Selecting series awards:
Series awards [i.e., cars] are not purely random. Press
X when a silhouetted car has the large black circle flashing
under it to cause that car to be selected as the award for winning
the series. Timing is crucial, since the large black circle only
appears under a car for less than half a second. If you are too
slow, the next car to get the large black circle will be selected.
You can get unlimited F1 cars by playing endurance races, as you
can win prize cars from those races unlimited times. To select
a prize car, hit X when the black circle is under the
car of your choice.
To get the series car of your choice, just race all the races
in series mode, not single. Save before the last race. Do not
exit the series -- use the save function shown after the race
is done. Then, start and quit the last race. If you have enough
points from previous races you should still win the series, then
continue to where they award the series prize. If you get a car
you do not want, just exit the game, go back to the title screen,
then load. The game will start from the last race you saved at.
Quit the last race then continue onto the series and repeat until
you get the desired car.

Hints: Grand Turismo World Championship
Hints: Use other cars when turning:
You can use other cars as 'turning devices'.
As you know, you have to brake a lot on certain turns. If there
is a car that is also turning directly next to you, put your car
on the side of them and keep driving. If done correctly you will
not have braked [except sometimes for timing], and the other car
may have hit a wall.
Hints: Glitch: Break through track barriers:
As in Gran Turismo 2, it is possible to break
through some barriers. One of the best places to do this is on
the Seattle track. Directly behind the start line [to your rear],
you will notice a sharp corner. Drive straight ahead [not to the
corner behind the start line but to the first turn with traffic
cones], turn completely around, and head for the sharp 90 degree
corner behind the start line. Then, ram directly into the corner
at an angle to break through to the other side. The best car to
do this with is the Escudo PPV. It is also possible to do this
on other tracks with sharp curves. You can use this trick on the
Cote d' Azur track to shave time off your lap record.
Hints: Dodge Viper GTSR Concept:
Get all golds on all eight of the Super License tests.
Hints: More speed by drafting:
The following trick can only be done effectively on
Test Courses and Super Speedway. When in last or behind a distance
from a car, stay on his tail. You will gain speed, even if your
car is going at its maximum. This can be very useful in pulling
out last minute wins.
League]: Prizes:
Race the Gran Turismo All-Stars in the Professional
League to win the Nissan R390 GT1 LM Race car, Toyota GT1 Race
car [TS020], Subaru Impreza Sedan WRX STi [J],and the Nissan Nismo
Skyline GT-R R-Tune [R34,J].
Hints: All Japanese GT Championship [Amateur
Hints: Escudo or GT40: Flying front end:
There is a way to make an Escudo or GT40 front end
lift up. Use the following settings and race your car at the test
track. At about 230 mph the front end should lift up.
Equip the highest NA or Turbo tune-up
Put spring rate to minimum for front and back
Put ride height to minimum for front and back
Put gear's auto setting to widest, and final to 3.000
Put front down force to minimum and back to maximum
Set ASM and TCS to level 0.
Get a car with over 1,000 hp [such as the Escudo, GT-One Race
Car or R390 GT1 Race Car]. Equip the highest stage of turbine
kit or NA tune possible Decrease the spring rate to the smallest
number for both front and rear. Decrease the ride height to the
smallest number both front and rear. Set the gear ratio's auto
setting all the way up and put the final gear to 3.000. Decrease
the front downforce to smallest number and increase the rear to
highest number. Set ASM to level 0. Set TCS to level 0. Go to
the Test Course and at about 230 mph your car will fly. Its speed
will get to 300 mph and higher.
Hints: Not finishing Machine Test Run:
When you select Machine Test, go to maximum speed.
Chose any desired car and when you get to the race screen, go
to race. If your car never gets to its maximum speed by the end
of the session, just turn around 360 degrees. You should now be
heading the other way on the track. The game will not stop when
you get to the rendezvous point. When your car does go full speed,
you can just turn the car around and finish or exit. Your speed
will still be recorded.
