its arcade as in those seats with steering wheel you see at game works. they do have it for ps2 i believe but in japanese and you need a mod chip or a japanese playstation

 

It's called Special Stage for PS2. I bought it when it first came out a few years ago. Very fun!. Here is a link:

i think for copyright reasons they cant make it exactly the same. kinda like the recaro's in the evos in the earlier seasons. you can never see the whole word "recaro"
as for the god arm issue i remember the japanese people actually saying "God arm"

 

Oops, gotta say sorry about it, man. As what i said, check out the comic, which is the original.
God's arm and God's foot...
And about the wheel question, i can 100% sure you can distinguish that they are 無限 MF10s...

 

i built a s2k in that game and the basics have been fully upgraded (120k+ pts i think). i love the car! its not horrible, just gotta practice with it more. just dont drive the car in the rain, especially irohazaka uphill. its a great car on akina downhill. the gear ratios are really close, acce is quick, sharp and responsive steering, and has really great cornering abilities. i can only think of 1 other car that can take corners faster, and thats the suzuki capp. other than that, its just a really fun car to drive.

 

where to get cheap initial d dvds?? i already seen up to the third stage, so i need the 4th!

 

i like watching this over and over and over and ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1lPgWAWItw

 

capeta is great

 

Takumi was competitve, but no match for the AP1.

I was hoping that at the end of the series, that Takumi is convinced that he needs to upgrade to an AP1 after witnessing what it can do.

God hands driving techniques goes to demonstrate how well the S2000 grips the corners....each corner against the AE86, the s2000 clings to the inside of the corner with no signs of centripital force pulling it out and how the AE86 is fighting to keep a tight line. Great story and directing to have an outcome like it did so both cars and drivers are represent well. Takumi's AE86 is no match for the s2000 and having God Arm play with him like that kept it interesting.

It's one of my favorite episodes.

 

mmm, as much of a fan as I am of Initial D, I have to say...it's just anime. Though the Japanese are know to be perfectionist, there's always a chance he drew the arm bars too close in the show.

Also, you guys don't think 4th stage ended horribly? Takumi won because his opponent was ill and threw up! coooome on! Where's the dramatic ending?

Anyone hear anything about a stage 5? I read somewhere it was going to be another movie, but probably jsut rumors.
