Hints: Defeating Eddie:
An easy way to defeat Eddie is to run into the back
of his car and continue to stay there. The CPU does not know what
to do in this situation, and spins out at the first turn.
Choose a Nissan Skyline and you should start out in the lead.
Try to maintain it, because you cannot easily get the lead back.
Also, you may not get the lead in the beginning with other cars
[the same with Melissa].
Hints: Glitch: Two for one spoiler:
During Underground mode, Samantha will let you chose
between three spoilers for your car. If you chose the Katana,
whenever you customize a car outside of Underground mode, you
will have both the Katana and Dual GT spoiler.
Hints: Recommended cars:
The stats on the performance bars are not all that
count. The Mazda RX-7 is extremely responsive. Quick movements
and the ability to get yourself out of tight jams is what wins
the race. The Mazda RX-7 responds very quickly and can help you
out a lot with dodging cars and making it through quick S turns.
The RX-7 may not have as good of a turning radius as the Skyline,
but this can be compensated by holding the gas and hiting the
brake at the same time while in a turn. This may bring your speed
down a bit, but it also tightens your turning radius. Use this
tactic when speeding through one of the tunnels with poles in
the middle. Do not be discouraged by the poor start of the RX-7.
This car will make up for it with its phenomenal top speed and
ability to turn quickly. Objects always appear at a set distance
ahead of you. At high speeds this will only give you a small instant
for you to react and for your car to respond to your commands.
The RX-7 responds faster than the Skyline, and therefore gives
you a definite advantage at high speeds. It also turns more tightly
at low speeds. It is also a good tool to use in Drift challenges
because it is a light rear wheel drive. When you go sideways,
the tires will just keep spinning as you drift. There is no need
to use the handbrake with this car in drift mode except to slow
yourself down -- you will continue to accelerate a lot with this
car in drifts. Because drifting does not slow the car down [as
long as you hold the gas], it is easy to go into a wall. There
is no other car that can make it all the way around the 3/4 circle
in a perfect 3/4 circle without losing speed. Do not use stock
tires with the fully souped up RX-7 in drift mode, as the car
is extremely slick on the ground [light rear wheel drive].
The best car to start with is the Mazda MX5. It has a great top
speed, moderate acceleration and awesome handling. The car is
also one of the best cars to continue the game with. Only the
Mazda RX7 and Nissan Skyline are better.
For the drag part, use a Honda S2000. If you have the perfect
shift and the extreme performances, you will be about three or
more seconds ahead of everyone. For drifting, try a Mazda RX-7
because its a good rear wheel drive car. For the rest, try using
a Civic, Skyline, Eclipse, and the Acuras. They have quick response,
but not to the point where you will hit the wall and sometimes
spin out.
The best handling car is the Mazda MX-5. The best car in acceleration
is the Acura RSX. The best top speed car is the Nissan Skyline
R34J. The Volkswagon Golf GTi or the Mitsubishi Lancer are not
recommended starters in Underground mode.
The best car to select when starting a new game is probably the
Neon [until you get farther into the game, some tracks get very
difficult].
Hints: See where you are landing in slow
Hints: Easy style points:
After you unlock the oval drift track, go into 'Quick
Race' and choose that track. Then, race around it using the
handbrake to powerslide into the corners. Depending on how good
you are, you will unlock rewards every time you fill your meter,
which does not take too long.
Go to quick race mode and choose any circuit. Set it to five laps
with maximum cars on. Then, just get near misses in a row to get
a large amount of points. Once your reputation goes up you can
make 20,000 points in one go around.
Press 'Nitrous' at the start of a race to purge your nitrous
for 150 style points.
Unlock the Toyota Celica in split screen/quick race mode and successfully
complete the first tournament in underground mode. Go to 'Customize
Ride' at the main menu and select the Toyota Celica. Select
the 'Performance' option and equip your new engine,
tires and drivetrain. It does not matter what brand package you
choose for them. Return to the menu where you choose from 'Visual',
'Performance', etc. Choose 'Visual', then
equip your vehicle with parts from all of these options [though
putting decals, painting, and placing vinyl on the vehicle is
not necessary]. Do not use any default parts. If your vehicle
does not have a two star reputation rating or more, then you may
have forgotten an option. Note: In the body section, the last
option may be locked; it is not necessary for this trick. Return
to the main menu and select 'Quick Race', then 'Drift
Race'. Select your Celica. Select the square track [should
already be highlighted], and set the difficulty to medium and
lap number to 10. You should be able to easily get 'Great
Drifts', and if you are good enough, you can get 'Superb
Drift' and 'Colossal Drift' ratings occasionally.
