March 06, 2009 got performance?
07:00pm by Lijen (Site)
Hey guys,
We know that vDream has been a tad slow (mild understatement) during peak hours these past couple of days. The one thing with trying to push out a bunch of features at once is that its hard to see what the performance implications may be until we get tens of thousands of users on the site.
Rest assured, we are 100% focused on fixing this issue right now. Hang tight!
And thanks for being patient!

There needs to be a way to see the performance of a car that is maxed out before it is bought. that way money isn’t wasted on a car that is poop.

wow, just got a lot faster here and hey they are trying to make this game realistic, i can probably count on one hand the number of users on this site that know the exact weight of their car in real life, i like that you dont know exactly what a car can do until after you buy it and actually id like the performance parts to be the same way, because thats how it is in real life a lot of the time

what is funny is how some parts that is supposed to be light wight light the carbon fiber trunk on the 1993 – 1998 Toyota Supra it adds 25 lbs to the car and in the stats it reads…Change the trunk panel into carbon fiber for weight savings!...what gives with that ..I’m sure thire are other little bugs like this…
- 02:21amby wayne76
-
March 09, 2009
My understanding is that it doesn’t actually add the weight once you install it. Its just an error in the display
- 03:05amby Daniel- VDPD
-
March 09, 2009
I know for a fact it doesnt add weight, I asked the same question back when the supra came out…it does infact reduce weight, and once you add it and see your stats on the car, you will see that it did drop the weight of the car….

Driver- the new GTO failed only in the exterior department. A 400 hp LS2 drivetrain for just over 30k….nah…i don’t think you can top it. The performance modifications are abundant, and the interior puts any other domestic car to shame.
Your turbo comment is slightly confusing though…what exactly did you mean? Also, what year was your cobra? Couldn’t have been late model because they all came supercharged.
The stock cobras were quite pricey, so pound for pound, dollar for dollar, the GTO was a better buy. Slap on the STS turbo kit for 6k and you would smoke anyone…
- 02:38amby Daniel- VDPD

March 13, 2009
I’ll take a 05-06 GTO any day. They are such nice/smooth cars to drive. Why was the NSX aborted? Also, I had previously asked (out of curiosity) if you all had to request permission to use the model names and makes of the vehicles?

You forget that you can take the stock m112 off and put a turbo on instead? Its also not impossible to s/c twin turbo a car either. Heck I have seen twin s/c too. A cobra (03-04) with a smaller pulley and tune can easily hit 400hp.
- 04:44pmby Kale
-
March 13, 2009
I didn’t forget anything, I just know that turbo’d 03-04 cobras are VERY few and far between. Also, I’m not saying that you couldn’t get a cobra to 400hp, but the LS2 is naturally aspirated with those numbers. As far as twin-charging…that kind of stuff is pretty ridiculous and isn’t a viable street option for the average user. The same goes for the twin-supercharger set up.
- 05:08pmby Daniel- VDPD

I’m sure your cobra is wicked fast! I had no doubts about that. My only point was that for the price, the GTO is a stronger option with a much higher level of reliability.
- 05:47pmby Daniel- VDPD

March 13, 2009
the price? I got mine for $36k brand new and still only has 4200 miles on it.

And stock for stock you would get destroyed lol…gto’s run low 14’s to high 13’s stock at track…cobras run mid 12’s stock. Gto’s trap 105-106mph and cobras trap 112-116 stock. Point won…gto’s are slow.

I pretty much agree with you, but to hit 12s on a termi, you gotta have the driver mod. For the “average” person who’s never been to the track and doesn’t know what a 60’ ft. is, they’d be running 13s all day long, IF that! LoL. Not trying to start anything with you, but that’s how it works. BTW, you on Myspace of FB? What Mustang forums do you post on?
Other then the GTO’s weight, what really hurts it is the price of parts! It’s almost a friggin’ grand JUST for a cat back! Yeah I know, it ain’t cheap going fast! But for the average guy out there in the middle income area, it takes a good while longer to save up for parts for a Goat vs. a Mustang/Cobra. Anyway, your termi sounds pretty wicked! But just because you haven’t lost to a GTO or LS powered bowtie doesn’t mean that there isn’t one out there faster then you. Like the old saing goes, “No matter how fast you are, there’s always someone out there who’s faster.” :)

I pretty much agree with you, but to hit 12s on a termi, you gotta have the driver mod. For the “average” person who’s never been to the track and doesn’t know what a 60’ ft. is, they’d be running 13s all day long, IF that! LoL. Not trying to start anything with you, but that’s how it works. BTW, you on Myspace of FB? What Mustang forums do you post on?
Other then the GTO’s weight, what really hurts it is the price of parts! It’s almost a friggin’ grand JUST for a cat back! Yeah I know, it ain’t cheap going fast! But for the average guy out there in the middle income area, it takes a good while longer to save up for parts for a Goat vs. a Mustang/Cobra. Anyway, your termi sounds pretty wicked! But just because you haven’t lost to a GTO or LS powered bowtie doesn’t mean that there isn’t one out there faster then you. Like the old saing goes, “No matter how fast you are, there’s always someone out there who’s faster.” :)

LoL Why are you on supra and LS1tech forums? Just curious :) I’ve got an account on SVTP, but rarely use it. I’m mainly on M1R and LAMC. What do you think about that guy, I believe his name is Zack, who was buying locked Xcals, cracking into them, extracting the tunes and selling them as his own?

Ahhh ok! Didn’t know you had a Supra! Yeah, I lurk certain forums looking for parts to, but not that often. I just picked up an unlocked X-cal about 2 weeks ago, and it looks in near new condition. The guy I bought it from is a well known member on the M1R, and sells a lot of stuff and hasn’t ever had any complaints, so I was confortable buying from him :)

Hey Slave, I don’t know if you’d be interested in checking out another forum, but if you’re interested, check out the vDream Underground…
There are plenty of forums there, and there’s even a Ride Of The Week contest where everyone votes for the best looking ride. You won’t win anything, but you’ll have your ride posted up as the first thing you see when you go to the site :)
