[warped sigil]

lol. I got myself banned from GTPlanet after perceived favoritism and abuse by the mods and...never really went back.

[thick lion]

Oh forum mods... The wild wild west

[desert spindle]

got gold time on Deep Forest time trial

[vagrant coral]

yea people hate on gt for sum reason i dont get it

its a really good and has a high level of quality consistently for 25 years

cant say that about other franchises

like we can say theres never been a miss

gt6 and 7 are the lowest low and even then gt7 is probably the best racing simcade on the market rn

and has sold the most

15million in 3 years

[thick lion]

I love when people call GT a "simcade" v funny guy

[vagrant coral]

i mean for me its just an arcade game lol but simcade is its technical

its like realistic physics in an arcade progression its weird

[thick lion]

Oh i see

I thought you were one of those iRacing "people" who has never played an actual simcade like Blur or Grid

[vagrant coral]

no lol

blur is my shit lol

need to play it again tho its been forever

and i mean gt7's competitors are grid legends and forza motorsport 8

[thick lion]

Me too... I wonder if the PS3 servers are stillm online for me to get my ass handed to me

[vagrant coral]

i doubt it just play it on pc

and mod it so you get on the online

there'll be a discord or smth

[thick lion]

bruh PCs are allergic to me. When I finsih my uni course I am going straight back to the chromebook life

I hate PC gaming so so soooo much

[vagrant coral]

same but its good for mods and free games

[thick lion]

I have NO patience

[vagrant coral]

abandonware and stuff

[vagrant coral]

i once waited a day and a half for a call of duty download xd

[thick lion]

But old PS2 and XBOX games are already so cheap lmao

[vagrant coral]

but yea console is wayyy better

[vagrant coral]

yea but u cant mod them thats the only reason i do it

i have a legit save on ps2 and then modded on pc

and i dont have an xbox so only way i can play exclusives is pc

[thick lion]

I got an OG box off a guy i worked with for £25 last summer. some of those games feel like HD remasters of the PS2 versions.

[vagrant coral]

nice

[thick lion]

Anyways GT PSP most underrated GT game.

[vagrant coral]

nah

its fun for a portable game for like 30 mins at a time

[vagrant coral]

GT5 most underrated

or GTS

[thick lion]

That's the beauty of it, I think

[vagrant coral]

people hate on GT5 idk why

its fire

same for GTS

[thick lion]

5 is very messy

[vagrant coral]

5s great

progression and career is fire

do wish it was longer and had more events but its good for what it is

sorta like a GT3 reskin career wise

[thick lion]

Oh i love 5, but its messy... I think 4 was better for progression and vibes. Doing a map not a menu gave me a feeling of hanging out in different places. 5 has that too but it was stronger for me in 4

I still need to get the platinum for 5...

[vagrant coral]

same

5 is my goat personally

4 is great but the vibe of 5 is insane

[thick lion]

But the PSP game... Its madness. Its just stuffed with so much random stuff. Having full tuning was neat, i loved the little essays about the cars that 4 missed out, and the multiplayer is hilarious

[vagrant coral]

and who can hate the new graphics and tracks

is the multiplayer on psp still up

cuz i can give it a go lol i have it on my psp2000

[thick lion]

It was local based multi so if youre with another player itll be alive forever

There were never servers

[vagrant coral]

ah nah i aint got any mates with a psp

[thick lion]

Yeah it was only a few people I tried it with.., and then a few sketchy nights on the PS3 server hosting thing with folks off GTPlanet

And a few car trips with my sister when we all lived with our parents

[ebon eagle]

Question: im making a personalized race in Catalunya and im wondering, whats the normal rate of tire wear and fuel consumption in like a everyday race, either professional or simply track day, im trying to make it as accurate/realistic in the race, and i dont know how much is the normal rate of tire wear and fuel efficiency

[hollow hinge]

Might be 1x each but Idk for sure

[vagrant coral]

1x is real

[warped sigil]

Personally, I think GT5 is the worst of the bunch. 6 is was a slight improvement, with a copy and pasted car list from 5, and most of 7's problems are Live Service related, and the lack of a meaningful career, but...gameplay wise, it's not bad.

[vagrant coral]

how is GT5 the worst lol, its got the og style career with a great car list even if you say it has low poly models you still have the great high rez ones

[thick lion]

I think 6 is the weakest mainline GT game. It runs less perfectly than 5, the career is probably the weakest one GT ever had and the longest races are like half an hour. I'd give it a 7/10

[vagrant coral]

agree 100%

its fun but not fun or long enough

imagine coming from GT3 with 10 laps in a vitz to GT6

[thick lion]

You can see them in 6 pivoting towards serious online racing. I remember the daily races with the spec cars being so much fun on 6

It's real. Kaz just tweeted the silhouette.

My phone is supposed to buzz me when he tweets anything but I guess X is dying

Suzuki Carry one make racing is going to be SPECTACULAR

[hollow hinge]

the cr-v we actually wanted in gt7:

[thick lion]

I want no CRV in GT7

[ebon eagle]

it was, a corvette, a suzuki minitruck, a mazda (i think), a ferrari and a honda SUV

i wont specify, but id say its a decent bunch

[vagrant coral]

hey nisseeeen zzzz pls start posting my videos when an update comes out instead of hsg pls

i want the nobeds views

[desert spindle]

The people on Reddit are once again braindead

[thick lion]

IDK if anyones interested but another server is running a Ford GT LM one make series starting tomorrow night

At least I don't have to buy this fucking thing I guess

i wonder who made that

[cloud wraith]

What's wrong with kei trucks?

[hollow hinge]

He's talking about the CR-V

We wanted this one

If any

[desert spindle]

Well bad for him because I don‘t give a fuck.

Car is car.

[thick lion]

Who CARES about the CRV theyre adding a kei truck

The kei truck will be used for some of the funniest one make racing you will ever see

All hail the kei truck

[weary plover]

it's happening...

the homelander-mobile is getting

[desert spindle]

Update out?

[thick lion]

Yep

[desert spindle]

gonna install when I‘m home

out of all days I miss the shortcut home it‘s today because the first bus came way too late

guess I‘ll get myself some snacks then

[thick lion]

Can't wait to get back and get a Suzuki carry

[thick lion]

Wtf is the corvette C5 doing in the new car dealership???

