Initial D seems to have been a pretty big staple in Fanime so far, so why not bring the newest installment to Fanime? I'm fairly sure we've all kept our stockpiles of tokens and ID4 cards ready for SOMETHING.
Just putting it out there. ;3
I support this 100%.
I'm pretty sure they'll have one when Fanime starts.
Watch it cost between $1.25 - $2.00 per game.

And people would still play it.. ;)
That's definitely true.
Does it cost extra to upgrade the Ver. 3 cards to Ver. 4?
Edit: "Players will not be able to transfer data from versions 1 through 3 because the card slot for this game cannot accommodate these cards." - Wikipedia
:(
ID4 cards are thick credit card sized ones, rather than the magnetic paper ones from Ver. 1-3 and Maximum Tune. They do hold a lot more data (3 cars in one rather than one car each card) and a generated avatar where you can "upgrade" the look of the avatar just like upgrading cars. Of course, ID4 cards are much more expensive. And all card data from old Initial D games are now useless in ID4.
well ya its gonna cost some money since the machine cost 36k
I have played IDV4 and I didn't really like it.
I'd much rather play WMMT3 or even IDV3.
I still need to try it out. I might play it at fanime if they bring it.

If you are in the area, just go to any one of the Golfland arcades and they have it.
If we're using SJSU's machines just like we did last year, there won't be Initial D 4 as of this post.
It's still Initial D 3 there. If we use golfland machines, however, it'll be Initial D 4 if we can afford to rent them.

Then say hello to Initial D 3 because it's still stage 3 here at SJSU :)
I was in Reno this weekend, and over at the Peppermill Arcade they had a Initial D Ver. 4 machine. A dollar to play, a dollar to continue, and 4 dollars to buy a card (now that it's turned into a credit card). Graphics were a major overhaul from the previous 3 versions, and now contain real cutscenes and speech during races!
However, I didn't play at the machine at all...I was stuck on the other side, blowing $40-$50 on the Maximum Tune 3 machine (the first time I've played it since...FANIME!). Much more upside since continues were $.75 (but to start it was $1.50) and no fee for me to get a card (since I had my Ver. 2 card from Fanime).
So yeah...
I also SUPPORT THIS 100%... i just need to find my ID card D:
your initial D 3 card won't transfer to initial D 4. Sorry.

And that's the big turn-off with the new version...at least with WMMT, there hasn't been a card change yet within the 3 versions that have come out

She sold it years ago.
I guess someone has been watching too much Tokyo Drift lately.
I dunno if I should LS1 my FC...
I think you think I know nothing of what I'm talking about.
That was supposedly an RB26 in a mustang fastback. In reality it was a bunch of Mustang fastbacks with SR20DET's I believe. Since the RB26 is a drag engine when not in a AWD form, it obviously wasn't going to work well for actually drifting in Tokyo Drift. :)
Stock RB26 in a 1972-1974 Datsun 240z = a mid 11 second car on the 1/4 mile. it can do 10's easy with tuning.
LS6 in your FC now? since the new LS engines are out. Any swap I dream of is legal. :) The work it takes to do a legal LSx swap into a RX7 is not realistic to me for the next 10 years of my life XP

Well my dad is a mechanic and knows lots of Mazda people in the bay area.
I'll just keep it rotary and learn to take care of that... The FC isn't up and on the road... yet.
Well your mazda will be more corvette/ camaro than mazda after you do a legal swap. :)
DUDE!! have him do the swap for you!!! XD save hella on labor. o.o remember to do it with him (naturally) so you can fix it if it breaks. :)

I actually used to want to do a V8 mazda when I was still working. But a skyline powered datsun seems more cheaper in the overall. A 1974 porsche 914 with a STi swap is sexy too. <3
ok gonna sleep.

YEE i have and is hella of alot different from ID4 will say that much =x
im gonna get a 240sx and drop in a rb26. = +10,000$ and or i can get one with a rb25det for 8,700$ still think im gonna do the 26 cause its faster and yes im gonna make it awd some how.
ID4 is different than the previous 3 ID games. Not saying better or worse, but different. I like all of them, ID and WMMT.
ID3 FT cars: EG6, 86T, Evo VII, S2000
ID4 FT cars: EG6, 86T, WRX (Buntamobile)
MT3 820/DG: Z33, Corolla
I'm not a record-holder or anything cuz I usually play with AT (!).
I VASTLY prefer how ID4 handles compared to ID3.
Me an' my Nissan Skyline are workin' our way up~ <3

illegal. :(
240z with the same swap is legal. :)
think about it. ;)
cheaper insurance as well since it's a 34 year old car.
good luck with all wheel drive, I looked up the information on how to do it in a 240z... total waste of time. as for a 240sx, i heard it's easier but it'll probably cost you more than your engine swap to do it. I don't know how it'll sit in a 240sx but the engine location in a 240z throws all of the weight in the front so you have terrible handling if you AWD it. I'd assume a similar problem will come up with a 240sx.
nope not illegal if you know how to reclassify a car as a custom build car then you have to do a couple things with the cat.
no not a 240z a 240sx and it doesnt throw all the weight up front cause the sr20det that the Japaneses model runs is really heavy but the rb26det is quiet light for a I6. and the all wheel drive does not screw with the handling it really does increase . the swap im talking about is one of the most famous and hardest to do in engine swaps (for jdm)
ive seen one swap put out nearly 1.2k RWHP i cant remember the torque but it was also insane.
taken from dmv website:
A smog check certificate completed by a Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) Referee Station. Since custom-built cars do not have a year-of-origin designated by a manufacturer, they must be inspected by a BAR Referee Station instead of a regular smog check facility (call (800) 622-7733 for an appointment).
I hope RB26's can smog. ??? Last I checked they have 0 cats, so you'll need to install like 2-3 to make this thing pass... IIRC.
Why would you want 1.2k whp? I only think of building cars that are DD'able, I hate dyno queens. I hope you're making a car with no more than 500hp~ if you're hoping to drive/ drift it. Even that's excessive but we're talking a 6cylinder, not a I4 where 500 is in the max limit range. I don't want any more than 500 if I make a rb26 240z.
pictures of why 240z > 240sx ;)

I love that you can customize cars at every insert and tune every 3rd insert, meaning full tunings comes sooner. If only I could change my avatar picture easily too.