Hints: Tuning drive trains:
To get the most speed out of your car you have to get
the most horses, however sometimes the transmission will keep
you from getting to use all of it. Buy the Full Customization
transmission. Now go to the settings either right before a race
or at home. Change the settings of the last part of your transmission
[the bar that has Sports on the left and Wide on the right] to
all the way left. This will move your individual gear ratios.
Next, go to the 'Final' bar and move it as far right
as it will go. Then, go to the next bar up and move it as far
left as it will go. Do that to the remaining bars. When racing
you will notice that your gears will shift extremely quickly,
however, the bad starts will lead to every single horsepower being
used. This is really only needed in high-powered cars that exceed
650 horses and should not be used in short races with competitors
having equal power to your own.
Hints: F 090/S Formula 1 car:
When first starting the game, buy a Mazda Miata that
is worth 16,900 credits. Then, put in a racing chip and do an
oil change. Next,try to raise about 38,000 to 48,000 credits.
Then, buy a Mustang SVT Cobra and tune it to the max. Note: Do
not do an oil change, as it will decrease your horsepower. Then,
go to Super Speedway 150 miles in the Endurance races. When you
win, you will be able to choose one of four prize cars. Do not
touch anything to win the Corvette CO5. Then, tune that car and
race at the Grand Valley 300 race. When you win, once again do
not touch anything at the prize car screen to get the F 090/s
Formula 1 car.
Hints: Subaru Impreza LM Race Car:
Win Grand Valley Speedway endurance race [300 km].
Hints: RUF 6400s: Easy arcade mode wins:
In simulation mode, buy a RUF 3400s and fully upgrade
it, except do not buy the racing chip, NA Tune Up, Turbo, and
Intercooler. Go to arcade mode and race.
Hints: Spoon Sports S2000 Race Car:
Win the Stars & Stripes Grand Championship in the
Amateur League.
Easy win:
The Super Speedway 150 Miles endurance race can be
won without being in control or the car. Use a rubber band to
hold X [accelerate] and Analog-stick to the Right
[slightly]. You should use a semi-fast car, but the other drivers
will be going into the pit while you will not -- time will be
made up in this way. Having the Analog-stick in that direction
prevents you from going into the pit and never exiting. This is
an easy way to make 200,000 credits. You will win a very expensive
car, one of which is the F090, which is one of the best cars in
the game.
Get the Escudo and ride the walls around the turns for the entire
race. It is possible to finish the race in 45 minutes by doing
this.
Hints: Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII GSR:
Win the 4WD Challenge in the Amateur League.
Hints: Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII Rally
Hints: RUF RGT:

Hints: Nissan Skyline GT-R R-Tune:
Go to the Endurance Super Speedway. Use the Mazda 787B.
This takes about 54 minutes to complete. You should get the Skyline
GT-R R-Tune. If not, you can also get the F090/S , Falcon XR8
Race Car , Lupo Race [Cup] Car, and Corvette C5R.
Hints: Escudo Pikes Peak: Wheelie:
Go to Run and Setting in Home in simulation mode. Set
the Spring Rate-Front-4.0, Back-4.0; Ride Height-Front-75.0, Back-75.0;
Shock Bound-Front-Level 7, Back-Level 7; Shock Rebound-Front-Level
7, Back-Level 7; Camber Angle-Front-Level 0, Back-Level 0; Toe
Angle-Front-Level 0, Back-Level 0; Brake Balance-Front-Level 0,
Back-Level 0; Limited Slip [all three]-Front-Level 5, Back-Level
5; Gear Ratio Auto Setting-48; Final Gear-3.012, all gears-all
the way down; Downorce-Front-.38, Back-1.08; ASM-0; TCS-0; TCD-10%.
Hints: Saving money:
Do not waste money on upgrading the first few cars
you have in the game. Instead, practice being a better driver.
Wait until you win a car with some real potential until you upgrade.
For example, start out with a Mazda Miata, but do not upgrade.
Use it to win a Mazda RX-7 Effini 3, then upgrade.
Hints: Honda Civic SiR-II:
Win the Type R Meeting in the Beginner League.
Car:
Win the Evolution Meeting in the Amateur League.
Hints: Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI Rally
Hints: Celica TRD Sports M:
Win the FF Challenge in the Amateur League.