[hollow hinge]

Any model made in 2000 or later can be bought in Brand Central

So they added a 2001 model for that reason

[thick lion]

Oh yeah

Such a random concept though... Lemme walk into Chevy and buy a factory fresh 24 year old car

[hollow hinge]

Yeah lmao

[thick lion]

I love her

Im speechless

[real sierra]

Kei truck

This is the reason why I love gran turismo

[desert spindle]

Isn‘t it from 2001 to present?

[warped sigil]

The Ramen truck is best truck

Also...Hellcat Tundra

Oh, even better, it's the Demon engine.

[hollow hinge]

Oh yeah it is 2001

I misremembered the Diablo being in Brand Central

[desert spindle]

I might buy the GT-R LM Nismo.

Interested to see how a LMP1 car with front-wheel drive handles.

[thick lion]

It's my fave LMP1 to race competitively, because everything about it is completely insane

[desert spindle]

Too bad it didn‘t get enough time for development. Imagine it managed to get some successes.

[thick lion]

I think it coud have been right up there. Nissan had just proven they could make extraordinary bizarre vehicles competitive. The ZEOD, a le mans Garage 56 vehicle, wasn't allowed to run at full capacity at le mans to avoid embarrassing the slower LMP1 cars.

[bright wadi]

The CRV and the Carry are the only worthy in this update, everyone and everything else has had the C5 Z06 and 812 for years so those latter two are old news

[hollow hinge]

Vine boom sound effect

[thick lion]

They added other cars in the Suzuki Carry update? News to me

[hollow hinge]

Welp

The 812 is now on the small list of road cars that can compete in the 800PP events without an engine swap

[hollow hinge]

This same list includes the Ferrari F40 and Porsche 918 Spyder

So yeah that's three road cars that can compete at Sardegna and Spa without an engine swap

@thick lion this sounds like something you'd enjoy

[hollow hinge]

Available in red, blue, black or purple

I try to live this in real life I'll join.

[thick lion]

Fascinating little tweet

[vagrant coral]

I wonder what this entails

Clip from a Racer last night

[thick lion]

I could mean literally nothing. But it could mean Xiaomi cars in a game some time. Or it could be about trying to get Gran Turismo available for a Chinese audience.

[thick lion]

Gotta work on my Kangoo championship for the Racing Rivals Server that looks awesome!!!

[vagrant coral]

new build

[hollow hinge]

Damn we both decided to build an Evo 9 this week

[vagrant coral]

i started an underground street racing league so i needed a 650pp street car

and ik the evo handles and powers out of corners perfectly

[thick lion]

It's a good pp for street racing!

[hollow hinge]

Mine's built for 800PP

Competes with the Group 3 cars on fuel efficiency and tire life

I hit 236mph on Tokyo with that thing

[vagrant coral]

nice

i got 205 in mine at 650pp

The Taycan and IONIQ have been great series, the Skoda VGT was a moment of madness and also terrible to drive

[desert spindle]

Taycan is free anyway

I‘m just pissed we only have one type of rims for each car from it‘s own brand

I fucking hate the carbon ones we have in the game

I want the blade looking ones

fits with the looks of the car

[thick lion]

I like the mission e wheels. And they changed colour with the body, that's fun

But having a few options would be nice

The Clio 220 gets two options

[vagrant coral]

Yea I think we need all the wheels for each car

[thick lion]

Some of the world most annoying GT7 players might be getting their wishes after all...

Or he could just be a guest of Toyota or there as a fan and driver on his own terms

[warped sigil]

The CRV e:HEV is the most useless car. Normally, PD gives us something to use the new vehicles on the following Friday, but...both of my CRVs are unused. There's been nothing that's let me use it at any point since the launch.

[desert spindle]

Sunday Cup

[hollow hinge]

Idk but to not scan any of the new hypercars on this outing would be a waste

I'm hoping for the Porsche 963 and Ferrari 499P

The most successful non Toyota Hypercars

[thick lion]

You do know that scanning cars is not a job you can do during a race weekend.

[hollow hinge]

What I mean is

Score a deal to come in to the headquarters after the season is over and get access to that sweet sweet 963

Yes I know it's not that easy to scan them in a race weekend

I just didn't have the words to properly articulate it

[thick lion]

Lol

I was worried for five seconds

It would be nice, but the FIA might have a tie up with whoever developed Le mans Ultimate because car IP is a nightmare

[hollow hinge]

I mentioned the 963 just because it's my favorite of the hypercars

But also because it's likely to have the most livery potential

[thick lion]

It looks so cool! But you can just paint the 917LL and pretend

[hollow hinge]

Not just by including all the real WEC/IMSA liveries like Hertz Team Jota and JDC Miller

But the tribute liveries as well

Like Gulf, Rothmans and Martini

[vagrant coral]

I beg just so they stop fucking filling up the comments

Just honestly ik that we will get a fresh new roster of gr b,4,3,2 and 1 when GT8 and these idiots think that scanning 35+ race cars that are raced EVERY WEEKEND is an easy job especially when it takes roughly 9 months for a new car from scratch

[desert spindle]

I want Yellowbird

I still need to install my PS3

[thick lion]

The Yellowbird would be a seriously cool get

I've always thought of GT as a road cars ftst kinda game.

A good selection of race cars is fab, but it really doesn't need to be exhaustive

[vagrant coral]

Exactly

[thick lion]

Update next week

[tidal oar]

where's the goddamn MR2 Spyder Kaz! I don't want a crossover Peugeot 😭

[thick lion]

Two new cars this late in a game is still nice

But that Delta rally car had BETTER be GR.b

And apparently a second classic Citroen? Ooh la la

[weary plover]

it's either that or someone thought it was a polonez
hood looks too curvy for that though

either way it's another 4-cyl shitbox i keep craving as a side-dish to compliment the 2001 z06 from last month (even though that's v8 but still)

though i was especially craving some y2k-era (late 90s-early 2000s) ones... so it's like a side-dish to a side-dish

[desert spindle]

Wonder if they‘re trying to mix GT4 and GT6 for GT8

[thick lion]

I thought that was the vibe of 7

[desert spindle]

No it isn‘t.

