Then there are other stages when you need to detect if your coolest tank is leaking, try to figure out codes P0430 and P0420, and clean all the foam flakes coming out of the AC vent.
The highlight of the game is the last stage, when you need to replace the IMSB.

What a fun game.
OK, laughed so hard that my coffee came out my nose on that one! The stages you forgot though were choosing which oil to use, and which tires. Oh, and whether it's ok to allow the (animal who shall not be mentioned) to sleep on the soft top.

It appears the game was developed internally at Sony. A 28 man team not counting testers. They don't make games like this anymore haha.

The game came out in 98 and features the 2.5 car only.

I see what you mean about the graphics lol. Wish Gran Turismo had the Stuttgart test track.

It's official: The Boxster is RETRO!
Oh and you save time (and gain points) by replacing the engine mount at the same time as the water pump.

I have GT5 too. That game upsets with with the 20 million max credit limit. I love all the cars and tracks it offers over GT4 and visually looks better, but why cap the credits? I also don't like the fact they didn't upgrade the graphics of the cars brought over from GT4.

Forza 5 is nuts, I was playing the demo while the wife was shopping. It is getting hard to tell the difference between the real car and the video game. Forced feedback is getting pretty good too

I have Porsche Challenge too!

It's the french version, which is funny because the booklet shows different specs than your version (204 hp vs 201)
