UPDATES/REVISION HISTORY ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 1.0 (09/03/00) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Re-formatted the guide once more, since when I did it last time, I used "replace", and replaced all of the "ps"'s with "HP". Well, that also changed any words with "ps" in them (laps, ups, tips...), and made them look like this: Laps = LaHP. I had to fix this, and now everything is spick and span. Thanks to for telling me about this! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.9 (08/31/00) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Just re-formatted the guide, and replaced the "PS" with "HP" to match the US version of the game. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.8 (04/19/00) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Added the "Reader Tip" Section ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.75 (03/20/00) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Updated Section 10: Pocket Homo: VMU Mini-Game ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.7 (03/19/00) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Big update! • Added some more questions to the FAQ section • Added a new section: 7.2: Race Strategy Guide • Added a new section: 7.3: Tracks • Added a new section: 10: Pocket Homo: VMU Mini-Game ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.61 (03/10/00) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Added Wolf in the credits section, since I used parts of his Car Prize list in this FAQ.

If you see anything here that you might want to see in Upcoming Versions of this FAQ, then e-mail me telling me which ideas or things that you would like to see at: thebeefycow@hotmail.com . If I get enough requests for some of these things, then I'll add them! Stuff to Add: -------------- • Possibly a Walkthrough section, just like the one that I have in my GT 2 FAQ • A Track Strategies Section, along with some maps of the tracks • A VMU Mini-Game Section, with a Translation guide to help all those other non-Japanese gamers out with the VMU Mini-Games. If you speak Japanese or understand it, could you please send me the translations of what everything means in the VMU Games (the text), and I'll give you FULL CREDIT for everything you send in, plus you'll be helping out LOTS of people!!! • Some more Questions for the FAQ section • A Game Translation Mode, again, which translates what some or all of the Japanese text in the game. Especially in the Tuning modes of Sega GT. Hopefully someone out there is listening to my plea, and will send in some translations of the Japanese text... • A Secrets section, detailing any secrets that may be hidden within Sega GT • A complete Car List. The one that I have know is just a list of all the cars you can buy and win. I'm not sure if there are anymore cars in the game other that those. • A Tuning Guide • Etc. info, like smaller things in the game that should be pointed out. E-mail me if you would like to see any of these ideas implemented, or if you can help me out with any of them. Thanks! ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 4.

FR: FR (front engine, rear-wheel drive) cars are usually prone to over-steering, and can cause some frustration. These types of cars usually have the fastest acceleration and top speeds out of all the types of cars. FF: These cars have their engine located in the front instead of the rear, and are front-wheel drive. FF cars are usually prone to under-steering, which can be difficult to manuever at higher speeds. MR: Mid-Rear cars (Mid engine, rear-wheel drive), are almost exactly like FR cars. The engine is located in the mid section, while the back two wheels propell the vehicle. This causes over-steering, a problem that will cause your car to over-take the turns, causing you to spin out wildly. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- HOW TO TAKE TURNS: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Terminology: ------------ a: Your Car: First Point b: Your Car: Second Point c: Your Car: Third Point d: Your Car: Fourth Point e: Your Car: Fifth Point Basic 90 degree Turns: ____________________c (Exit Turn) / | | | b___________ | | | | | | | | | | |a | | | | | | | | | ________________________ / | b d | c | __________________ | | | | | | | | | | |a | | | | | | | | | _______________________________ / c / / d (Exit Turn) | b ______________________ | / | | | | | | | | |a | | | | | | | Basic 180 Degree Turns: ____________ / \ | \ | \ | \ | b___ \ | | \ \ | | \ \ |a | \ \ | | \ c \ | | | (Exit Turn) | | | | | | | | ___________ / \ / \ / \ / _b_ \ | / \ | | / \ | |a | | c| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | d | | | | | | | | | Basic S-Turns: (Exit Turn) | d| | | \ \ \ \ / / ____________/ / / c / / / | / | b___________/ | / | | | | |a | | (Enter Turn) ______________ a \ \ \ \ __________ \ b \ \ \ | | |c | | | | | | \ | d \____________ \ \ \ \____________e_(Exit Turn) -=-=-=-=-=-=- EVENT RACES: -=-=-=-=-=-=- Event Races are normal races in which you can compete for cash and cars. You may use any car you wish to use, as long as it follows the rules for the races (i.e- N/A only races only allow N/A cars). -------------- Terminology: -------------- Novice Car Cups: Only allow cars that have been bought that are at the allowed class level, and are NOT tuned up. Original Car Cups: Only allow cars that have been created in the Factory, at the allowed class level, and engine tuned up IS allowed. Open Races: Anything goes. You can have any class car, tune ups, and they can be either bought or created in the Factory. N/A Races: Only allow cars that are N/A, not super charged or turbo. Class Cups: Only allowed to use cars from that specific class. McDonald's Open Race -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- For this race, I just used a used Toyota Supra Twin Turbo (JZA70), and then tuned it up some with a sports level Turbo kit. After I won this race, I just kept on racing on it over and over again until I had enough