[weary plover]

^

it feels more a soft reboot of 3

[warped sigil]

3 Stallantis cars next week. Interesting.

[warped sigil]

But I want the Lancia HF Integrale.

[desert spindle]

I want Opel to return.

[thick lion]

Well it has the map and different vibey areas of 4 and the lack of long endurance runs from 6. Don't really know what 7 shares with 3... Certainly not the reliance on long long championships, rally events and one make series.

[hollow hinge]

it'd probably be the opel mokka or some shit given the types of blobs polyphony adds now

[thick lion]

Nobody whines about the pickup trucks

There's 5 dreadful blob SUVs in the game, one of those is a Lamborghini, and another is a Nurburgring 24h veteran WITH the race car body kit available.
GT4 had it's share of weird SUVs, don't forget that. A range rover and Audi Q7 concept car. Whatever the Pontiac Vibe is, and probably a few others I'm forgetting

[warped sigil]

MY thing is...I play video games for escapism and I for 1 welcome silly cars like trucks, vans, and SUVS. I do agree we need places to use the EVs and VGT cars, but...I still like wacky cars in video games. Honestly, the unique cars can draw me more to a game the any Lamborghini or Alfa Romeo.

[thick lion]

I use EVs and VGTs every week in the random daily challenges 👍 GT does a great job of letting you use anything

This plate decal mapping pissing me of is there a fix for it?

[hollow hinge]

I think Projection Range

Try that

[thick lion]

You could use a very weird camera angle, and stickers aligned with camera, to get behind the plate from the sides, and put that layer above the plate sticker, without touching the plate

[warped sigil]

So, we got 3 cars with Rally DNA this month. The Delta HF Intergrale, the Citroen BX was to be Ctroen's Group B car, and the Peugeot 2008 participated in Dakar.

[thick lion]

They updated the GTR group 1 car so it FINALLY recharges it's hybrid system when you brake

[weary plover]

i wonder where i've seen that wang before

[thick lion]

I still won't buy it

[hollow hinge]

Bro Willow Spr*ngs has more events than the Nurburgring now

Genuinely who the fuck asked for so many events at W*llow Springs

[thick lion]

Willow Springs is three circuits. The Nurburgring is two circuits

[hollow hinge]

That's genuinely the worst copium comment I've ever read

Not counting Asphalt Man of course

The worst part about the launch is that Willow Springs got 2 (3?) events on launch but Le Mans and Monza didn't

[thick lion]

? I want to do more at the Nurburgring, but they keep adding low speed events and the nordscheife would be a nightmare in like a 400pp Citroen.

There's still zero events at Fuji No Chicane

[hollow hinge]

Aka two of the most iconic tracks in history

[thick lion]

Well thank goodness for discord servers full of people willing to do random races at random tracks in random cars

[hollow hinge]

See this is why custom races have become so prevalent in GT7

Not because they're good (not saying they aren't)

But because the main career is such ASS

And Polyphony's got probably the best resources for developing high quality gameplay and they waste it on bullshit like this

And they expect the players to pick up the slack

[thick lion]

The career was quite nice but LAWD every other series needs a out 5x more races

[hollow hinge]

Exactly

The fact we had to wait 2 and a half YEARS for a Ferrari event at Monza was disgraceful

Not that we couldn't use the Ferraris in the Hypercar Parade but still

[thick lion]

I have a suspicion they over-playtest every individual single race that is basically unlimited

But saying that, years in I know I still haven't 100% won everything

[hollow hinge]

I WILL be checking out the 300ZX LS7 swap

Really feels like they targeted me specifically with that one

@torpid dagger Did the Evo solve your problems? I found the best easiest 600ppmcar

AND it's not even french

[torpid dagger]

still havent played it yet

[thick lion]

Oh lmao I thought you were testing stuff at the same time as asking us all

[thick lion]

If all fails, do you want the 5 seconds per lap faster than my Mégane knowledge?

[torpid dagger]

idc abt lap times i jsut want to win

[thick lion]

I was leading by lap 3 on max difficulty in...
The Hyundai IONIQ 5N

[torpid dagger]

dont have

only ev i have is model 3 perfomance

[thick lion]

The Hyundai is 85k and I bought sports mediums and it FLEW past everything. Gotta brake SUPER early

[torpid dagger]

so brakes are shit

[thick lion]

It's very very heavy.

But 4wd, easy to handle, good cornering grip and 671hp

[torpid dagger]

on a 4 star roulette i got a weight reduction for it

[thick lion]

It's 591pp stock on sports mediums so don't even bother. But after the 600pp event absolutely apply that.

[torpid dagger]

also i dont wanna spend 85k

[thick lion]

But do you want to win?

The Tesla could be a good shout for some of the same reasons. The chassis balance isn't close to the Hyundai but it is 500kg lighter

[torpid dagger]

the tesla is not good

its fast

but dosnt brake or turn

[thick lion]

The Hyundai does turn. Once you slow it down.
And top speed is VERY valuable in the 600pp league, with wet RBR and dragon trail.

Both electric options do well in this group

[torpid dagger]

when i get on ill try tthe evo

[thick lion]

Good luck

[hollow hinge]

Man I really wish the IONIQ 5 had dirt tires

It'd be quite a bit more fun if I could jump it in Lake Louise

And maybe fantasize about the car having entered Pikes Peak before it was paved

[weary plover]

awd crossover + ineligible for dirt/snow tires = what

meanwhile the 918 and jx220 can have

i guess you can run the genesis (denesis what nintendenesis) in place of it?

forgor what was it

the g80?

no g70

[thick lion]

Nothing electric gets dirt tires which is a shame. And also weird, because that electric Monster Tajina pikes peak special in GT6 got dirt tires

[weary plover]

oh yeah i didn't notice that

[thick lion]

So going back to check on GT6, the Leaf and Mitsubishi i-Miev and Tesla Roadster also get dirt and snow tires. But the Tesla Model S, Citroen GT and Fisker Karma do not. Interesting.

[ebon eagle]

I have a question, when i was in a 400PP race with my cappuccino, when i steered hard to the left or right, it wobbled a bit to the point it bounced a bit, is there a reason that it happened?

