Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec ItemsGran Turismo 3: A-Spec Tips & HintsMore speed with automatic transmissions When racing with an automatic transmission, hold [R2] and you will get better acceleration. Release when the small red light to change gears flashes or the car will not change gears.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.More speed by tagging If you can catch up to the next car, tag his back bumper and you will be able to pass him. Tagging its bumper will give you an instant boost.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.Better start from pits While you are in the pits and you car is being lifted up to change your tires, press the gas and you will get a better start when drive off the pits.Earn easy Cr 10.000 in beginner league At the start buy a Chrysler PT Cruiser then go to beginner league and to sunday cup you have to win 5 times so you will get Cr 5.000 then buy a turbo stage 1 then teh car will be faster allright then go to sunday cup race the 2nd and the 3rd race be winner of both then at the end of the last race you`ll receive a Toyota car sell him and you have 10.000 credits.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, press (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. Earn Big !!! Get a really good car (e.g. Dodge Viper) and race in the European Championships at the amature level. Win gold in the first four races then save the game. Next exit the fifth race (40pts is enough to win the series) After you exit the fifth race you will be awarded 20,000 credits as well as a new car. One of the cars is a Vertigo, it resells at 300,000 credits. If by chance you do not get the vertigo, reset the game and it will resume where you saved, right after the fourth race.Polyphony's 1&2 You have to win all the endurence races bar the 2 hour ones to get all the polyphony's 1&2.These cars will be unbeatable in tracks with lots of corners as they have the best handling on the game. They are also good on the super speadway and they are o.k on the test circuit.You will be in pole position with these cars!!!Easy money Go to Super Speedway in the Beginner League and keep racing the same level for easy money. Go to the Beginner League and race in NA to get 5,000 credits. If you have a good car, go to the Amateur League and race in NA for 10,000 credits. If you have a very good car, go to the Amateur League and race in GT All-Stars in the test course to get 25,000 credits. Note: Buy the cheapest tires, as they last longer. Get a fast car and race the Speedway in the Final Series Race in the Beginner League to win 10,000 credits.Zoom At the car select screen you can hold the R1 button to zoom in on the available car. If you hold R1 + R2 you will zoom in even further (this will demonstrate the amazing ability of the PS2 to "push" graphics).Good start When startind out, go to the "Car Dealers" and to Mazda in Japan and buy the car on the left of the car the costs 17000 cr. It should cost 16900 cr. Go to Gt Auto and perform an oil change and a car wash to add 5 to 40 horsepower (as you might have already known). Race on the Super Speedway in Sunday Cup in Beginner league. Race on it for at least 10 times. You should have 10850 cr. Add a NA tune up or a turbo kit and race in the other to races. You should get the Sprinter. Sell it. Move on to the next race the Clubman Cup and win those races and keep doing this until you complete all of the Beginner league league. Make sure you have the ia license. Go to the Endurance Races. Race on the Super Speedway corse on Super Speedway 150 miles Cup. Beat it twice.You bwill get a Corvette C5R win the Super Speedway course over and over and after you race it 4 or 6 times you will get the f1 racer. Take it and win the Tokyo R246 and beat it once. You should get a better f1 car. Keep racing with that car and winning the Endurance races. Another good Endurance race is the Seattle one. Beat it 3 times to get the Panoz Esperante, Sell it and keep earning money and buying good cars.Easy race prizes For example, the Tuscan Speed 6 series has 5 races in it. Make sure you have enough of points in the lead so you can quit the last race and still defeat the CPU on points. Race the first four races, then save before going into the fifth race. Enter the fifth (last race), then immediately quit. You can claim your prize. In that series the two prizes are the Griffith 500, or Cerbera Speed 12. If you do not get the desired car, just go to main menu, reload and repeat the previous steps Since the reload will take you back to the beginning of the fifth race, you can keep trying until you get the car you want.Gears and turns Next to the current gear the car is in on the HUD, you will occasionally see a red and sometimes flashing number. This number is indicating what gear you should be in when you make the next turn. Sometimes this is overcompensated by how you have set the gear ratios or the condition of the tires at the time, but for the most part, it is a pretty good indication of the speed you need to be at in order to make the next turn without hitting a wall.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.Burn rubber Get a car with over 300 hp and go to the test course to adjust your settings. Enter the race settings and go to far right setting with the two wrenches. Go to Active Stability Management and TCS Controller and turn them down to 0.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.Get rid of limiter If your car has been upgraded to the maximum, but it will still not go fast, go to Machine Test. When it shows you all the yellow icons, go to "Settings". Note: You must buy the Transmission-Full Racing for this to work. Keep going until you get to "Gear Ratios". Select the one at the very bottom. Change it so that the transmission is wider. Note: Make sure that your car has enough horsepower or it will go even slower.License test lines On the license tests, the dotted line indicates coasting, the blue line indicates acceleration, while the red line indicates that you should brake.Easy gold on license First, try the exam once then race your ghost. Hold [R2] button at the start and your car will not change gear. You can get some extra speed on the opponent when you release the button. Once the car reaches flatline, release [R2] after you get the initial extra speed.
