I have a Subaru WRX STI '05 and I bought and installed engine tuning upgrade part 1, and then tried to buy and install part 2, but it says it must be installed in the correct order... I went all the way back to home and into my tuning options for the car and it says stage 1 is installed... I don't understand? I now have engine tuning upgrade stage 2 and 3 in my items waiting to be used, but it just wont let me install them.

What gives?
 
I had something like this happen to me once with an Elise. I can't remember exactly what I did, but try either rebuying Stage 1, or go into the tuning menu and see if theres an unequip option. I know that for engine tuning there isnt an unequip button but for some reason I recall there being one when it glitched.
 
There is no un equip option for this item, and I can't repurchase it because it says "this car currently has this" or whatever. im completly stuck and am now considering selling this car and starting over.
 
I have the same thing going on with my RM Cappy, except I can't install the engine part 3.
 
Check your items list its possible you have purchased the part but didn't installed it.

Edit: scratch that it looks like you do have it installed, at least its a cheap car.
 
Happened to me to on my Elise as well, happened after I rm'd the car without stage 3. Now it can't take the mod, boo-urns.
 
I put over 300,000 into the car though sigh,racing mods, and every other piece availabe, looks like im going to have to re buy it and supe it up again.

anyone know if the order you install parts has anythign to do with the amount of power you get from the car?
 
Same thing happened to me. I just rebought the car and RMed it right away. Then I did the performance upgrades. Worked nicely.
 
But you cant select parts that can't be uninstalled or removed. My cursor just moves over it to the next item (like my ECU chip)
 
Have you tried buying stage 2 anyway, so it goes on your items list and fitting it from there? If you haven't it's worth a shot. Otherwise it looks like you'll need a new car. You might be able to swap your current one in the market place for something else, so it won't be a complete waste of money.

Happened to me once. Looked like stage 1 was installed, but I hit install stage 1 again, and that cleared it up.

Ah yes. That was what I did, although I couldn't quite remember it. Just mouse over, click it, and install.

Yeah Its pretty important when you intend to race mod a car, always do that first.
I've heard of glitches like this caused by installing parts on a car before race modding it.

I'm fairly certain that the order you install parts has nothing to do with the final HP.
 
ill take the current car off you if youd like.. what would you like in return? ill try and see if i can get it to take the stage 2 tune somehow, if it does ill send it back to you
 
If you have a tuned up car an you race mod it, the items you had installed just get uninstalled. Just go and re-install them.
