About ++++++++ This FAQ was originally made beacause of the huge amounts of interest in custom made ships in F-Zero GX. Since at the time there wasn't any parts FAQ made, and because of many requests, I have decided to make one. I find that some custom ships may be created to fit your playing styles, further adding to the game. I hope you find this FAQ helpful and be creative! +++++++++++ B. E-mail me ++++++++++++ If you have any questions, comments, or something you found wrong in the FAQ, please e-mail me at my e-mail address at XDark_KnightX@hotmail.com. To help me give credit, please include your GameFAQ's Alias, or another kind of one. Your help will be credited, and your comments are appreciated. +++++++++++++++++ C. Version History ++++++++++++++++++ - Version 0.5 8/29/03 Started the FAQ. The basic layout is done. Not all the information is done yet. Still have a bit to go until first version. - Version 0.9 8/31/03 I fixed the Parts FAQ layout a lot so it's much more readable. Added some parts, but some of them still require a weight listing. Added a "Cost" listing (in case anyone wondered). Added a "Tips" section under "Combinations". Just started it not much there. Got master difficulty and beat ruby. Beat 2 chapters on hard. Got a few AX parts. Added the huge list produced by Active X (Thanks!!). I think I completed the list, although I think 3 parts are still missing. - Version 1.0 12/4/03 It's been a while from the last update, I know. I received quite a few E-mails and decided to update once again. I posted a lot of peoples machinea and I'm planning to test them very soon. I'll post the results in a couple of days hopefully. I touched up the organization and layout. Fixed a few random things. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | III.

Parts, Parts, Parts ++++++++++++++++++++++ Custom parts is a new feature in the F-Zero series. It allows you to make your own ships accustomed to your playing styles so you can race better. It also allows you to be creatIVe! So I encourage everyone to make their own ships. When you first start the game you should notice that you automatically have 12 parts already: 4 bodies, 4 cockpits, and 4 boosters (look at the list below to see which ones). 1. How to acquire parts: The first thing you need to do is finish a cup on any difficulty to make the part become available. After you finish the cup, you will know a part has become available when a message pops up stating that a certain part is available. Once you get back to the main screen, you go to the "Customize" option. After that go to the subset, "F-Zero Shop". Then, finally, to "Custom Parts". Here you will see a menu with the parts; starting with Body, then Cockpit, then Booster. All the way to the right of the list are numbers. These numbers are the ticket prices. I have not quite determined why some are higher priced than others, but I assume it's because they are the best of its class (ex: theres a 500 kg level B booster, then theres a 400 kg level B booster. You would rather want the lower weighing one or your ship may end up too heavy) or maybe because they are heavier in weight. BTW if you are low on tickets, I suggest you race the easy cups first, then go to time trial for easy tickets. in time trial, all you have to do is get a decent time. 2. Putting your ship together: Now comes the hard part. Instead of going to "F-Zero Shop", go to "Garage" (Please note the awesome music). Now you have four choices on spots for ships.(For tips in putting your ship together, please refer to the Combinations/Tips part of my FAQ) 3. The Low-Down: There are a total of 63 parts. 21 in each category. 11 GX parts in each category, 9 AX parts in each category, then there's 3 other parts. You can unlock 5 parts in Novice Difficulty, then you can unlock 7 in standard and above, then you can unlock 9 in master. AX parts can be unlocked by defeating Hard mode in all the chapters. Each time you beat a chapter on Hard, you receive 3 AX parts. Then, each time you defeat Grand Prix on Master difficulty, you receive 3 parts. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | IV. Combinations / | F-Zero -------------------- \ / -------- This part of the FAQ wil cover some of the combinations of parts to make some of the more exceptional machines and some tips on how to make one on your own. +++++++ A. Tips +++++++ This section should hopefully convey some of the ideas of what you should or should not do when making a ship. 1. PLEASE! Do not think an A A A ship is the best. It is the opposite. It is too heavy to be good. 2. I found that a car in the 1100 - 1700 kg range is the best car, becuase it doesn't slip. Anything after that, its too havy (slippage), and anything before would mean you have crappy parts on that won't perform too well. 3. Choose parts that fit your playing style. If you feel that you don't hit the wall too much, then pick a low rated body, etc. The lower the weight you can find that best fits your needs the better. 4. Try all different combinations! The best car you may ever race might be a D B C, you never know. 5. Finally, try out every car. If you feel you have an easy time handling cars no matter what, then have a car that would slip at times, but awesome in all other areas. +++++++++++++++++++++++ B. Special Custom Ships +++++++++++++++++++++++ This is a list of special machines you can make when you combine certain parts together to make a special design with a special name. Since the parts fit together specially for these machines some of them are pretty good...and some are really bad.

Custom Machines / | F-Zero ---------------------- \ / -------- ++++++++++++ Frost Lynx-64 +++++++++++++ I no longer use it, because I myself have found better combinations, but here is an example of a decent machine and good for beginners, Frost Lynx-64. It uses: Body: Aqua Goose Cockpit: Super Lynx Booster: Titan -G4 Stats: Body - C Grip - B Boost - B Weight: 1700 kg I found that this machine is very fast and very good steering Immediately after I started using It. The best way is to calibrate It to full or next to max speed. So far this is the best machine yet. +++++++++++++ Bright Wolf-Z +++++++++++++ This Machine Made By: Ryouga Body: Fire Wolf Cockpit: Bright Spear Booster: Triple-Z Stats: Body - B Grip - A Boost - C Weight: 1830 kg His Description : It rides pretty smooth and it's real fast, considering the weight. I found it best to side more towards max speed to utilize it's abilities. ++++++++++++++ Heat Glider-88 ++++++++++++++ This Machine Made By: Bryan Christian Body: Holy Spider Cockpit: Heat Snake Booster: Raiden-88 Stats: Body - C Grip - B Boost - B Weight: 1550 His Description: I found that this machine handles well on slippery roads. This is the machine I would prefer. ++++++++++++++++ Burning Lynx -G4 ++++++++++++++++ This Machine Made By: Koltynn Body: Fire Wolf Cockpit: Super Lynx Booster: Titan -G4 Stats: Body - B Grip - B Boost - B Weight: 1830 kg His Description : The only different part from your frost lynx is the body, but that makes all the difference. It has all the advantages of the Frost Lynx, and has better cornering. ++++++++++++++ Super Goose -Z ++++++++++++++ This Machine Made By: The Raven Body: Aqua Goose Cockpit: Super Lynx Booster: Triple -Z Stats: Body - C Grip - A Boost - B Weight: 1640 kg His Description : I find the Super Goose -Z a very reliable and fast car. ++++++++++++++ Shock Crest-G4 ++++++++++++++ This Machine Made By: Nova Body: Rapid Barrel Cockpit: Energy Crest Booster: Titan -G4 Stats: Body - C Grip - B Boost - B Weight: 1620 kg His Description : Pros - * Steering is very solid, when thrown into drift it handles exceptionally, and banking slides are also very easy to do. * Narrow profile gives a lot of room even on the slim tracks (Phantom road in particular) * Can "missile" it's way through a pack (just boost right through them). Cons - *Two boosts in quick succession (e.g. your's plus a speed booster) rip the traction right out from under it, don't expect to take corners safely at over 1300kph. At the apex of the personal boost it starts feeling twitchy, so that's a good guide for how much performance you can get from this craft. *Poor at spin attacks, and only reasonable at sideswipes, don't expect this craft to whack opponents out of the way all the time. Statistics: Rolling speed at optimum (unboosted) - 1100kph Speed + Boost at optimum - 1350-1400kph Highest speed attained - Around 1750kph +++++++++++++++ Super Swallow-Z +++++++++++++++ This Machine Made By: Adam R. Body: Funny Swallow Cockpit: Super Lynx Booster: Triple -Z Stats: Body - D Grip - B Boost - A Weight: 1610 kg His Description : As bad as it may sound, I found that the Super Swallow-Z fares rather well on a lot of the harder difficulty courses. Handles curves well, nice speed-the only thing thats a concern is probably its body. -+-+-+-+-+- The Following 3 Machines are made by PT PZ -+-+-+-+-+- +++++++++++++++ Super Barrel -Z +++++++++++++++ Body: Rapid Barrel Cockpit: Super Lynx Booster: Triple -Z Stats: Body - C Grip - B Boost - A Weight: 1700 kg His Description : My top racer.
