I BOUGHT A NISSAN GLORIA GRAN TURISMO ULTIMA‼️

King-Sized Comfort, a Digital Dash, HICAS Rear Steering, a 270hp VQ30DET up front & an LSD in the back 💨

I LOVE BIG JDM BARGES!!!!! 💞
Thank you everyone for making this possible!! 🤍

@hm_mmmm_ I'm also using this, it's been very reliable for me, honestly wouldn't know what to recommend, you can play about with graphics settings and try rebuild your game on the latest version of the launcher, besides that not sure, all my friends copies have had no visual issues so far

FH6: 💤

Anyway Ferrari 333 SP in Forza Horizon 1

[Shinyodd ✨ @_Shinyodd_]

@hm_mmmm_ What are you using to play it?

[Shinyodd ✨ @_Shinyodd_]

@ffn0__ ReImagined
Supposedly worse performance but better mod support (though I haven't had any performance or crashing issues at all over the past 2 weeks, I rather prefer this one)

[Shinyodd ✨ @_Shinyodd_]

@__junkfox__ you're so right

[Shinyodd ✨ @_Shinyodd_]

@silentflynn I had enquired with the tester about doing this and he suggested that this wasn't enough, but frankly I don't understand why it wouldn't be, I think he was just being daft, I might just gamble on it next year at a different test center with one of these

Gloria goes for MOT tomorrow
(annual roadworthiness test, for non-UK readers)

Wish me luck
They failed her on having the speedo in KPH last year, can't wait to see what bs it'll be this time 😭

@tweetclix most digital speedo cars can even back in the day, but almost none of the JDM ones did which is annoying 😅

@yetiayrshore My car went through 10 years of MOT's in England no problem with the KPH speedo
Failed as soon as I brought it over here

I do have an English mate whos imported bike failed MOT for being in kilometers too, but I can't find many stories of similar experiences outside of NI

@yetiayrshore "Cars first used on or after 1 April 1984 must be fitted with a speedometer capable of displaying speed in both MPH and KM/H"

This just isn't commonly enforced throughout most of the UK, but is known to be a common issue for Import car owners in Northern Ireland for some reason

@RedBSierra aye I just booked whatever I could get, kept checking for over a week and could only get Larne, pain in the hole

[Shinyodd ✨ @_Shinyodd_]

Passed with 0 advisories (GigaChad gif) 🔥

Still told me the sticker solution for the KPH dash isn't good enough lol, but a pass is a pass, and Gloria is still goated 🐐

@helixhyperdrive It seems to be generally less strictly enforced across the rest of the UK than it is in Northern Ireland, you might just get away with it, my car was imported to England in 2014 and never had any issues passing MOT in KPH until I brought it over here in 2025

[Shinyodd ✨ @_Shinyodd_]

@alexcheetah @Kangazeroo We don't use KPH in the UK, though this weird rule seems to only be enforced in Northern Ireland, where we literally have an open border with the south, whos cars DO use KPH and drive on these roads all the time
Yet it's "dangerous" to not have a MPH reading if your car is UK reg

[Shinyodd ✨ @_Shinyodd_]

@Kangazeroo I went ahead and put stickers on it anyway as per their advice, they're quite literally useless and tell you nothing accurate, but they did let it pass, which makes absolutely no sense

So every year I gotta do this bullshit in advance now 😭
Safety first 💪

[Shinyodd ✨ @_Shinyodd_]

@Kangazeroo It really is, I asked what exactly I could do about that, and they said to find MPH gauges for it, I said it's a Japan-only import there aren't any, and they said to just put MPH conversion stickers over the current clocks...

I have no "clocks" it's a fully digital display 😭

Noooo Forza don't listen to the haters...

I speak for all us REAL Forza fans when I say we want Festival Playlist 2 🔥🔥🔥
