Angry what the @$%# is up GT4

i brought Grand Turismo 4 and was very disappointed that there is NO FB in the game....don't get me wrong...the game is nice but if you got the old school 300 zx in the game why not the legandary 1gen. needles to say the 2nd gen and the 3rd gen are running hard but i still have so much more to unlock.

does anyone have any tips on making more money and unlocking other tracks?
other than the rally for the yota rally car

For unlocking cars/tracks ... there's usually a file that you can open up that has all this information.

best/fastest way to make money. Enter the italian race in europe. (pagani zonda good choice for car) do the 3 races in b-spec mode. Each race is 2 laps so total time in bspec is about 10 mins. The prize car is worth $264k. Keep repeating till desired money is acquired. It's how I got my 787 =)

is there a possibility that an FB could be a prize car or like a car that shows up in the used car showroom? im guessing it wont be a prize car because those can all be found under each companies section, but the ae86 isnt in the toyota section even under the classic cars, but i bought one (just for fun) from the historic used car dealership. and with the dealerships changing all the time, is there a possibility that an FB could show up?

im still hopeful.

Well, if it were in the game, it's rims would be in the "Rim of the day" section. I've been through each rim set, and NO FB's rims are in there. Not 12AT/SE, not plussers.

There IS a set of honeycomb rims that look SHOCKINGLY like SA rims, but they don't have the letters "MA" in front of them, which signifies Mazda.

I'm still hoping that they find it hidden later on (after all, there was a PORSCHE 911, Diablo, and Lancia Stratos in GT3.), but I'm not holding my breath.

They have FC's and FD's... but no FC's in Gran Turismo 4. This makes me sad.

Oh well... I guess I'll run an FC.

Anyone else play Gran Tursimo as addictively as me?

I used to play GT3, actually I played all of them before that too... I was more of a Need For Speed kinda guy though... I kinda just "drifted" away from them for one reason or another

I thought I saw somewhere you could unlock a 1985 Savanna Rx-7? Maybe I heard wrong, I will google it...

1985 : SAVANNA RX-7 GT-Limited (FC)
Why does it say FC next to an 85???? 1985 was an S3/FB!!! Please tell me it is a typo, if GT4 has an FC for 1985 instead of an FB..... Well then I guess its a good thing I didnt buy it....

Nope, no FB. I have 87% complete on it. I don't play it anymore. I went back and started playing GT2 again so I could have an FB to drive. GT4 is an amazing game though.

Its labeled as an '85 because it was released in '85 as an '86 model. It pissed me off too when I found that.

Yeah. It is the turbo 12a version

Oh and it can make more power than the Infini III FC. 433 vs. 390ish iirc.

It's cause in Japan if teh car was made in 85 it's an 85. Unlike in the US where 85 cars are 86 modles...

Yeah the 85 model year was the beginning of the FC in Japan. I know how you feel, my heart punded when I saw 85(never even payed attention to it saying FC) then I was dissapointed when I opened it. Enthusia also has the GT-X Savanna but I hear the physics aren't great
