yeah, like i said, i just found this list that someone else posted up on another board, and i dont know where they got it, so i dont know how true any of it is, just thought i'd post it up to see
 
Here is the real list. This may be the same thing that IDAFC posted, but this is the TXR01 guide from Game Faqs.

6. SHUTOKOU WANDERERS

There are a total of 50 Wanderers in Shutokou. Because it is impossible for me
to list out the appearance places for the Wanderers, I will simply list them by
their original numbers instead. If someone can tell me the actual English
translations for the places, please email me. I will definitely give you
credits for that.

#260: Appears during even number days (e.g. Day 2, 4, 6...)
#261: Appears during rainy days (as long as it is not sunny)
#262: Appears on Fridays only
#263: Appears after coming out from Pit Area (sorry I really do not know the
English translation of the Pit Area)
#264: Use Subaru cars
#265: Use Toyota MR-S
#266: Use Toyota MR-S, and appears on Wednesdays after defeating #265 (Note: I
found that you can also battle #266 with cars other than MR-S as well)
#267: Appears when you have achieved a 10-win combo
#268: Appears when the unit number of days is 3 or is a multiple of 3 (e.g. Day
3, 13, 23, 133...)
#269: Appears when the number of days is a multiple of 5
#270: When you have come out from ALL Pit Areas in Shutokou (including all the
upper and lower sections; you do not need to complete in a single day, but you
cannot miss out a single one)
#271: Apply the "Rolling Guy" sticker on any part of the car body
#272: Drive around the Kasumi Gaseki section when the internal clock of your
PS2 is 02:00 AM (it is better for you to set the clock of your PS2 to the Japan
time zone for future use).
(Note: Here is what you can do to reach that section easily: On Shutokou map,
press "Up" on your controller once, and choose the second option to choose the
Outer C1 section and begin the race)
#273: Go to Time Attack mode and race the Outer C1 section within 04'05" (that
is the time set by MCS, and make sure your overall time is less than 04'05")
#274: When you have 2 or more cars in your garage
#275: Use the "Na Ne Wa" (R12-C2) license plate on your car (that should be the
12 row, 2 column city when you choose the city name)
#276: Equip license plates from cities R6-C3, R6-C2, R6-C1, or R6-C4 on your
car, and the trip meter ("TRIP") should be at least "300," which means you
should at least travel 30 km
#277: Use a newly bought car
# 278: Will battle after signaling right (i.e. push right on the right analog
stick if you are using the default controller setup). I found that you might
need to come out from a pit stop, signal right, and flash the high beams before
#278 will come into battle.
#279: Use a non-Japanese car when the internal clock of your PS2 is between
21:00 and 23:00 (i.e. 09:00 PM to 11:00 PM). Also, do not use any non-Japanese
cars that are in the "Custom" or "Special" car selections.
#280: Use cars that have been modified inside the "Dress Up" menu (this can
include any color change or stickers)
#281: Appears every 30 days after battling in Shutokou area
#282: Appears on Tuesdays and Fridays only, with the "TRIP" reading less than
"200" (i.e. below 20 km)
#283: Use cars without the rear spoiler (rear spoiler as "Off")
#284: Use "A.P.S." or "Da Ra Ma Ra Su Ma Mi" stickers on your car (preferrably
the "A.P.S." sticker because I might have translated the other one wrong :P)
#285: The total number of wins is 500 or above
#286: Use custom alloy wheels on VIP-type cars
(Note: VIP-type cars are the following ones: JZS161 [Toyota Aristo V300 Vertex
Edition], E124 [Mercedes Benz 500E], GH230 [Mercedes Benz SL500], HY34 [Nissan
Cedric 300VIP], and HY33 [Nissan Gloria Gran Turismo Ultima])
#287: Use a 1980's car
#288: Drive an American car when your PS2 internal clock is after 00:00 (i.e.
after midnight, as its name suggests)
#289: Use a German car (Porsche/Gemballa, Mercedes Benz)
#290: Use an English or Italian car (preferably Lotus cars)
#291: Appears when all the digits for the number of days are the same (e.g. 11,
22, 33, or 111, 222, 333. It does not matter if you have gone pass the 100th
day as long as all the digits are the same)
#292: Use a car that has the engine changed already (which means your total
mileage for that particular car is over 2000 km)
#293: The total mileage of the car is between 1000 and 2000 km
#294: Use wagon cars (Subaru cars are the best)
#295: Use KPGC110 during rainy days (KPGC110 is the same as the old Nissan GT-R
car)
#296: Turn on the emergency lights (press R3) and drive like crazy by hitting
the walls
#297: Use car with the "Wind Stars" stickers
#298: Appears when you have acquired a special B.A.D. name (One method is to
use a Toyota Trueno, a.k.a. AE86 and use a "Rolling Guy" sticker. This will
change the name to "xxx No.0")
#299: Appears after defeating the "Commander" team
#300: Appears after defeated the normal teams in both Nagoya and Hanshin areas
(by normal I mean the regular teams and not those "xxx ARRIVAL" special teams)
#301: Appears after selling several cars
#302: Use license plate from the city "Yokohama", which is R5-C2 for the
Japanese city
#303: Use cars with 4WD transmission (Nissan GT-R R34 or Subaru GDB will work)
#304: Use a Mazda FD (i.e. newer Mazda RX-7) with the "Infinity" sticker
#305: Use a car with everything set to "Normal" (Including the entire engine,
muffler, sticker, wheels, tires upgrades. Everything HAS to be set to "Normal"
or it will never appear)
#306: After defeating #307
#307: After defeating #308
#308: After defeating #309
#309: The license plate is "11-11" (remember to use the "License Plate Trick"
detailed above)
(Note: #309, #308, #307, #306 appear in this order and they come and battle you
after you have defeated the previous one, so do not use the "BOOST" in the
early stages and remember to use a powerful car)


