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.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By tylink720 · Posted

      The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.

      What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
