They really need to bring back the used car dealership because it added so much depth to the game. But being the generation of instant gratification they took it out to put all cars in dealerships just like GT3

[@looniethemoonie5353]

I would always start on the Mazda rx-7 infinity iii the red one that was around 9,000 credits I believe. You could race the first 2 series (the ones without needing a license) and also the rx-7 races which if you won would get you 10,000 credits.

​@@Phoenix_Destiny_KaiGran Turismo 2 Prize Cars are basically better than GT7 even with Master License tests.

[@Phoenix_Destiny_Kai]

@@purwantiallan5089 I don't disagree mostly, but then again I think the allure is more that you can actually win cars *repeatedly* in GT2 compared to modern games where you can only win one time and that was it. You had to find other ways to grind money. (I say it like that because Red Rock in GT All Stars gave a fantastic prize, both performance/money wise. The Speed 12 practically gave half a million away every time! And it wasn't a bad car to use for the higher tournaments too.)

The biggest prize in this game is getting the Subaru Impreza 22b from the used dealership. Also, once you get the Skyline Silhouette, you can pretty much win every race. That car is a monster. Over 550 hp and weighs nothing.

My technique was finish licenses the faster i could and buy 91 celica gtfour, win a few races and improve it to race 30laps trail mountain endurance. You win an op supra and a big wallet to start the game

My nostalgic memories just returned again. The crazy endurance race is just the thing that I cannot do on original PS1 (cause of restriction play duration since I was a child, well you know what does I mean 😅). But it works on emulator thanks to "save features (not a memory card)" which you can return in certain lap.

[@Runelor]

My favorite feature about GT2 was the bhp limitation. In the later installments, it was easy to win since any bhp was allowed. GT6 tried to fix this but failed since some cars break it. For example the SRT. GT2 was a ton of fun because you weren't overpowered.

[@Turbobuttes]

I find the GT2 power limits very generous still. For a real challenge you need to lower the limit by another 25% in most races, and also use the appropriate type of car for the challenge.

[@submaniac93]

Time for my usual wall of text comment about things I can point out, or add to, or correct when wrong :P To note for the Tom's T020 / TRD2000GT combo. Whereas the TRD is Turbo, the Tom's is N/A. Which makes the Tom's more impressive in terms or real life mechanics :) (and useful in the NA tuned cup) Also to note, the Blue/Silver Race Modification for the 1997 MR2 GT-S was first meant to be for the TRD2000GT is it is its RM in GT2 demos. (It also had a standalone named Tsuchiya MR2, as it also was a GT300 race car driven by K. Tsuchiya) As for the Nismo 400R Prece"i"ding model, it also has 500rpm less in revs than the final one, with a little less power, but less power loss at high range. About the Demio, it's not the racing exhaust, but the ENTIRE turbo line of sounds. See, GT2 engines can have 2 sets of exhaust sounds. One for turbo cars, and one for naturally aspirated ones, and the game switches automatically depending on the aspiration type. And the Demio A-spec for whatever reason, doesn't have any Turbo sounds at all. Something to note, every engine sound has to have the 2 sets, so when a car doesn't use a particular engine's turbo or NA sounds, they are replaced with a tiny sound file with a straight line frequency sound in them. Hence the UFO. Ah this needs correcting from me. The unused Skyline 4-door Fujitsubo racing modification is NOT the Autech Nismo RM, but unused for the regular R33 Skyline GT-R 4door that you can buy in the used dealership at Nissan. Internally, this RM's name is "n2r4r", the "r" of which mean RM, while the Skyline 4-door is "n2r4n" with "n" for normal. The Autech Nismo is "n2rnn" on the other hand, and a race mod for it would therefore be named "n2rnr". Ah right, about the 2 Concept Car variants (normal and LM) they are mistakenly programmed as MR, when in fact they are FR. About the dual Mugen CRX Pro.2 you can win. I believe personally that one of them (most likely the ont that's not in the 80s sports car cup) was supposed to be replaced by the unused Mugen S2000 that's present in the game's files. I slightly diagree with the palette swap about the Xanavi Silvia... but i'm being picky. It has a textured and not (albeit not very well made) 3D diffuser at the back, while the Daishin lacks the set of canards up front. A different hood shape (1 less 'blade' long) and an additional ducktail 'lip' spoiler on the boot/trunklid. But like I said, i'm nitpicking, I also like the Xanavi's colors more :p You say that the Arta Zexel R34 has less power than Unisia Jecs.... and well that's false. The Unisia Jecs and all R34 JGTC Skylines have 702hp (which is unfortunate as a lot of late game events are limited to 690hp.... It's the R33 Kure and Zexel that have less power. Speaking of the UJ R33, it has shorter ratios compared to other Skylines in its category, same for the 1998 Mugen NSX GT. I wonder why though... About the Escort and its weight, yeah it could... but it's within the regulations for the newly-created WRC category back then. The Group A was lighter however. Ah the Toyota Altezza LM... The very last non-hidden car I didn't know about in GT2 because I never got it. I learned of it around 2010 when I replayed GT2 through emulation haha As always though, nice informative video!