[hollow hinge]

There could be a lot of reasons

The main one I've seen with the Cappuccino, though, is that compression and expansion, as well as natural frequency, are too low

[ebon eagle]

@hollow hinge wich would make the body to roll too much to the side since the suspension is too soft?

[hollow hinge]

More compression and expansion generally means the car will stay level and stable with changes in incline, and will be less likely to hop

[silk mortar]

July Update

[real sierra]

Another gtr?

[weary plover]

another barebones update despite the gtr

i still wanna take the 2001 z06 out for a spin though...

[hollow hinge]

Car on the right looks like a Civic EP3

🤞

[weary plover]

it's probably another suv like always

i don't think we've had any civic type r added in an update...

oh wait we have

the 2020 one

[hollow hinge]

Yeah the FL5

[weary plover]

even bigger generational gap than the 'vettes though...

[languid wraith]

R34 ztune or Mine's model
Nissan Qashqai current gen
Honda N-ONE

[thick lion]

I've seen people suggest the Crossover is the Lexus LBX

[hollow hinge]

yeah on second look it's too fat to be an ep3🥀

[thick lion]

They probably want the two type Rs that are missing. But they have to find a running, immaculate car to borrow for a number of days including probably Dyno testing and engine thrashing for the recordings.

I'm sorting of surprised two updates past the announcement we don't have that Xiaomi coming. I guess they announced that partnership as it started

[weary plover]

two and a half maybe

[thick lion]

I don't think they'll give us two 07 civics... Two identical Clios is already ridiculous, and the Twitter verse was angry about that NISMO R32.

[weary plover]

this time they're different

[thick lion]

People will whine and moan until GT7 is transformed into a WEC simulator and nothing more anyway.
I know I would love MORE near identical variations on cars. Give me the special edition Miata with a different paint and roof colour.

[weary plover]

also looks like the twitterverse has to cry more

what we need more of is y2k era 4-cylinders

[thick lion]

I hope the new R34 has some wacky different engine swap

[weary plover]

i think the last one we had was the renault kangoo?

[hollow hinge]

Definitely prefer the FD2

[weary plover]

there's one early 2000s 4-cylinder we know is like almost fully ready for gt7-ification (from what i read in gtplanet at least)

evo 7

[hollow hinge]

Ohh the Evo 7 would be SICK

[thick lion]

The kangoo is SUCH a fun racing car. Just slap on some low level basics and the thing is hilarious fun

[hollow hinge]

I have a BTCC livery on the one Kangoo

Like a support van or something

[thick lion]

Me too 🤣

[weary plover]

would've continued yapping in the wishlist subforum but i killed that channel so let's not go there

[thick lion]

I just want the ioniq gearbox activated.

[hollow hinge]

I think the number one car I want right now is the 2nd gen Eclipse though

There's NO Eclipses in the game

[thick lion]

The only car I'm screaming for is the Nissan ZEOD... Derestrict the hybrid and cause havoc in group 1. I beg 😞

Wait and the Gen3 Evo formula e car, since that isn't in anything I can play

[thick lion]

Yaris?

[vagrant coral]

yea

[thick lion]

Hmmm

[vagrant coral]

yea thats the one i think

[thick lion]

There is something going on at the back

[vagrant coral]

bonnet is same shape too

[thick lion]

The silhouette seems to be missing the central dent

But they're very specifically hiding the R34 bonnet

[vagrant coral]

its defo the r34 tho

[thick lion]

I'm still thinking LBX. Same weird bum end but I think the bonnet sculpting looks closer. Ignore the woman

[thick lion]

I'd love a Z Tune

[vagrant coral]

i think its a nismo

[thick lion]

Yes. I'm hoping the Z tune, as that had the highest performance mods

But the R Tune stickers you sometimes see are really cool

[weary plover]

despite that this update is even more barebones than the june one

it's like we're doing a double zigzag

yes-meh-meh-yes-meh-meh

[thick lion]

honda N One RS

🗣️🗣️🗣️

Im so happy

[weary plover]

still waiting for september so i can return to the gt world then though

[thick lion]

Z Tune is a HUGE cool car to get officially in a game like GT7! I hope the tuning options are interesting
But who fucking CARES when N One RS

[thick lion]

What happens in September?

[weary plover]

that's when i turn 25?

around the start of that month

-# bro literally chose a ps5 as this year's gift just to play gt7 and nothing else

[thick lion]

Sick

It's a big game

Lots of fun for you

[weary plover]

well

i did play it from its launch until august 2023

so i'd be a returning member

[languid wraith]

I LOVE THE Z TUNE RAAAAAAAAAH

[weary plover]

and from what i heard saved data is stored in the game's servers and not-

AH

and not your console's

so even if my 4 can't be repaired i still should be good?

only things that disappear are stuff you didn't upload to your library

like liveries and such

but the liveries i made were simple so i should replicate them again no problem

i think the most complicated one i did was for the '96 silvia?

[thick lion]

Yeah it's cloud based silliness

I think some of the livery stuff is cloud based too.

But I haven't had bad enough internet to really find out haha

[hollow hinge]

When I said I wanted more Japanese FWD cars I meant

The Mazdaspeed3

The Honda Prelude

The EP3 Civic and DC5 Integra/RSX

The 7th gen Celica

The Mitsubishi Colt Ralliart

And instead we're getting a Qashqai which I didn't even know (much less give a fuck) had a FWD version

[thick lion]

Why would the qwashqia be anything other than front wheel drive?
And we DID get the N One, which is FWD Japanese

[hollow hinge]

True true

[thick lion]

Like I said on twitter

[hollow hinge]

Lmao that's exactly how I'm been feeling about the updates lately

And those are the only ones that are gonna be used anyway because the other one is just more Sunday Cup slop

[thick lion]

They probably have data on what cars people buy. The suvs are an experiment. Never buy them 👍

[languid wraith]

Always buy suvs

One month closer to getting the crosstrek...

[weary plover]

yesterday

i swear this makes a7 look like a geography lesson (i love geography)

[weary plover]

inb4 next update will have 2 suvs because of that

[desert spindle]

CVT championship when

[thick lion]

Fuck CVT. Kei championship

[desert spindle]

Honda N One has a sick bodykit

kinda looks like a City Turbo with race spec

[thick lion]

It's so good

[desert spindle]

can‘t wait for Theo‘s reaction on that thing

I bet the Qashqai will only get 20 seconds of screentime like that one car

[thick lion]

I would rather the nissan gets 0

[warped sigil]

The Honda N-One might be my favorite of the trio this month.