Hints: Controlling MR tire grip:
When you tune a MR [Mid Engine/RWD] car for absolute
power, the rear tires heat up very quickly. Put a less expensive
tread on the rear tires [for example, medium on the rear and super-soft
on the front] for better grip and control, and less tire wear
in a long race.
Easy wins:
Win rally mode and get the Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak
Version. Upgrade it as much as possible, then go to the Professional
league. Select the Gran Turismo All Stars, and the Test Course.
Set your downforce as low as possible front and back. Set your
auto final to widest, and your final to 2.260. Keep the gas button
held and you are free to do whatever while you earn 50,000 credits
for each race.
Hints: Mazda Miata Roadster RS:
Win the Spider/Roadster Cup in the Beginner League.
Hints: More horsepower:
To make your car gain about 25 to 150 hp, take it to
the test track and do a Max Speed Test. Keep it floored the entire
time. After a couple of times, stop, change your oil, and check
your new hp.
When buying or acquiring a new car that you want to race, run
it at one of the tracks under 'Run and Setting' several
times after adding upgrades, instead of entering it immediately
into a race. The engine needs to be broken in before racing. Your
horsepower will improve, depending on your upgrades.
If you own a car thats worth enough to change the high speed,
go to settings at the Test Track. Go to the transmission section,
move down to the gear ratio and change it as wide as possible
by going to the bottom and bringing the bar to wide instead of
sport.
Hints: Volkswagen New Beetle 2.0:
Start with the Volkswagen New Beetle 2.0. It handles
well enough and has enough speed to win the Clubman, the Sunday,
the FF in beginner and amateur, and after the third tune up and
a little suspension tuning, all the Beetle Cup cars in the Beetle
Series races.
Hints: F/688:
This car is strong in everything.
Hints: Easy money with memory card:
Two memory cards are required for this trick. After
you have earned about 200,000 credits, purchase a car, such as
the Mitsubishi 3000 GT. Upgrade it up to the max. This will leave
you almost broke. Go home and save this car memory slot two, then
return to the title screen and load your last game from memory
slot one. This will give you your money back, and you can now
go home and trade from memory slot two. That car that you just
spent all those credits on will only cost you retail price.
Two memory cards are required for this trick. Whenever you buy
a new car, you may notice that the value is much less than what
you bought it for. Save your game to both cards, then, make sure
you have enough credits to buy whatever car you want to get rid
of at the dealership price. Go to the home garage and go to trade.
You can then sell your car to yourself at full value. Then, if
you want to do it again, save the game in memory card one but
not on card two. You will then get back whatever money your card
two lost when buying the car. This can sometimes triple your profits
over what you would get by selling them back to the dealer at
depreciated value.
Two memory cards are required for this trick. Start a new game
or resume a current game. Save the data to the second memory card.
Then, go to trade and take all of the car[s] from the second card
and continue saving on it. Once satisfied with the amount of cars
you have on your regular game, sell the extra cars to get some
quick money. This can be repeated as needed.
Hints: Wheelie:
Note: This trick requires a car with 230 hp or more.
Go to Seattle Curcuit 2 and drive over to the part of the road
which goes down. Accelerate fully all the way to the last drop.
Release the gas. When you are about to go down, slam on the gas.
You should do a wheelie.
Hints: Mazda MX-5 Miata [80's]: Good start:
Buy the Mazda MX-5 Miata [80's] as your first car,
or get all Golds in the B license to get the Mazda Roadster MX-5
[Miata] as an award. Use this car to easily win the Sunday Cup.
You will win the Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT-Apex. Sell it for extra
money. After the Sunday Cup you can try the Clubman Cup. If you
have any troubles with the Clubman Cup go back to the Sunday Cup
and race until you have enough money to buy yourself the second
turbo kit. After the Clubman Cup you can sell the Mazda [MX-5]
Eunos Roadster that was given as an award. After that you can
use your Miata to win the 80's Race. Always keep upgrading your
Miata along the way. If you keep going you should try to go or
the races that can result in a lot of prize money, and buy a good
enough car to win the big races.