To help get the Super License, at least complete the session, whether you win it or not and make sure your ghost is set to on. If a message appears asking if you want to "Update Ghost?", select "Yes". Next time, try that session. You will be racing a "ghost" car that will copy what you did on your best lap time. Try to defeat the ghost car and keep shaving time off of your laps until you win the test. 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.Tire grip When the tire meter appears in some races, tires lose grip progressively and you must pit. The less money you put into tires, the longer the tire lasts in the race.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.Tuning race cars The race cars you win can be tuned to go faster. Always save the game before tuning or buying a car. If you do not like what you get, just reload.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.Avoid going airborne If you buy the Toyota Supra, Nissan Skyline, or any other car that has the capability of having around 1000 hp, do not remove any weight besides stage one. If you decide to remove weight, do not race the rally races with them, since they tend to get airborne.Exstra HP When u buy or get a new car go to GT auto and change oil, this wil boost your HP upp 10-30 and it only cost 250Cr!Quick and easy HP Once you buy or win a car befroe you race or do any modifications go to GT auto

Win the first 4 rounds then save the game then exit the last one then u have won win the vertigo race car and sell it for 300cr repet this many time soon u are rich:PEasy 350.000Cr FAST Get a fast car and go to the European Championship in the Amateur League. Get first place in the first four races and save the game before you start the fifth race. Start the fifth race. While the cars are revving up, press Start and exit the race. You will have enough points to win the championship, so there is no need to complete the last race. You will win a total of 30,000 credits your first place standing in the first four races, 20,000 credits for winning the championship, and a chance to win the Gillet Vertigo (worth 300,000 credits). If you do not get the Gillet Vertigo when you win, return to the title screen and select "Load game". You will return to the end of the fourth race again. You will now have another chance at the Vertigo. After you eventually get the Vertigo, sell it and go back to the European Championship and repeat the entire process.More...Items!

Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec ItemsGlitchesBerzerker racers If you use the GT3 action replay cheat disk for all the following cheats: maximum points,maximum series points,and 1$ for any certain rare car (I had a 1$ beetle cup car) , during a championship, a berzerk racing opponent (most likely the 5th place car and sometimes both 5th and 4th place cars), enter the race normally. All of a sudden (after 3-5 seconds), go over 2000mph all over the track, spinning wildly and also going off the track flying will always try to attack you. Sometimes when they hit you, they can make you a berzerk car too (for only 15 seconds)! I witnessed it and I got completely shocked (emotionally) when the berzerk racer hit my front end, flinging me about 1/4 mile backwards. Interesting.. Yes, dare to try.. At your own risk."Pinball" championship car entry (action replay gt3 disk) If you have the action replay Gran Turismo 3 cheat disk, use it to unlock a $1 racer plus unlimited money and/or maximum series points, in any championship series, up to two racers (5th, 4th, or both opponents) will be like no person or car can be. At the start they will be normal, after 3-5 seconds, the car(s) will blast to a blurry speed (around 2000mph), forwards backwards, into the air and off the track, and back down and attempt to throw you backwards. I did that and in the American car championship series, while in first place, a Corvette Grand Sport (started in 5th place), came at me without notice and blasted me back about 1/4 mile and then flew off track again and as I continued, kept trying to hit me again. Use this glitch at your own risk, yet if you do, make sure you have the max points code or else you'll never win.6 mph burnouts First pick the very last track (if you are just starting out with the basic tracks; the one on the far right) on 2 player mode. Make sure the tire damage option is turned on. Now pick a class S racing car with racing tires (i used the viper; also a basic starting out car). Now throughout the race drift as much as you can on pavement. Make sure your tires are as ruined as possible. On the second to last left turn, crash into the wall on the right hand side. Now turn right and gas and if the camera isn't showing the broad side of the car as you turn, let off the gas and hit the emergency brake. Without letting the car stop, let off the emergency brake and hit the gas again. You should be doing some hard donuts as the mph only reads 1-10. You can let go of the gas and hit it again and you should be able to keep doing this.Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec Cheats: Options:Site Options:
