Forza Motorsport 4: April Alpinestars Car Pack
 
The next Forza Motorsport 4 car pack will include a 1985 GSL-SE :nod:



1985 Mazda RX-7 GSL-SE – Innovation and affordability combine with this mid-80s rotary masterpiece from Mazda. The GSL-SE introduced the legendary 13B engine, the largest, most powerful RX-7 engine ever developed at the time. Combine that with a light frame and perfect weight distribution and you’ve got a serious performer on your hands.

That looks good!

DreamInRotary 03-27-12 01:47 PM

Fricken sick! I'm playing Forza 3 right now. I got an FC and put the 20B in it with everything available. I couldn't even drive it, speed was like 9.1 and everything else was around the 6 mark. Wouldn't even drive straight. I need to get Forza 4 and get an FB :biggrin:

82transam 03-27-12 02:12 PM

Holy crap they're finally putting a FB in a Forza game?! This is the best news I've heard all day :D

My tag is "pandafb" I can't wait to build my FB's in the game lol, now I can have my whole real world fleet in there - FB, AE86 and GC8 (2 door Impreza)
We're a sad bunch aren't we.... lol

Starfox07 03-28-12 01:44 PM

Sweet revenge for the first gen. Here's why:

All of the other models of RX-7s (except for the RX-8 R3) were modeled for FM1 and have only been updated in a minor way since. So this GSL-SE is modeled soooo much better than the FC and FD.

82transam 03-28-12 02:07 PM

^It shows too, the Rx8-R3 is such a better model in the game than the FC/FD/rx8. Much more detail....

rx7freak13v 03-28-12 03:46 PM

i have been patiently waiting to pick up forza 4, just so limited on funds right now with the new engine build. im hoping for a "NON TURBO a turbo car function" so i can have my na 13b bridgeport rx7 in the game muahahahahahaha! also allow us to build some other sweet ass NA cars, i guess i never got into the boost thing, i prefer mechanical tuning. im glad they used the LHD gsl-se so at least i can build an na 13b in that. not the same still but as close as it gets. i can't wait to pick this up!

82transam 03-29-12 08:09 AM

^Many of the cars in the game allow you to add forced induction so hopefully it will on this. Most also have engine swaps available, so we should be able to add a 13B-REW to it too (since that's what you can swap into the Miata's in the game)

rx7freak13v 04-02-12 02:44 AM

what i meant was, i wan't a non turbo bridgeport fc with itb's in the game but only have a turbo fc and can't non turbo the turbo fc like you can with the 20b swap. i wished you could na the 13b just like you can the 20b and some other forced inducted cars also (like an na skyline bored over to a 3.1 would be boss or even non turbo sw20 mr2 for example)

82transam 04-02-12 08:31 AM

Ah yeah, that would be pretty sweet. I think honestly though there's so many different possibilities that they game designers would never be able to include them all...

Jealous of your setup^ Its getting harder and harder everyday for me to not buy the game. Money is just too tight while I'm still in school for me to justify spending 60 bucks on a game plus another 30 for the DLC pack. Luckily only a month and a half till graduation, then its on FM4 world! Though I think I'm gonna make racing seat similar to ^^^ for FM3 out of my old FD seat.

DreamInRotary 04-02-12 11:38 PM

BAD ASS SETUP aragami, loving it!

I am currently on FM3, gamertag is BenelliSBE
Will be getting FM4 with this DLC, after a one-year Gold subscription for sure as soon as I graduate as well, only a month and a week for me!

82transam 04-03-12 08:10 AM

They made it quite a bit louder than stock, but I'm certainly not complaining lol.

Glazedham42 04-03-12 10:14 AM

I'm stuck at work. Tried to download early this morning but it wasn't available yet. What engine swaps can you do to it? Can you go turbo? Do they have any old school body kits available? Please answer before I die of suspense. :D

82transam 04-03-12 10:20 AM

Unfortunately it's a big fail on the body mods. The only wing available is that generic erector set wing they have for all the cars. I didn't look at the air dam/side skirts yet but I assume its the same there.
You can put the REW in there as well as the 3 rotor from the Furai. It had the option to add force induction although I didn't look to see if it was a turbo or S/C, I'd assume turbo.

