Okay, so I still enjoy LFS from time to time. But I have a "ricer/tuner" side too. However, I hardly enjoy Need For Speed ProStreet, and the Tokyo Extreme Racer series is getting old now.

So, what games fulfill at least some of my needs?
- Car livery editing, really editing, no preset vinyl crap.
- Contains mostly Japanese cars, but varied models.
- Has a somewhat "simulation" feel, but quick to pick up.
- Parts customization, ie. varying tyre types, rear wings, etc.
- Starting grid of twelve cars or greater.
- Online.
- Mountain road ("touge") and "normal" circuit races.
- PC is a big plus.

midnight club? but no pc...

Rigs of rods has 6 out of those 8 needs.

Maybe check out this thread for some ideas.

Forza 2 sounds like something you'd enjoy, but that's not for the PC sadly

Try Project Torque: http://project-torque.aeriagames.com/download

I have no idea what it's like but you can look at some Youtube videos. It has some well known Japanese cars like the NSX, STi, Lancer, Skyline, few Civics, and a Sprinter Trueno.

Forza 2 ticks most of those boxes.

I have no idea what it's like but

it`s really nice. physics are kind of simulator-ish. i like it.

NFS Carbon?

What's the best SLRR-community, if I want to go look for some cars/texture upgrades etc.?
I basically don't know nothing about SLRR, and my google searches doesn't give me what I want.

Found that myself afterwards, but thanks.

What mods for visual upgrades, texture updates, new cars etc. should I then go for? I can't really figure that site out. I wasn't able to find any topics for recommended downloads or anything like that on the forum as well.
