CJ Stats 101 - S3X Appeal

Basics about the "Sex Appeal" stat that CJ has when you hold the respective "Show Stats" button.

Stats

Your "Stats" in GTA: San Andreas show you all your current character stats. Such as Respect, Stamina, Muscle, Fat, Weapon Skill, Lung Capacity and Sex Appeal. You can see your stats by holding, L2 (PS Controller), LT (Xbox Controller), or TAB [Keyboard]. You'll see this little window appear in the bottom LEFT corner of your screen.

How "S3x Appeal" Works for CJ

This stat basically effects your girlfriends. There's a couple that prefer to have CJ with a nice sexual attraction. Its an important stat if you're looking to get 1000% Completion for the game will all girlfriends. There are a few other ways to get CJ's S3x Appeal up.

Ways to Gain S3x Appeal

• Nice, Expensive Hair
  
• Nice, Tricked Out Car/Hotrod
  
• Nice, Expensive Clothes
  
• Multiple Relations with Prostitutes
  
• Going to Strip Clubs (Rare for a stat+)
  
• Collecting all 50 Oysters

How to Gain "S3x Appeal" with Hair Cuts

Now, raising its stat isnt just in your face like "Muscle" or "Fat". This one takes some thinking. For starters, you should get some pretty gangsta haircuts. No, not the cesar, or the afro. No, no no no. Thats not gangsa, homeboy. You want them hunky "ladies man" haircuts. The expensive ones, my homie. You can get these various haircuts around San Andreas such as Reece's Barber Shop, or other various Barbers around the state.

For starters, the "Flattop" is easy to start out with, or if you're feeling lucky, you can try the cornrows.

Or, if you're really experimental, you could try the Blonde Cornrows, or the Grove Cut for you short hair fanatics.

Unless you're a Las Venturas goer, then the Elvis Hair is for you. Why thank you very much.

How to Gain "S3x Appeal" with Clothes

You finding a pattern yet? No? Well, then it must be those rags you call clothes. You're not gonna get the girls like that, G. You need some new threads. Certain Stores offer higher value clothing compared to others. Use this to figure out which suits you!

Starting out, Binco. Binco is the first Clothing Store you access in the story. The best thing from Binco you can wear that's worth something, is the Grove Set, as I call it. You're tricked out in some greens. Beware however, this is the lowest value of Appeal your clothes will give you.
Specifically, you need "Green Rag Back", "Green Hoodie", "Green Jeans" "High-top Sneaks", and "African Pendant" to get the full value of Binco's basic clothing






Next, Sub-Urban/Suburban. This is the second, closest clothing store to Grove Street you can find. Be careful, though, cause this is Ballas Territory, so you might wanna bring a piece or two. You can find this Sub-Urban at Glen Park.
Rockstar Hoodie; The Highest Appeal Item in the Sub-Urban Inventory









Base-5 Hoodie; Second Highest Appeal Item in the Sub-Urban Inventory








Bobo Ape T, Green Shorts, Strap Sneakers. A nice-looking High Appeal set from Sub-Urban








Alright, now you have ProLaps. A more exercise junkie clothing store. You'll mostly find track sets and other more exercising-like clothing items here. You can find this store in Los Santos in "Rodeo"
Track Top, Track Pants, Mid-Top Sneaker. This is the Highest Appeal outfit you can get from this store








Wanna look like you exercise but dont wanna look like a chocolate raspberry, wear the "Black T", "Black Track Pants" and "Mid-Top Sneaker"







Okay, so you're still looking. Wanna show off your wealth while you're strutting your looks? Then you're now at the expensive stores. ZIP, Victim and Didier Sachs.

The Gray Suit combo from Victim. Its the most expensive set in the entire Victim Inventory, as well as the highest Appeal set in the inventory of this store.






The Black Suit combo from Victim, while its a cheaper alternative to the Gray set, it still has a high appeal stat change. Not as drastic, but just in the right bid for the player that wants to save money. You can find a Victim in Los Santos just up the road in Rodeo from ProLaps




These stores still not enough? You want to flaunt your whole wallet with what you wear? Then make sure you bring the bank, cause D-Sachs is the highest end store in the entire game. You'll find really high-end clothes with really high Appeal stats. You can ONLY find a D-Sachs next to the Victim in Rodeo, Los Santos. Note that you can ONLY unlock Didier Sachs by completing "Saint Mark's Bistro" during the Las Venturas chapter of the game.
A Full Tuxedo Set. The Most Expensive, and highest Appeal Stat outfit in the entire game. Be ready to look like an old mobster, cause you're in for a surprise.

How to Gain "S3x Appeal" with Vehicles [LowRiders]

Lets cut to the chase. Cars, the one thing GTA is all about. Aside from your nice hair, and good looks, you need a way to get around. Not all vehicles are created equal, and by equal, I mean that they wont make the girl you're dating drop her pants then and there. You need a hotrod to do that. Though, its recommended that you can drive good in this state. A wrecked car wont mean jack to your girl.

Wanna start out quick and easy? Use a lowrider. These are pretty common in SE Los Santos. (Grove Street Family County, Varrio Los Aztecas county)


Blade
With Paintjob 3. This is one of the 4 High-Appeal Lowriders. This is one of 3 that you can customze highly to your liking.







Remington
Usually you can find this lowrider where the Lowrider Meet happens at Unity Station. It spawns in a corner, other than that you can usually find one driving around. This is the Second High-Appeal Lowrider, and the second you can highly customize.





Slamvan
Is it a truck or lowrider? Well, its a lowrider, and a VERY rare one at that. They barely spawn in Los Santos, and can be found easier in Las Venturas on The Strip. This is the third high-appeal LowRider and the last one you can fully customize.





Tahoma
The 4th, and final High-Appeal lowrider. Its honestly the cheapest to mod as well. Its not worth modding, unless you can drive good and have room in a safehouse garage.

How to Gain "S3x Appeal" with Vehicles [4-Door Luxury]

Luxury Cars. Some of the best looking 4-door cars around. Sure, Sports Cars are nice, but some girls like room. They dont wanna be crammed into a tight space when you're taking them to see the city. What are they? An animal in a cage? Nah. You're better than that. Give your girls some breathing room with these amazing cars. Remember to take care of your car when you're out driving.

Admiral
The Admiral is one of the more plain Luxury Cars, but god dayum, does it look good in black. A blackest luxury car. You can find these in any of the 3 cities. One of the High-Appeal 4-Door Luxury Cars





Merit
This car is more identifiable after "555 We Tip". Has a long, flat body, and has some pretty cool modifications. Some may even be enough to get your girl ready the moment she gets out the door. Another High-Appeal 4-Door Luxury





Premier
This is another one of the better looking luxury cars. Low sitting and has a good roaring engine. You can tell you have the right car if it looks like a police car or taxi. Get it the right color, and put the right parts on it, you're in for a fun date with your girl. The Third of the High-Appeal Luxury Cars





Sentinel
While its a bigger build than the rest of the cars on this list, its still pretty good lookin. Good ridin too. You mod this puppy up enough you'll have a good time in the driver seat, if you know what I mean.






Stretch
What girl wouldnt like being taken out on a night in the town in a god dayum LIMO? I know I would if I was a woman. The Stretch is pretty easy to find, compared to how it handles.






Washington
Honestly one of the best cars to be pink. This old-school sedan-like luxury car would be a have to if you run into one and just so happen to have the money to appropriate it for your woman at home.

The Oysters

This is an Oyster, one of the many collectable items in San Andreas. Collecting all 50 will allow you to date most, if not all of the girlfriends without meeting all their requirements. Such as Michelle dating you without you needing to loose muscle. Its an easy way to get all the girlfriends pretty quick. Though, dont bite off more than you can chew, handling too many girls at once can cause a lot of problems for you and for them. Tackle them one at a time. Go slow. Not like they're going anywhere.

Some are harder to find than others, though I recommend that you do your best to max out your Lung Capacity, as you'll find most, if not all the oysters underwater somewhere. Make sure to keep your eyes open when you're going for a swim.

If you'd like to see where they all are, because you're the lazy f*ck you are, you can check here to find all 50 oysters: All Oyster Locations[www.gamesradar.com]

[YouGetOneChance Stun Em]

cool, thanks. no issues dating katie and michelle yet... my muscle is at 100% and my fat is at 60 to 35%...i did fail 1 date with katie but i assume its because she wanted to go driving or dancing and i didnt notice. :D im dating them both, playa playa, however.. i dont see a reason to date helena anymore now that i got the bandito car, i dont need the overall outfit, i assume. (i gotta say, the items you can find and the dating makes the game kinda long, lol...i just went for a swim with Ryder)... but nah, its already off, maybe i should turn it on..oh cool, that workers, but it does slow the game down, maybe if i keep playing with it i can dive while it''s off, thanks!

[Night Side Productions]

- Actually I may have learned what the problem is with your swimming.


It's the Frame Limiter.

If you have it on, things will start misbehaving, such as slow/broken swimming, EMS Vehicle Siren activation stubbornness and possibly other things.

Whenever your swimming, go turn your frame limiter off.

[YouGetOneChance Stun Em]

ah, yeah... i thought so, seemed weird how he would dive for only half a second...thats why i asked, forgot about the perm oyster boost, so that makes me a noob, thanks. i guess i cant date the chick at the driving school who likes fatty men now since i just found out i could use the treadmill and run off 75% of my weight in 1(game) day...(which sounds insane, if only InRealLife was like that... i'd lose 30 kilo(gram)s in a day and be at my perfect weight). ...i got thin in game because i wanted to date Katie to 100% first. So now i got 3 problems and..2 of them are girls.:p ciao

[Night Side Productions]

Out of the Trilogy, San Andreas DOES have diving, but it can be buggy on Keyboard controls. I use controllers, so it works for me just fine.

I explain how Oysters work in the guide, but to go into detail

All 50 Oysters give you MAX Sex Appeal permanently, regardless of outfit, car, tattoo or haircut, which can help you date some of the more, so say, "Difficult" girlfriends without wanting to go back and forth between gyms and fast food joints.

Kate and Denise, easy pickings, no pre-req stat needed

Barbara, Michelle, etc - Need certain Fat/Muscle/Driving Skill stats to get with them, and you need to maintain such stat or dates will immediately fail

[YouGetOneChance Stun Em]

Question; i still havent unlocked the last store for the gangsta outfit...but i digress... How do the Oysters work? i mean i can't even really see them unless im in the water, and swimming feels weird in the game... on MKB ...all i can do is left click to dive for half a second, is there no way to swim underwater? the tutorial said you need to use space to swim around underwater but when i try it ....the controls do nothing, lol im asking how to swim under water...like diving, if such a thing exists in this game

[Night Side Productions]

Editor's Note - the "Tahoma" isn't classified as a lowrider in the game, which is strange, as they have a chance to spawn with the Hydraulics modification.

[Zmajko]

awesome!

[Night Side Productions]

- I'm actually glad to see people interested in this guide. I may work on adding a Strip Club section where I list the locations of strip-clubs around the State of San Andreas, but again, that's a rare Sex-Appeal+ gain on it's own.

Give me your thoughts.

[YouGetOneChance Stun Em]

This game needs a really good remaster, where they show you in numbers which clothing pieces have the highest appeal, and the oysters are easier to find, because so far i only found one on my own. They should make this game like they made WatchDogs2 ... it's a gem, but very unpolished in it's original state, thanks for the guide!
