anyone played this game?? i stumbled upon it when i was hiring some games the other day. I was very suprised, i quite enjoyed it. Im really suprised that the developers havent been sued considering the amount of cars they have used without permission.

For those of you who dont know the game, basically its like a cross between gran turismo and nfsu i guess. You start with 15 grand, and buy a car. They have basically every japanese sports car you can think of, as well as some american cars. You then proceed to modify it with money you earn. The game is set on the highways of tokyo, such as wangan etc. You drive around and look for rivals and race them for prize money and thats the game in a brief overview. For those of you who have played it (if anyone) what do you think of it??

personally I had a great time playing the game.. there's a sequel coming out soon (may be out overseas already?) but understandably it doesnt even have half the cars available..

for an idea of just how many cars are in this game....

can't go wrong with a tricked up autech stagea ;-)

but yeah, mad game.. piles and piles of options for modifications..

the driving engine isn't the best.. not very realistic and the graphics are nowhere near up to date.. but its still a lot of fun..

and seriously, don't expect it to be short.. this game is stupidly long.. mostly because of the 'conditions' you have to meet to race certain people

At the moment im using an r34 gtr. typical i know, but i couldnt go past it, lol.

yeah the driving engine in my opinion is very very sub standard, which is the one and only point that holds it back from being a truly awesome game. Ive read some of the guides and stuff for it on the net, its a bloody long game. Ive been playing for ages and havent even scratched the surface yet, haha.

its a pretty old game. a neighbor of mine got a ps2 when it first came out ("only $799!") and he had xtreme racer. ive been meaning to get it, but i keep forgetting. twas a fun game, and even though i havent played it for years, i still rekon its better than the good old ricer NFSU.

Tokyo Extreme Racing Zero was a great game.... played it for hours and hours... cant go past the speed kings car though :D

The newer version is Tokyo Extreme Racing 3..... I have just finished playing that... Took me a few weeks to complete putting in several hours a day.... If you liked Tokyo Extreme Racnig Zero you should defianately get Tokyo Extreme Racing 3.... Its more of the same but better graphics and a few extra bits and pieces... :D

how long has that game been out in AUS? it's been out here for nearly a year now..i bought a copy last holiday season and it was the best 30dollar game i ever bought new =D

have fun playing it man, it gets frustratingly hard later on in the game.

wait until you meet up with Manabu Orido in his MKIV Supra in Osaka.

It isnt out in Australia...Its the American version ( NSTC-U ) which I got brought into the country.... I dont ever think it will be released as an Australian version unfortunately.....

I have basically completed it... except a few wanderers I havent gottne around to doing..... Yeah some of those supras later in the game are damn fast..... If they get past you, you lose :)

oh, that sucks that you guys didn't get a local version.

and yah, the 3 supra's in Nagoya are damn fast..u know, the Knight, Bishop and Rook. pure battles, trying to beat them man..i know i had a hard time winning. even in my 700hp FD...with the scramble boost turned on =P

i found the ultimate car in this game tho. it's the SW20 MR-2 with the naturally aspirated V6 engine swap. i hadn't finished the upgrades package with this car(lightening the chassis, reinforcements, etc.) but i managed to get it up to a 217mph top speed. i would imagine after getting all the mods for it, i'd be able to hit 230mph or maybe even 240mph in it. the car is a monster, it cannot be stopped at the beginning of a race...it just like, winds up and goes, leaving your rival in the dust. no joke, u should try it.

it was better on the dreamcast...

the gfx look so much crappier than on the dreamcast.

its a pain in the arse finishing it too cause it takes forever to be able to race some of those bosses.... ie. u must race in a certain type of car on a certain day and be on a certain part of the track for certain bosses to show... or it has to be a certain colour with certain mods...

other than that its an awesome game :D

Haha...I've only had the game for the past 2 weeks and I can't stop

Always walked passed it at shops and until I couldn't help myself and bought it......

What stages are u guys up to...took me ages to get a R34 and all u guys have already got it..i've got the JAP version..so I dunno if its different but I've played like 200 odd races and I still have plenty to go...I think there's like 500 odd races..cause once you finish the 3 stages first...you get 100000CP...which is like nothing, since everything is sooo ***in expensive and then new teams come up....to top it off there are always other teams which enter the stage for no reason hence adding up to the greater total of races....

In a NUTSHELL, its a very very long game

YOu will never catch up with the 'wanderers" once they blast past you unless they crash or hit the yellow vans, supras are really fast when modded...up to know I still can't beat the stupid RIDOX supra and I can't find it anymore....and yes I agree with the handling handling, its pretty ordinary

i finished the game.

i didn't beat all the wanderers, but i did beat the vast majority of them. some of them, i didn't even see on the highway.

it's a very long game, after you play the 1st round, you get like 1,000,000 CP to spend...then you go back to the 3 stages and unlock the entire highway, and with it, the remaining rivals and more wanderers.

when you finally beat the entire game (all the final bosses in all the cities) you'll get 10million CP to spend. but i'm sure by the time you reach that point, you would've gotten very bored of the game..i know i did.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
