This is mine. Tuned down to 600pp for Tokyo. It is very fuel efficient. No pit stops needed with SH tyres.Has anyone engine swapped the BMW 3.0 CSL?

Way to go man, that's awesome!The 1200 took down Sarthe relatively easily. She’s a little iffy in the rain, but that’s really no surprise is it?
Nice work gents!
This DMC tune I did with a swap is working out good enough to share. TCS 1 at least is suggested, and she’s quite thirsty, so fuel on 6, but she still pulls away from AI 700pp.Anyone got the delorean swap? No idea what to do with it.
The Porsche Curves kill it :-( I do think it is achievable though BUT between the rain and the heavy fuel consumption and not quite getting to the 700PP on race hards it will take quite a bit of effort to get the win.Way to go man, that's awesome!
Now you have to do it in the Sambabus.
Finally have done it :-) And not just once, twice now to make sure it was not a fluke. The unpredictable rain at La Sarthe makes doing comparisons difficult and boy oh boy this Samba Bus (Kombi) is quite fun in the rain on full wets but it did help to get the wins.The Porsche Curves kill it :-( I do think it is achievable though BUT between the rain and the heavy fuel consumption and not quite getting to the 700PP on race hards it will take quite a bit of effort to get the win.
And be warned, because of the "tender" rear end and the GR4 cars having better brakes be aware the AI WILL spin you at every opportunity :-( I can't make it past the 2nd lap without rage quitting ;-)
I think I am going to have to try some different tuning options. Anyway, it fills in time ;-)
Now where's that engine for my DeLorean? :-))
Don’t let me forget this one. Probably not the next cycle, but I do want to get it on the list.Honda Integra DC2 '98 with K20C1 swap
Oh you know that’s next when I get down to VW again!Way to go man, that's awesome!
Now you have to do it in the Sambabus.
I’m going to try and get to this one tomorrow. D’oh! Forgot I might need the egine first.This DMC tune I did with a swap is working out good enough to share. TCS 1 at least is suggested, and she’s quite thirsty, so fuel on 6, but she still pulls away from AI 700pp.
Aero on this bad boy?Mine for the RX787 - 600PP
Yea, so I just no-stopped Sarthe with it. Obiously the weather cooperated and the lap times were rather pedestrian, but that was awesome! Great patience must be taken with her or she will try and kill you. Bravo!Mine for the RX787 - 600PP
do you know the reason? please share thnx 😥I knew op would get banned. Joined- jun 17 banned jul 2- rip-
Out of curiousity, I was posting a lot of my times at the same time on Pra’s wall and took that comment partially directed at me. At the time I didn’t understand it and have curtailed the behavior significantly and resorted to hiding the screenshots behind spoilers and not posting anything if there’s not something notable about the time(s), 1, for less clutter and 2, because it seemed it wasn’t appreciated. Now, if someone wants to see, they just click the button, if they don’t, just keep on scrollin‘!He was posting alot of his "times" on the maestro's tuning page. After 3 pages of him posting amongst the usual thread banter, to the point of me actually posting,
("Is it really necessary to post your lap of every single vehicle vehice? This is a tune/tip sharing thread? No need to share your results for every tune in a thread of 150 pages...)
no offense taken i was just curious what happened to the OP of this thread considering i visit here frequently the "banned" notification always catches my eyes.anyways, im hoping this thread can still continue and grow with new tunes in the future.thanks for the explanation.I am not admin, but I believe he was one of the ones that only came around for 'tips and tunes' because of the "bonanza" ticket glitch that was yielding swaps and parts.

I believe he was sharing false info as well, engine swap thread maybe? Been a couple months now.
I was down for surgery, but now am back at work, havent been following threads as much.
He wasn't a long time member like most here, only here for a glitch. (No offense to you, joined june 22 as well I see)
Now he isprobably running around Tokyo in a swapped car doing ricer fly bys and going "reverse".
This is all my assumptions/opinion and are not the thoughts of gtplanet lol
@Famine ultimately would be the one to ask!!
Ps-
A thread for swaps was needed anyways, the glitch just had new folks scrambling everywhere for quick satisfaction.
No one said it had to be pretty right? Mission:accomplished. Entertaining to say the least, I’d love to take it on a dry day sometime.Finally have done it :-) And not just once, twice now to make sure it was not a fluke.

Samba Bus up to 695 PP depending on suspension settings <palm slap to forehead> ;-)
Tuning Bits: Everything! If it can be fitted put it on.
Tips: FM 1 is only 2 laps FM 5 gets 3 comfortably and still has lots of speed. Don't let it slide too much as it destroys tyres :-(
I got it kinda’ close, but I don’t want to test it until I can get a closer match. Can you provide the GT parts used as well as the upgrades? I’m about 10 PP over right now.My 700pp M3 GTR tune. You can swap for hards and increase power if you want. Easy 1 stop on fuel map 1 on La Sarthe
I don’t suppose you have the tuning sheets for this one?This is mine. Tuned down to 600pp for Tokyo. It is very fuel efficient. No pit stops needed with SH tyres.
I dont think it matters, I'm no forum guru, just a long time member! People share times frequently, even on pras page, but just like alcohol, all in moderation! 1 post every once in a while, not to the point of almost spam, as he was. I enjoy all your posts in all the forums, keep up the good work, sorry if you took any offense!Out of curiousity, I was posting a lot of my times at the same time on Pra’s wall and took that comment partially directed at me.

Is this a more appropriate approach or is it considered proper forum etiquette to refrain from that altogether?
In retrospect, my posting was probably a bit excessive as well, that’s why I have curtailed it a bit and only when its actually something noteworthy (in regards to lap times at least, lol). None taken, you helped to make me a better contributor!I dont think it matters, I'm no forum guru, just a long time member!

Install a custom wing, it lowers the pp by about 16 points. You can go more power with more ballast or less power with less ballast. This tune is in the middle more or less and the rear end only gets a little happy on the first lap while it's very wet. (different livery but same car from my other post)I don’t suppose you have the tuning sheets for this one?
Holy Hell is that car fast! Getting out of 2nd is an arduous task though, maybe using the M Turbo was the culprit however. I‘d definitely give this one another run at some point, well done!Install a custom wing, it lowers the pp by about 16 points. You can go more power with more ballast or less power with less ballast.

She’s competitive with all the other swapped tunes I’ve tested and may be the best of the bunch. The skies opened up on me this race, so I never got a truly clean lap. That said, I was very impressed by her wet-track ability. Up for a retest, but I was quite happy with the car.Got my Dodge Challenger tune completed .
Man, I am not happy right now. I pulled in at L6 for a tire change and my last fuel top-off and the game did not refuel me. I was on such a good pace, had ideal conditions and was on pace to lap the ENTIRE field, I was thinking a 4:05 for L7 was likely. Excellent tune, look for me to shatter these times and exact my vengeance soon.Challenger ‘70 (Swapped)