I literally played for 2 minutes before I had to leave for work lol. Can't wait to mess around with it more tonight.

Glazedham42 04-03-12 10:33 AM

Well at least we got some decent engine swaps! I was afraid they would leave out the 3 rotor. I'll probably buy 10-12 of them and try different setups. I have still been playing with the 787B like crazy. I am addicted to the sound. It grips like crazy too. You hardly ever have to let off the throttle going into to a long straightaway. It's like the thing is on rails.

lx_machado 04-03-12 12:15 PM

That is a shame, I was hoping for some group c/ IMSA body parts

What class and PI is it?

82transam 04-03-12 01:33 PM

^yeah I was hoping for the IMSA spoiler at the very least. I forget what class it is, will have to check tonight. And like the rest of you I"ll be sure to buy several and mod them all different ways. I have like 3.5 million CR just sitting there lol

lx_machado 04-03-12 03:08 PM

I smell a spec 7/ IT7 race coming up :)

mazdaverx713b 04-03-12 05:25 PM

so, who else downloaded the released today 85 GSL-SE for Forza 4???????? awesome car for the game! idles like its bridgeported and is much louder than stock. better than not having an FB in the game.

lx_machado 04-03-12 10:18 PM

Here is my GSL-SE, all 420HP :nod:

^perfect shot in front of the Mazda sign lol

lx_machado 04-04-12 08:55 AM

I am having a hard time finding a wheel that I like on the car. Also, you should try the car out in A class. Very competitive in that class, the Ferrari's do not stand a chance

I'll try to post some videos up later.

I am so glad the FB has made it!! Any one tell me how I can get the Spirt R? I have every edition of the game and have never got my hands on it..
tag: one320fb

82transam 04-04-12 03:26 PM

The Spirit R is one of their "Unicorn" cars meaning you can only get it through a few pre order specials (which I didn't know about at the time, FML) or through the online auction house when Turn 10 decides to put a few up there. They usually go for millions of credits and they only post them every so often... In other words, you probably won't get one (and neither will I unfortunately) Honestly now that the FB made it into the game, I really don't care about the other stuff lol

85rotarypower 04-04-12 10:23 PM

Got my FB in Forza now, have to say, I am quite unimpressed with the exhaust sound. Its definitely not nearly as "strong" as it should be IMO, and I play on a full 5.1 surround sound with real speakers (not the cheap crap you buy at walmart lol). Also, the body mods are seriously lacking, as has been mentioned. But the car is fun to drive, thats for sure. I have bought 2 so far, one done up like my old 82 was, similar estimated power, tires, wheels, suspension mods and everything. If Forza is any good with the physics engine, which I think its fairly decent, my 82 would have been a great handling car lol.

The other one I got is remaining completely stock. I plan to buy 1 or 2 more yet, one for a full out 20b beast, and another to fit into the A class cars. I may do one more on top of that to do up a drag racer, as I do like to drag race in the game a bit.

For the record, the car is in the D class as stock, with 201 points I think. My "82 lookalike" is in the C class at 320 points and is very competitive with any car in that class. I can see this thing raping anything in the A class likely, handling is so predictable, I love it.

They need to put widebodies in the game.

Siraniko 06-09-12 11:28 AM

Next Forza will be filled with old school cars, currently in the works; my 2 RX-3s were used as models

ben.farnath 07-20-12 04:52 AM

how come it braps like a champ but none of the other rotarys do even with the "bridgeport upgrade"

Yes I am. If you search at Youtube for Forza, the same photographer from Seattle came down to take pix of two RX-3s. He took close to 1,000 pix.

I had to take the autometer monster tach out for him to a video from start up to redline (at standing still). I asked him if you wants to video of revng up to 10K using the autometer but he said no need since there was no hesitation hitting redline :lol:

Although I have no time to play any video games, he gave me a new game and should get a free game also when the new forza come out.