7. Nagoya Wanderers

There are a total of 14 Wanderers in the Nagoya area. So here you go.

#117: Appears on Tuesdays when you go on the Circular section
(Note: Again, to go to that section easily, on Nagoya map, press "Down" once on
your controller, and choose the only option to race in the Circular section)
#118: Use a car that has "Color Change" during rainy days (you can paint the
whole car or just part of a car like a bonnet, but make sure you do NOT use a
custom or special car because you cannot modify the car or apply stickers to
any custom or special cars)
#119: Use license plates with the Japanese character "Ro" (the one on the left
of "Y" at the bottom of the list, which is R6-C4 for the Japanese character
table), and will appear every 10 days. Using the "Ro" character will make your
license plate glow in fluorescent green.
#120: Go into the Pit Area on the bottom right of Circular section 5 times or
more
#121: Use a 1980's Nissan car (older models of Z/Fairlady will be good choices)
#122: Own two exact same cars (one can be just a base model with no
modifications), and use one of them to battle
#123: Use any car with a mileage below 2000 km
#124: Use the lightest car on Fridays (preferably with Cappuccino using the
Level 5 "Weight Down" and NO "Reinforcement". This will keep the Cappuccino
below 600 kg)
#125: Use a Nissan GT-R car and drive close to the area on the leftmost of the
map
(Note: On Nagoya map, press "Up" on your controller 4 times to reach this area,
but you will just need to press "Up" 3 times to start from there and choose the
only option, or you will be travelling in the opposite direction)
#126: Win 100 rivals in Nagoya area
#127: Use a non-turbo car (those with NA or simply no turbo engines) after
defeating #126
#128: Appears every Monday after reaching a battling speed of 300 km/h or above
(this can be hard if you are in earlier stages of the game, but after a Level 7
"Engine" upgrade, this should not be a problem)
#129: Use a FF (front-engine, front-wheel-drive) transmission car and use
manual transmission (use a Mitsubishi FTO will be the best)
#130: After defeating other areas (i.e. after defeating Shutokou and Hanshin)


8. Hanshin Wanderers

The last area is the Hanshin area. This area has 19 Wanderers and they are
easier to defeat then the other two areas (though I struggled once with one of
the Wanderers). Here is the listing.

