Motor Divisions and Manufactures of Automotive Tuning

[ak101]

Going back to GT1, GT2 and GT4 for expanding GT6 even further with universal specialists (HKS, Blitz etc..) in tuning parts and accessories. Or familiar in-house tuning companies (TRD, AMG etc..) that manufacture unique performance parts only for their dealership.

Good point - I liked how GT4 was laid out in the dealership, where you had their according tuning departments there (I'd love to see NISMO, AMG, SRT, etc) which included particular car models and so forth. Was nice to have all the one-make races there also.

Bring all of that back, in one division, like GT4, with tuners like HKS and Re-Amemiya. But for each manufacturer that have an in-house tuner, like Nissan and Mercedes-Benz, the tuner is a separate part of their dealership, kinda like GT2.

For instance you can't fit M Sport alloys or wings to a Honda Civic or a Ford Escort, there solely for BMW's. On the other hand you can fit BBS or OZ alloys on any car. That's how it should be in my opinion.

Exactly. And separate brands for each (or most) components, like a wheels shop separated into each brand, suspension, engine modifications, and other parts treated the same way. So we have Eibach, Ohlins, Cusco etc. for suspension, Bridgestone, Goodyear, Yokohama etc. for tires and such. And each could have different performance. Sounds too complicated, for sure.

It does sound a bit complicated however I would like to see this kind of thing in future Gran Turismo titles.
