Gran Turismo 7 Engine Swap Compatibility

[hamishl]

I wonder if PD will look at the C8 ZR1 and add the BRZ LS swap as an option for the C8 Vette

 

[lbpomg95]

Wait...is the Drift brz the only car that gets a lower power output from a swap with the Gr2 NSX engine compared to the stock engine? Such a thing existing makes me hopeful for future swaps possibly having lower power output than base engines but still giving options

Even if that never happens, de-LS'ing the drift brz feels cathartic as that dumb turbo V8 has ruined many a car in GT7 in my eyes

One of the new Supras gets the LFA engine, technically a downgrade in power.

C7 Gr.3 engine swap for C8 would be awesome for longer races

I mean not after tuning but the base engine, and if anything the LFA engine is an upgrade anyway

Is there anyway to know which cars on my garage have a swapped engine? Same as the wide bodied cars.

Check the tunning sheet, if the engine name is in green it means it is a swapp.

Widebody cars have a "wide car" label, easy to see when you visit your garage and check your cars.

Edit: random pictures I found on the internet.

Engine name in green = swapp

Wide car label = widebody car

Sadly not, without opening the tuning sheet. I myself started marking swapped cars as favorites because I have no other use for that feature.

Look the hp. Swapped cars tend to have much more hp

I have marked all my engine swapped cars as a FAVOURITE and you will see a gold star in the box denoting such in garage view.

I don't currently have a Porsche 356 A/1500 GS GT Carrera Speedster '56 so someone else will need to check this one.

The Porsche 356 gets the 959.50-959 engine (!)

 

[GTboyz]

Oooh the Gordini with the SR20 sounds fun.

Too bad the Gordini, as a few other "tuned" cars, is usable in hardly any event as those require road cars. I'd love to use it more.

 

[ROCKET JOE]

So there's nine new cars but no new engine to be swapped ? Is that correct ?

Edit
P.S. Did anyone track how many cars can have more than one swap engines ?

 

[the Interceptor]

Yes, all of these engines have been swapped into other cars before.

 

[Savolainen83]

Nevermind.

 

[ZedNinetySix]

Nevermind.

 

[MidnightRun85]

Wow! That will be a demonic car once fully tuned! Now I'm glad I have a few of them...

 

[Famine]

First post updated, new swaps in bold as usual.

 

[lilcat89]

The only new swap that looks at all appealing to me is the B18 swap for the new EF Civic. The rest sound like massive overkill to me.

 

[MIE1992]

First I was thinking of putting the one S15 engine that I have laying around into a spare Fairlady Z 432 at some point, but now I’m not as sure. Putting it into the Alpine A110 ‘72 sounds especially interesting, or perhaps a Renault 5 Turbo.

I've already build an '04 Impreza with the Porsche engine swap and it's surprisingly good so far at 600pp. Haven't tried it at 700pp yet but will soon.

・Subaru Impreza Sedan WRX STi '04 - DKH-911

I don't currently have a Porsche 356 A/1500 GS GT Carrera Speedster '56 so someone else will need to check this one.

So, the new swaps basically are:

• SR20 everything
• B18 Civic is always nice
• 911 GT2 RS 992
• The WRC EVO VIII we never got

Some are interesting indeed, some are just weird. But they're all welcome regardless!

Surely it cannot be any worse than the last collaboration between Renault and Nissan?!

YAY!!!

My quirky, underpowered French lightweights now get a power boost!

The Citroën DS 21 Pallas swap, I believe is a reference to a deal with Porsche that fell through during the car's design -- the engine the DS ultimately came with many felt, held the car back from an even greater legendary status.

I am definitely going to reference this in my next build:

@MIE1992 That should be a fun swap. With the regular engine, I got a fully modded A110 up to about 190mph / 305kph on the Nordeshielf straightaway without a draft. But the A110 '72 always needed a good tune to calm down its oversteer. Also, it doesn't get any front downforce.

The Renault 5 Turbo may be a more balanced choice to start with, but it will still be quirky because of the short wheelbase.

 

[Goldin]

Renault R5 Turbo '80 - SR20DET-Silvia-S15 looks promissing, and Civic-Integra also as I like to keep it real.
Also hoped that DS21 will get Merak V6 as refference to SM.

 

[kjb]

I am excited to try the a swapped Pallas and the Gordini most. Especially the Pallas that car is painfully slow

 

[Zenwarrior]

Hmm. It's 9 from usually 10 swaps. Could PD forgot to write 1 more to the patch notes or it's oddly 9?
