Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

It's times like these where I'm grateful that Route X runs clockwise. Imagine coming over the crest of the inclined road and suddenly JUMBO JET IN YOUR FACE.

Can anyone explain what difference the Extra trim makes for the Civic as opposed to a normal Si? I can’t find anything that says what differences it has

If I'm not mistaken, the extra refers to the added amenities over the previous model. (Electric Windows, ABS and a Sunroof)

It's Extra fun to drive!

- The wireless controller steering algorithm has been updated:
　　・The steering algorithm when using the analogue sticks or the directional pad has been improved, resulting in better handling.

Can be both good or bad.

Thing is, this Extra SI doesn't have the sunroof, but looks to have power windows. I'm sure it'll have ABS.

CH-R aside, I'm confused why they wouldn't have modeled the SiR Civic...

So they have an excuse to add another version of the car at some point. It’s something we’ve been seeing more and more, and it wouldn’t surprise me considering how many variations of JDM cars they included in older GT games.

Honda Collection Hall in Motegi where this Si resides has no EF9. Honda never kept one outside of the Idemitsu Motion Group A car.

This line always concerns me;

-Performance Points (PP) for certain cars have been updated;

Time to retune but hopefully not too much.

Can somebody have a quick look which cars got nerfed if they get chance.im not home from work until 4pm. 👍

The f1 car can be totally modified😍 (minute 2.30)

Those cars that I have most interest in have seen an increase of between +0.5 (very rare) up to +25(also not too common), with an average of +10.
They all were supposed to be at the 600pp mark.
As usual, the Aston Martin DP100 still sits comfortably at a premium spot, and the Rotaccino with just barely 570 is in a league of its own.
The Stratos as my prefered choice, after monthes of not being "adjusted" nos creeps higher and higher and the setup I used when I started playing now propably would sit at 680pp

I did, in yesterday's article

Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.55 Arrives January 30: Four New Cars, More Sophy Circuits

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLBtn5F5j2o Gran Turismo 7 fans will have some new content to get to grips with later this week, with the next game content update, 1.55, now confirmed to be available on Thursday January 30. It's a return to the usual timings for updates, following a very earl

The car at the back of the shot did indeed prove to be a classic Honda Civic Si, but in the shape of the EF rather than the earlier AH (or AT).

Specifically, it’s the Si Extra model, which gained amenities like electric windows and optional ABS and sunroof at a mild weight penalty.

That's awesome! Hope that they do some stuff like this for the F1500T-A eventually too, unless they already have and I'm remembering wrong

I was wondering if my precious R33 engine swap,400R stock but tuned and engine swap Delta Integrale have escapex ths knife.Cant wait to get home and try.

With the leaderboards reset I decided to gen an early word record in the pit in or stay out 1 mission in a meme car.

The time to beat is at the start and the tune is at the end. Cars in general now have a higher pp so for 600 pp exactly that might make for a new dominant car and I will do more testing later but I know for sure driving in rain is more fun now and using a controller seems more consistent over.

I can't imagine a better reasonable car for a young driver than a Toyota Hybrid, especially the 1.8 that the CHR initially got. Reliable like nothing else. Looks like Japan also got a 1.2 turbo non-hybrid, but the GT7 screenshots show a blue haze in the Toyota badge, meaning it's definitely a hybrid. Looking online it seems the JDM version of the CHR did get the LED taillights in the higher trims, like the "G".

Europe also got 1.2 turbo C-HR, and that engine was in C-HR that raced on Nurburgring 24h. It's a shame we haven't got that engine as would make more options for tuning and to recreate car that raced on Nurb 24h.
With no engine and transmission swaps, Toyota Hybrids have limited use in the game, they could at least add some eco challenge missions for them.

 

[Obelisk]

The C-HR is surprisingly pleasant to drive!

Loving the extra part additions for the civic. Wish I could have the yellow antenna with the black mask together though. Gonna need multiple versions for pics 👌🏻

My Escudo went from 800 to 804
787B from 800 to 789
962C from 800 to 782
908 HDi from 800 to 785

Overall, looks to be a bit more breathing room extra aero and/or power.

Most of my engine swaps have gone up,not by a lot at first glance,but when you have to keep adding ballast more and more before the PP drops to 600 again its a bind.The Subaru GrB rally car jumped from 600 to 614pp,very hard to get it back down to 600pp and still be competetive.A lot of my 700-800pp cars seem to have very little or no adjustment.It is what it is I guess,just seems to be the 600pp class that gets the biggest nerfs.

When using the power limiter to adjust to prior PP, my Ford GT '17 had lost 20hp from the 1.49 update and has now lost another 15. A widebody Acura lost 12 hp and now has a lot of off-throttle oversteer. The Ioniq Q is tail happy too, but with that car it's sorta fun!
