Wide Body Questions

dougie02 · Post by **dougie02** » 30 May 2004, 16:39

I'm just getting back into playing this after a few monthes away from it. I'm currently stuck on race 86, but Ive looked ahead on a few guides over at GameFAQS, and I saw that you can only have one wide body kit.

Which one is better? Does one look really good on certain cars? Can someone post a few pictures or links of each?

It all depends by your "taste"
btw, I think one is good for half and the other for the other half....but there are cars that become ugly with widebody...

the best choise is get unique unlocker....
So when you pass 111th race youll get one of wides and then run that utility and unlock another one....
I did and got 2 wides....

yeah, agree with viper. However, I prefer Vapor at 80% of the cars
I suggest you to take your favorite car at underground mode, in order to have it when you have to choose the wide body (about 106th - 109th race).

If you are no sure, take Vapor

Or quit the idea of wide body kits altogether .. Anyone with a bit of taste thinks they suck, me included.

Some widebodys are nice on some cars,but i like cars without widebodys,but if you want to use widebody i perfer mantis,vapor is for ''sic'' cars...

I dont appreciate your arrogancy, or your "knowledge" Summ. Why even come into this thread if that is your opinion?

My three favorite cars are the 350z, the RSX and the Lancer. Can anyone direct me to some pics in the showroom, showing some of these with wide body kits on them?

I have a Lancer with the vapor wide body kit which makes it look like the Evo version. This 1 is also in the showroom (2nd most viewed)

Well I'm in the process of playing through the game using every car to complete a profile. Needless to say I've been a bit lax on playing through my current profile(#11), however, I've made PLENTY of cars. What with the showroom challenges and all, course that said back on topic eh? It DOES depend on taste. What I reccomend is do your best to get through a profile and pick out the widebody that looks best on whatever car you are using. The other thing is that even if you choose a widebody kit you can go just go back to no wide body in the next race. I also reccomend that you do at least 1 more profile with the other widebody kit so that you have the ability to make custom cars with both.

People seem to think that it's super hard to play underground mode

I've done about 11 profiles all on HARD for every race, using different cars

Practice makes perfect.

Vapor's the best. Well, at least for the cars I like, liek rx-7. Matis is GREAT on skyline. But most cars i dont liek wide bods. Some are terrible.

Vapor best looks:

Rx-7
RSX
s2000
eclipse
supra
lancer
Civic

matis best looks:
rx-7
skyline
Miata
Tiburon
Civic
eclipse
Golf

to my oppinion anwyays.

here are the ways that the cars you like look with each widebody... the lancer, rsx and the 350z... hope they're of use to you.

I suggest you to download the visual extra-parts util (you can found it at this site)

dougie02 · Post by **dougie02** » 01 Jun 2004, 00:53

Thanks for the pics. I would download this stuff, but I have ps2.

I think I will stick with the rsx. It looks nice with both of them.

The Lancer widebody's cheating, all it does it make it look like an Evo 9.

^Sparco^ · Post by **^Sparco^** » 05 Jun 2004, 17:23

EVO 9??? The latest is VIII. If you know Roman numbers it is 8 (v=5 ; III=3 : 5+3=8 ) lol

After voting +130 Mazda MX5 @ TC, I have noticed that people like widebodys. Why? Because it is easier to make a car? More quick? ....

I hate widebodys in little cars, so I applied my own rule: widebody: -7p
no widebody:+7p

Widebodys are suitable to long cars, such as Skyline. And looks pretty in 350z, for example