money for a Mitsubishi GTO Twin Turbo. Once you get this car, then you should use it for the rest of the Open races. Megane Super Open Race -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- For the Megane Super Open, I used my GTO Twin Turbo to easily win. I suggest that you race this Race over and over again to win some extra cash and some extra cars, then sell them for easy money. Use any money you have to fully tune up your GTO Twin Turbo's engine, then it's drivetrain (like the transmission and clutch). ANA Open Race -=-=-=-=-=-=-=- The ANA Open Race is the easiest of the three Open races, since it's on the Sky Peak Track. Once again, use your GTO Twin Turbo to kill the competition, and earn some more easy cash. By this time, you should have three sponsers--McDonalds, Megane, and ANA. Use this to your advantage, and race this easy race over and over again to rack up your money total. Wonda Novice Car Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Still haven't completed this Cup yet. Lawson Original Car Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- I went to the Carrozeria, and made a car at the factory. It was a 1000cc, 4WD, rear engine, Favor RS, with N/A engine. It was pretty easy to win, but not after I tuned up the engine and suspension a bit. N/A Small Car Race -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Still haven't completed this Race yet. Ajinomoto Time Attack -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- For this time attack, I used my GTO Twin Turbo. It took a few tries, but I finally did it. The hardest of the two Time Attacks. Calbee Time Attack -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- The easiest of the two Time Attacks, I also used my GTO Twin Turbo. It was easy, and the 3,000,000 payoff makes it even better. :p 0-400 Tournament -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ok, for this Drag Race, I went over to the Carrozzeria, got all of my Factory Licenses, then created an SA class car, 654x3cc, with 4WD, Turbo engine, Mid-engine layout, then tuned everything up to Racing level and step 3 level. It had about 1155 HP, and was extremely fast. I won it the second time I raced it, and I got over 13,000,000 dollars for winning. 0-1000 Tournament -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Just like in the previous tournament, I used my 654x3cc SA class car, with 4WD, Turbo engine, and Mid-engine layout to win it. Rinrei Novice Car Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- I used my 1000cc, 4WD, rear engine, Favor RS, with an N/A engine to win. It wasn't that hard either. Tarami Original Car Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Still haven't completed this Cup yet. N/A Light Car Race -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Still haven't completed this Race yet. NTT Communications Novice Car Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Still haven't completed this Race yet. I have tried using Toyota Celica SS-II Super Strut Package, but I still didn't win with it. Jommo Original Car Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Still haven't completed this Cup yet. N/A Large Car Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Still haven't completed this Cup yet. Pioneer Max Speed -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Still haven't completed this Race yet. I have tried using my fully tuned GTO Twin Turbo, but I have only reached 317 kph. Bridgestone Endurance -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Still haven't completed these Races yet. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=- OFFICAL RACES: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Terminology: -------------- Novice Car Cups: Only allow cars that have been bought that are at the allowed class level, and are NOT tuned up. Original Car Cups: Only allow cars that have been created in the Factory, at the allowed class level, and engine tuned up IS allowed. Open Races: Anything goes. You can have any class car, tune ups, and they can be either bought or created in the Factory. N/A Races: Only allow cars that are N/A, not super charged or turbo. Class Cups: Only allowed to use cars from that specific class. Entry Class -=-=-=-=-=-= Pretty easy to win. I just used my Honda Z Turbo that I won, then tuned it up a bit. Again, an easy cup to win. Entry Class Special Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- I used my 1000cc, 4WD, rear engine, Favor RS, with an N/A engine to win. Pretty easy, just as long as you tune up your car to at least at Sports level. B Class Cup -=-=-=-=-=- For this cup, I used a Mazda Roadster Special Package to win. Tune it up to at least a Sports level engine layout in order to win. B Class Special Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Still haven't completed this Cup yet. A Class Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=- For this race, I bought a Mitsubishi FTO GPX, then tuned it up to Racing level, and level 3 tune Ups. A Class Special Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Once again, I used my Mitsubishi FTO GPX to win this cup without much problem. SA Class Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=- For this cup, I used my trusty fully tuned Mitsubishi GTO Twin Turbo, with full weight reduction and racing tires to win. SA Class Special Cup -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Still haven't completed this Cup yet. *MORE TO COME!* ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 7.3: Tracks ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Track List: -=-=-=-=-=- Sprint Zone Solid Circuit Sky Peak Track Sky Peak Hill Great Rock Road Deep Rock Road Snowy Mountain Night Ground Night Section A Night Section B Heat Stage 1000 (Drag Strip: 1000 m) Industrial 400 (Drag Strip: 400 m) *TRACK STRATEGIES TO COME!* ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 7.4: Reader Tips ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• This section is for any Tips that readers have sent me.

