i got me an FD3S Tune A, its a mad car

Mind you the DC2 is considered the best car in the game for some stupid reason (2nd is RX7 Type R)

Evo 3 has misfiring system at 120K tuning points and that gets u a nice boost outa the turns

DC2 is only good on Happogahara with the handicap(boost) ON.

Neh... DC2 is good on Iro and Happo with Boost off. It can perform ok on Akina and Akagi but not on Myogi and Usui.

I recommand the FD though.

with all this talk i'm pretty worried.

i've got an R34 Skyline n i've almost beatin all the Myogi courses easy except for that red civic guy...Shogi is it? newayz i've read most of the stuff n ppl say Skylines r the best for Myogi n i think i see why. But now what about the other courses? on Usui i wasn't that bad, but do ppl even drift in a Skyline? or is it that whole grip technique with the brakes cuz slowing down just ain't my style.

yeah i read that other thing too, i use the Left foot brake to drift. But now i'm not sure n i'm thinking of gettin another car.

The Skyline runs best in Myogi. But after that, it isn't really good. Well, in this game you still drift with the skyline rather than the grip technique. I tried the grip technique on Myogi and Usui but it seems to me that drifting the skyline is faster. Anyway, I suggest you to get a new car, like the FD or DC2.

Just my 2

Skyline = 2 heavy
therfore: bad for corners
and: FD kills it
else: DC2 is crap, i hate it

Also: i suggest the bunta WRX, it goes well and hits soem nice speeds when its boost kicks in (tops out at around 170-180)

The skyline is the worst car in the game no matter what anyone says. The more upgrades you do to it, the slower it gets.

but if you get bunta's car. does that mean a new card or somethin? or is the data saved on the pre-existing card?

cuz if it's really that good, i guess i'll try to beat him.

Everytime you want to get a new car you have to get a new card. And buntas car tops out at 204. I have buntas car with 1mill+ points.

As I mention earlier, the Skyline is only good and record breaking in Myogi. Other than the skyline, no other cars can be faster than it in Myogi.

Bunta's Car is an all rounder.. Good for uphill and downhill!~

Hey, what you smokin? Check the net rankings, Skyline sucks as a car, it gets FASTEr as you upgrade, but it really sucks, you gotta be good to be able to drive it. On Myougi, the best stock car is an R34, but for tuned, the AE86 will tear you apart...

The DC2 is a powerful car in Intial D v2, for this reason: when you hit a wall, NOTHING HAPPENS. No slowdown, no nothing. And it can corner at a huge speed. Simply put, the DC2 is the easiest car to win with. Newbies love them because of the whole wall-thing.

But, if you are a total master, the fastest cars are the RX-7 FD3S, 101 (new engine) Trueno, and the WRX STi GC8. But the DC2 is still hard to beat, especially in the rain.
