oh believe me..this game is as addictive as it gets...not only does the techno music rock...but also the drift action as well as the 6-speed manual gear changing...

i used to play it on auto...but after this game..i learnt how to change gears properly...

without the clutch pedal though...

yeh, i heard bout one on ps2 however its only available in japan :D

wish that game included sum nitrous in there...but driving at 320km/h is still great fun..try it whenever u see them machines at the arcades...but make sure u got enuf coins to last u 30 mins (usually 20 bucks worth)

if you live in melbourne you can pickup a copy of wangan midnight for PS2 at the store 'Initial D' on russel st

you'll need a chipped PS2 and unless you understand japanese the story mode might be a bit of a waste.. but still.. very cool game

apparently the arcade machine was a big success in the states

its actually based on a manga which is based on an old live action TV series

hehe

Yeah I think I played it. But it's all in japanese right? The one I played was all in japanese and I found it hard to choose my car (accidently chose toyota celica). Anyway these games are too expessive to play form the old fasion $1 games to these $2.20 I payed 20 dollars and all went away in a few games.

lolz, yeh they are expensive to play

but $2.20? i never knew arcade machines took silver coins

nah, the version i played was all in english so it was alright..although the characters dialogue is quite stupid "i feel the endurance through my veins" sure u do buddy..sure u do

anyways...has anyone played it? i need sum tips on how to play better in this game...

i cant tune the r34 anymore, its maxed out

i've played it..a few games worth on my last visit to Toronto.

it's very fun to play.

my advice for you to get better in this game, is to go out and buy a copy of Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 (or is it still known Tokyo Highway Battle in AUS ?). that game will allow you to learn the Tokyo Highway system so when you play Wangan Midnight, you'll already know the highway.

when i played it, i had a blast roaming the highway with my black FC. i found it to be a little too easy though (although it's likely that way because i played TXR3 for far too long). even bought a card.

i sitll think Initial D is more fun to play though.

Does anyone know how or where to get the soundtrack of this game at? You cant tell me the music doesnt kick ass. Ive been trying to find it somewhere for download if anyone has any information would be great. Ive already tried their main site and it seems they only give out small clips of the music every tuesday or so. so help me out people

no, but if you find it...please relay the download link to us on SAU forums as well..

LOL

i like this soundtrack, it's a good contrast from the dancey songs from Initial D. Wangan features a lot of Rock music.

    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
    • Thanks for sharing this, and BTW if your headlights are in good condition they are worth thousands....you might want to consider replacing them with brand new LED ones like this (https://www.nengun.com/78works/full-led-headlights-r32-skyline) and making enough profit to buy a house in Sydney
    • I'm not sure what sort of shops are nearby, but I'd expect any reasonable exhaust shop could put a cat in it that will not restrict the power that engine makes. Otherwise, if you want to remove it, short lengths that replace the cat are readily available online, search for "de-cat pipes" or "test pipes"