In the pioneer max speed i used the new supra rz fully modified in all areas then in the settings i moved all the gears settings almost to the left(forgive me i dont have the numbers ,and im not near my DC right now but if this doesnt help ill get the numbers exactly and send them to you again)anyways the supra is not to easy to steer but after messing around with the settings abit i got a top speed of 447km\hr now thats the fastest ive gotten so far but im still perfecting the suspension settings so i can handle the curves at higher speeds hince coming onto the straight aways faster ,which reminds me .another little trick (which if your a racing genre fan you'll know this) is at the start of the race, turn around and race backards this will give you unlimited Laps to perfect the turns at higher speeds and get the max speed up there but dont forget once you reached it turn arond and complete the race forwards. 2.In the Bridgestone endurance race I used the GTO twin turbo(personaly my favorite all around car) again the gear ratios were set at higher speeds and the suspension was set very tight anyway i ended up lapping the cars twice on my first run at it ,and once you figure out how to get those settings you can race that race over and over and its an easy 10,000,000 cr every time 3. The last thing is a couple of settings strategies. Under the settings menu you can boost your engines performance even more than what the default HP says just go under setup>settings>engine>turbo/supercharger and boost that puppy to its full max HP ( I know thats simple but i thought i would add it because i didnt see it in your strategies and i didnt realize it could be done until after playing the game a couple of times ) the last thing is ,this is another simple one but some people dont realize this, tires make the car so if possible i always run soft racing tires on all my cars. *Eric * ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 8.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 1) Q: Is Sega GT worth importing? A: Yep. Just think it as Gran Turismo 2 on STEROIDS, and you'll get the idea. 2) Q: Is there much Japanese text? A: No, not really. There is some text, like when you try to save your game, or when you try to view the descriptions of the tuning modes and parts. 3) Q: How many cars are there in Sega GT? A: There are about 100 car models in the game. 4) Q: Is there anything extra that comes with Sega GT? A: Not much, but it comes with two HUGE instruction books, a mode index foldout, and tiny sheet with stickers on it, and the stickers have pics of the cars on them. It's pretty cool. 5) Q: About how much does Sega GT cost to import? A: I got it from my local importer for $59.99 + tax, but if you get it from NCSX or another online importer, it'll cost you $59.99 + shipping and handling. 6) Q: Is Sega GT better than Gran Turismo 2? A: It comes VERY close, but gameplay wise, it's still not up to par with Gran Turismo 2. Graphically, on the other hand, it stomHP GT 2 into the ground. Sega GT is one of the best looking DC games so far, and DEFINATLY to best looking racing game that I've seen. Although I still haven't seen Ridge Racer V in action yet... 7) Q: I can't read any Japanese. How do I know what to do in the VMU Mini-Games? Or how do I know what type of parts I'm buying when I go to tune my car? A: I'm still waiting for someone out there to PLEASE send me some menu and game text translations so I can let the world know what they have to do in those Mini-Games and what type of tuning parts they're buying. 8) Q: How can I sell my car? A: First, select the car you wish to sell. Next, go to the Car Dealer, go to Used Cars, then go towards the bottom of the screen and select "Sell". Now you will be able to sell your car for some easy cash. 9) Q: What is the Carrozerria? A: It's where you are able to get your factory licenses (which allow you to race in Offical Races and to make cars), and it's where the factory is located. The Factory is where you are able to create your own personalized car. It's quite remarkable. