Hi everyone,
i am hoping there a couple of Gran Turismo fans here that can help me with
a couple of things in GT4!
Can someone tell me that if im on 800 days GT time is there still a chance
of getting the special Black cars?
And then mission 23, slipstreaming with the GT R skylines, how do i catch
the first guy, have tried a lot of things and cant catch him!
WesO
Jigga huh? :screwy:
StiMan

a complete walkthrough lol that should help
Tech_N9ne
On a certain day special black supercars show up in the used car showrooms.
They're supposedly really fast for what you pay for them.
Scolson
the car lot's are on a cycle, so you just have to wait untill the
1394-1400th days, and you have your 2nd chance at getting them.
the GT-R drafting race, you have to get the others to draft you and get
ahead of you, so you can draft them again... i havn't beat it (tried quite
a few times) , but... that's how it's supposed to be done.

What are these black cars?:ohcrap:
Cliffy
all black versions of the mazda 787b race car, nissan r390 gt1 race car,
nissan r92cp race car, and the the toyota gt-one race car.
they grand total for around 8-9 million credits for the 4 of them.
they're used though, so they have miles on them already.
pik_d
Thanx a lot Tech n9ne and pik -d! The walk through was awsome!
WesO
Oh I understand. I think I've come across the R390 before. So they're just
road versions of the race car?
Cliffy
nope, they're all race cars. but if memory serves there are three R390's in
the game, a race, a road, and a black version of the race car.
the black version is cheaper (roughly 1/2 the price, maybe lower), but it
has the normal 20k+ miles on it, so it's a trade off.... heavily in the
favor of you need to buy the 4 black beauties. :laughing:
pik_d
What a mission! I eventually got through that GT R crisis after about 2
hours of trying! You have to do it absolutely perfect otherwise you might
as well just keep on pressing the retry button!
So all you GT4 fans must check out the walkthrough that Tech N9ne
suggested! Helps a LOT!
Pik - d whats the car you love driving the most ?
WesO
it was fairly easy, once you get ahead just go close to the wall. you
should get to him soon. (well if my memory serves me right) oh and you will
have to buy the refreshment thing for the black cars, if you notice it's
harder to steer when you dont do that to all your used cars
ahoo
i like the opera s2000... the GT4 version 350z, the nismo 270R was the 2nd
car i REALLY used alot, very fun...
it was also fun taking the 1954 corvette, (maxing it out) and beating the
C5 z06 with it in the corvette only race. :thumbs:
then there's the m3 gtr... though i havn't driven it that much.
there were also alot of cars that just didnt cut it for me... the iroc-z
camaro, the vw gti, shelby cobra (but then, that's my fault for maxing out
it's HP... i did hit a wall and get like 20ft in the air :mrgreen: ), the
proto motors spirra looked like it would be awesome... it wasn't...
there's still a few cars i havn't checked out that i kindof want to, mostly
due to curiousity, like the rsx-s, and one of the s4/rs4/rs6 group. and
ofcourse try to silver out the IA lisence to get that skyline (prototype of
the one that'll be out in a few years).
pik_d
i had a totally tricked out 300zx that served me will at least a 3rd of the
way through the game. sweet little cars those 300zx's.
bebopin64
heh, what is it... 773hp that it maxes out at? :thumbs:
pik_d
my 6 ae86's have served me well.
here's my list of most used cars: (not in order)
AE86 NA Trueno
AE86 Turbo Trueno
Ae86 Supercharger Levin
FC3S Turbo RX-7
BMW M3 CSL
Honda S800 Race Car
Dodge Charger
Mustang SVT
Aston Martin DB9
Mitsubishi EVOIII
Black Toyota GT-One (aka batmobile)
RX-8 Supercharged
ahoo
My fav car was the amuse s2000, in green. Then my data was corrupt or some
crap and I lost everything. I lost interest after that.
Scolson
I had that problem with GT3, wouldn't load my save data because it was
corrupted. I still have no idea what that means lol
:ohcrap:
Cliffy
i had the same problem with gt2 and gt4, same as you, i've lost interest in
the game now, although, i do still remember quite a bit of nothing about it
cause i started to play it back when it first came out like, early last
year.
i remember starting the game with a VR4 Galant (1988 version, 4G63, 4dr
sedan, rally car really)... then progressing to an S15 Silvia.... after
that it's all pretty fuzzy, but i know i owned a kouki eight six and a
bnr34 at one point... I HAD TO OF!, it's just me! :D
HyundaGuy
Kinda sad but i JUST GOT this game and i just got the delorian. How am i
supposed to make money without doing the Sunday Cup like
2,000,000,000,000,000 times before i can do the Japanese championships?
