Default Gran Turismo

I was feeling bored tonight so I popped Gran Turismo 3 into my ps. after a couple races I started flipping through my garage, And what do I find? Nissan Z concept! Looks like they changed next to nothing making the 350Z. Now I have something to get me through the next few weeks as I wait to be able to buy mine (concept isn't blue, and I can't change the color )

How exactly did you win the 350Z? Today I just put some dirt tires on my GT-R (R34) and I'm using it for rally racing. A lot of fun having 1013 hp on a dirt track!

How in gods name did you get all gold medals on the IB license to unlock it. Those things are SO HARD.

Here are some pics I snapped from the game:









Its almost identicle to the current Z except the exhaust is coming out of the bumper like porsche does. The specs list it as Front wheel drive, im glad they changed that!

Gran Turismo is a great game and getting all golds on any of the top licence tests is near imposible... By the way that FR stands for front engine/rear wheel drive. Its a little different system so they can differentiate between all the drivetrain types with only 2 letters (FF, FR, MR, RR).

The Fairlady Z also appears in Sega Beach Spikers for the Nintendo Game Cube.

They have a Nissan Court and the Z rotates on a Pedistal.

You can also win the Z Concept if you win the GT World Championship of the Amateur League...

I won all golds in the iB licence. Some tests are way easier than others.
The 350Z I won is sunset, not daytona blue, did you win the Z or get it via a cheat? I have mine sooped to 572hp N/A they don't let you bolt on a turbo.

I have every car I want now, and I didn't use ANY cheats either. F1's are awesome fun, so is the 787B and the Escuado. My other fav is the Ford GT40, I love the sound that things makes.
I read online you can get lambo's and stuff if you have one of those game shark things and know the right codes, might try that one day.

I'm at 71.9% game status, I'll get to 100% one day!

No cheating. I do have to admit that I've spent hundreds of hours playing the Gran Turismo series. Apparantly I didn't even notice when I won it, since I just noticed it.

You can win it in one of the races.
Not sure which one though.
I got one too but I never got all golds on the licenses.

FR = Front engine, Rear drive
FF = Front engine, Front drive
MR = Midengine, Rear drive
AWD = All Wheel Drive

in the GT World Championship of the Amateur League win 8 out of the 10 races when you get to the 8th save the game after winning then enter the next race when it start press start and get out of that race do the same for the last race then it will let you pick one out of the four cars, if you did not get the Z then re- load the game it should take you from race 9th race and do it again until you get the z

Nope... that's with the controller pad joysticks ^__^ Just a lot of playing, and adjusting of thumbage, and you get throttle control