[real sierra]

nissan qashqai

[thick lion]

OMG LS7 drift engine in the Subaru Time Attack car!!!

[languid wraith]

Qashqai solos all

[hollow hinge]

BRUH WHAT
EJ20 IN THE CLIO V6

[hollow hinge]

I actually have to start grinding today for the Z Tune

I thought having 1.8 million credits before the update would allow me to buy a few Z Tunes but I guess I was wrong

[languid wraith]

No money?

[thick lion]

The Z Tune drives like a DRREEEAAAMMM NISMO absolutely cooked god DAYUN

But 1600kg? Really? What the fuck? Thicc

[hollow hinge]

Listening to Crazy Train in an N-One rn

[meager nymph]

I have 4M credits and idk what do do with it

Does anyone have suggestions?

[hollow hinge]

Have you tried out the engine swaps?

[meager nymph]

A little but not alot

[hollow hinge]

Get a 4 rotor swap for one of your Mazdas

It's one of the most expensive engine swaps and well worth it

[meager nymph]

Ok I will try thanks

[hollow hinge]

The R26B can be swapped into the FC RX7, the FD RX7, the RX8, the Miata Touring Car, the Miata NR-A, the Mazda3, and the Mazda6 Group 3 Road Car

[meager nymph]

Do you have any other good engine swaps

[hollow hinge]

The VRH35Z can be swapped into the R32, R33 and R34 GT-Rs

Both engine swaps make the cars listed above competitive in the WTC800 events

Once you figure out how many road cars can compete in the WTC800 events your GT7 experience will never be the same

[meager nymph]

Thanks mate much appreciated

[desert spindle]

I engine-swapped the Clio and then looked up a nice livery for it.

And then I had a massive thought for a moment. So I ended up typing “toca“ in the filter. I ended up getting flooded with nostalgia after reading Autosport and Omex on the car.

If we ever get the other Clio then I hope someone recreates the livery of it from the game.

[real sierra]

Nissan qashqai piss edition 🔥

[desert spindle]

the Autosport Clio Cup is still a thing

In the Cappuccino you overtake every car before you even get there. Makes wall riding easier if you want to

[weary plover]

first (and so far only) rally event i entered after that was the super special route 5 to unlock the xsara for the fwd and n/a races

[ebon eagle]

Has anybody's game crashed when you enter in any race? Mine was very specific, I tried to race in the 550PP japanese race in Laguna Seca with a silver bone stock Honda NSX '02, the game crashes and ejects the disc out telling me the "delete data" window when i try to enter the race.

[thick lion]

Oops just maxed out discord character limit with the rules for my group 5 race night,.. and it's one night only

[thick lion]

But I also get to post this pic to it's all good

[real sierra]

[weary plover]

i just golded license ib-4 in gt3 on the first try

[warped sigil]

I have learned the LT5 engine is crap. Sure can gives the C2 Corvette 1000+hp, but it's gas milage is garbage.

[thick lion]

FWD Moments 💪

[opal scroll]

Seriously the GT3 Placement and the loosened camera makes the game sooo much better to do this shit

[weary plover]

makes me wonder if anybody made a grid start for all circuits patch

[opal scroll]

I thought they did in 1.09. Must have not read the changes in a while

[warped sigil]

Can I say...I like GT7's damage model more than FM8's

[winter anchor]

there's a damage model???

i've never crashed before

[real sierra]

Really?

[warped sigil]

Can confirm that the LT5 engine lowers the gas milage. Built a stock C2 Corvette for the LeMans 30 700 Endurance. And with the LT5 it's less than 2 laps on fuel. And without it is almost 3 laps.

[thick lion]

Umm?

Corvette VGT

[real sierra]

Corvette raahhhhh 🦅🦅🦅🦅

[thick lion]

The yellow one has a twin turbo V8 with a triple motor hynrid, hopefully for group 1
The silver one has 2000bhp, active aero, a fan, "jet-aircraft-like thrust vectoring control" and will hopefully be able to keep up with the tomahawk lol

[hollow hinge]

Finally a VGT that isn't lame

Haven't gotten one of those since the Lamborghini

[thick lion]

The Ferrari means nothing to you???

The Genesis???

[hollow hinge]

correct

I sold the Ferrari because it really felt to me like it could've been anybody's VGT

[thick lion]

It looks like the 499p and the F80 had a baby

[hollow hinge]

Yeah, and drank while pregnant

Bring back Pininfarina godDAMNIT

[thick lion]

So what doesn't tickle your fancy about the genesis?

[hollow hinge]

It just didn't feel all that special to me

And I find that an achievement for a twincharged car with around 1000HP

[thick lion]

Well, like the Volkswagens, the Toyota and the Daihatsu it kinda of wasn't special. Just a special mix of a concept series they'd already been doing.
Making a fast drive able model of the Genesis X is pretty crazy though

[hollow hinge]

If it drove half as impressively as it looked I'd be driving the Genesis regularly

I did like the electric charge efficiency on that thing though

Except whenever I went up against it in Custom Races

[thick lion]

Its tough to catch when it appears in the VGT races

[hollow hinge]

I could have sworn I set everything to 800PP

I always win but the Genesis never goes out without a fight

[thick lion]

If you want the opposite, try the racing spec jaguar. It's hilariously fast. Can empty it's battery faster than probably any other car

[hollow hinge]

@tender lion @empty bramble you guys don't play the game but you've seen my builds so I wanna know what you think

[tender lion]

im trying to choose between the fd and the powerhouse s2k

[tender lion]

the only rx7 that u have has the re amemiya kit right?

[hollow hinge]

There's a regular one and an RE Amemiya one

[tender lion]

I mean in ur garage

[hollow hinge]

I have 3 RX7s

[tender lion]

oof

[hollow hinge]

Two are regular and one is an RE Amemiya

[tender lion]

and how many s2ks?

