Gran Turismo 6 Japanese Car Appreciation Thread

[The87Dodge]

In this thread, we will talk about, share info, share pictures, and tune Japanese cars.

 

[Ryk]

If I had to pick any... Autobacs Garaiya...
But I guess the Mazda RX7...
Or the Honda Life Step Van...

Of the list, The NSX is just mid engine enough for me.

 

[Lubeify100]

I would've picked the Nissan GT-R but the Mitsubishi Lancer has always been my pick for rallying since GT2. I also love RX-7s and RX-8s

 

[05XR8]

Aw, no MX-5 and no rotaryNSid go with the GTR outvofvthis group. I tune the '12 R35 with Sport exhaust, stock transmission, SS tyres, springs @ 10kgfm F/R, damper settings compression @8 F/R, everything else as is. Vibrant Red and Chrome Volk CE28N.

Honda Power™ but that Skyline/GT-R (same car) though, tough to beat.

 

[GT5 Level 41]

R34 Skyline GT-R

I just love that boxy nose.

 

[Downhill Dino]

Unfortunately Gran Turismo gave me my love for Skylines. Favorite cars because of these games.

The Honda Life Step Van is one sweet ride. It is too bad hardly anyone tunes it.

Did you know there are 53 Skylines in the game?

 

[sparkytooth]

No LFA, no game.

 

[Downhill Dino]

Yes. I only own 1 R32 and R33 but I've never driven the 33. Still my all-time favorite car.

Best one is the GT-3 Base. Great car. Little pushy, but safe, and fast.

I voted for the 86/BRZ/FR-S, but my real choice is the RX-7.

 

[ALB123]

It's impossible for me to truly vote for anything besides the GT-R. I mean, come on...that car, especially the NISMO edition, is absolutely amazing. However, the BRZ/FRS/86 is arguably my favorite car to use in GT6. I own several, all set up at different PP values, and get so much enjoyment out of driving them. In real life, though, if someone was going to give me any of the cars in this list, I couldn't turn down the GT-R. And the funny thing is, up until about a year ago I really didn't care for the GT-R that much. It's funny how opinions can change so dramatically.

So much of this. The Japanese bias that some find annoying is not an issue to me, because the way GT worked out for me is thus:

1. Early games introduce to me the epic world of Japanese cars.
2. They become my favourite "nationality" of cars, as it were.
3. Game remains biased (and some might argue increasingly so) to Japanese cars.
4. This is a good thing because the developers add more of my favourite cars to the game.

And yes, Skylines are my favourite car too, thanks to GT.

All about the Subaru 360.

 

[MidFieldMaven]

I voted for...

I love Honda engines, specifically the B16A, B16B, B18C, K20A, and F20C.

 

[N0t_L3fty]

Invalid poll, no RX-7. But, you do seem to have bait, now where are those limb lines?

 

[alexnipi]

300HP in 1989. Crazy

 

[jagenigma]

And the Mazda RX-7, RX-8, Mitsubishi 3000GT, Honda S2000...

The 3000GT is the same as the GTO.

 

[JR98]

The 3000GT is the same as the GTO.

Depends on the GTO

 

[jagenigma]

Depends on the GTO

I had mentioned it was the Mitsubishi GTO before the reply.

 

[HBR-Roadhog]

The poll is a bit tainted with no Mazdas and no Honda S2000

Of those listed the Subaru would be my pick but I am very fond of the S2000 the MX5, RX7, RX8 and RX500
