I want liveries first. Then this.
I wouldn't play forza if GT5 had these things.

We should have engine swaps in the next update

Most don't care if the cars look like 8 bit boxes with Tampax on the side. It's all about performance. If they can get the cars to work more like a drag car. That is far more fun then painting a car and coming into a room and saying check out how fast my looks, drag racers will be like show me. Looks mean nothing.
honestly the looks thing is kinda shallow in Motorsports. Get some depth my man.

Engine swaps would offset the balance of the game.
Maybe in an arcade mode it could be fun, but not in an online simulation arena.

dr_slumpA RB27 is just a kitted RB26. Much more power? Not really!
To tune an rb27, you would get more power from the engine because the actual block is a little bit bigger than the 26's, if not power, more stronger engines. They are capable of more horsepower than a rb26 👍

I would love this. As long as the swaps are plausible there should be nothing wrong with it. You would probably see a greater variety of cars online... Even if they may be frankenstein monstrosities.
But it seems like it would be more appropriate to add in GT6 and not just patch it in GT5.

i agree with you if engine swaps are implicated in the game it needs to be realistic and be from the same manufacture
For example: Zr1 in a camaro, camaro ss engine in chevelle and so on

i see alot of ppl are saying no because it wouldnt be realistic but think about it you can put any motor in any car yea you have to do a great amount of frame work and alot of custom **** i personally have a ls1 in my s13 240sx. ive seen big blocks in rx-7s anything is possible i vote yes to swaps.

I also vote yes for motor swap. I don't see why not.

That's in extreme cases. I've done 3 on the same vehicle and only 1 time I had to change the mounts. That was it. The rest was drop in and go. And no they weren't Crate engines.

What engine was it? Hope it isn't the N52 engines on BMWs because I would be soooo jealous of you
Taking a Ford 300 Inline 6 (Biggest straight six ever from the Big 3 American auto makers) to a Ford 351 Windsor (5.8L V8), and then after blowing that up replacing it with the same one but lesser build. These went into a 1985 Ford F250 4x4.

Nice, my friend Jeff (he's 24) has a 96 F150. He made the transmission by himself (5 speed manual), and I think he put in a 351 with a supercharger. It's hard to actually put out more horsepower in a 351 since it is limited by the OBD II. He got that thing for free, it had NOTHING in it. Just a body.

In the new models it does. Our truck doesn't have it. The original 351 had 780 horse until it blew a rod out the top and even then the block is still good. The other one has less at 540hp and 618ft-lb torque last time it was rated. I'm assuming it's slightly less now as that's what it was when it was rebuilt and dropped it. We've got a C6 auto tranny (3 speed) which can handle a great amount of power in it's stock form. Which 351 was it (I'm assuming Windsor) but from for there was also a 351M (351 Modified), and 351C (351 Cleveland) and which some machining there was also another 351C (351 Clevor) which was a combined version of the Cleveland engine and Windsor engine. What they did was put lightly machined Cleveland heads on a Windsor block, effectively created the Boss 351. The same could be done to a 302W (just a 5.0 or 302 from Ford) that made the Boss 302. 351C's could suck in cats and dogs all day because it had amazing intake on it but the exhaust side was a little dead. Cleaning it up would put out mass amounts of power. Windsors and Clevelands were great, Modifieds were ok. Funny because the Clevelands and Modifieds were supposed to replace the Windsor, and the Windsor out lived it's own replacements lol.

How would we know what engine your opponent is running...we can't even tell if someone's broken in or not at the moment. I'm not against the idea but there will be a lot of noobs with a crappy tune with swapped engines racing the same cars with original engines and winning. They'd need to add engine info to the window that pops up showing each players driving options settings for it to work.