[hollow hinge]

5

[tender lion]

woah

[hollow hinge]

3 regular and 2 Amuse

[tender lion]

ima vote for the taycan

[hollow hinge]

Get real

[desert spindle]

I got that thing for free but never touched it

[thick lion]

There have been new cars in all 5 racing groups and a whole bunch outside the groups.

[empty bramble]

Getting real with this one🗣

[thick lion]

Hot take incoming?

[desert spindle]

Matra Murena
imagine
people would be celebrating

[desert spindle]

bruh

at least the M3 lost

fuck that car

[empty bramble]

Lol

[thick lion]

Taycan is highest on the list you should do that 👍

Make a final GT world championship winning build.

[hollow hinge]

I had a different idea for that one but I can always buy another

[empty bramble]

Taycan🗣

[hollow hinge]

Next up: Porsche 911

This year's Gran Turismo trophy winner. The Invicta S Type 1929 at Pebble Beach

[thick lion]

I think 6 cars might be the most that have ever been announced as coming to the game before an official update has been put together. Is GT7 having a renaissance?

[thick lion]

If Opel has to give us a crossover SUV I hope it's this one

[still hawk]

looks like the new lancia ypsilon

[thick lion]

They'll be sharing the same chassis

[desert spindle]

same image as in Top Drives

[still hawk]

makes sense i guess

So, what we thinking

another suv at the back

[empty bramble]

more suvs wohoo.........

[thick lion]

I saw Renault Avantime rumours about that silhouette

But I'm on my e ink phone so idk

[languid wraith]

The RENAULT AVANTIME IS REAL

The list is :
Chevrolet Corvette CX Concept
Chevrolet Corvette CX.R Vision Gran Turismo
Sony Afeela 1 '26
Renault Avantime '02

[hollow hinge]

They

JUST FUCKING ADDED THE AFEELA GODDAMNIT

[languid wraith]

Production version tho!!!!

[empty bramble]

lol

[thick lion]

Hopefully this means we can mod the Afeela a bit

[sour urchin]

yeah, its sony's brand after all

can't be blamed on them

[hollow hinge]

Somehow for the first time in GT7 history the VGT is the best part of the update

[sour urchin]

only one vgt tho

i do like to drive the Avantime

its funny car

and still wait for su7 ultra, i guess will be promoted at the Berlin GTWS

with xiaomi's vgt

[thick lion]

And it's one where they slap a V8 in an EV concept AND make it into a racing car.
Twitter must be LOVING this VGT 🤣🤣🤣

The SU7 might be one of the most alarming cars to drive theyve added in years

[sour urchin]

doesn't, its good and fast

i drive one of these

[thick lion]

I think it'll be the most powerful road car they've ever added

[sour urchin]

yeah, its ev so......

48hp more than chiron

[thick lion]

So the torque will be even wilder. And the thing is geared past 200mph. This could end up being like the NFS Evija but without the handling 🤣🤣🤣

[sour urchin]

irl handling for this car is good tho, but its ev after all

car is too heavy

[thick lion]

Big chungus of a battery

As soon as people realise they just Do Not Need 100kWh the world can get better at this.
But it is a Taycan Rival right? They're similarly specced... Until the power

[empty bramble]

fat car

[sour urchin]

yeah, xiaomi mark the porsche taycan as target

and accidentally surpassed Rimac Nevera

which is crazy

[thick lion]

and it's their first ever car is anyone European even TRYING???

[tender lion]

fake

the avantime exists

that thing used to be sick on gt4

[thick lion]

I remember running the avantime in supercar lobbies in 5 and 6... Great car

[hollow hinge]

VQ gang

[empty bramble]

[hollow hinge]

Oh wait I'm thinking about the Espace of the same time period

[thick lion]

There was a V6 version too

[hollow hinge]

Yeah I know

[hollow hinge]

Down bad

||understandably so||

[empty bramble]

based

[hollow hinge]

Ping zuu he likes dua lipa

[empty bramble]

gotcha

@zealous frost

[old carbon]

Roulette tickets anyone?
https://youtu.be/jNd-2VqutG8?si=abxt3JDVgSlV8h-m

[hollow hinge]

nah

[desert spindle]

I got a Group 3 from a 3* ticket once too

[thick lion]

So who wants to join the Avantime racing I organise?

[hollow hinge]

Damn is the update already out?

[thick lion]

No it's tomorrow

But Avantime racing is happening

[thick lion]

You can put the Suzuki VGT V8 in the Avantime

Screaming

The wings.

[hollow hinge]

I hope to fuck the Mitsubishi Eclipse never comes to the game or I SWEAR TO FUCK I WLL DEMAND A REFUND

||maybe this'll get them to add the eclipse since they've only added one car of worth this update and it's not even what anybody wanted||

[thick lion]

Am I nobody to you

[hollow hinge]

The fucking Corvette VGT is useless

When the battery goes out the car becomes unusable

There's two electric cars which means barely anything to do with those cars

The Avantime is alright I guess

Idk the datamined list is the first I've ever heard of it

[thick lion]

The corvette VGT is a new hybrid race car which is always entertaining. You have to learn how to manage these things.
The avantime is a returning classic, one of the iconic weird renaults

The Vette CX is a monster though

Some of the worst active aero I've ever used in a GT game, so very entertaining to race against people in the same car

I need to buy the CXR, it could be a car you can race with the Ferrari VGT, which also has a pitiful battery

[hollow hinge]

I bought the CX.R thinking it'd be a blast to drive

[thick lion]

It was brilliant fun in the Laguna Seca time trial

[hollow hinge]

Once the battery depletes you can pass it in a Corolla

[thick lion]

Lmao what did they do with the motors? The CX has 2000bhp from four motors, and the CXR has 3 motors + engine

[hollow hinge]

I could HEAR the "oh my god bruh oh HELL nah man wtf" when it slowed down

[thick lion]

Anyways hybrid energy management can make for extremely tense complicated close racing.

[hollow hinge]

No wonder the car can only compete against itself in Quick Race because that's the only car it can beat

So I guess I'm doing the Spa event in a McLaren F1 now

[thick lion]

That's hybrid race cars. Gotta manage the battery. It's the same in the LMP1 cars, real F1, and every goofy Toyota Aqua championship I've run

[hollow hinge]

Can't be competing in a Group 2 event in a car that becomes slower than a Group 4 car when it runs out of battery

[thick lion]

Just like the Ferrari VGT lmao

The harder it is to get a car to WORK over a full race the more I enjoy them. I love wacky stuff like this

[hollow hinge]

I don't

And maybe that's my problem is I take things too seriously

Either way I sold the car

Maybe I'll buy it again when I get the CLK LM that's in the Hagerty dealer

[thick lion]

You hate the LMP1 hybrids as well, then?

