Cheats & Guides

Need for Speed: Underground Cheats For PlayStation 2

  1. Use rims that normally will not fit

    Certain cars can only fit so big of a rim. For example, the Miata can only fit 17s, but if you get a car like the Skyline put 20s on it and trade it in for the Miata. The Miata will now have the 20s that the Skyline had in it. Do not try to install any other rims on your new car because the rims will go back to the maximum sized allowed.

  2. Getting three Unique Spoiler at same time -- Katana and Dual GT

    You must have a non-hatchback car available for this cool glitch. First get a non-hatchback car, go to race 77( Time Trial, Samantha's Big Tease ), beat the race to get to reward screen. DO NOT choose Dual GT and Duotek, as they have both saloon and hatchback version and thus won't get you additional spoiler. Instead choose Katana( always ), save the game and exit Underground mode. At Main Menu go check ''customize your ride'' section, choose a hatchback and see Dual GT WILL BE AVAILABLE! Now choose a saloon car you will see not only Katana is available, but saloon version of Dual GT WILL BE AVAILABLE, TOO!

    This will happen almost everytime, but if you have extra cash and want to make sure it happens 100%, choose Katana at Underground mode, go to customize car section in Underground mode, trade-in for a hatchback, and trade back the saloon car again, you will see this happening!!

    As result, you will see only two kinds of unique spoilers in Underground mode( Katana for saloon and Dual GT for hatchbacks ), but at Main Menu you can find THREE kinds of unique spoiler available( Katana & Dual GT for saloon and Dual GT for hatchbacks ).

    Note: due to the glitch, non-hatchback version of Dual GT will stay with your ride's color.

  3. Slo-Mo Glitch

    Whenever you hit traffic or make a jump, you go into slow motion. Hit START while in slow motion view, then resume the game. The camera will shift back to the normal view while still in slow motion.

  4. Eddies Skyline

    To unlock "Eddies Skyline" you must have 3 million style points. You can not upgrade this car and it has the same stats as a regular skyline. It is the car on the cover and that comes up when you haven't selected a profile.

  5. Magazine #28

    This magazine was originally taken out of the game, but if you want to look at the description, here is how you get it. You must already have several magazines. Just enter Magazines, go to the right column, and scroll down fast to the empty space and now you can see the description of Magazine #28.

  1. Larger Rim/Tire Size

    This is for having 18"s or larger on cars that normally cannot have them (i.e. The Miata can only have up to 17"). Money, Level 2 and/or 3 Rims, you also need to be far enough in the game to have a Trade In car that has big wheels is required for this Glitch.

    1. First find a car that can have larger rims than your current car (Miata 17" - RSX 19" )

    2. Select Underground mode, go to Customize Ride> Trade In> Now trade your car (Miata) in for the car you found earlier (RSX).

    3. Go back to Cutomize Ride>Visual>Rims and reinstall the rims you currently have (or upgrade to bigger and better things).

    4. Now go back and trade in this car for your old car.

    5. Enjoy your spiffy big rims that your car shouldn't have!

Need for Speed: Underground Cheats For GameCube

  1. Have both the Katana and Dual GT Spoiler

    Play through the game normally, and once you beat Samantha's Big Tease (#77), pick the Katana Unique Spoiler. Now, to get the Dual GT, trade in your car for a Peugot 206. Then, trade your car back to what you had and now your car has Dual GT as the spoiler. To switch back for the Katana Spoiler, just go to spoilers and scroll all the way to the end, and there's the Katana spoiler! Once you do this, you now will have both Katana and Dual GT in the customize ride from the main menu.

The Miata will now have the 20s that the Skyline had in it. Do not try to install any other rims on your new car because the rims will go back to the maximum sized allowed.

Need for Speed: Underground Cheats For PC

  1. Unlimited Money Without Racing

    First you must obtain the ''Nissan Skyline'' then you have to atleast unlocked 3/4 of all the performance upgrades(Note: Having all of them will allow you to make more money)Get rid of the performance parts that upgrade the Skyline's top speed and change the turbo package back to stock. The performance stats should read ''S, S, 3, S, S, 3, 3, 3, S''. (Or it might be different if you haven't obtained all performance parts) Then trade it in for the Mazda Miata getting a rebate of $12727 afterwards re-equip everything onto the Miata then trade it in again, this time for the Nissan Skyline getting a rebate of 119 dollars. Then just repeat the whole process again and again each time getting $12846 each time so you can buy all the Visual Parts and Performance Parts quickly.

  2. Slower Enemies

    Note: This is recommended only for progress level 95 or higher (Underground Mode only). Enemies here are much faster than you, even if you're driving an optimized car. Even playing on easy mode doesn't make much difference. So change the turbo and nitro parts to stock. For some reason, your opponents will be much slower than you.
