And now for a moderately modified Ford Mustang GT, which includes a lot of parts involving the words 'Sport' in it. Sport Exhaust, Sport Intake, Sport Manifold, Sport Converter, Sport ECU, Sport Suspension, Sport Tyres...should have Sport in the title itself! :crazy:

But Sport is not nearly enough all of the time. So, as a nod to the colour name of this Mustang, we called it the Sonic Mustang. Granted, not as sonic as a full mod, but sonic nonetheless. Very good tune if you don't wanna waste money, IMO. :)

Now here is another 1000hp legend, not as well remembered as the ACR but still a popular choice - the regular convertible SRT10.

While it has been reduced to a standard this maxed out form of the Viper still reaches a remarkable 1004hp, which matches its Premium Coupe counterpart virtually and gives it a great status in dragging. This itself is a performance tune, with great acceleration to begin with then a long final gear to maximise possible top speed. So, if you want your Viper as a convertible, take this one.

While this SC300 may look drift tuned, it is not a drift tune as such. It is more of a tune meant to replicate the stock state of the drift machines in this game - Comfort Soft tyres to begin with, a relatively undriftely state and the uncanny ability to not wheelspin despite their tyre compound.

Of course, with extra parts, this SC300 would really make a more potent drift machine for real. However, I'm not a drifter myself, so this can suffice. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Lexus ZedTunes drifter-but-not-a-drifter SC300. :)

Hmmm……??? Really? My Viper is just passing 22,000 miles and it only has 1000hp…(or 999, depending on which screen you see) No wonder it's only a bit fast in its drag tuned format…4 horses are missing!
 
NascarManiaco99
Is this ^^ a cousin of this ?

Uh...no, that's the merely 800ish hp SL55, this is a full bore 1000s SL600. :)

Probably engine wear. I refreshed the engine on the one I bought from the UCD straight away.
 
C-ZETA, thanks for all the time and effort you put in those tunes. I tried a lot of them and loved them all.

But in a way you make me hate you because i want that AMG 190 so bad but it never turns up in the used car dealership. ;) All in good fun, keep up the good work.

Thanks for the compliment. I do know that pain though - spent 10 hours over last night and this morning searching for an FTO Super Touring Car...but trust me when I say it was worth those ten hours. :drool: The 190 E is a slightly more specialized tune given the little 155mph gearing I gave it, might go ahead and find some more sensible gearing for it for genuine racing.

I've also accumulated very many cars and modified them up before this time and will be releasing some of them eventually. I also will now be taking requests from now on - in exchange for a review of any one of my cars however. I won't start taking them in until I release my next batch, but you can review and submit them regardless. Now, go, boys ;)

*coughcough* I've done one already, so can I get a request tune? :dopey: I WANNA AMUSE S2000 GT1 TURBO!!! :D

Problem?

Actually, I was releasing a tune for it to begin with. Just not as you'd expect it.
 
Do you like it now, though? Is it still 'hateful' in your eyes or is it better or at least, not crap?

Well, there are a few faults that are still present, such as the looks and the 7-speed and the turbo but the stats are far more normal now. :)

Also, as a note, the original Honda S2000 LM Race Car from GT3 had 610bhp, the same as the S2K Turbo, but without a turbo. So clearly Amuse are just copying them. Except the top turbo, on said S2000 LM, gave it 900 bhp. Along with many of the other great LMs - FTO and Altezza had similar properties as well back then.
 
Update: The OP has now been updated and now has underneath the banners, the original car models, and the tune's stats. I did this so I could let mobile users be able to access the tunes quickly like is normally available on the main GTP. Use away, mobile users. ;)

The 86 GT is a boring car to begin with. The speed is alright but the handling could rock you to sleep, with the level of boredom it gives.

But with this, not only is the 86 now more powerful but does have at least some liveliness in the handling now. Plus the new Sports Exhaust is quite meaty to me. You'll have to use the bad chase cam to get the best from it though.

And watch out for the speed. Close-ratio transmissions on this thing mean you should only really use this thing for tight and twisty tracks, else you'll be hitting the limiter a lot. But really, this does make it quite worthy and close to the average 276hp Japanese car, like we did with the Altezza RS200 before. Enjoy.

If you like a full mod 458 tune then you will be gravely disappointed by this. Because what this is meant to replicate is this year's Super GT300 runner up - the Ferrari 458 JimGainer, having finished its debut year with a serious championship challenge.

The similarity in looks to the real thing is remarkable - take away the livery of the real one and these two would look so similar you could actually recreate real life shots with the in-game version.

Oh, and by the way, avoid 7th. It's not meant to be used. The real thing doesn't have it anyway...

And now for the real Super GT300 champion of this year. Except not really, because it isn't a race version. It's just a Z4 M modified like it, but it's the best I really could do...Kaz, put more Super GTs in please. :)

This is the Hatsune Miku Goodsmile BMW Z4, converted to road form. It is a bit heavier than its real life counterpart but that's a GT5 problem, not a statistics problem. Actually, it's sort of both, but w/e.

With quick gearing in places, this Z4 is rapid. The handling is also slick, and you won't be getting oversteer any time soon. If you want something German that you can handle, here is your car.

Insert your own naming pun here. :P

Anyway, this California is not anything really special, when you look at the parts. It's just a slightly modified up, looked up version of the stock car. Yet despite this, it still makes for a speedy thing. With a bit of ability it would be excellent for the 550PP field. I recommend it, even if it may not be the most extreme tune in the world.

And it is cheap too, so there you go. :sly:

Unfortunately, our previous Mini Cooper has had its seasonal removed, so now it's only good for 450PP racing. And I don't know if it'll be much cop there. It's not the most powerful car in the world, after all...

But anyway, here is a less powerful version that might provide something along the lines of what JCW would produce if this was still being sold. Only more powerful I would presume. Despite the low HP you can see there has been quite a lot of modification, and all without a turbo too.

So, if you want a joy ride, get this to blow your bloody doors off. And don't forget the first one too. ;)

Next up, the Mini Marcos GT. One of the oddest cars to begin with, as with all classic British cars...

This has been given a good dosage of upgrades, and now as a result is quite a joyful car to drive. Mind you, it was that even before with very little power...but now at least you can go much faster. ;)
 
Here you go. Be careful though…it's one grumpy old man, this car.

Alright, done advertising, I'm out. :D


not to wanna hi-jack someone else his thread , but i can't help myself ...

Onboy that is one ugly 🤬 piece of :censored:car
A person would be ashamed to be on the same motorway as that car let alone drive in it . ( this comment is on the looks of the car not on the driving abilaties )


Again appolagies for the post but seriously you can't say i am wrong :D

The Ginetta G4, my Oddball of the Year, and rightfully so. What other car like this could possibly manage 600PP? :lol:

I had heard before from a fellow tuner that the G4 was impossible to tune properly and was bad to drive. Thing is, I tried it stock and it really wasn't bad - steering was a bit off and understeery but that was that. This on the other hand is a very slidey tune that gives off very controllable slides, and I guarantee you will love it for that. Enjoy your overly PP'd ride. :lol:
