The easiest way to get the Concept Car is to get all
gold medals on the B-Class license tests. The original red Concept
Car will appear in your garage. When you complete the UK vs. US
race in first place under the "Special Events" menu,
you normally will get an A spec Mazda RX7 LM. However, if you
are lucky you may instead get a dark purple Dodge Concept Car
with a greater horsepower of 560hp.
To get this car easily, when entering the "UK vs. US"
under "Special Events", look under "Starting Lineup".
If any positions one through six contain a Copperhead, race the
event to win a Copperhead. If not, keep entering the race until
you see one. Also, the "FTO LM" is recommended.
Duplicate red Concept Cars
Unlock a Chrysler Dodge red Copperhead Concept Car
in your garage and save the game onto a memory card. Remove the
memory card, start a new game and select "Trade" from
the Home menu. You will be prompted to have a card inserted in
slot two. Do this, wait for the card to finish loading, and select
the Concept Car from the garage. Normally it costs money to buy
a car from this garage, but the Concept Car will cost 0 credits.
You will be asked if you would like another car. Answer "Yes"
and select the Concept Car again. Repeat this to have a maximum
of 100 Concept Cars. Note: The advanced, dark purple Concept Car
will cost 35,000 credits.

Entering a race with a higher horsepower
If your car has a HP over the race's limit, take it
to the test track under max speed and go to settings. You can
remove certain pieces of your car from here to lower the HP.
Fast cars
The fastest car in the game with best the handling
and acceleration is the Mitsubishi 3000GT with all tuning for
930 hp.
The fastest car is the GTO*R. Tune it up it will easily beat all
the other cars.
The fastest car is the Supra RZ. Be careful though, because it
is a FR car and easily spins out.
The car with the most power when fully tuned is the Nissan Skyline
R33 GT-R. With every single upgrade enabled, the car will have
955 HP. If you change the gear ratios, the car will go at speeds
in excess of 600 mph -- however, there is no track long enough
or strait enough in the game to reach that speed.
The purple Concept Car is the fastest car in the game. When properly
tuned, it will beat any car in the game, including the GTO Twin
Turbo and Skylines, by a good ten seconds in a three lap race.
If you have a 4WD or RWD car with at least 700 horsepower and
it has the Full Racing Transmission, you can set individual gear
ratios to make it faster. First, set the final gear to level 35
on a Supra (for example). Set each gear down three sets (for example,
0.332 to 329). Go to the Max Speed Test. You will notice your
car may be able to top out at anywhere from 200 to 250 mph. Remember,
setting the individual gears improves acceleration. Setting the
final gear improves top speed.
The fastest car is the Toyota Supra RZ. It only has 910 hp (when
fully tuned up). However, it can reach 255 mph. Go to the settings
before any race, select the gear ratios and change them as follows:
first: 3.214; second: 1.925; third: 1.302; fourth: 1.000; fifth:
0.752; sixth: 0.580; final: 4.011. The Supra should be able to
do 255 mph however, it is a FR car. For races such as Mega Speed
Cup, the Toyota Supra will definitely be your best choice.
Use the following trick to get the Escudo over 400 kph. First,
make sure you have the Turbo Kit stage 4 on the Escudo (1791 hp).
Try to get super soft tires, as these decrease skidding. Go
into machine test, and on maximum run (full lap). Once done,
find the main options before starting the "Settings"
option. Then use the following settings: Ride height: Front:
75mm, Rear: 75mm; Gear auto setting: Wide; Final gear: 2.200;
Downforce: Front:0.85, Rear 1.80. Note: You must take the corners
carefully as the car's speed decreases the more you turn.
Recommended cars
Some people think that the GTO Twin Turbo is the best
overall car but the used R33Skyline '95 GT-R Vspec has better
speed, acceleration, and slightly better handling.
Although the Skyline has more horsepower, the best overall car
in the game is the used 1995 Mitsubishi GTO MR. Fully upgraded,
it has 930 hp, can reach speeds in excess of 260 mph with a little
tuning, and has a better 4WD system than the Skyline.
The best car in the game is the Mitsubishi GTO LM Edition. It
has the best handling around turns and of course on straight aways.
You can also go into turns very fast if you know what you are
doing, using the brakes to help. Then you can accelerate out of
a turn very fast. The top speed is also great.
The best car in the game is the Mitsubishi Galant (the most expensive
version), if you tune it up to the maximum. With everything, it
goes about 220 mph and has the best handling.
The best car is the GTO Twin Turbo, when it is tuned up to the
max. It can reach 930 hp and travels at a maximum speed of 405
km/h. This will set you back a bit, as it costs 43,000 credits
and you have to buy all four turbo kits. You can buy a used GTO
'92 Twin Turbo for 16,000 to 18,000 credits. This will tune up
to 928 hp and can still reach the speed of a new GTO fully tuned
up.
The best cars in the entire game, if you can drive them correctly,
are the Nissan Nismo Skyline Spec model car (500,000 credits)
and the Toyota Chaser Lm won in the GT Cup.
Best bargain when selling
When selling a car, look around the different car dealerships
to see where you can sell a car for the most money in return.
Note: The red Chrysler Dodge Concept Car cannot be sold to any
manufacturer.
Easy money
Buy a car (the Dodge Viper GTS recommended) and do
not make any tuning adjustments to it. Then, enter the Normal
Car (Commercial Cars) championship. There are five races each
with five laps, and for every race you win you will receive 50,000
credits. Additionally, if you manage to come first in the championship,
you will receive 100,000 credits. Altogether, that makes a total
of 350,000 credits.
If you have 1,000,000 credits, buy a 180SX and enter the Turbo
Car Cup in GT mode. You will win easily, giving you 300,000 credits
and a R33 drag car.
Get a Toyota Road Car, which costs1,000,000 credits. Tune it up
with stage four turbo and race it on the Tuned Turbo Cup on the
Test Course. if you win first place, you will get 50,000 credits
and a car worth 250,000 credits. The next time you win you will
get a car worth18,000 credits, then a car 30,000, find finally
a 250,000 credit car.
Get an A class license and then buy a Dodge Viper. Enter the normal
car championship. For every race you win, you will receive 50,000
credits.
Get a very good car that can beat rally cars (around 400 or more
horsepower) and race the GT World Championships. Race in the series
race. There are ten races in all, and each gives you 10,000 credits
if you can finish them all in first place for a total of 100,000
credits.
Save money
When buying a car with a lot of HP, it is better to
buy a cheap used version of the car. You can upgrade a used car
more than a new one and it saves money.
Duplicate parts
Purchase two identical cars. They may be given different
color schemes if desired. Buy as many parts as desired for the
first car. View the list of fitted parts of the first car from
the garage. Switch to the second car, get inside, and view its
fitted parts list, which should be empty. While remaining in the
second car, enter a spot race. At the qualify options, select
"Machine Setting", then "Change Parts". All
the parts from the first car should be available. Exit the race
and return to the garage. View the list of fitted parts for both
cars to see that all desired parts have been duplicated. Note:
Only items available on the "Change Parts" menu may
be duplicated. This trick will not work on cars that have been
awarded.
Conserve memory card slots
Play the game in arcade mode, exit, then enter simulation
mode and save the game. By doing this, the arcade and simulation
mode information is saved together, cutting the amount of memory
card slots used by half.
Memory card battle with only one card
Enter memory card battle mode. A message will appear
stating that player one is loading and that no memory card was
found for player two. Wait until the information has loaded for
player one, then remove the memory card and insert it into the
second memory card slot. The game will load data from that location
and allow both players to participate in the memory card battle.
