Hello! I have a new update on Gran Turismo 5 Evolution.

I have been working on expanding the racing modification feature, and the results are as follows: 290 cars can now be racing modified with 110 unique outcomes (the discrepancy comes from all the dupes the game has). This feature was very underutilised in the vanilla game, with only 17 cars being racing moddable.

The selection of racing mods is limited because cars in the Premium Dealership have their prices tied to the racing modification, and having racing mods for the same price as the car in the dealership makes no sense. The new racing modifications have been priced competitively and according to how much the base car changes.

With the big increase in cars that support this feature, I felt the need to indicate to the player which cars can be race modded or not, and I did that through the cars' Descriptions. If a car can be racing modded, its description will say "This car has a racing modification." in whatever language you're playing:

Preview images for the new RMs were made by @r3n4.

On the subject of credits, I have added credits for the mod, alongside the GT5 Master Mod credits:

I have also updated some copyright notices to 2026:

The mod will release in 2026, and I'm still working on it and polishing the experience to guarantee it works without issues from the very start. Thank you for the interest shown in Gran Turismo 5 Evolution.

Amazing work so far. Quick question, will the added racing modifications replace the actual car with the racing variant, or just replace the car body to that of the racing variant, leaving it with the settings and bought parts you had installed prior?

so you have a reference for the actual specifications of the cars
What is this for/in relation to?

Thank you! It completely replaces the car with the racing variant, including all the parts that come by default in the race car.

I believe the car specs post is to help me improve the car specs as I mentioned that as part of the mod. I've already made the changes I wanted but it's always nice to have more resources.

Fair enough, it just seems quite random at first so it threw me :lol:
