Default GT3 question

1) In GT1 and GT2 when you buy a car and upgrade it, the last option available is to change the car's look (sticker and a new paint scheme). How do you do this on GT3? I got a Lancer RS upgrade to the max but I cant find the paint job upgrade. BTW I only got the first 3 licences, you think that might be it?

2) Guys with the wheel, does the wheel sometimes shut off the force feedback on you in the middle of gameplay?

it has nothing to do with the licenses...(i have gold in all of them and i have no option for this) i'm going to say that there is no option to do this in the game this time around...i kinda miss it cause sometimes i get some ugly ass cars to compete in a special event and i would just like to make it look better. if someone figures out how this is done let us know. also there's a lot less cars in the game this time...good thing about the last time around was how many different cars you could choose from...like from VW the only options you have are the Lupo and Beetle...no Jetta/GTI/Passat or anything else...kinda sux too.

Can't answer #1. But on #2, I get seemingly random system lock-ups where the direction is nearly stuck and the buttons are unresponsive (gee, I thought the PS2 wasn't a Bill Gates product). It may just be overheating since it is off in a corner with crap piles around it. I haven't had vibration "latching" except playing Oni.

1) no optional racing bodies/paint schemes in GT3. The car models are way more complex, they didn't have time to add all those.

There are come cars available that come with race bodies and paint, though.

Penforhire, I got that too! It's exactly as you said - the wheel suddenly gets stuck and nothing responds. I usually exit the race and reset the system.

Damn.... I was really looking forward in seeing all the cars with different color schemes, oh well. At least I can change the rims.

I've had the erratic wheel syndrome a number of times. The solution I've found is to unplug it from the PS2 then plug it back in.