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 10. Pocket Homo: VMU Mini-Game ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• In Pocket Homo, you'll take the role of a race car driver in an A-Life type of game, sorta like an RPG. You can download a game for each sponser, although the game is exactly the same for each sponser, so it really doesn't matter who you choose. The VMU Mini-Game takes up around 128 blocks of space on your VMU, and can be worth your time to play it. It's worth it because you are able to upload your VMU A-Life data to the main game, and use any money that you've won in the Mini-Game in the main game. It's taken me a while,(and quite a few sets of batteries!), but I think I've finally found out what everything means in the game, so here's MY translation of what's going on: MAIN SCREEN: -=-=-=-=-=-=- Driver A-Life ------\ | Race ---------------|------\ | | Money ----------\ | | | | | Sound Options ------|------|--------\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | MONEY SCREEN: <-/ | | | -=-=-=-=-=-=- | | | Money Total | | | | | | Car 1 | | | | | | Car 2 | | | | | | | | | | | | V | | DRIVER A-LIFE SCREEN: | | -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- | | Status --------------------|--------|-------------\ | | | Excersice -----------------|----\ | | | | | | Work ----------------------|----|---|---\ | | | | | | Rest | | | | | | | | | | Race ----------------------|----|---|---|---\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RACE SCREEN: <-----------/ | | | | | -=-=-=-=-=-=- | | | | | Race 1 | | | | | | | | | | Race 2 | | | | | | | | | | Race 3 | | | | | | | | | | Race 4 | | | | | | | | | | Race 5 | | | | | | | | | | Race 6 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | EXCERCISE SCREEN: <-----------/ | | | | -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- | | | | Push-Ups | | | | | | | | Running | | | | | | | | Power-Walk | | | | | | | | Read | | | | | | | | Dream | | | | | | | | Swimming | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SOUND OPTIONS SCREEN: <-----------/ | | | -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- | | | On | | | | | | Off | | | | | | | | | | | | WORK SCREEN: <-------------------------/ | | -=-=-=-=-=-=- | | Paper Boy | | | | Car Dealer | | | | Car Mechanic | | | | | | | | RACE SCREEN: <----------------------------/ | -=-=-=-=-=-=- | A: Yes | | B: No | | | | STATUS SCREEN: <-------------------------------/ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=- HP (Hit Points) ??? ??? ??? ??? Money Total Driver A-Life: Mini-Guide: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- The Driver A-Life in Pocket Homo is very much like the A-Life in Sonic Adventure. Your goal here is to collect as much money as possible in order to excercise, which will increase your overall HP. Racing also earns you money, but is hard to do. Try not to over-work your Driver A-Life, or else he'll be sent to the hospital, so let him rest every 2-3 workouts to be safe. Another great aspect of this Mini-Game is that any money that you've earned in Pocket Homo can be uploaded back into the main game, and can be used there. It's pretty cool, and is original since this is new to the racing genre. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Race Terminology: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Heart: Represents the amount of lives you have in your race. You may also pick up extra hearts as you race. Flag: Shows what position you are in during the race. Clock: Shows the amount of time left in the race. You may also pick up extra clocks as you race to increase the amount of time you have to finish the race. Start: A+B Downloading: -=-=-=-=-=-=- Downloading data is where you download VMU info from the main game onto your VMU, if you have 128 blocks of free space. When you download, you get to choose a car manufacturer (Subaru, Honda, Toyota, etc.) and you'll get to become a race car driver for that company in your A-Life. When you download, just think of it as "downloading" game info "down" into your small VMU. Uploading: -=-=-=-=-=- Uploading data is where you can upload your game VMU Pocket Homo data from your VMU to the main game, and then you can use any money that you have earned there in the main game. When you upload, just think that you are putting data that you've downloaded from the game back into the game. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Excercise Screen: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Push-Ups --------- Cost: 200 dollars Running -------- Cost: 250 dollars Power Walk ----------- Cost: 250 dollars Read ----- Cost: 250 dollars Dream ------ Cost: 600 dollars Swimming --------- Cost: 750 dollars -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Working Screen: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Paper Boy ---------- Money Earned: 550 dollars Car Dealer ----------- Money Earned: 900 dollars Car Mechanic ------------- Money Earned: 1000 dollars ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 11.