[hollow hinge]

No

Okay maybe the TS050

And TS030

And the pre buff GT-R

[thick lion]

You still have to MANAGE that GTR battery

It's full time.

[hollow hinge]

I legit don't remember anything else though

The 919 and GR010 are regular drives for me

But that's because they have better battery that lasts longer and recharges while coasting

And the cars don't become straight up uncompetitive when the battery somehow does run out

[thick lion]

Well, hybrid LMP1 pace, along a while race, is about sacrificing the odd corner entry to regain more battery for exit. It's so complex I love it.
The 919 is unique in having a heat recovery system, like F1 did, that's working all the time.

[thick lion]

That's where you see the development time in those as race cars v these design study VGTs.

[hollow hinge]

Oh I like using the McLaren too

But I only have the regular one not the Group 1

[thick lion]

The GR1 needs a bit of battery management to keep going across a race. I'm running a series in the group 1 Visions, the McLaren is rapid but demands a different driving style across a race distance. Very interesting

[thick lion]

Woah oh my god it's so much crazier than I expected with a lot battery

[hollow hinge]

Yeah I lost the battery down from the hairpin and lost ALL momentum up Eau Rouge

Got passed twice before I even reached the next corner

[thick lion]

What by?

[hollow hinge]

Given it was the NSXs

Kevin Pounder and Angel Inostroza in their tryhard RAYBRIG NSXs

[thick lion]

Damn, because my CXR is still happily running well past 300k at road Atlanta without a battery. 8 seconds off the pace, mind. And if you don't realise the hybrid is coming back online you understeer off the next corner.
This will be a hilarious one make race

[hollow hinge]

Perhaps if Polyphony loves hybrid and electric cars so much they should make events dedicated to them

Available to race and road cars alike

No PP limit like the Hypercar Parade events

No fuel consumption

I mean they can't expect to hype up the Xiaomi they're adding if they're just gonna restrict it to Sunday Cup and Quick Race

[thick lion]

Fuel consumption is much much much more interesting when you're racing hybrids and EVs

Also, the CX.R without battery matches all the lap times I ever set with the old Audi R18

[thick lion]

Some more high level unlimited races would be very very cool

[tender lion]

NOT ONE

[hollow hinge]

Furxy we're literally talking about the same car

[tender lion]

oh

[hollow hinge]

Yeah the CXR was a disappointment

It's another hardstuck Quick Race car

@empty bramble you were about to say

[empty bramble]

huh

oh nothing

[hollow hinge]

k

[tender lion]

hell yeah

[opal scroll]

We'll never get attention to detail like this again, watching the photographers running out to get a picture then run back into the crowd

[tender lion]

its not just the photographers, is it?

[opal scroll]

I think some people run in the middle of the road too, not too sure

[real sierra]

I love monza

[empty bramble]

M4 GT3, G Wagon and Xiaomi all in the courtyard at the GT World Series

[thick lion]

Also with there being an invitational Corsa VGT race we're almost certainly seeing that car in the next update

[languid wraith]

We will probably see those cars sooner than later

[desert spindle]

I don‘t want a fucking G Wagon in the game

unless it‘s one of the old ones that are actually built for offroad then it‘s fine

[empty bramble]

old g wagons beat new g wagons any day

[desert spindle]

People these days are too stupid to drive one anyway

one car is a great example for that

it has the feature to make the car move up and down to gain grip on offroad slopes to regain grip, which is a technique used for races back then that involved getting up a hill

some retards keep using it on a flat asphalt road

they‘re all brain dead

why the fuck do you need grip in neutral?

[thick lion]

It looks fun

[hollow hinge]

🎶 Little ghetto booooooooy, playing in the ghetto streeeeeeets🎶

[languid wraith]

It is a funi car to add to gt7

And we always need more funi cars

[thick lion]

Well, no Xiaomi, no G Wagon and no extra Skodas

I'm thinking
Toyota FJ40
Opel VGT
Rav4 🤮
Clueless on the sedan
Another ND MX5?!?

[weary plover]

so not only one suv but now 2

also that's probably gonna be a 124 spider

[thick lion]

Where's the other SUV????

[thick lion]

I figured it out.
It's the Mazda Spirit Racing 12R, a factory tuned Roadster special just for Japan, with more power than the standard car.
It has the wing you can see in silhouette

[empty bramble]

I need that

[thick lion]

I can't wait to see what a more hardcore roadster feels like.

The ND always feels wonderful in gran Turismo

[hollow hinge]

That's not a sedan it's the new BMW M4

[thick lion]

We'd be able to see the bonnet scoops behind the nostrils if it were

I'm thinking Elantra N, and the weird aero piece isnt a strange window edge but the small wing option

[hollow hinge]

I'm vaugely interested in trying out the FJ40

[thick lion]

Met a new kind of guy on twitter today.
Under the Kaz silhouette whinging that there are no hydrogen combustion cars in GT7... I asked "what cars would you have that do that? There's none"
They ranted about water powered engines for two hours at me then blocked me. Lmao

I think they were in the Philippines

[hollow hinge]

Super Taikyu cars maybe

[thick lion]

Yeah the GR Yaris.

Which is in the game already. It was such a crazy rant

[languid wraith]

Sedan is prob the elentra n

[hollow hinge]

Yeah I knew it was an ugly car

[thick lion]

Is this ugly? It isn't even a modern BMW

[desert spindle]

Isn‘t there a race version of this?

I actually like it.

It‘s one of the cars with modern looks that I actually like.

[thick lion]

TCR.

Hyundai Canada will sell you a replica of that wing for the road 🤣

[empty bramble]

I NEED I WANT THIS THING

For no reason it looks sick as hell

[thick lion]

The Hyundai is FWD right? Very sure someone will make a race spec of it when it comes out.

[thick lion]

Yes it is. And yes, that person is me.