sandlercd_22
see if you can do any of the japanese car manufacturer events to win
cars... otherwise just leave them for later.
you could also do other races from the beginner hall that you havn't done,
or lisences to win more cars.
pik_d
about the corrupt game files, if the memory card is getting near its limit
gran turismo doesnt seem to save properly anymore and will stay that way
even though you have more space on your memory card after deleting a few
things.
in simpler words it's f***ed
ahoo
So, it's the memory card that's screwed?....GT4 saves fine on mine, it was
just GT3 I had problems with! :thumbs:
Cliffy
yea pretty much, it has happend to my gt2 game a million times back in my
ps days.
ahoo
I cant get my cars to go any faster than 130-140 and win the race. See i
can get enough accel but when im on a straight they catch up and pass me.
Im working on a new car wich is the Mazda you win when you beat the clubman
cup. My FF car is my FTO.
sandlercd_22
Change your gearing.
Scolson
more specifically, make it so the lines on the graph are further apart left
and right. :thumbs:
only downside is that you have to dish out a pretty penny for the full
customize transmission.
pik_d
I already have it in and i used the tuning guide from www.gamefaqs.com and
it worked ok for my FTO but not good enough. It took me 10 tries to beat
the clubman cup because of one race.
sandlercd_22
It helps as a temperary measure, to possition yourself in the rival cars'
slipsteam, this cuts off the 'wind' from battering your car and speeds you
up slightly!
Cliffy
which race gave you trouble?
out of curiousity, what modifications did you make to the FTO (and which
year and model)? i wanna go see if i can beat it with your setup. i never
really used the FTO... ever. but now i've got alot of money, and not much
else to do... :laughing:
edit: ok. i went and beat the seoul with an FTO, worst contenders were a 03
integra type r, and a tvr v8s (i think is what it's called). did this all
on around 280hp, upgraded breaks, 2nd level turbo, upgraded transmission
(and set to auto 7 for a bit more acceleration). how's this compare to how
you did?
oh, and i couldn't beat the blasted opel speedster turbo that shows up from
time to time... so i had to make sure it wasn't in the roster. :(
pik_d
they said the the speedsters are a real tough challenge, my speedster is
tuned to perfection and it is still a 200 point race (the opel speedster
races)
ahoo
I think its a 94 FTO i baught from the used car lot. Its got lvl 3
turbo,nitro everything i could possibly do. all but the weight mods. I want
to get the Mazda up to par because its to the point that i can total rev it
and start with no skip or peeling out. i just want to get to the big dollar
races so i can get a brand new car (minus the 05 Mazda i won) i want to get
a Chevelle for the american races even though i got a Delorian.i couldnt
even come in 5th on the turbo races. im trying to beat those.
sandlercd_22
yea... the speedster race was really hard... did you change tyres? i use'd
R4's, aside from tuning everything else. was 125points a race for me.
pik_d
Yeh i put soft racing tires on it but i still didnt get enough accel and
top speed. Its like i cant have both. IT SUCKS!
sandlercd_22
which race and car are you talking about now?
and dont buy a chevelle. you win it in the hot rod competition. :wink2:
although you need a fairly fast car to win that.
pik_d
..............i knew i was missing something......................
ahoo
hah... how many points is the race now, and did you win?
oh yea, and the 1st modification i do is always the tyres... then maybe
brakes, THEN NAWZZZZZZ!!
er... actually i only have nitrous on like 2 or 3 cars. including the
srt-4.. which tops out at like 247mph or something... :tard: i think just
north of 500hp, and like an 80 shot of nitrious...
pik_d
i'll report on that in a few days
ahoo
Yip, have to agree there, best upgrades are tires, then brakes, and
suspension and Nos! I cant get enough of the Ford GT, 795 HP, difficult to
drive though, but once you get used to it its a rocket!
I do the full Suzuka circuit in 1 min 55.2 sec! What are a couple your lap
times ??
WesO
hmm... 1:52.2 in a mercedes slk touring car with 760hp. :mrgreen:
and 2:25.2 in a corvette grand sport (c4) at 335hp (on the 1st and only
lap, could probably do a few seconds better)
both on suzuka.
pik_d
Slick man ! That s quick !
WesO
can anyone beat 1.16 flat in deep forest?
or do 340 mph?
i never saw this thread before....:laughing:
I like comments:mrgreen:
nighthawk
The normal way around or reverse ?
And what car ? Will try this afternoon and get back here !
WesO
1.16.7 or something in subaru impreza wrx sti spec c with all the good
stuff done
update, somehow i did 1.07 in the viper team oreca racecar with n/a
tuning
-normal way around, :thumbs:
