In GTA SA there is a motorcycle called the NRG 500, and I'm thinking "NRG" sounds like "Energy". I know, pretty useless info, but makes sense because that is the fastest bike.

Bogus Report:

If you go near the restricted area in the desert you will notice that there is a store near that navel base on the road that leads there. It has a little ufo thingy floating on a pole there and if you go into the store you will find that there is a guy playing pool there! You can play pool but lets go to the back of the store first! Ok so there is a map of sanandreas there! Look at the map or take a picture of it and then target a place on the map that has a picture of a ufo on it and target it on the map. Then next go to the spot that you targeted on the map and look at the moon at night and you might see a little circle go accross the moon. It will move kinda slowly. It will move all the way across in about 2 secounds! I have seen 1 twice on my game! It's is real serisly! Ok so try it!

Customize any car part 3

Bogus Report:

Lets say you like the Banshee but you don’t like the tires at transfenders. How about some low rider or wheel arch angels tires. Pick the Banshee from the list. While in the game find a low rider or street racer example: sultan customize the tires, the shadow and cutter tires are the best. Take it to the grove you know what to. Now you have a Banshee With better tires, take it to transfenders you know what to do. If picked a vehicle like a fire truck you have customized the street racer or low rider using part 1 rules. I learned these hot secrets by messing around with action replay. Can anybody top this?

Make any car have low rider hydraulics example pick the Club from the car list. Find a Low rider in the game there’s a savanna near the low rider mod garage take it customize the tires, the cutter tires are the best.Take it to grove st. Now you have a club with low riders tires take the club it to transfenders customize it you can add hydraulics here.It will be low riders hydraulics because of the low riders tires. If you picked a car like The hot ring racer, customize the low rider using part 1 rules. Note: low rider hydraulics affects some cars in bad ways. Note: don't use any kind of hydraulics for the monter truck, the hydraulics will crush the truck in the garage.

Customize any car part 1

Bogus Report:

Have you ever wanted to modify cars like the Hot ring racer, BF injection, sandking, police cars, fire trucks etc. Vehicles that the game says: you can’t mod this vehicle. Oh yeah, that’s right I have found a way. First you need Action replay max I think Max Evo edition is an up date I’m not sure. Anyway, if you have action replay you know about the cars list and what ever vehicle you pick from the list when you load the game And park a car in the grove st. Safe house garage and let the gate close and when it opens back up the car will be the one you picked from the list. This works for the original san andreas and the 2nd edition. There are different master and car list codes for the 1st and 2nd edition of san andreas. Before you use action replay if you are not sure load your game And make sure the grove st. Garage is empty, this is very important. If there’s a customized car in the garage the game will freeze when you go to the garage. Now pick a car from the car list example: Hot ring racer (Nascar) the one that has the #21 Is the best one to use, if you have the invincible or bullet and damage proof car codes use them. Now load your game, while in the game find a car that can be customized from any Of the 3 mod garages example: the Bullet take it to transfenders change color 1to black Color 2 green change the tires add nitro x10.hydraulics if you want. Note: this is very Important what ever car you use only change the colors, tires add nitro and hydraulics.If you add extra items like vents, hoods, exhaust, spoilers. The game will freeze when you park it in the grove st. Garage. Take the customize bullet to the grove st. Garage park it in there, When the gate open back up you will have a customize green and black hot ring racer. Sometimes the gate will take a few seconds to open. If the game freezes you did not follow my rules to the letter. You can’t customize planes or bikes. Nobody can top this secret!

Bogus Report:

Same codes as part 1, now get a team recruit 3 girl pedestrians no bum chicks make sure you have a 4 door car,if you have action replay turn on damage and bullet proof cars cheat if not goog luck, same rules as part one turn off the codes and if they dis you rules. Now turn on pedestrians roit wait a few seconds now turn it off. Now your team will attack everybody that's right no one is safe. This is a dangerous combo so do not leave these codes on if you do the chances of you and your team being wasted are high. Note: when you use the riot code do not save your game even if you turn off the code.The riot code effects meeting and dating girl friends, missions, mission movies example:during a movie cut scene the character will run off the screene and then the game will freeze. This combo is for driving around. Or recruit 1 girl with an M16 get a NRG 500 bike use the combo above and just ride. Grove st. 4 life.

You don't need a wanted level they will attack every cop they see.note:you have to recruit the hooker first. Same rules as part 1 about turning off the codes,missions and getting dis.

