I remember grinding out sunday cup with the trueno and getting a viper gts the moment I got 80k credits. Upgraded it to max and got the S license before farming tons of credits in the like the wind race and selling the 787b for 500k a piece. Good times!

A good demonstration of how to use trades to tune cars for free, though there's a few things I'd like to add: - About the money grind at the start: if you buy NA tuning stage 1 after winning the Apricot Hill race once, the AE86 can beat the other two races in the event (as long as the MR-S isn't in the line-up in race 3; exit and re-enter the race until it isn't there) along with the FR and 80's events. Turning off ASM and lowering TCS will make the car much faster around corners also. Makes the early game a lot more enjoyable compared to doing the same race over and over. Also saves time later in the playthrough as you'll have more events completed, plus you get prize cars like the CR-X, Silvia K's and FC RX-7 quite early. If you don't need them, sell them to fund more upgrades. - It seems like you changed the oil of the AE86 at some point, but you didn't mention or show it. For those who don't know, changing the oil of a brand-new car temporarily raises its power by 5%. - It's possible to beat European Championship in 3 races, skipping both Grand Valley and Monaco, therefore making 38,055 credits per lap. How it works is, if you drive to 1st place before exiting the race, the 10 points are forfeited and the 5 AI cars are awarded points for their positions at the time of exit. You need to ensure that the same car doesn't always come 2nd in each race though, or you'll tie in points at the end of the series (5 x 6 = 30 vs. 3 x 10 = 30) and the game will favour the AI. So, before exiting the race at Grand Valley, if there's a car that has 12 points, push it off-course so it falls behind, then get to 1st place and exit. It makes resetting race 5 a little slower since you need to drive to 1st before exiting the race, but it's still much faster than doing 3 laps of Grand Valley. - I saw you mention in a few replies that getting all golds in the B licence for the free Miata is a bit too skill-intensive for this video's audience. Personally I'd say it's not that difficult and a great learning experience, even for casual players. Yes, it's not the fastest way to start the game, but it's very satisfying and rewarding. The game gets a lot more difficult later on if you drive in automatic (S-8 in particular), so learning to drive in manual early on in these tests really helps. Also, reverse shifting (using the reverse button to gear up) makes most of the tests very easy. It's just B-8 that's challenging, especially on PAL, but getting gold on that test teaches you a lot about the game's driving mechanics with ASM and TCS turned off. Definitely easier than the time trials where you need to know how to drive fast in rally and also learn Complex String's entire layout. I know this video was mostly focused on ways to quickly make money in GT3, but just wanted to put that info out there for anyone who's interested.

Bro! You up here giving how to on a 20 year old game! Gotta love it! I have been showing my son-in-law some gt3 and really glad I found your video! Good Stuff! He's just coming over from XB so it's all new to him, thanks again

POV: You don't have 2 memory cards

Nice man thanks I just bought a PS2 and this game came with it. A win, win. Do some more bro 👍

After all these years ive never thought of doing these tips, thanks matey good video

Great video man!! I just started playing this game after 16 years and I have none of my old saves but this should help me catch back up pretty quick! 😉

Let me tell you the strategy I had... 1) dont buy a car 2) pass with golden times only b licence 3) modify the given miata (to the point that you can easily win the next events) 4) win Sunday cup, club man, fr, spider and roadster and sell all those prize cars except miata... 5) win some more money by repeating races (anything you like from these 4 events) 6) buy an evo and modify it max to rally spec 7) pass rally licences 8) since you have a max tuned evo win any of 3 rally races till u get a rally car ( I choose first the Swiss Alps that give you the peugeot 206) 9) put the biggest turbo on the rally car you got (I choose to win the peugeot 206 rally car) 10) win easily the other rally events 11) now you have got the mighty ESCUDO!!! 12) get special licence 13 upgrade escudo turbo to max and buy hard slick tyres 14 go to professional races and win like the wind 15 win other races in other categories with the cars you already have in order to save money( like 4wd in all difficulties....)

I like how people are still making videos about this game

I used to have a magazine that had guides to this game and Zelda Oracle of Seasons. Your strategy was almost identical to the magazine's, only they suggested after getting the upgraded Evo, to do the Super Speedway endurance race until you win an F1 car, then you could REALLY dominate the rest of the game, and as much as I like your strategy, this would've really helped back when I was a teen when I couldn't do some of the tougher races. Nowadays, I think the better strategy, even though it's frustrating as hell, is to gold all the licenses, and beat the Arcade Time Trials, and get the free cars from those! the MX-5 you get from B license helps you in the roadster endurance with super hard tires, the Impreza Rally prototype can do the rally races, the Esperante can dominate the Super Speedway endurance, among others.

Thank you so much. I started this today and was doing a different strat involving the MX-5, but I'll use the grinded money I have from doing the Spider and Roadster's first race and two clean memory cards and then eventually put that Trueno on my main memory card.

Nice, I was already doing these exact steps over 20 years ago except for the trading between saves.

Thanks dude this was a fantastic method I just finished it 👍👍👍

Man it took a lot of dirty racing and save states but once you get the Camaro it's a breeze, thank you very much!

