited by VTiRoj on Oct 16 2007, 05:41 AM |

We check out this ride and see if it can really get us some bread and milk.... i dont im bored.... looks good but maybe try putting more color into the pages.... |

IDW Expert Member Group: Members Posts: 100 Member No.: 20,276 Joined: Sep 17th 2006 Location: Cape Town, South Africa | It looks good. One quick question - is it gonna be a real mag thats gonna be available - as in online? if so there is no real need for the barcode, and it might b possible to make it into an interactive flash magazine - compiled in flash, with the option of turning the pages back and forth, or maybe in a PDF format - if ur gonna take this that far. |

It wont be a proper, publicized magazine online no. The barcode is there for the realistic look. If I had a flash program, I would consider making it turn pages | ||

Well, this is a WIP of a 1st issue so if you got an article, send it my way and I'll see what happens from there I'm always up for other people's cars, or adverts | ||

Always Lurking... Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,760 Member No.: 20,050 Joined: Sep 6th 2006 Location: Singapore | Well... you're in luck! Battalion Tuners are back and on fire with three cars under their belt... -Expect to see a 280bhp Toyota MR2 Spyder that hit 300kmh just nicely if you speed down De la Sarthe. -After so much groaning from Top Gear concerning that British cars should have a chance at tuning, a 600bhp Jaguar XKR is in the process. -If you wish to have a tricky family car that loves to challenge you with its naughty nature, then have a go at the Evo V, which obviously, will get you spanked if you don't tame it. |

Sounds interesting, I'll actually edit the first post for requirements people wanting their cars featured will need. Oh, and the Chaser article is up. | ||

Were you expecting something else? Group: Advanced Members Posts: 3,921 Member No.: 20,929 Joined: Oct 14th 2006 Location: Some place in South-East Asia | Too bad the Chaser didn't do 180. But it can carry groceries, and still do 177! The 900bhp R34 pace-car is going to be something, no doubt. |

Swapping parts I dont think so, but comparisons on say, Stage 4 vs Stage 5 turbo's will happen, for example. Meteor: You got that right | ||

Heh, well, a Starlet may feature, its a car I have never touched in GT4, so the results will be interesting for sure. Page 9 up. Edit: Just a back cover left, and Issue #1 can be called complete This post has been edited by VTiRoj on Oct 15 2007, 02:49 PM | ||

¥5000 GET !! Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,163 Member No.: 8,897 Joined: Jun 26th 2005 Location: Vancouver, Canada | Dope. Chaser's finally gettin' some light around here. Might I suggest a Euro-bucket vs Asia-bucket showdown? |

Gotta give the Chaser some love y'know Maybe in the 3rd issue (yeah, I'm sure it'll come to a 3rd issue at this rate), I'll do a Asia vs Euro showdown. Maybe a 4WD head to head, or a supercar challenge. I'll see what happens. Oh, and the back cover is now done. I can safely say Issue #1 is done and complete. Gonna look into a freewebs or something for a website to display this thing | ||