#142: Will come in for a 2-on-1 battle with #143 after you have defeated #143
by at least half of the energy bar
#143: Appears on weekends (i.e. Saturdays and Sundays)
#144: Appears after defeating #142 and #143
#145: Appears when the last digit of the number of days is "9"
#146: Stop by the rightmost of the Circular section of the map and honk (press
L3). You have to come to a complete stop before you do so, and honk until #146
come to battle you.
(Note: The rightmost of the Circular section is when you are on Hanshin map,
press "Down" on your controller once, and choose the only option to start in
the Circular section)
#147: Go into the Pit Area on the upper left of the Circular section 5 to 10
times
#148: Upgrade the muffler to Level 3 or above
#149: Hide/"Off" the license plate
#150: Continue to have 1 to 3 battles only for several days around this section
and return to garage
#151: Change to an L-type engine (after you have accumulated over 2000 km for
your car and change to those inline engines)
#152: After winning three battles in a row around this section
#153: Battling in the lower Wangan section for 10 consecutive days, and WIN at
least 1 rival for each day (you HAVE to ride in this section for 10 days in a
row, and you cannot lose a single battle within this 10 days or the rival will
not come no matter how many days you have played)
(IMPORTANT: This one causes the most confusion, so I'll explain a bit more: On
Hanshin map, press "Up" on your controller 3 times, choose the first option to
select "lower Wangan" section. You HAVE to be in that section for 10
consecutive days without going to other sections or maps. You also need to WIN
at least 1 rival for each of the 10 consecutive days. If you lose once, the
internal counter will reset and you have to start over again. Because you will
for sure encounter rainy/snowy/foggy days within these 10 days, a better method
is for you to WIN one race for one day, return to garage, save your game
progress, and go back again. Do it for 10 days in row and on the eleventh day
#153 should appear. In this case you do not have to restart the whole sequence
again in case you lose a battle during rainy/snowy/foggy days because you can
always reload from that particular point.)
#154: After defeating the Shutokou area
#155: Go to "Options" and turn the volumes to the MAX, and will appear after
defeating #148
#156: Buy ALL Nissan Z series (there should be 4 to 5 Z cars under the "Nissan"
section, and this is where the Sub Garage comes in handy because you do not
want to dispose of your previous cars), and use the Nissan Z33 (the new
Z/Fairlady) to battle
#157: Have over 100 million (100,000,000) CP (credits/dollars)
#158: Use the license plate from city "Kuma Hon" (license plate city of R17-C3)
with a not-too-high mileage reading (do not go over the 1000 km for the
mileage)
#159: Appears after defeating rivals #118 and #125
#160: Tune the car to the lowest "Ride Height" (-30 mm) after defeating the
team "Low Position"
 
#157: Have over 100 million (100,000,000) CP (credits/dollars)

Uh,
ugh.gif
Looks like I better stop spending money, geez is that even possible w/out cheating? Some of these requirements are starting to piss me off
 
Yeah, you should use the 5 million you get after beating the game to buy the cars that are required to race the wanders, instead of just wasting it on all of the cars that you want.

You win the game.

For those that use a N/A car. On the stage select screen, press and hold Select, and release it once the auto pilot screen show's up. You'll have turbo boost just like a turbo car. :)
 
Hehe...Just got the engine swap option....Now my WRX has 700 ponies and does 229 miles, I think thats more than 370 km/h, but Im to lazy to check it...:mischievous: :cool:
 
im workin on rackin up the miles on my wrx right now, had it goin all day today while i was at work. i only need about 400 more miles i think. im gonna let it run all night, hopefuly by tomorrow i'll be able to do a swap
 
I just set the record on the outer loop in time attack with my GT40. Which means I had to race the MCR Skyline.

Meh, after ending his race 5 seconds after it started by slamming him into a dead-end, the car was MINE!! I haven't used it yet though. :mischievous:

ps: The car was $914,000

pps: (sarcasm) Is my garage broke, or can you guys only fit 5 cars in yours also?
011203-ftw.gif
 
No, 5 cars is the limit. But if you use your sub garage, you can fit up to 20 cars total (5 in normal garage and 15 in sub garage).

Sub garages? Why would they put that in there? Does the sub garage serve any other purpose than to hold more cars?
 
I think my version of the game is messed up, I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem. During the cut scene where Speed Master is being introduced in Tokyo, the game hangs. I believe they are unlocked right after you beat the GT40 (or whatever it is, I can't find out since the game hangs). It has done this three times now for seemingly no reason. If anyone has experienced this and has found a way around it, I would be most appreciative if you would enlighten me. Thanks.
 
am i doing the mileage trick wrong?...i finished a race...then when the screen came up, i opened the disc tray took the game out, and let it run...i see the odometer goin up..and road disapearing...and once im ready to pop the disk back in..it never loads up...have any of you had this problem?

I had that problem before, all I did is when u select your course wait for "NOW LOADING" screen to change then when U see "AUTOPILOT" and your car driving open the disctray. Just leave the disc in with tray open, dont close the tray without disc!!!

Its easier to get a gameshark with the code I posted above U can swap any car engine.(my impreza is 1152kg and 685hp, "80.2kg turbo=best acceleration")

I hope I made it clear, if not sorry Im Polish..hehe
 
Guys try the engine with biggest boost (not biggest hp, thats the most expensive one in turbo engines) and lower your final gear ratio by about 150-200 then lower your 5th & 6th by a bit. U should get about 230 mph( I got 229mph )
 
the V8 turbo swap will give you the biggest top end, the boxer turbo will give you a 50/50 car, and a L6 Turbo will give you the best acceleration. Don't bother with a rotary... ever.
 
Hold on, I have just turned off my PS2, Im gonna turn it on again....BTW I might be wrong with boost(I cant remember anything with PSI or "bar" in the game). Well Im going to check anyway....
BTW can I change mph to kmh in US ver.???