Hints: Panoz Esperante:
One of the best cars to start the game with is the
Panoz Esperante. In arcade mode, there is a time attack mode that
is basically like the license tests, where you are required to
set the fastest times. If you complete this mode, it will give
you the Panoz Esperante in you simulation garage. You can now
get your licenses easily and dominate.
Hints: Arcade mode tracks:
To unlock the arcade mode tracks, simply complete each
area [A, B, C, D, and E].

Use the following trick to get all four bonus cars
and all colors after racing a series only one time. Two memory
cards and enough money to buy all the cars at the resale price
are required. Save to memory card one at the end of the second-to-last
race with enough points to skip the last race. Skip the last race.

Reload card one, skip the last race and choose the desired car.
Go to trade without saving in the home menu. Load card two in
the trade menu. Buy the previously chosen car, then overwrite
and save to card two. Reload card one, skip the last race, choose
the next car, then go to trade again. Load card two in trade.
Next, buy all previously chosen cars, overwrite, and save to card
two again. Repeat until all desired cars and colors have been
acquired from only one series.
Hints: Acura Intregra Type R: Easy money:
Buy the Acura Intregra Type R. Upgrade it a bit so
that you can compete with the cars in the Type R meeting. Win
the series to get a lot of money. The car that you win [Acura
RSX Type S] can be sold for 7,500 credits. Note: This car cannot
be bought in the game so you may want to keep one.
Hints: Glitch: Super speed on test course:
Use the following trick to go over 1400 mph on test
course. Make sure your GT-One race car has all the upgrades, the
stage 4 turbo kit, super-soft tires, and a fresh oil change. Next,
go into the vehicle settings for the car and make the following
changes: Spring rate 4.0 Front/ 4.0 Rear, Ride Height 55 Front/
55 Rear, Shock Bound/Rebound 1 Front/ 1 Rear, Camber/Toe Angles
0 Front/ 0 Rear, Brake Balance 9 Front/ 9 Rear, Limited-Slip Initial
Torque 60, Limited-Slip Accel 60, Limited-Slip Decel 20, Downforce
.45 Front/ 1.25 Rear, ASM 10, TCS 5. Here is the important part
-- go to the Gear Ratio Settings screen and change the final gear
to 5.499. Change the Auto Settings level to 47 and then to level
48. Do not change the settings for the individual gears [i.e.,
1st through 6th] -- they should now be set to specific levels.
Now, change the final gear back to 2.900, and do not forget to
accept the changes. Go to the Max Speed Test. Make sure to do
a 180 [turn completely around] to go the opposite direction around
the track. Otherwise, you will be stopped and given your max speed
at the other end of the track. As you go around the first and
second corner, stay in third gear by holding R2 [if using
an automatic transmission]. As soon as you come off the second
corner heading down the straight-a-away, release R2 after
you reach a speed of 243 mph. The front end of the GT-One should
lift up and you will start to go very fast. It is possible to
set a max speed record of 1455 mph or better by changing the time
at which you release R2.
Alternately, use the following settings with the Toyota GT-1 Race
Car [TSO20] to get over 1250 mph on the max speed test. Use a
manual transmission for best results. Spring rate Front- 0%, Rear-
0%,Ride height F- 0%, R- 0%, Shock bound F 7, R 7, Shock rebound
F- 7, R- 7, Camber 0, Toe 0, Stabilizers 0%, Limited Slip initial
torque F 0, R 5, Limited Slip Acceleration F 0, R 5, Limited Slip
Deceleration F 0, R 5, Gears 1st- 2.572, 2nd- 1.613, 3rd- 1.125,
4th- 0.829, 5th- 0.646, 6th- 0.489, Final- 3.964, Downforce Front-
0%, Downforce- Rear- 100%, ASM 0, TCS 0.
You can attain a speed of over 5000 mph on the test course if
you do the following. Set up the Toyota GT1 race car for the 1300
mph glitch in the game. Then, get a friend and set up the arcade
mode for at least 15 laps and choose the test course. Have both
players choose the GT1 race car which is set up for the top speed
glitch. Have one person get on the bumper of the other person's
car and start going around the test course drafting the entire
way. You must make sure you keep drafting, because you will slowly
start to carry more and more speed out of the corners until you
reach a point where you can stay in sixth gear coming out of the
corner. Once you have perfected this, the cars are able to attain
over 5000 mph by this drafting method. Note: The game will sometimes
lock up because it cannot handle the figures the cars start to
put up.
