Use them!

Bought a Wedsport Celica last night and used a tune off of the GT Vault website for it, just to see if it would translate well from GT4 to GT5. To my amazement, the car handled great. Really impressed. Just a heads up to anyone looking for tunes, especially for standard cars. đź‘Ť

Indeed they work well for most of the standard cars. They're even pretty ballpark for the premium cars, just tweak 'em a bit and you're good.
 
This would also be true for the old GT4 garages' tunes, although many of them have been tweaked to the absolute limit of GT4's physics which will result in somewhat off handling (albeit still very good and better than default).
 
Eh.. the only time I've ever used GTVault was back with GT3. I just tried an R33 LM setup and wasn't so happy, I'm probably going to return default and do it my own. However I think many of the older setups are rather promising to get a feel to how these cars should handle using them.
 
Any one have any word on whether GT Vault will update for GT5? I love that site and have some of my old GT3 and GT4 tunes there.
 
The conversions I have found tricky from GTVAULT to GT5 are the brake balance values and the toe values.

Some of the brake balance values in GT3 and GT4 are above GT5's limit of 10. ie. 17/15. With these values, I halved them (or as close as possible. ie. 8/7) but this made me wonder if I should half all of the brake balance values from GTVAULT tunes?

Toe values in GT3 and GT4 were numbers like -1 or -0.5. Apparently the values are reversed in GT5. Does this mean for a tune in GT3 or GT4 the values should convert to GT5 as below?
GT3/GT4 toe value : -1 front / +0.5 back
GT5 toe value : +0.20 front / -0.10 back

P.S. My favourite GTVAULT tuner is FUMES!
