Loads of Hidden Miatas!

Thanks Maz.....unfortunately, I have a dino for a PC, and it has no USB port, so there's no use of me getting a Sharkport....oh well, maybe one day, but I'll save your suggestion......Thanks!

Just go to a pawn shop and buy a used PC, it just has to have a USB port and windows 95 or later. I'm using the family's old Presario in my room....it works.

For the American Version (NTSC) we don't get the Civic SiR. Not that big of deal, but it's still hidden.

Well, I'll check into it, but I'm sure we have it. I have a yellow Civic 3 door that I bought in GT3, but in that pic the muffler seems to be in the middle...

Yea, we have it. For us it's labled VTi, but the file name has SiR. Unless it's one of the sample cars....

how do I find it, I have several modded Miatas, but not that one, I like it

can I get it without messing up my game? If there's a chance of messing up what I've already done, I'll just forget it. I've done almost 70% of the game normally, and I don't want to lose that. I have a friend with a game shark, if I can do it safely, I will.

Hey Mazkid, here's a strange story of locking up in GT3.
I was at my dad's house 2 weekends ago, the weekend that I bought a sharkport and found both Stratos and the WRC . The problem was that I could only play with them in arcade because my garage would lock up in simulation mode. I was deeply depressed and angry. Why can you drive in arcade, but not simulation mode? At the end of the weekend, I came back to my mom's house and hooked up the ps2, expecting my games to lock up as usual. To my delight, the game played perfectly! I loaded up lots of other hidden cars without any lock ups occuring! I still haven't had my game lock up yet (actually sample 005 causes a semi-lockup - you can't see any cars in your garage if you go by it !) The only reason why this could occur is perhaps the temperature. At my dad's house, the ps2 sits on a wood surface that's in the sun most of the day. So the surface of wood must be ~80 degrees. At my mom's house, I have the ps2 in a small wooden structure that must be ~65 degrees because it's out of the sun. That small change in temperature, I think, caused my GT3 to lock up whenever I loaded new cars. So Mazkid, I recommend moving it to a cooler place if possible. Otherwise, I'm stumped .

What about a PCI card that will add USB ports? They do exist...would that work on an older PC?

Well, I have no place to move my PS2...where it is it does get sorta hot, and I might add a little fan to help get the heat away. I doubt that that's the reason....I thought that it was in the codes. On the newest program, when you go to chance car, and get the car, it doesn't change all the codes. So I guess I'll just have to play around and try stuff. The SR Limited (the green one I took a pic of)works fine, so I'll just have to work on the '89 opt.


And the white one with the roll bar is the SR Limited, the green one is the SR Limited Opt. The regular SR locked my garage, but the opt works fine. If you just try one car, and it locks up, just go back and replace it with a regular car. It's sorta trial and error...when I made the Demio rally, it locked my garage and I went nuts. But then I sat down and replaced the affected cars and it was fine.

Just FYI, I'd be more than happy to host anyone's hybrid images. I'm planning (if I decide to get into hybrids) to create a section of my website devoted to them.