You will get a lot of style points for doing these drifts. This
is an easy way to get style points early in the game. Also try
to do drifts around corners in the bonus zone areas rather then
doing drifts throughout the track.
Go to quick race, then select 'Drift' and use the little
square track. Keep doing this to win vinyls, cars like Eddie's
Skyline, the Mystikal car, and more.
Once you have unlocked the orange Acura Type R in Underground
mode, use it in regular quick race and win. Doing this will multiply
your style points by five because this Acura has five reputation
stars. Your style points gauge will fill up quicker, allowing
you to unlock other things faster.
Turn on ramps in drag mode for extra style points.
Use a Nissan Skyline with all the performance upgrades and five
stars. Do Drift Track 6 in quick race mode and you should get
100,000 to 200,000 style points [not drift points].
Go to the quick race menu and select the 'Drift Race'.
Choose a 5-star car, or the highest amount star car available
to you. Then, select Drift Track 1 or 2. Choose ten laps and easy
opponents. After you finish the ten laps of drifting, the style
points will be multiplied by the amount of stars your car has.
You may end up getting from 10,000 points to 100,000 points, depending
how good you are at drifting.
Hints: Barrel roll:
Get any car and tune it to extreme but do not install
the suspension. Then, go to the Drag track 14th And Vine. Go as
fast as you can, and just before you hit the jump at the end turn
to the left so that only one side of your tires touches the ramp.
Note This will require a few attempts.
Hints: No Way Jose race:
Jose will start strong, but then will sometime make
the mistake of trying to take a short-cut during the race. He
drives off track and will allow you to take the lead. He may kick
your tail in the first lap, but this 'shortcut' causes
his downfall. During your race, do not crash and you should defeat
Jose.
Hints: Purge nitrous:
To purge your nitrous and appear to shoot out smoke,
either put your car in neutral, or at the beginning of the race
hit 'Nitrous'.
Hints: Samantha's car:
Keep getting style points until you get all the vinyls,
then fill up the next meter.
Hints: 1988 Nissan Skyline GTR34:
Select underground mode and complete at least the first
80 missions. A recommended car to use is the Acura RSX. You will
then challenge Samantha. Defeat her under the medium difficulty
setting and win the next drag race to unlock the 1998 Nissan Skyline
GTR34.
Hints: Melissa's Nissan 350Z:
Get 2,500,000 style points in quick race mode.
Hints: Easy vinyls:
Go to 'Quick Race' and get over 300,000 on
a drift track to unlock a lot of vinyls.
Go to 'Quick Race' then go to drift. Set ten laps on
your favorite track. Choose your car, then get the most points
and keep restarting. You can also unlock cars by doing this.
Hints: Easier drag wins:
To get to higher gears quicker in drag races, tap L
repeatedly as needed to increase the RPM to the appropriate level
to switch the gear. This also lessens the full force of the nitrous
to lower the chance of burning the engine out.
While drag racing, once you get into fourth gear use your nitrous.
Your meter will shoot up into the red zone. Then, switch gears
and get a perfect shift. You will get more speed when you do this.
You can do this as long as you have nitrous.
Keep tapping 'Nitrous' at the start of the race.
At the beginning of a drag race, hold the gas. Your engine will
not blow. When the race starts, you will get a head start. However,
you will need to shift immediately after the race starts.
When you are about to start the drag race, hold 'Accelerate'
and you should see the speedometer go all the way up. When the
race begins it will over rev. Do not worry about it, you should
be in first place.
When you have all level three performances and unique upgrades,
choose the Mazda RX-7. Play a quick race at 14th and Vine, and
have only perfect shifts and use nitrous since third. You can
get a time less than 21 seconds.
Hints: Use rims that normally will not fit:
Certain cars can only fit so big of a rim. For example,
the Miata can only fit 17s, but if you get a car like the Skyline
put 20s on it and trade it in for the Miata. The Miata will now
have the 20s that the Skyline had in it. Do not try to install
any other rims on your new car because the rims will go back to
the maximum sized allowed.
Hints: Sick Spoiler:
To get this spoiler, you can have any car with the
Duotek unique spoiler with any visual upgrades. Trade your car
for the VW Golf then trade back to the car you had before. You
should have a spoiler that is not part of your options, even after
you have unlocked the level 3 spoilers.
Hints: Kurt's Killa Ride:
Use a Stock Mazda RX-7 and keep trying until you win.
