THE *old, obsolete* NFS U2 FAQ

an 800hp celica is very possible. and i know there are 106's in real life putting down 500 horses

Spitfire · Post by **Spitfire** » 22 Nov 2004, 18:30

i know i know (top fuel dragsters are havin 6000 bhp) but im interested in the u2. are there posible things like skyline or supra with 1000 horses?

gofra · Post by **gofra** » 22 Nov 2004, 19:13

Sure they are, just use google alittle...The strongest Supra I had the chance to see had near up to 1200 HP. max. That is of course, same stock engine moded (no jets or anything like that

)

Also, engine size really doesn't matter as much as you guys think. Years ago, F1 cars had 1300 to 1500 ccm engines that produced more than 800 HP (with a turbo of course). Also, the number of cylinders isn't as important as it seems. The problem is with the torque (reaches peak near where the power does) and RPMs. So teoretically yes, you could build a 1000 HP 4 cylinder 1500 ccm engine. But it would probably take months of time and large amounts of cash (material) to do so. Knowing this, of course it's easier to tune up a big fat Chevy V8.

Sorry, didn't see that....The cars in NFSU2 all max up at approx 500, 550 HP.

you need to remember this is a game....

the cars are all pretty evenly matched if you put level 3 everything on

in real life if you were to spend the same amount of money ona corsa, as a nissan 200sx, the sx would totally blitz the corsa....

Spitfire · Post by **Spitfire** » 22 Nov 2004, 19:27

there were even f1s with 1500bhp 1.5 litre V12. ofcourse that it depends on the hp/litre, havin 200hp/litre in a evo8 and in Â´70 charger is a big difference.and todays f1s engines stands max. for 2 races... its just a metter of showin off ( "yo dude ive got a supra with 1000 horses"...

)
but its fun

now what i mean? cause tuning isnt just about big rims, its about big turbos too

Spitfire · Post by **Spitfire** » 22 Nov 2004, 19:36

i now that this is off-topic and im also not so sure that if i can

but im heres a link to a page with some drag videos. vielside supra with 1268 bhp ( standart engine block ) and many many more....

http://www.tremek.com is good for videos too..

too bad the power:weight ratio doesn't matter very much in this game

F1 engines use a V10 configuration, not a V12 ... They have for a long time (30+ years, but not sure how far beyond 30 years)

DeeFunK · Post by **DeeFunK** » 22 Nov 2004, 23:49

i have a problem, i accidently traded my corsa for an mx5, and traded it back and so i decided to work on getting money like racing other people that drive around, and now there is no one around, i can't do drag races because i wont win.

GuilleX · Post by **GuilleX** » 23 Nov 2004, 01:36

for gettin' more HP you just don't need yo get a bigger engine... you can touch more things
example: a F1 has 2000 cm2 engine.... meanwhile a GMC a 4000 cm2 engine... the cm2 just are needed when you go in a upway.. like un mountains... a engine with more cm2 will no lose his RPM... meanwhile a engine with less cm2 will lose all the RPM until you finde a perfect torque...
But... like everything... more is better... if you get a 99999999 CM2 engine.... the buy it!

just keep touching the engine... the tires(bigger tires drain the torque of the engine... but when you are runnin like wind... the will help)

Anybody know when I get the Level 3 Turbo, NOS and those things?
I finished it, but all I got was Level 2 Turbo, and yes, I double checked with the shops offering Level 3, but it is locked, even after completing the game.

GuilleX · Post by **GuilleX** » 23 Nov 2004, 17:03

You just gave me a surprise! WTF? No LvL3 parts? i cant think so...
You must be mistaken... you haven't ended the game... you are proximately at 60%... try this: reach 6 stars givin your car all the things you can to raise that meter... now after that when you get out of the shop you'll be noticed with a new DVD cover(at the top of the map)... reach it... and you will be in another raw of competitions... in here wou'll get LvL3 parts...

I hope this is your problem.... and i hope you can pass it by!!!

i just found out that there is a world map in a garage

so that's why i got the game completed screen at 65%. now when i done some of the races i have 76% done. great to find out this

and i saw in one thread that the dude got the message from Rachel saying: "Give me back my car ASAP or I'll make sure your racing days are over." (something like that) wtf? the first thing i did it was that i took her car to the car lot and treaded it for a 206. strange

. any ideas what this is? and it says i must go to the car lot...went to the car lot -> nothing there

makreller_dk · Post by **makreller_dk** » 23 Nov 2004, 22:41

Yes i got that message too.. Strange?

PSZeTa · Post by **PSZeTa** » 24 Nov 2004, 00:35

Whoops, I deleted my message..

I've got the same thing. I don't even have her friggin 350Z.

Edit: Also, is that my turbo i hear spooling up or is it just my imgination (you know that whine) (and i dont meant he blow off valve eitehr or wastegate)

Well, I spoke to a friend of mine regarding this situation.. He said that once you started the game, go to the Car Lot immediately and switch to another car, don't use the 350Z for racing... He never gotten that message once he did that.

Hope this helps...

I think I have been there?
Well anyways, I'll head over there again.
Yeah I am done, I got the SMS from Rachel saying it, and I also raced the final guy, he was actually a very easy match, even with a Level 2 turbo
