bro you should use WDTS cars in AC most realistic car pack, if you need it, i run a team with some mates called StyleBangers we also make our own cars im sure you will see them eventually will we gladly help you show you the rope of AC and i dont mean just drifting i mean setting up servers cars settings etc! we love seeing irl drifters come to AC and we always bring warm welcomes and offer help. dont need to say yes just happy to see you joining the community
If you ever wanna upgrade Cockpit check out an aluminium cockpit I just brought one from Track racer and love it! Other companies make them as well but the Trackrace tr160 was the easiest to get my hand on.
it would be grate content to see you get the maps and cars you actually drive and go to in real life then make videos of you comparing how different it feels from the sim rig to real life and if it helps you since you have the advatage to actully go to these tracks unlike alot of us you can really side by side compare this and i bet alot of us sim racers would wanna hear that feed back hope you hear me out !
tip for your sim rig the nardi wheel gonna be bigger then the steering wheel now and it looks like your handbrake lever is pretty near to it. i guess with the nardi your handbrake will hit the steering wheel^^
I've been keeping tabs on some really cheap gx100's that have been for sale in Japan for the past few months. I checked again today and they all sold shortly after this video was posted. Hmmm...
I really wanna buy a Toyota Chaser but i literallyt dont have any idea where to get started, im not too worried about the spec either. Just need one of those in my driveway
you have a garage full of cars that are in need of being restored and you are out buying kids toys for at home , sometimes i wonder about your determination to fix your cars up
Hi Sam, i would know if in like 2 years it's possible to travel to Japan for drifting and racing and wich budget you have to look for making it possible ? Thanks for your vids, you revive the flame of racing in my heart. Hope you see this comment, jamata
Just be weary if you are not mechanically inclined or have savings for shop work. Not saying it's a *BAD* idea to finance a +25yr old car (depends on specifics) but it *IS* a 25+ year old car. Plastics, rubber bushings, trim + seals, etc all deteriorate over time, wether the car is daily driven or parked in a garage and never driven. Just expect/plan on having to work on it, and possibly (probably) having to wait longer and pay more for your parts. You *CAN* find sorted imports but they're always alot more obviously. Something an aquaintence of mine failed to take into consideration, now he has a really pretty garage ornament and no 2nd reliable daily saving up again... lol
Using a real wheel on a sim rig is nice until you realize you have no buttons to get through the menu and you having to reach around everything to get to your keyboard
Luckily I bought a JZX100 last year! I was meant to drive it through all of Japan and unfortunately it was 2 weeks before covid got bad which got our flights cancelled. Car has been waiting there since. :( I literally got into sim drifting 2 months ago and welded my own rig as well! Anyway, I'm having the greatest time in Assetto with the Rift S as well, how about some tandem sessions?!
@@dbcooper. I will do my best to make some videos, sadly i'm not actually great at vlogging but I'll try making some interesting ones in different ways!
@@butchdeadlift7551 key is is300. Altezza and is300 are not the same. They don't sell is300 in Japan either. However, a gt86 or brz will have what you need.
RORO shipping isn't that bad, just don't leave any electronics in it or they'll get stolen from the car while it sits at the docks either in Japan or US.
Old mate missed out on a few of the differences in gx to jzx, different brakes, single bush rear subframe, smaller diff, tourer s is the same issues but in manual have a w55 not a 154.
for assetto the thing I will recommend the most would be Content manager and CSP (custom shaders patch), it'll quite literally change everything and there are tons of videos on how to set it up. Have fun man
You are definitely going to need the quick release for your steering wheel. Without it, the handbrake will strike the rim of the Nardi wheel. Wherever Japonic goes in the USA, I hope he takes his cars with him. May is being such a good sport because she is going to be all over your gaming rig while you're away!
