| Easier drag wins | 98% | |
| To get to higher gears quicker in drag races, tap L1 repeatedly as needed to increase the RPM to the appropriate level to switch the gear. This also lessens the full force of the nitrous to lower the chance of burning the engine out. While drag racing, once you get into fourth gear use your nitrous. Your meter will shoot up into the red zone. Now, switch gears and get a perfect shift. You will get more speed when you do this. You can do this as long as you have nitrous. Keep tapping the nitrous button at start of the race. | ||

| Easy drift points | 98% | |
| Simply stay behind a car and watch the points rack up. Turn off the stability control by going into options and selecting "Car". This will make the car drift easier. As you progress through the levels, the score required to win the drift competitions get higher, especially when you have upgraded your car's handling. Before you enter the drift competitions, go into "Customize Car" and "Setup". For example, go to the engine upgrade section and refit stock tires to your chosen wheels. This will make drifting much easier. As you approach a bend with a bit of speed, back off the throttle, turn into it, and return to full throttle. With practice you can earn 50,000 style points on the figure of 8 style track. *** Do not forget to refit the better tires before entering a street race. | ||

| When you are in drift mode you can get some extra points for doing doughnuts. Hold one direction and the handbrake and gas and let go of the handbrake after a second. You'll just sit there and do doughnuts. This won't get you massive points but it's something. | ||

Depending on how good you are, you will unlock rewards every time you fill your meter, which does not take too long. Also, go to quick race mode and choose any circuit. Set it to five laps with maximum cars on. Now, just get near misses in a row to get a large amount of points. Once your reputation goes up you can make 20,000 points in one go around. | ||

When your car jumps over another car, the street glow will not appear on the car that you are over. When your car flips to its side and is on a wall, the street glow will not appear on that wall. | ||

| Shortcuts | 98% | |
| Look for alternate routes on your in-game map while driving. These can get you ahead of an opponent easily or shave off seconds on your timer. They will look like another road on the map, but sometimes are narrower. Most of the time these shortcuts will be hard to see or take, and can be extremely risky. At the beginning of the races that take place in front of the prison Samantha told you to race to for a reward, when the race starts, crash in the gate of the prison. It is an underground shortcut. *** This only works after the race in which Samantha tells you to race to the prison in time for a reward. | ||

The Miata will now have the 20s that the Skyline had in it. Do not try to install any other rims on your new car because the rims will go back to the maximum sized allowed. | ||

Press Nitrous at the start of a race to purge your nitrous for 150 style points. Unlock the Toyota Celica in split screen/quick race mode and successfully complete the 1st tournament in underground mode. Go to "Customize Ride" at the MAIN MENU and select the Toyota Celica. Select the "Performance" option and equip your new engine, tires and drivetrain. It does not matter what brand package you choose for them. Return to the menu where you choose from "Visual", "Performance", etc. Choose "Visual", then equip your vehicle with parts from all of these options (though putting decals, painting, and placing vinyl on the vehicle is not necessary). Do not use any default parts. If your vehicle does not have a 2 star reputation rating or more, then you may have forgotten an option. *** In the body section, the last option may be locked; it is not necessary for this trick. Return to the MAIN MENU and select "Quick Race", then "Drift Race". Select your Celica. Select the square track (should already be highlighted), and set the difficulty to medium and lap number to 10. You should be able to easily get "Great Drifts", and if you are good enough, you can get "Superb Drift" and "Colossal Drift" ratings occasionally. You will get a lot of style points for doing these drifts. This is an easy way to get style points early in the game. Also try to do drifts around corners in the bonus zone areas rather then doing drifts throughout the track. Go to quick race, then select "Drift" and use the little square track. Keep doing this to win vinyls, cars like Eddie's Skyline, the Mystikal car, and more. Once you have unlocked the orange Acura Type R in Underground mode, use it in regular quick race and win. Doing this will multiply your style points by five because this Acura has five reputation stars. Your style points gauge will fill up quicker, allowing you to unlock other things faster. | ||

| The stats on the performance bars are not all that count. The Mazda RX-7 is extremely responsive. Quick movements and the ability to get yourself out of tight jams is what wins the race. The Mazda RX-7 responds very quickly and can help you out a lot with dodging cars and making it through quick S turns. The RX-7 may not have as good of a turning radius as the Skyline, but this can be compensated by holding the gas and pressing the brake at the same time while in a turn. This may bring your speed down a bit, but it also tightens your turning radius. Use this tactic when speeding through one of the tunnels with poles in the middle. Do not be discouraged by the poor start of the RX-7. This car will make up for it with its phenomenal top speed and ability to turn quickly. Objects always appear at a set distance ahead of you. At high speeds this will only give you a small instant for you to react and for your car to respond to your commands. The RX-7 responds faster than the Skyline, and therefore gives you a definite advantage at high speeds. It also turns more tightly at low speeds. It is also a good tool to use in Drift challenges because it is a light rear wheel drive. When you go sideways, the tires will just keep spinning as you drift. There is no need to use the handbrake with this car in drift mode except to slow yourself down -- you will continue to accelerate a lot with this car in drifts. Because drifting does not slow the car down (as long as you hold the gas), it is easy to go into a wall. There is no other car that can make it all the way around the 3/4 circle in a perfect 3/4 circle without losing speed. Do not use stock tires with the fully souped up RX-7 in drift mode, as the car is extremely slick on the ground (light rear wheel drive). | ||

| In Underground mode, take a VW Golf and upgrade it performance-wise as much as possible. Trade it in for a Nissan Skyline (or the best car unlocked so far), then downgrade the new car to stock. Trade it in for a Golf and you should make a profit (about $6,000 each time). You can use the money to buy more upgrade for regular mode if you want to play with the parts or are stuck in Underground mode. To earn a profit of about $5,500 or more (depending on how far you are in Underground mode), follow these steps. Go to Underground mode and enter the "Customize Ride" menu. Now, select the "Trade" option and trade your car for a Mazda RX-7. If you already have it as your car, skip this step. Downgrade all of your performance upgrades to stock. Now, go back to the "Trade" option and trade your car for a Volkswagen Golf GTI. Now, put all of your performance upgrades back onto the Golf GTI and trade your car for the Mazda RX-7. If done correctly, you should gain a profit of at least $5,500. Repeat those steps as many times as desired. In a short time you should have at least $30,000. | ||

| Well at first I used the nissan 2406 wich helped me up to stage 3! I then used the hyundai coupe until I got the toyota supra. The toyota supra is one of the best cars in the game. I used that and had 124,000 cash to spend when I got my skyline. I did it up to the max and won the game with ease. another good way for gaining NOS is reversing then swinging the front end around doing a J-turn which gives you 500points. To win the game you must be patient as some races are really irritating...(when this happens I take 15min break after 3trys) One more thing, to win outruns easy I either spin them out by clipping their back end then full NOS it or slam them into a wall where they will get stuck or a car. Ahh well I hope this helped you and goodluck! :) | ||
