Can You Beat Gran Turismo 2 Without Japanese Cars?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 май 2024
- Still on a Gran Turismo buzz and finishing GT2, I wanted to challenge myself to see if it was possible to beat the game without using Japanese cars. There are many cars from around the world in GT2 and it’d be a crime to ignore them (despite the heavy bias towards Japanese cars). But I had a good excuse to do it: I got sick with “it” and had nothing better to do.
Could I overcome being sick and make it to Gran Turismo World League?
Notes:
-Only the HKS Drag 180SX is possible to drive against in race 2 of Tuned Turbo Car No.1 Cup.

Next: Can you beat GT2 if every track is Apricot Hill?
NO.
The amount of varied non-Japanese cars in GT2 are criminally underrated. It’s just a shame that you can’t easily start out with any of them, and that 99.9% of the prize cars are just tuned Japanese variants…
you *could* start with a Fiat 500R if you really wanted to have a bad time
I really enjoy GT challenge runs, this was one of the best I have watched.
Hopefully you have time to do another, GT2 and GT4 are the best, I forgot how many odd variations of cars like the Miata Spec C were in GT2!
The GT2 A-Spec Mod makes doing a non-Japanese cars only run easier, the Dodge Neon ACR had it's price dropped to 9000 cr. and they added a 1st gen Renault Twingo for even less.
hmm, might have to look into that mod.
my concern is that it makes a game that's already easy even easier
@@squiddythekid3976There's also a few changes and additions to the campaign. IIRC the national events were given an overhaul, and at least two completely new events have been added (Like The Wind and a Renault manufacturer race, as of the current version).
@@squiddythekid3976 you honestly should. Also, you could use _actual_ GT300 and GT500 cars for each respective championship (GT300 Porsche, GT500 Diablo and McLaren F1) if you were to redo this challenge on that mod.
Heya, Komputer here.
I'm the director of the mod in question. I would love to see someone beat A-Spec with the various new cars added.
I am interested if you are interested in doing a video on A-Spec?
Ooh...I was not expecting that slashingly beautiful PS1 intro, that was class.
bro wangan midnight maximum tune music slaps 🤣
The beauty of this game is how the huge car roster opens the game up to a lot of experimentation.
Red Rock Valley is so underrated. It, and Apricot Hill, along with Midfield are probably my top3 all time GT tracks. No BS...That Dodge Concept Car LM Edition is one of the best cars in the game. That thing fllliiesss, and turns. It, the DelSol LM, and the Elise LM are my Top 3. That Opel Calibra LM is a hoot as well. Redline is like 12k lol
My favorite low cost car for this game was the Mercury Cougar XR-7, plenty powerful in stock form, and upgradable for a good amount of races
for the MR racing, just buy a clio V6 with all level 1 tuning and racing soft tire, easy to beat GT40 with
that doesn't seem to add up right...
I'm currently working on completing GT4 with only American cars using the Spec-A mod. You can buy American cars for under 10k with that.
Banger vid! Watched it while assembling an aluminum profile sim racing cockpit, still putting it together but you got a sub. Gonna check out more of your vids next. :}
A long video but your commentary was so funny
Oh god there is a Dodge Stratus in this game I forgot
I DRIVE A DODGE STRATUS
@@squiddythekid3976 I love that running gag.
Next up: can you finish gt2 with yellow cars only
This really shows how overpowered the Ford GT40 is in this game.
Did the same challenge a while ago on my second playthrough, i just cheated the licences as i didn't want to replay them, the hardest events imo were the gt300 which i beat using a race spec bmw 328 and a loooot of patience and the gt world championship in which i used the clk dtm that came with the save file for the licences (although i could have used the cerbera but i didn't like the car). If it wasn't for a couple of events where i used the shelby mustang and the Plymouth superbird i could classify my run as european only. Very good run btw! Glad to see someone enjoy the good old era of GT
26:49 - Strictly speaking, you _could_ use that using your own ruleset. It was Made in the UK and it is a Euro spec version (unlike the ironically named "Euro R"). So by using Acura, this is also technically valid.
The Renault Espace F1 is, literally, the *one* car I’m hoping to see in a current GT.
(Yes, there’s a LONG list of others, but the Espace F1 was always a personal favorite.)
Fun video; looking to start my GT grind from the ground up again someday…
Cheers!
Long live Gran Turismo.

The Ford GT40 Will always remain Legendary in its glory days against Ferrari.
Take a shot every time he said Cobra and Seattle
don't forget Speed 12
damn these yaris/vitz P1 made me feel old as f thats a 10 year old car in my head
Not that it matters for this challenge, but you _can_ beat the Escudo with the Cultus since the Cultus is faster off the line. You can also beat the GT40 in Historic Car Cup Race 2 with a tuned Lotus Elise-preferably the Sport 190.
The Cultus is Japanese also but I'm sure you can beat the Escudo with the race modded S4 or one of the AWD RUFs
@@azzii_x, or use the Tigra Ice Race Car.
Acura counting is bullshit and you know it baby
fiddlesticks
well, i only used 1 in the run, though
@@squiddythekid3976 reeeee
I agree with people saying that using Acura is cheating. You've got Honda engines, Honda parts, Honda suspension etc. Rebadged Japanese car.
figures. well, time to pull out the boxing gloves
@@squiddythekid3976 great content nonetheless! Keep up the videos. This inspired me to want to play GT2 for the first time myself. I had every one from 3 to 7.
Well that was the fastest fail I've seen for a challenge if you count that you had to drive a japanese car for the tests
you know that doesn't count 😆
Ah yes, GT2: Racism edition.
😂
All i want to see is someone that do this challengers but play fair, instead of like a NFS player...
you should try only using American made cars.. and yes using Acura is cheating for sure. no matter what you say its a Japanese car haha just because they make them here doesnt mean shit. That's like saying Volkswagen Beatles are Brazilian because they are made in brazil
to be fair, i only used 1 Acura
