If your region isn't set to Asia, then you can't get those cars. Hit RB and a menu will pop up, then you can change your region there. You're better off buying it on the auction house though, because it costs money to switch regions and it gets more expensive everytime.

Im not up on the times, but i did the "money hack" where you can buy the upgraded motor, and then sell it for more than it costs? Enough times to get me, err a sht ton of money.

Still havent went onto XBL yet, if I do does the game automatically patch that glitch up?

I wanted to get some cars I cant get in my region either (Im asia, what a fanboy) and couldnt figure out how, now I know.

You get a camaro or something, and buy the most upgraded motor, then quickly scroll back to stock and sell it or something, and you make back like 12grand?

A couple times the glitch glitched and I got double, lol.

Google it

If you try to play while signed in to XBL, it'll pretty much force you to update. If you don't update it, it won't let you play lol.

If you've updated your game at all since mid 2008, then no.

Yeah it's been dead for a while. I actually got lucky with it. I was trying to sell parts off my car quickly and actually discovered the glitch on my own. If I hadn't done that, I wouldn't have 300+ U999 cars in my garage right now

The Past and Present of Japanese Motorsport.

Turn 10 Staff, 8.11.2009

It’s a fine week for more automotive goodness in the form of a Pitpass Report here at Forzamotorsport.net. So to recap, let’s see where we’ve gone so far in our bi-weekly reveals of Forza Motorsport 3 as we speed down the road towards our first launch day in Japan on 10/22/09.
Turn 10 has shown you a handful of our new high-end cars via E3 2009; traveled to Le Mans, France, to unveil the Le Sarthe and Bugatti circuits of the legendary Le Mans track; gave you a glimpse into the world of Japanese tech, then Euro sport compacts on tracks like the new Catalunya and fan-favorite Nurburgring Nordschleife. American muscle was next on the gorgeous new Sedona Autopark Raceway. In-between all of these car and track reveals was info about single-player career mode, drag racing, and more in our Pitpass Report Podcast.*
And now, we bring the car enthusiasts in our community another little gift in the form of JDM Icons. The seven cars we’re revealing this week represent both the past and future of Japanese motorsport. From classics such as the Datsun 510 to the first-gen Miata roadster, through more modern track beasts like the Nismo R390 and the Acura ARX-02a LMP car, we here at Turn 10 tip our hats to our fellow petroheads across the Pacific.
Forzamotorsport.net will continue to reveal new cars in this series of Pitpass Reports to check back often for new updates. Enjoy!
See the official Screenshot gallery here.


Forza Motorsport 3: JDM Icons

1970 Nissan/Datsun 510
Produced from 1968 to 1973 the boxy Datsun 510 created a strong cult following fueled by its performance on the track. Powered by a 96-horsepower L16 four-cylinder backed by a four-speed manual gearbox, the 510’s strength was its unibody construction and independent rear suspension. Under the Brock Racing Enterprises Banner, driver John Morton won back-to-back Trans Am 2.5 series championships in his patriotic red, white and blue #46 in 1971 and 1972. Still highly desirable today, it shouldn’t take much to transform a Dime into a serious contender. 96- horsepower has never been more fun.
1984 Celica Supra
Feeling old school? The ’84 Celica Supra, a MKII edition in the Supra’s lineage, sports a 2.8-liter 5M-GE rated at 160 horsepower in ’84. The inline six-cylinder engine is stout and able to handle all types of mods but the car has no discernable racing pedigree so you will have to step up to the plate and create one from scratch. Remember overcoming the challenge will only make you stronger.
1994 Mazda Miata
One of the most raced cars in America, the Miata roadster combines a light chassis, modern suspension and extremely balanced weight distribution to create an agile lightweight spec-monster in Forza 3. The ’94 model features a bigger, 1.8-liter engine than the earlier 1990 to ’93 models. With its affinity for the track there will be many hard-hitting tuning options for the Miata, which packs a much bigger punch than its diminutive size may indicate – especially if you strap on a blower beneath the hood.

1994 Celica GT-Four ST205
Jump a decade down the road and the Celica and Supra have gone their own separate ways. This Celica has plenty of racing heritage to draw upon and may be one of the biggest sleepers in Forza 3. The Celica GT-Four took WRC driver’s titles in ‘92, ‘93 and ’94. The 1994 Celica GT-Four ST205 puts all that experience on the street. It features a turbocharged and intercooled 3S-GTE four cylinder, rated at 225 horsepower, all-wheel drive, lightweight aluminum body parts and the heart of a champion.


2009 Scion xDAnother B-segment buzz bomb, the Scion xD is a powerhouse amongst its peers, generating 128 horses from its 1.8 liters of displacement. But one has to wonder if the car is in a “big fish in a small pond” scenario. Can the little xD compete with more performance-minded machines? The challenge here is maximizing the Scion’s potential in the tuning garage and taking a “drive it like you stole it” approach on the analog stick/wheel.


Acura ARX-02a #66 de Ferran Motorsports
Generate some serious Gs in this American Le Mans Series prototype machine. Assume the role of Acura team drivers Gil de Ferran and Simon Pagenaud and take this LMP1-class Acura to the edge. The car’s open cockpit design, high-revving 4.0-liter, 620+ horsepower LM-AR7 V8 and lightweight chassis and purpose-built suspension make for a visceral driving experience. Whether you roll with the Acura’s black-and-green Patrona livery or dial-up your own color scheme with Forza 3’s new ability to now completely re-paint and makeover any race car, the ARX-02a is a can’t-miss proposition.

1997 #23 Nismo R390
Go the distance behind the controls of a 24 Hours of Le Mans legend. With a 641-horsepower, twin-turbo 3.5-liter V8 hovering a touch of the Y button away, Forza drivers will be in awe of this long-tailed endurance racer. This car finished 12th overall and fifth in class at the Circuit de la Sarthe. Can you drive the R390 and its eye-catching red-and-black livery to the victory it should have had a decade ago? See you on the podium.
