Car Parts List
I was hoping this forum could become a place where people list all the parts of a car that would make it much easier for a rebuild so people can look at the list, and buy all the parts at once, making a restoration much swifter.

its not about being fast here mate
its about the joy of rebuilding cars
if you want just a grind money then go and grind and you need no list of parts to do so
restoration is always a prolonged process :)

Yeah but with car restoration you can write down a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ list and buy all your parts via a list right next to you, whereas here you stuck switching through 2 different menu's per part.

Get gut :P

But seriously.

  1. Start restoration with empty inventory.
  2. Divide restoration in 3 stages: body, engine, suspension.
  3. Then you just disamble everything from that stage and repair what you can.
  4. Sort by name to have them in order as they are in store.
  5. Use tabs (brakes, gearbox, engine and other) to have less parts on the screen.
  6. Now remember multiple parts at once (those which aren't 100%).

I have bad memory, so it works as a great memory training too :)

there is a parts list in the radial button. All you have to do is if the part is on the car highlight it and bring up the radial button select list and add to list. If the part is not on the car go in to install part mode and select the ghost image of the part and do the same. Once in the shop click the list button on the right and a list will appear of the parts you added. I find this alot easier and quicker the writing out a list.

I generally use my phone to take a picture of the order and use that since the in-game shipping list doesn't have an option to add from inventory and stopping on every bad part and going to 2 different menus is just plain insane.

Ok, I done a translation of my table[docs.google.com] - just because I can ;)
Also done a PDF-version[drive.google.com] for print or reading from smartphone screen.

Enjoy! :)

Emptying everything, loading up, repairing and going from there was a great suggestion.

I honestly don't use lists for anything except body work, and that's only because they do it messed up and backwards. Easier to just use Assembly mode as your memory... (My memory is awful because life happened, this game is great therapy)

Once in Assembly mode, if you need a part just hit the T key. No backing out or anything, it takes you right to the ordering. Order what you need and escape out, install the part and move on.

Once you get the hang of things, order things by Axle. Eventually you order things by car. There's only so many parts to put on. Having a car's parts in stock means not stopping for anything.

The one place I really do get buggered is the story cars because you can prioritize or sort the list it gives you... Even then I just load up and go Assmebly Mode...
