![]() ![]() ![]() lift the car one level, yank the tires, pull all the brake hardware, replace bad stuff, throw it all together, send it out! Five minutes tops for a mediocre player. ![]() If it says "repair" but not "replace", AVOID unless you're over level 35.īrakes - Low XP maker, low money maker. If it says "spray", AVOID unless you're over level 30. BUT, read the following very carefully: if it's says "replace body panels", do it. I think the most expensive gearbox job I did made me $22k profit.īody- High XP and decent money. Go buy the new parts, slap them on and watch the profits roll in. All you need to do is remove the driveshaft (turn your camera so you're looking down the driveshaft.all 8 bolts should be seen in the monitor at that point), the starter, and the gearbox bits. Gearbox - Low XP maker, but this is the money maker. They're so boring, I tried to avoid them unless they were in conjunction with a suspension or gearbox repair. The chart is based on the "Correct" Way.Įxhaust - Easy job, fastest XP maker but horrible money. So, what jobs to take and what to fix on them? I've ranked the jobs from most XP profit per time involved to the least. You might waste three minutes finding it, but the money bonus is worth that one part! Don't leave that money on the table! You'll get a large completion bonus if you hunt down the one part that's not been found. One thing to keep in mind: finish every job to 100% completion. You'll save more money, but waste time at the repair bench which means a longer time to get to level 35! The Miserly Way: any part in the work order, repair to just over the minimum required in the work order. The "correct" way is easy: any part you find that's been identified in the work order, replace with new from the parts store. There's two methods to take when wrenching to level 35: the "Correct" Way (how most mechanics IRL do it) and the Miserly Way. I think I fixed about 200 before I got to level 35. That's where the game gets you: the reward in the game is restoring.how you get there is fixing - a lot - of vehicles. You'll start to notice that you're leveling up faster by fixing cars than by restoring cars. Get calls, fix them (completely), send them on their way. Even better if you hold off until level 35 so you can repair body panels (at a huge discount compared to buying new and painting them). So here's the best bit of advice I can give you: don't attempt to restore anything until level 30! You want that paint shop so your cars look mint. Even better would be to get to level 35 and be able to repair body panels instead of buying them! With that, I put my dreams of restoring a car to the side. I've played the game, "restored" a car at a low level, and then realized something: if I want to fully restore a car to 100% across the board (and make it look nice), I need to get to level 30 so I unlock the paint booth. You keep at it though and eventually gain a level or two until you get bored and eventually quit the game. Each resto takes a long time and the XP you get is meager, but the money is good. Most gamers get to level 10/11 and then start doing just that. You're chomping at the bit to get a barn find/auction car, restore it and send it on it's way out the door for profit. When you start wrenching, though, it seems like a grind. When you look at the skill tree, it looks relatively easy. This is a car mechanic sim, not just a restoration sim. However, once you buy the game, reality sinks in. I wanted to do that as well right out of the gate! For those of you new to CMS18, the big draw is being able to restore a car. ![]()