[@MattJ155]

The ZZII has a special place in my memory. Oddly enough, not because of any race I won with it. I was doing a top speed run on the test course when I lost control in turn 3-4 (I don't remember how, this was about 15 years ago) and hit the wall. What came next had me laughing for hours while watching the replay over and over. Somehow the car defyied the laws of physics and started doing what I can only describe as a near horizontal cartwheel. It continued to do so for the ENTIRE. CURVE. It took about 2 minutes to make it's way around, only finally coming to a stop when the bank of the turn leveled out. Good times...

The Toyota Altezza LM Edition became one of my favorite cars in GT2 since unlocking it for the first time when I was in high school. I had a lot of fun using the Nissan R390 GT1 race cars aswell. Though I think the prize car I got the most mileage out of was the Unisia Jecs Skyline GT-R. When I was a kid, I use to use that all of the time to grind for money.

[@ShiningJudgment666]

The R390 GT1 Road cars could actually achieve a higher level of power (and higher top speed with some gear ratio changes) than the race cars however, with the race cars, you could take corners at higher speeds.

[@Torthrodhel]

Both GT1 and GT2 have a lineup that's just stuffed full of that beautiful blocky 80s/90s goodness you simply don't get much of nowadays. The low-res graphics actually kinda help accentuate it too. People might look pretty with curves but I think cars look prettier without. Something locked in time that I think won't be seen again (as well as racing games being single-player collectathons first and foremost, which I miss too and also don't think will be seen again).

Lancia stratos always scared me as a kid. I don't know, there's something unsettling with that car..

[@jadz684z]

Was that the equivalent of the devil Z for you?

[@the_black_hawk1313]

We’ll stick with oversquare mid-engined cars and nominate Lancia’s iconic Stratos. This is a car with a 2180mm wheelbase. A Kia Picanto has a 2400mm wheelbase. The road cars had a modest 140kW but in full Group 5 trim, the Stratos was good for 420kW. The competition car was designed around one man, diminutive works driver Sandro Munari. In his hands, the Stratos won the Monte Carlo Rally in 1975, 1976 and 1977 amongst other big wins, but the car required such a skill level that many drivers tried and failed to master it. Björn Waldegård was about the only other factory hotshoe who could get to grips with the spiky Stratos. It wasn’t a lasting relationship though. He ignored team orders and beat Munari in the 1976 San Remo Rally and was promptly sacked. Driving a road Stratos is an exercise in commitment and throttle balance. It’s the only rear-wheel drive car I can think of where the back wheels toe out, so it has hyper-sharp responses on the way into a corner. Get on the throttle a fraction too quickly or back off sharply and you’ll be doing a lot of twirling. That rapid response from the rear suspension is balanced by dementedly slow steering at three and a quarter turns lock-to-lock. Its reputation is fully deserved

[@falkenturn14brz]

The other day I saw a Stratos and took a pic, never imagined I would find one here in Argentina lol

[@ripperroo6817]

Me too 😐

[@danielphilpott4308]

I like it when you talk about the history of the JGTC cars.

[@MattJ155]

That was all down to the narrator - Thunder from HG Central. Credit to him for those facts. :)

[@ThunderTHR]

I.. I couldn't help myself.

[@NALTOdeluxe]

This is still mind blowing for an original PlayStation game.