[empty bramble]

Yes he will be the one

[hollow hinge]

There's like one series besides the Sunday Cup that the Elantra can enter right now so there better be some new events if more Hyundais is the direction they're taking

[thick lion]

???

WTC600 and 700

[hollow hinge]

Oh yeah that too

[thick lion]

Maybe 800

Probably not

[hollow hinge]

Still if they're gonna add more Hyundais then they should add a Hyundai series

[thick lion]

Maybe the Japanese cups should become Asian cups

Oh and the Turbo sports series

[hollow hinge]

That's the series I was talking about

Race of Turbo Sports Cars

[thick lion]

And you can probably enter a few of the late game championships too.

[hollow hinge]

HOLY SHIT

[desert spindle]

Hopefully Yas Marina has all of it‘s layouts and not just the longest course

[thick lion]

They might only give us the long course, to drop all the other layouts for GT8, like they did with Barcelona and Logo Maggiore

[hollow hinge]

I at least hope it's the post 2023 version

The old north facing chicane was atrocious

[thick lion]

Oh from one of the pictures you can see it's the updated Yas Marina without the freaky chicane-hairpins

[hollow hinge]

Good, good

[thick lion]

I don't know why they didn't do that to the circuit 10 years ago...

[hollow hinge]

According to Theo we might not get any update until December

because the next version listed in the video is the one appearing on December

Yeah the overtake button is a GAME CHANGER

[hollow hinge]

Literally a Bugatti killer button

[thick lion]

It's gonna win me the championship i picked it for 🤣

GT PSP is still alive. And I was able to enjoy it haha

[languid wraith]

It's great

[vagrant coral]

why yours looks weird

are u playing on emulator

[opal scroll]

Define "Weird" 🤣

[still hawk]

Lighting too bright?

[vagrant coral]

it hasnt got the right hud

[thick lion]

The giveaway is the digital image screen captures

[vagrant coral]

yea

it looks so weird compared to the psp version

[thick lion]

I think @opal scroll is emulating on their phone (???) and I think it's got a wider FOV. On PSP it has a narrow one so you can see far ahead in the chase cam.

[vagrant coral]

ah

[opal scroll]

It's PSP, I changed the FOV

[thick lion]

Oh my fucking god I'm getting my wish!!??

Will the 296 complete the line of those modern V8 Ferraris from 430- today?

[hollow hinge]

No because first of all it has a V6

[thick lion]

Oh yeah 🤣🤣🙃

You know what I mean though, right? The junior MR Ferrari

[hollow hinge]

How long ago was it that they confirmed the Xiaomi cars were coming to the game

Not that I'm excited for the cars or anything but at least keep your word goddamn

Unless they'd just started scanning the models when they put the word out

[thick lion]

7th June

In what way are they not keeping their word???

[hollow hinge]

Okay so they did confirm this update coming up isn't the last one

Either I really missed a big news drop or my memory's just really bad

[thick lion]

In September they tweeted the SU7 Ultra would come to GT7

They didn't say when. They never do.

engine swaps

[thick lion]

That Chiron engine will get thrown at anything

[desert spindle]

A bunch of people keep buying the 5M credits pack instead of the Power Pack

bruh

[thick lion]

People HATE to read screens. They DESPISE it

They probably should have removed that 5mil button from PS5, at least for a week

[thick lion]

New Nurburgring layout

[desert spindle]

Yas Marina has only one layout 😔

[thick lion]

This is what the gaps between them look like. And the rallycross bits are here.
More is likely arriving in GT8

Also

[zealous frost]

ripped straight from test drive unlimited solar crown

[thick lion]

The Dodge Ram is also here I forgot to get a pic, but that's the ol' PS2 model. I think.

This stinky model is RIGHT NEXT to the track. Yikes

And the RS6 Avant and Acura CL also both stinky ass PS2 models, but they appear everywhere

[hollow hinge]

You can smell the mold from these models

[thick lion]

I'm now exploring Grans Valley, another update track.

Oh this is juicy

That's a Merc X Class pickup.

An American van...

[hollow hinge]

And a BMW M5 AMG Coupe

[thick lion]

Yeah that one looks WAY fake

The R8 drop top might be a red herring

Beetle!

Early F12?

Nissan Leaf model? And Fiat 500 for sanity, as that's what a de-res model for clutter looks like.

TWINGO!!!

Plus some rat ass old SUV, Volvo XC something and some crusty Jeep

[thick lion]

PD are out here calling Polestar fucking idiots

[hollow hinge]

Meanwhile their two

British race tracks

Somehow have

No rain

[desert spindle]

They have a rallycross section?

[vagrant coral]

finally hit 500k points lets go

(i spent too much time on this game)

also ended up with 5 mines r34 skylines now idek how

ive got 1 of the "base" r34 gtr (the vspec 2) built into mines spec

got 1 of the nismo r34 z tunes built into a mines drift built r34

and then 3 of the new official ones

one on te37s, one on bbs RE and then one built as the builtbylegends car

building the r33 and r32 with the mines rb26 now 🥀

maybe got a small problem

[thick lion]

I recorded a video lemme post

[desert spindle]

looks sick actually

hope the other variants appear too tho

[thick lion]

Me too. You can see how little of the other layouts is undriveable today, so there's minimal low resolution track for those layouts.

And the south support pit lane looks pretty well rendered.

[desert spindle]

I‘m annoyed by the amount of layouts missing

[hollow hinge]

I'm just glad the dumbass chicane is gone

That was the worst part of the track in my honest opinion

[thick lion]

It's actually... Decent without them

How the fuck did they build it with those in the first place? The whole ISLAND was purpose built to have an F1 track on it

[hollow hinge]

Yeah now the new worst part of the track is this sharp chicane facing west which will never be removed because there's a fucking hotel there

[desert spindle]

rich people moment

they build where they want

[vagrant coral]

lmao

Working on a late 90s Multiclass ruleset for Super GT and 300 is really fun and goofy! All but one of these cars is super competitive at Tsukuba

Gonna be a fun series once we get going, it's going to have power and modification regulations instead of a PP limit for 300 class... And FF is ridiculously strong at this level

[hollow hinge]

I see we both have the asap rocky car

[thick lion]

We have good taste

[weary plover]

peak detected

wait whuh