First turn on these codes pedestrians have weapons,and Recriut pedestrians as gang members ( I've post them under user submitted cheats)now recruit a grove st. Member get a 4 door car now look for two pedestrians,its looks better with girl pedestrians no bum chicks, recruit them like a grove member. Recruit one with a M16 and one with shot gun or whatever you like. Once you a team turn off the codes. Now they will do drive bys against all gangs. Remember you have to recruit the grove st. Member first , they won't do drive bys if you don't do this. If you have a wanted level they will do drive bys at the cops. Note:if a recruited pedestrian dis you don't dis them back because they will attack you and won't be apart of your team anymore. You can do this on gang missions or just driving around. If you are going to this on missions have a team before you start the mission and make them wait (press down)before you enter the red marker or they will disappear after the mission movie. They won't follow you on some missions. After a while the grove st. Member will run off and leave you this always happen. If you say in a car for to long your team will stay in the car and not follow you on foot,if this happens re recruit them or get a new team

Bogus Report:

Okay, what I did was go on the highest building in Los Santos. (You'll probably need a helicopter). Go on there, and jump to the corner, then jump again. You should fall into the building, but you can't pull the parachute. You just keep falling, then you fall on the ground. You don't die, but you can't move. Another one is in the water. You fly a plane near the ocean, then jump out, and try and land near the plane. Pull the parachute before you land in the water. Then you fall into the water, with the parachute still not pulled. It's pretty awesome. I do a lot out of being funny.

Bogus Report:

Okay, get the AT-400 in the Los Venturas Airport. (It's the biggest hanger). Go up the stairs, and hop on in the plane. Back up with it, then turn left, and go on the airstrip. Then go forward, and floor it! Then pull up of course, and high up in the air, just about until you can't go up anymore. You'll have a parachute. (You'll need for the following). Go towards Los Santos, right around the train depot. Stay above it, then start pointing down towards it, and then jump of the plane. Watch it crash, then try and land near it, on it, or not so far from it. Look at all the people that died. Mwahahahaha. I do this all the time! I enjoy the suffering of the Pedestrians. Try it, it's sooo much fun. If your ever mad, you can take it out on the Pedestrians of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Just think about all the fun you'll have.

No cheats, just skill

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

Okay, now a lot of you might think that this game is impossible to beat without cheats. Well, it's not. I beat it without cheats, took a year, but I did it. What you need is to kill a lot of pedestrians, get their money, and buy a gun. Then do the missions, then through out time, you'll have enough money to buy another gun. Keep enough for health, which means food, and drinks. Pretty much, making small amounts of money, and getting guns, and armor for missions. What you do is when your attacking someone, or you have a lot of people attacking you, use cover. Then wait for them to reload, or run towards you. Then get up, and shoot them, then run around. Try and dodge the shots, go through where ever the missions ends, finish it, and there you go. If you need to, try and find a food place, or somewhere close to the mission. If anyone has anymore questions, suggestions, or just flat out critics, just message me in the GTASA Forums, or here, or in PM.

SubRewards

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

If any of you didnt notice, wonder why the slamvans are around more often? Did your race horse win the races alot recently? Thats because of subrewards.

SubRewards are vehicles, weapons, stats, or even luck, that can be increased or unlocked while collecting oysters, spraying tags, etc.

These are some of the SubRewards listed below:

50/100 tags sprayed: Slamvans unlocked.
??/50 horseshoes collected: Gambling luck increases.
??/50 oysters collected: Sex Appeal + Lung capacity is increased.
100/100 photo ops taken: grade 2 weapons spawn outside CJ's Garage in Doherty
100/100 tags sprayed: grade 3 weapons spawn in the Johnson's Kitchen (Ganton)

And finally.. Some people say that USJ's are not rewarded or contribute to 100%, they may not get percent, but they do get rewards. When all USJ's are completed, Loco Low.Co has new modifications availible , such as paintjobs. (and especially for the slamvan, wheelcovers are unlocked.)

Race Tournaments - made easy

Bogus Report:

You may have thought that this might not work because all normal cars on the roads, apart from some exceptions, do not fly off when you have entered the cars fly cheat, but since the racers are going at full speed they will eventually after about five seconds, fly off. Drive at a steady pace around the course for about half the race, then deactivate the cheat and finish the race.

This has been tested on ALL courses and it's guaranteed to work.

NOTE: in motorbike races the cheat will not work as the bikes cannot fly.
BUT! It has been proven that while on a bike, entering the jetpack cheat, will make the bike faster!