[@Tj-vo7yf]

I find it more enjoyable and satisfying to unlock hidden cars by winning races instead of making all cars available to drive so easily or buy them whether by in game credits or your money

[@JamesLaserpimpWalsh]

Man I spent ages getting that GT1. This was an awesome game.

[@HowdaBoss]

I'm subbing and liking just because I can only imagine how much time was spent in doing this video. Great work man!

[@MattJ155]

Thanks!

[@frds_skce]

I love how i already got all the cars here during my first gameplay about 2 years ago, but come back anyway because nostalgia

[@frds_skce]

21:47 This here is my most used car in the GT2 end-game because god, how much could I say of how I love Nissan Skyline R33. It's imo the best Skyline there is and the most beautiful one there is. Also, the understeer it bears is the great aspect of Unisia Jecs Skyline cuz it forces me to learn how to tune car for the first time in GT2 to make the car more oversteer-ish, as I love to drift during the race. A very hard trick, however it's possible to be done.

[@frds_skce]

26:23 ANOTHER BEST CAR HERE, THE DRAG MASTER! I would be driving this car all day in tracks if it weren't for the terrible handling. However, I did try to beat some I-A cup featuring Red Rock Valley and manage to win the race! It's a great car for long track, but you can make up for the time loss in turning as you are 30 secs in front of everyone

[@SenseiRaisen]

In all of my life, i wonder where the Stratos was given to when i finish ALL the game's races, even the event races on the dealerships. But since Lancia didn't had one, i always wondered where you can get it. Thou, i still don't like it was a 50/50 chance behind an endurance race.

[@jeffryvandenhooven2445]

Ooo yeah!! A new GT2 video from Matt!!!

[@MattJ155]

Thanks Jeffry!

[@baltousprime7897]

Back before we had to wait weekly/monthly for "prize cars" and updates that could include new cars to the game (and not just blocked behind the "play-to-win" in gaming data)

[@georgejakob1451]

"Play to win"?

[@ilrathCXV]

I haven't played this game in so long. I wish I had played it more as a kid! For the random prize cars, would it better to just win a race, see what you get, then reset in order for a shot at the car you want?

[@pinkvitz7208]

Thank you for this video!! I'm playing GT2 for the first time and it's useful to know how to win certain cars!

[@TaisinViper]

Taisan Viper was my favorite due to out handling everyone else

[@ricardomartinez5908]

46:32 this viper it's my imposible wish

[@tevinhoward4419]

Every vehicle has the generation and all its glory.😎

[@BritishRail60062]

I have many happy memories of the Toyota GT-One 99 race car. The moment I saw it in the demo, I wanted it and all that hard work on the S licence was well worth it as I won a lot of races easily with that car.

[@pauls5745]

I settled for happiness with the road car version. still verry fast and smokes the AI everywhere

[@ChilledGemini99]

Awesome coverage for this guys!👌🏾

[@tevinhoward4419]

Fantastic cars to acquire and race to victory.

[@tomasstary1464]

The R30 racing skyline (won in the 80s car champ) is IMO the best car in races with 591 bhp cap (huge downforce and nothing beats it from 3rd gear up, wheelspin only on 1st gear with a bit longer gearing, low top speed of 300kmh so no test course tracks), the concept car LM edition is best for me at least, for NA tuned cup and the 542bhp limit international races, Unisia Skyline was used for Turbo tuned race on Test Course, due to high top speed (over 370kmh, beating the 180drag that goes around 350). And personally any uncapped race was dominated by the Escudo pikes peak edition (test course top speed 402kmh, although the 180 drag did 466, unbelievable handling, just looks ridiculous with that rear wing). Overall most of prize cars were useless, like the TVR speed 12 had unbelievable amount of wheelspin.

[@anthonylu1237]

The rally cars, they also become available in the Arcade Mode Disc. Theres no point trying to get rally cars in GT Mode. As the CR-X LM Edition (obtainable in IB Licence) can defeat every rally event, (except the pikes peak events when facing against an actual pikes peak car).

[@koya7273]

Tvr cerbera lm edition is one of the best handling cars in the game.

[@bFOURdwZEROlf]

Thanks for narrating this! I won all of these events probably 30 times each!
