Had the Bonanza not occur, I feel like this was probably on the table, but then got canned because someone will probably hoard K20s

Or LS swap literally everything.

I hope the "Value" you see on the engines you earn from the Roulette aren't just there as a placeholder, and actually have a means of selling/buying.
Having 💯+ of bonanza era motors can net some extra value when your daily " roulette ripoff reward" vehice happens to take a motor you have extra of.

And unfortunately, even though the 787b" is valued at 1.000.000 on the reward ticket, you dont get that value at the appraisal. I Believe there was some discussion on here when selling cars became available about which swaps were profitable when sold.

I've dropped the lexus' motor in the gift tundra for few extra coins 2wice now. Same with the re' rx7 and 10 ultra turbos. Once we have "one" of something most of us shun duplicates anyways. (Except for engines with multiple chassis options, and S parts, we can never have too many nismo ultra turbos and titanium rods, being rare and fitting a few cars.

You lose money on the lt5 brz i believe-(lol)
Values more bone stock, than stock with swap.
 
The Mazda roadster is insane with the Corvette engine. Got a dry track and conserved enough fuel to make a last lap banzai run, this little guy is a blast!

Still loving the M3-Z4 swap as my favorite though.

Because I enjoy a stat, I compiled a quick spreadsheet for the available engines, available swaps, and my % of those...

Despite having 103 engines available to fit, I've only got 71% of the 28 available engines, 8 missing, seven of which I've never received.

In total, there's 55 cars which can be swapped, and I own 52 of them - however I've only made 20 swaps (37% of the available swaps)...

Useless information, but I found it interesting!
I want to party with this guy!

952hp jeep rally monster big roost off all four.

Go get em WG!! Yes, that roadster is super fun. So far I've won La Sarthe 700 PP with all the swaps I've done except for the Sambabus. It's loads of fun but lacking just a bit more oomph. Looking forward to doing the Jeep & Ford roadster swaps.

Unbelievable. On the 2 most recent engine tickets, I received back to back Lexus GT500 engines. Which I already have many of....

They have to have something in the works better than this fake roulette?

That LT1 engine can be great on fuel with the right tuning / upgrades. I use a C7 Stingray which has been tuned to make as much low end power as possible (no bigger cam, engine balance tuning, crank, or supercharger upgrades), then is power restricted down to 395hp. I can do 3 laps on fuel map 1 doing 4:03 - 4:07 laps, then do the other 4 laps on a combo of map 1 and map 6 doing 4:06 - 4:10.

Might be a good idea for that Mazda too as that thing will be a handful with too much power lol.

Sambabus! I got to get that, hopefully soon. I keep getting crappy tickets lately.

Prof, I got the Mazda at 781hp and it can do 3 laps on 6 but, I'm going to try it without the supercharger and see what it will do.

Is it only possible to get engine tickets trough the daily drive and café "collector level"? If not, how can i get the tickets?
Yes, you can find the engine tickets only by completing extra menus in the Café or out of sheer luck from the daily reward.
 
I've been stuck in this weekend so I had time to run all my swaps in TT for comparisons sake, and a few others I wanted to try.

Found one thing I thought was interesting, the game listed the BRZ under 600pp and 700pp even though both configurations were under 700pp and I can get in all under 700pp events with both.

Then I noticed the game listed the Mini in the 700pp listing and it can't get to even 600pp and said "who cares it make no GT sense" and went back to driving!

These are the swaps on both my accounts

I watch the image first and i think: why this car looks weird? the colour like plastic? 🧐
Then realise that is from Forza. 😅
Im not trolling. I said the truth .
Definitely different quality. It was snapped about seven years ago. Was going for an ugly look on a fast car. ;) The Color is a metallic flake green.
 
I've sold the Jeep I got from missions, when it comes back in the legend cars I'll buy it and put the Hellcat engine in it so I can use it if a new championship is ever added.

Wow, I’ve never received an engine on a daily roulette and not disappointed about my first!

I know it’s new but has anyone dropped this in the F40 yet? The only (mild) reservation I have about swapping now is the potential of another compatible car being added in future updates. I currently have 2 F40s & 2 Enzo’s (700 pp & 800 pp for each) and really like all 4 of them with modified factory engines. Curious if the swapped F40 is essentially a 30 year-old Enzo or superior enough to justify using now. My practical & responsible self says to wait, however it is very provocative!

Thoughts?

Mine keeps rolling over. Got a link to tune?

So far the jeep has been the most fun. Four tire fire short wheel base, probably the best 4x4 HP/lb ratio. It’s a blast vs hyper cars
Sports soft front, Racing Soft Rear, maximum downforce front and rear.

set the LSD to about:
15
12
45

front & rear camber to 2.0°
rear toe: 0.35 (in)
front toe: -0.10 (out)

the rest is kind of up to you, should be a good baseline.


Despite the huge differences in tyres front and rear, I was able to take corners about as fast as Gr.4 cars in online lobbies.
