It's funny you mention that, the first forum I ever signed up on (and was active on) with the username R34GTR was an NFS forum

Quote from sinbad :

Crap signature, though. Could you be more unfriendly if you tried? And did it occur to you that perhaps some people like the XRT, maybe even scawen likes it!! And he's probably not too pleased when LFS fan-boys tell people to go play another game either, but anyway, if you think your signature will help everybody out, you keep it.

edit: welcome Kimmag.

Seems my sense of humour has been taken the wrong way

With the release of patch Y, demo users lost the XRT to gain the new FBM The XRT is still in LFS, just for licenced users

No effect on your account, you will be forgiven of all your sins

Nice to see the team back. I'd be tempted to apply but I probably lack the experience

Quote from aoun :

LOL, you skin the XRT, but you say its crap? I find it funny, not trying 2 pay you out, all good mate .

Nice skin.

When I made the skin I didn't mind it, also I put that in my sig to make the complaining demo-ers feel better

Thanks btw

Nice video jack!

Quote from AlienT. :

Is there a way to delete all my PB's without having to go through them all individually deleting?

Cheers

If you have firefox you can clear them all in one go..

Go into LFSW settings, right at the bottom of the settings tab

Here's a skin I made a while ago and forgot to release

Both 2048 and 1024, 1024 is already on LFSW

Feedback would be nice, only like my 3rd skin

No! You got the FBM instead, which is 3293840982390489023 times better

BTW: You do know the XRG drifts right? It's just harder

Very funny

PATCH Y For the wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin

I even gave myself a new sig

I hold 1 WR!!1111 Wonder how long it will last

Fine with me

Awesome!

Merry Christmas!

Why thank you. Happy Christmas to you too

When it finally arrived (city link drivers are r-tards) I was a happy bunny, I love it, everything is so much nicer to look at, not to mention LFS..

down side is pixel art isnt as easy, which i do a bit of

Quote from XCNuse :

Back when the GTR was being introduced, according to Motor Trend they would be being sold as Infinitis, I don't know if that is still true or not, but like I said, it should be interesting to see what happens when they actually bring the car to the US.

You bring up another interesting point which I never figured out, why on earth was the G35 sold as a skyline? That car is nothing like the Skylines, the GTR is more of a skyline than the G35 period.

Thing is, if you look at the Skyline wikipedia, the first Skylines were not launched as GTR's, they were seen more as a luxury sedan. The first GTR was launched in 1969 and then they stopped again in 1973..

Seems nissan wanted to split up the GTR and Skyline badges, having the GTR as the no-nonsense supercar, and the Skyline as a luxury car with a decent enough engine

Quote from XCNuse :

I think the car is beautiful (especially from the side and the rear).
Once again, it is an amazing peice of technology that no other car comes with, and the funny part is, is that it isn't even all that new to the skyline, it's had all that onboard stuff now for a generation.

I'm still wondering what they will call it here in the states once the first (what is it, 3,000? in the US which were already bought and ship whenever), afterwards it's supposed to be badged as an Infinite here..
I wish they'd just keep the nissan and GTR badge on it.

It is an interesting subject though, Nissan doesn't want to really give it the "Skyline" badge, all you see, everywhere, is GTR, there is no reference to the name Skyline except for other people calling it the next Skyline, but.. is it really the next Skyline?
They give it the codename R35, which goes along with the other skylines, but something clearly happened that no one is really willing to talk about.

Skyline or Not?

Of the top of me head, it will sell everywhere as a Nissan.

And as for the Skyline name, the new G35 thing the G37 is being sold in Japan as a Skyline, and G35's over here are sold as Skyline 350GT's

Edit: from wiki: The 11th generation (V35) Nissan Skyline, introduced in June 2001, was based on Nissan's FM platform, shared with the 350Z. The Nissan Skyline used a front-midship engine (VQ35DE), rear-wheel drive layout (all-wheel drive was available for the sedan) to achieve a 52%/48% weight distribution. The V35 was the first Skyline made for export to the United States. There it was sold under the company's luxury brand, Infiniti, as the Infiniti G35.

It's not a Skyline damnit

I've seen people hit 1:13's, but me personally I'm around 1:16.5

I'm interested as I'll be driving by then

I just finally decided to give the new AI a run, and I must say, WOW, they are so much faster, I couldn't keep up with them on some combos. Excellent work Scawen

Nice one, I've got mine on the 22nd of Jan, can't wait, 'cause as soon as I get it done I'm ready for my practical!