Thanks for the tips man, I'm still playing this on an emulator and that's pretty helpful, I didn't realize how much that car was worth despite already having unlocked it, and I'm not even using it 😅 I'm just a hoarder and I don't like selling my cars, so I'll go get some duplicates to pad the balance

fantastic content!

This game is still one of the best driving games out there.

I can't remember the track I used to farm when this game came out but it was so good, not for the prize money but from the car you won, it was worth like 175k and the race was so quick lol wish I remembered

This Vertigo car is pretty decent, it has good acceleration and handling. I'm using it against cars with more HP and still wins. There is also the Red emblem amateur event which rewards 30k for a 3 laps race, not as efficient but still good, it's more than the professional one which give 25k for 10 laps race.

Buy a supra rz. Fully upgrade it. Go th the turbo race on the test track. Map the accelerator the the right analog stick and get an elastic band to hold it up, and that's it. The car will bounce off the barriers but won't spin, you will come back about 15 mins later and you will have come first

The beetle cup is pretty decent for cash, 35k from winning all races+championship, 17.5k for selling the prize car (all 4 are the same) you can purchase the beetle as a starter car so this strategy can still work

All I remember was my most important cars to help me progress being: the TVR Griffin, Ford Mustang and Nissan Skyline GT-R r32 or 33 (1989). Those 3 cars do a lot in game kitted out making some races too easy, the Viper gts is a good pick too once fully kitted out 💯

GT3 is tough and grinding XD Still a fun game though! And awesome you play part 3 in 2022-2023!

I ran the Skyline championship in Amateur Hall, $30k in 5 minutes (or less, if you use a GT500 GTR for example) AFAIK

Make more, I got my copy of the physical game a few months back and a PS2 from one of my class mates, I really need to up my game on the credits fromt

Nice!👍👍

I have 2 strategy for GT3 for the best start at the game. First strategy is get all license in gold but that requires some skills. The second strategy is get the license (doesnt matter if not gold), purchase a Mazda MX-5 and do the Apricot Hill endurance race, 40 lap. You'll get 100k and if lucky, you might get a F688S/Polyphony002 or another Miata.

Ah never actually thought about using the classic trade trick in this game XD

if you play the pal version, you can get 10 million credits by beating gran turismo concept 2002

You will need your class A license for this but in the amateur league if you finish the FR cup (250-300hp event) you will win the Toyota sprinter GT apex shegeno version which sells for 125,000cr. Also the NA cup is a 3 event series worth 15,000cr each and the prize car is the Mazda RX-8 which sells for 75,000cr. Thats really good money early in the game.

I do the best method: i buy toyota supra and upraded to 940hp and i play turbo races on amateur races and i make 100000 dollars

The beginning of the Amateur League is so much fun! You can win up to 4 (one road car) race cars from the American championship to the Touring Car championship!

Use your fastest car on the first race for 1k per win at roughly 2:45min per race. To realize I did the race over 60 times before finding a better strat 😂😅

I vaguely remember getting the Escudo and found some circular endurance track *HANDS FREE!* I put an *Elastic Band* on the analogue stick so it was always turning right, then put something heavy on the gas button. Walk away and later its done hundreds of laps without me. Anyone render this?

I know there's cheat mod on psx2 but this way doesn't feel like a cheat. its just a loophole the game didn't think about when it came out. Now to do more research on the best cars for the different races in category from armature, rally, professional and so on. thanks for the tips.

this is awesome man! thanks for sharing… just found my copy of GT3 and didn’t think to try this type of trick out. If i’m already mid-game, I assume the trick still works? Then when i’m satisfied with it, I can just save on both cards?

@1:58, I don't get it, this only makes sense to do if your upgrades you bought are worth more than the car, right?

I only have one ps2 memory card 😭

when you win the vertigo race car and sell it, do you just complete the series race again in order to re-roll for the vertigo?

cool trick

I wish i would've knew/known about this as an kid

I always thought that the unlimited car prize thing breaks the game, car prizes should only be able to be earned once

Don't forget to change the oil right after you buy a new car for an extra few HP for free. ❤

Everytime i play a series race i win a price car? Or just once per series?

How did u pass the the first na race with the sprinter it’s sooo slow even after the upgrades I was getting destroyed by a Miata or a Mr-s

i used to hate this game because i didnt know how to turn good and would always end up in last and still do and have no idea how to get better

« Just get the B license » Bro I’m struggling with that

What song is that at the end?

its funny that in gt4 is as simple winning one event and you just getting a 300k car with a b license

Still doesn't quite compare to the RSC Rally Raid Car trick in GT4, which nets you an eye-watering _68,906_ credits per lap with a less involved setup, but still an impressive payout!

Sadly doesn’t work on backwards compatible PS3s...

But does this work on the PS2? Still have the game, just asking lol.

Pra ganar licencia cual es el truco saludos

日本版では1500000しかないのに海外版だと1800000あるのかむかつくな

How dare you make boot this game back up.

A north american copy of Gran Turismo 3. Why not use the Pal Version.

amateur european, get and sell the vertigo car

fake accent, Australia doesn't exist, prove me wrong
