i think it needs to be said that this is not a racing game.
i am disappoint. it would have been so much cooler if it had been. and this translation is horrible. what's up with calling a elise elite, a cayman lexington and a evo harpoon? all they had to do was read the logos on the cars in the movie if they're don't know about cars.
Those weren't translation errors. JASTUSA had to INTENTIONALLY change the car names in the text to avoid having to pay licensing fees. They also did that with the first game. I've got a patch that fixes the name for the second game up.

And some of the changes turned out to be derpy, since they either unintentionally changed one real manufacturer name (
Toyota) to another real one (
Toda), or the same thing happened with the model name
(minor case:
Elise ->
Elite)
(MAJOR case:
RX-8 ->
XR8)
The original and changed names may look similar, but each refer to different cars. The first case was within the same maker. The second case featured completely fucking different cars from completely different makers.
It doesn't stop there. One car's electronic equipment, The Evo VIII's Active Yaw Control, got changed into the non-sensical Active Yoke Control.
