Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.52 Discussion Thread

[ShonnDaylee]

Physics changes, and Fanatec Wheel FFB changes. Nice.

Also an Engine swap for the HiAce, right off the bat. Extra nice. Here we go!

 

[Vule]

The following cars are now compatible with Engine Swaps (Unlocked at Collector Level 50):
　・Mazda Roadster NR-A (ND) '22
　・Mazda Roadster Touring Car
　・Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Final Edition '15
　・Mitsubishi GTO Twin Turbo '91
　・Nissan Silvia Q's (S13) '88
　・Nissan Silvia spec-R Aero (S15) Touring Car
　・Toyota 86 Gr.4
　・Toyota 86 GRMN '16
　・Toyota 86 GT '15
　・Toyota Hiace Van DX '16

Most of these were already swappable?

And this:
1. Vehicle Physics Simulation
- We have adjusted the control settings for some cars. These include:
　・Measures for front lift during cornering
　・Measures for oversteer during braking

Let's see, this was bugging me the most since the new physics update, just mind boggling rear end sliding on trailbraking, compared to the previous game version.

Between the engine swaps, the van and the physics fixes (hopefully fixes anyway) this update is looking like a really good one! Glad I was wrong

Here we go.

A question: as far as I'm aware, there is no car which can be engine swapped with two different engines, and also there has never been a car for which the engine swap was changed to a different new engine. Is this correct? If yes, it is reasonable to assume that cars which already have a swap will likely never receive a second or a different swapping option.

I know there was a misprint when the AE86 Sprinter got a swap. The Trueno already had a swap and PD or Sony printed the wrong info. Maybe this is that.

There were a lot of complaints about penalties for the Eiger pit entry, hopefully it’s marked better now.

Little disappointed that Sophy is only on two new tracks, but it shows how long it takes for each circuit

 

[05XR8]

So weird. They extend the paint for pit entry at Eiger, but the Suzuka Banner hasn’t changed.

 

[Skygrasper550]

Hold up. Didn’t someone ask the question about cars receiving two different engine swaps? Unless it’s a glitch or I’m missing something. The Silvia Q’s and Touring Car already have engine swap options.

Also the Evo Final Edition and GTO. IIRC they already have the Escudo engine swap.

It must be tested to be sure. I think we should get a couple of races on eiger reverse in weekly challenges to test it!

Have they reset leaderboards now again for Circuit Experiences, License tests and so on.... ?

 

[hyperspeed980]

Glad the physics actually appear to have been addressed. Would've been a right disaster if everyone's new Evo 8 was lifting six feet into the air every corner

As for the second swaps, if the Silvia TC ends up getting a V8 swap I know quite a few NASCAR fans who'll be happy!

 

[RobertHammer]

I hope the Gallardo will be fixed too - i quite like the replica of the GT2 race car

 

[HarVee]

Car content is meh for me. 2 months wait for what is essentially copy-paste. All three of these cars existed in the game already in some variation, so they had an easier go of it this time around. Easily 70 percent of the assets can (and have) be reused from those other cars.

However, the introduction of the evo meeting is very nice throwback to earlier titles!

So you can now actually choose what engine you want to swap, all the cars listed that already had a swap option, now have 2 available engines!

I'm still waiting for 2jz or ls swap for AE86

 

[MOPARbarrett5]

I swear the copying of the update (I remember the good old days back when games just needed to download and install an update) is taking much longer than usual. For me the update is finished about an hour 15 minutes after it comes out but now it's only 70%. Hopefully my PS4 isn't about to die or something.

Still waiting for a Volvo Wagon swap.

 

[Nakano219]

PP ratings have changed again, at least for Evos (the IX I noted last night at 510 is now 507 in Brand Central).

 

[PuffelPizza]

My PS4 is not done updating yet. The copying (!) is stuck on 68%.

Good luck. Update was nearly immediate on my PS5 with Gb internet access. Hope your PS4 is fine.

 

[bduddy]

The "copying" is going even slower than normal on my PS4, too.

 

[Buckethead75]

Same, it's taking forever!

The weird thing was that system told me I had not enough space for the update, while I had more than 100gb free. I deleted a few games and the download started.

 

[RobertHammer]

inb4 GT7 kills the PS4 hdd - jk

 

[Boxster]

Same here. Took me over an hour to install the update.

 

[Vule]

Some amazing swaps this time, can't wait to try them all

Mazda Roadsters (both) got the 787B, I think one of the Toyota 86s got the SC430 which will all be amazing for 700PP LeMans race, and the new van got the 1000HP LSsomething...

And for the PP changes, I think it only affects SOME 4WD Japanese cars, as far as I can work out when changing through the cars from my garage.

 

[Ande3200]

nobody cared about VR, nobody cares about 8K... and so much things missing in this game, its so sad.

If you really have not tried vr you dont know what you have been missing out on.

Its simply fantastic well integreted inside gt7,

The update dosen’t either look as weak as lost expected either,

First the introduce its first up to date car in a long time,

We get 10 engine swaps
2 new sophy ai tracks
Completly new event type evolution meeting,

So not as bad as most would expect,

But i am sure this is just a smaller update until the bigger Guns will be released with ps5 pro update in november.

Still waiting for a Volvo Wagon swap.

Yeah, me too... Some V8 would be nice to create crazy drift-brick! 😎

 

[ScottPuss20]

I can't believe that the Hiace can get the LS7-BRZ engine. GT really is leaning into the "meme" builds and it's hilarious.

 

[GBalao888]

I can't believe that the Hiace can get the LS7-BRZ engine. GT really is leaning into the "meme" builds and it's hilarious.

Now that some cars can get multiple engine swaps, could you imagine the HiAce getting the Bugatti Chiron engine next?

It will be utter insanity especially for something that has the aerodynamics of a stick of butter.

Bought too just to keep one stock and to pimp out the other one, and to put a fun livery on.
