Hahaha surfboard (tries to imagine the Hiace racing with a surfboard tied to its roof)

By the way my Corolla just got some updates (color and rank):

a wing... =p better than aero a... =P

what say you all about the handling, acceleration and top speed of the hiace?

nah aero b is jus another normal aero set, so i kept with A lol.

handling hiace is suprisingly ok. not as bad as i thought it would be. acceleration = terrible, it's really hard finding the shift points. but at 820 i shift at 200kmph and 280kmph. top speed = apparently the fastest in the game.

sailor enlil, how would you rate the corolla?

i just got my full tuned today, have yet to do some battles

Hey guys I just encountered a Hiace with a hilarious bodykit. No it's not a surfboard, but it's close - it's CAMPING GEAR! (includes a picnic basket, a cooler, a tent, and a long pole, all tied to the roof) I get the feeling it's Aero Set C

@kaitagsd

Overall it's a challenging car to drive. If you master it it's a good racer, but it's quite tricky perhaps because it's FWD.

it's aero a sailor

Oh it's Set A?
Still looks hilarious in a race (like those stuff are going to fall off and wreck havoc on the road)

^ yeah its pretty funny because if you get infront of the player ur battling they cant see infront of you. like the actually cant see. lol.

lol i should get a hiace just for the purpose of getting camping gear!!

How would you guys rate the aristo taxi? Would it be hard to be unshaded?

Why do people act stupid? Tell me. Why do people act so stupid? Mabe I'm being a hypocrite.

welcome to the real world

Handling : 4/5
Accel : 3/5
Top Speed : 5/5

I have a HiAce. It's really fast on Wangan/Yokohane Line (on straights with a 815/820HP setup). Hope this helps


MagixMan

more like accel = 1/5. its just as bad as the fc

Is the HiAce middleweight or heavyweight?

Its AWD for the 100th time...

Lemme check the local machines to be sure. Otherwise that would make the Corolla an exception where all the other cars' layouts are based on their real life counterparts (no real Corolla has ever had an AWD layout - it was FR up to the 90's after which it became FF; even the Corolla WRC used in Rallying is FWD). In fact the only AWD car Toyota has ever built was the Celica up to 1999, after which it too became purely FWD.

well heres a test, in the game if you see 4 tire lines when you turn, it's awd.



so the hiace is? rwd? anybody?

The Corolla wagon had an 4WD option since the 80's, so did a few sedans and diesel models. I honestly can't beleive, you built one yourself and played through the whole game, how the hell can you no know its drivetrain? At least with me I got mine for free and transfered it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Corolla

AE84 Wagon - 4WD (USA)
AE94 Sedan - 4WD (JPN)
AE95 Wagon - 4WD (JPN/USA)
AE104 Sedan - 4WD (JPN)
E-114 Sedan - 4WD (JPN)
E-115 Wagon - 4WD (JPN)
NZE120 Sedan - 4WD (JPN)
Corolla Matrix XR Wagon - 4WD (USA/JPN)

Seriously, if you don't want to fail as hard as you did right now, then do some serious research.

Ok so there were 4WD Corollas I'll give you that. Still, what specific model of Corolla is in WMMT3? At least by its tail lights I can't find a match from the known 4WD sedans (or perhaps because I changed it to Aero Set C), the last of which was listed in the Wiki site among the 90's models.

By my own experience, the Corolla I have in WMMT3 doesn't seem to handle like a 4WD at all. Half my cars are 4WD - GTO, Evo8, GDBC, R34, Mazda6, and all those but the R34 are very grippy like they drive on rails; my Supra RZ and R34 slide a lot, with the S30Z, Z33, and Corolla somewhere in between (in fact the Corolla felt very much like the real Corolla I used to drive in real life - a 1993 FWD sedan - when I drove it hard enough).

hahahaha. Kudos.


The corolla in the game is a japanese/australian release one. The awd one. Although I think the AWD is the japanese release one while the aussie one is fwd. that I'm not too sure of.

And, the wrc one is 4wd. only the jwrc ones are FF.

the corolla in the game is this one


same as the runx corolla. body equivalent here in the philippines is the altis zz chassis, except for the awd layout. still have to see here with that conversion.

Think about it, the Corolla is a small, underpowered, gas saving econobox champ with a simple 4WD. Its not made to race so why would it grip the road better than a rally bred Evo/SIi or hit 347km's easily like the beasts that are the GTO and GT-R's, just think about it...

When you look at what is being pushed beyond its absolute limits, you will understand why its so hard to get this car to do what is so much easier for every other car.

Actually it's more like this:

With cars like the Supra and S30 (RWD), if I turn suddenly into a corner and slide, the car swings around and its butt hits the outside wall, or its nose clips the inner wall (i.e. like oversteer; happened to one RWD car I drove for real, at least I didn't collide with anything then fortunately); cars like the R34 (4WD) tends to plow sideways into the outside wall if I take the curve too fast (neutral steer); the Corolla on the other had acts more like it wants to plow into the outside wall nose first if I go too fast, like the real Corolla I drove (which was FWD, and such cars are known to understeer).
