The Mitsubishi HSR-II Concept Car '89 has 2 movable "fins" on the rear. And on the front, the Mitsubishi logo looks a little more like a Japanese building instead of it's logo. Be careful with this car, because it can go out of control! The HSR-II has 345hp and a top speed around 185mph. You can win this in Japanese 80's Festival>Japanese Events.

The "finned" car on GT4

Hint: Long Smoke Trails
During a replay, the trails of smoke left by sliding (or doing burnouts) can be extended by pressing L3. This speeds up the replay, but not the amount of time the smoke takes to disappear, thus leaving longer, more realistic trails of smoke when drifting, and thicker smoke when doing burnouts. The longer smoke trails remain the same when taking pictures.
Hint: Fast Millions
This is a quick way of making close to a million in no time.
I advise you to get your International A licence, and yes I know its not easy, but its worth it. International B is a must.
You need about Cr.30 000 to get started. Go to the Late '90s used car hall and buy yourself a Subaru Impreza or Legacy, any one will do. They cost about Cr.15 000.
Go change the oil and take it for a upgrade with the remaining Cr.15 000 that you should have left. A stage one turbo with a racing chip shoud do for the races that you about to do.
Go to the Subaru Manufacturer race called Stars of Pleiades. There's five races and all the cares are about the same. Each race earns you Cr.10 000 and winning the Championship is Cr. 75 000 in your bank account. And you get a really hot Subaru Impreza Super Touring Car.
Take your new Scooby and race in the same race as you just did. Only now sell your Touring Cars you win for about Cr.95 000.
Once you got about Cr.500 000 go and buy yourself a brand new AUDI Abt Audi TT-R for Cr.450 000. And here is where the fun starts:
Go to the European Hall and enter the Deutsche Touring Car Meisterschaft. If you strugle with the races, spend some cash and get an extra couple of ponies under the hood.
It's five races worth Cr.15 000 each plus Cr. 75 000 for winning the championship. The great prize though is the Mercedes CLR Le Mans flying piece of crap that you win. I don't like racing it, but I love selling it for close to Cr.945 000.
If you started from scratch you would have turned Cr.30 000 into anything just shy of Cr. 1,1 million. And from here you make that every time you enter the Deutsche Touring Car Meisterschaft.paul_estanislaoHint: Nurburgring 24 Hour Endurance Set-up
Obtain the 2004 Ford GT LM Race Car Spec II (the white and black car in the opening sequence) from the Professional Events-GT World Champion race. That race is a ten race marathon (totalling 136 laps on ten different tracks).
Buy everything available for the car -- importantly the Super Hard Racing Tires (R1s). Set the "Auto Transmission" feature to a value of 18. Equip the R1 tires and get ready for at least twelve hours (of sped up time) of hell.
You must do the 24 hour endurance race in B-Spec mode with the 2004 Ford GT LM Race Car Spec II in order to guarantee a long hard fought win within thirteen hours real time instead of twenty four hours real time.
In B-Spec mode, you have the option to speed up the race by entering the Race Monitor Screen by pressing R1. Then, hold L1 and use the D-pad Left or D-pad Right to go from real time up to three times normal speed.
At the beginning of the race, set the auto pilot to a value of 5 (Push) and turn the overtake feature on by pressing TRIANGLE. Once you get ahead of the pack and have a decent lead, turn off overtake and set the autopilot to 2 (Cruise). You should only have to pit every three to four laps.
Get everything every time that you pit (tires and fuel). Set the autopilot back to 2 (Cruise) once you leave the pit. Continue this strategy until the end of the race. This will net you a Formula One car.
Mmervin MaynardHint: Engine Rebuild
After a couple hundred miles of racing, your engine's internals begin to wear leading to a loss of power. As an engine gets older, this wear increases and the power decrease becomes more pronounced. Torque is not affected as much though.
You fix this by doing an oil change and an engine rebuild. Changing the oil increases the engine's resistance against wear and tear and also restores the HP lost when the previous oil was exhausted. For just 50 credits and oil change on a used car can be more effective than a computer updrade.
If you have a dedicated race car, an engine build is a must as you will be racing it more than your other cars. Engine building ensures and increases power and longevity. After the oil change, perform what actions you think your engine needs (like Increasing displacement, balancing, port and polish, etc.). Be sure to swap out the computer while at it.
Flip89Hint: Six Second Shave (Fuji 90)
On the Fuji Speedway 90's track, there's a tight corner before a big turn leading to a straight away. Instead of braking to enter the tight corner, cut through the grass at full speed and straight into the last big turn. Before you cut through the grass, make sure your car is stable so you wont lose control when you're back on the road. This should shave off atleast 6 seconds if the car is stable when back on the road.
V.I.PwweEaster Egg: Forest Fire
On Apricot Hill, go reverse. It's on the 2nd turn before you start going down hill. Look way over on the mountain side, look striaght. On the side of the mountain there is grayish, what appears to be smoke coming up and blowing towards the right.
V.I.PwweEaster Egg: Tall, Tall Tree
On Trail Mountain normal, get to the end of the big straight, the one with the tunnel. Before you get to the big banked sharp turn you can look out over the valley or whatever. There is a lone tree staning there, bare, just standing there. That's one big big tree.
mclarenf14meHint: Fast Racing For Fast Profit
Start out with any vehicle you like. When you make enough money to make your vehicle faster using the beginner hall, move over the the special conditions Hall. Defeat the first race (Rally d' Umbria) and you will receive a Cadillac CIEN '02. Get more money and put more power into your Cadillac CIEN '02 (you won't have to if you don't want to). The CIEN will gain almost 1000+ HP. Go to the second race with the CEIN in the Special Conditions Hall called Rally d' Capri. After you win that race you will get a Toyota RSC Rally Raid Car '02 which you can sell for more than $230,000+. Keep racing that race and keep making the money.
To obtain over 260,000 credits easily just take your best car and take it into the Rally d' Capri easy in the Special Conditions hall. Once you obtain the car sell it and you get over 260,000 credits. You can repeat this over and over and soon enough you should be able to afford anything you want.
Enter the European Hall event 1000 Miles! I recommend either the Ginetta G4 '64 (won from Beginner Lightweight K Cup) or the Chevelle SS 454 '70 (won from American Muscle Car Championship). Enter the Cote d'Azur race (I think the last one works just the same). Make sure your car's HP is near or above 200. Put it on B-spec, 5-Push, overtake, 3x speed. Come back after a couple hours (this works best if you leave it overnight). You should have won the race, along with 150,000 credits! This can also be done with the championship race, which is 4 races. 4 races times 150,000 credits plus 300,000 credit prize equals 900,000 credits. The prize car is crappy, but who cares, you have 900,000 credits from doing nothing!
JoeamisHint: Press To Pause
At any screen with scrolling text, pause the ticker by pressing L3. The information ticker sometimes have the best tips in the game.
ineedspeedUnlock Audi Nuvolari Quattro
Notice that after you have completed 25% of the game, you will reveive a new car, like if you've just finished a tournament. That car is the Audi Nuvolari Quattro.
Tom HahnHint: Horse Power
When you buy or receive a new car, before driving it change the oil. This will increase the Horse Power of the car, which sometimes can be a pretty significant increase.
Hint: Transfer Files
If you have a save file from GT3 you can import money and licenses into GT4. You can transfer license qualifications but you do not receive the unlockable items that come with the license when you get them without importing. You can transfer money up to 100,000 dollars. This can only be done once.
