A "Proper" Game Using Nissans As Much As Possible

I finished the GT1 proper game (maybe here) but wanted to continue playing GT1.

So I decided once again to complete simulation mode doing all the races in proper license order without entering any race twice, but this time I decided to Nissans as much as possible. In particular, I decided to use the 1988 Nissan S13Silvia 1800c K's as much as possible.

The log of that game is here (maybe here).

Note that Nissan does not have any offerings allowed to enter the LightWeight Cup.

But previous tests had indicated to me that, with a little preparation, I could win the Normal series with the 1989 Nissan Skyline GT-R. With just light modifications, too, (soft slicks and turbo-spec 2) the same car can win the tough 4WD series. Actually, it can win with somewhat cheaper modifications (especially tires), but using soft slicks makes them available to you later in the game, without having to waste the cost of cheaper tires.