Hints: Glitch: See through walls:
At the Super Speedway, on any of the turns, scrape
the car onto the turns without braking. Look on the side of the
bleachers, and you will see through them.
Hints: Nismo GT-R LM Roadcar:
Win the Seattle Endurance Race. It is the top left

Win the Like the Wind in the Professional League. Alternately,
complete 75% of the game.
Hints: Toyota Celica SS-II:

in the Beginner League.
Hints: Aston Martin Vanquish:
Win the British GT Car Cup in the Professional League.
Hints: Ford Focus Rally Car:
Win the Smokey Mountain Rally in Rally.
Hints: Quick start:
At the beginning of a race [except for Endurance, Super
License, and others without a countdown], do not rev your engine
by holding X. Instead, wait until the countdown reaches
'1'. By the time it says 'Go', you will have
no white smoke from your wheels, no wheelspin, and a boost of
about 0.2 seconds, which may make the difference in earning the
Gold Trophy in a license test, or a quick head start as the CPU
cars do not do this.
Hints: SS-5 Wet Route: Easy win:
Pace along side of the car in the SS-5 Wet Route track.
Just before you drive by the pit stop, push him over so that he
will run into the end of the wall that divides the pitstop and
track. If done correctly, you will stop the car from doing anything.
He well be stuck there for the rest of the race.
Hints: Super Speedway 150 Miles [Endurance]:
Hints: Recommended tires:
For any normal non-endurance race, select super soft
race tires. They do not wear out on the track unless you see a
tire meter on your screen. For endurance races, use the cheapest
race tires. Though the screen says they have the least traction
they will have enough after about two laps to keep you going quickly.
Despite being the cheapest, they are in fact race tires and work
much better than any street tire. You will benefit more by getting
extra laps on a set of cheap tires then getting a few faster laps
on the expensive tires, which will need more frequent changes.
This will also save money.
Hints: Big air:
Take a fast car that can go at least 230 mph on the
Test Course. Start the race and go around the first turn, trying
to pick up speed. As you get to the second turn, stay to the inside
until the yellow line pops up. At this time, keep the gas floored
and make a hard right until you hit the wall. If done correctly,
your car should go flying up in the air.
To get a lot of air and do a 360, buy a fast car such as a souped
up Skyline, with about 1040 hp. Go to the Test Course and floor
it all the way around the first turn. Floor it to the second.
When the railing appears on the second turn at the top of the
banking hit Circle for the emergency brake and turn right.
The car will get massive air, do a 360, and land back on the road
going about 140 or 150 mph. Note. You must be going about 220mph
around the turn to do this.
Hints: Better cornering control:
Tap the emergency brake [default is Circle]
just before a sharp turn and let the car go into a sort of neutral
gear state. This will keep the tires from spinning due to downshifting.
Using the momentum of the car and a little braking, you should
make it through a tight turn without getting turned around or
fishtailing most of the time. This is especially helpful on the
Laguna Seca Track in the 'corkscrew' turns. This turning
technique is also helpful sometimes in a rally race. It can usually
induce a slide for tight cornering.
If you want precise cornering and acceleration, go to options
menu and set the gas to the Right Analog-stick going Up
and Down. If you use the buttons too much, they just wear
out. Never use automatic transmission; manual is way better if
you know what you are doing.
Hints: Polophony Racing Car:
Finish an endurance race, a Professional League race
[one of the races is called the Dream Car Championship], or get
100% of the game completed A good car to use is the Nissan R390
GT1 LM Edition. You can put a turbo stage 3 on it to boost the
car to 1180HP.
Hints: Honda NSX Type S Zero:
Win the MR Challenge in the Amateur League.
Hints: F687/S:
To acquire this car, complete the Tokyo R246 Endurance
Race. This car may also be chosen at the Endurance Winner screen.
It has excellent turning, top speed [230], acceleration; and average
braking.
