I just got the R-Tuned version out of the UCD and was testing it out (It sounds sick!). Then it came to me - how can GT have this version and not the best version (Z-Tune)? I don't get it.
 
GT's (a japanese game) missing a lot of Super GT (despite being one of the official partners of the competition) that Forza (an american game) got, just saying.

tl;dr: GT5 cars list makes no sense whatsoever.

I was thinking the same thing when I first saw the car list. Obviously PD did the other variations just for number reasons and they were in previous GT games.

The Z-Tune was probably hard to get hold of to model. They might have already chosen enough premium cars to model and left the Z-Tune out to have more variety in premium cars. They might add it in the next GT title.
 
They saw everyone's complaints about having 50+ Skyline's. So blame the whiners. :p

Lol nice. I really should get my R-Tune out, bought it and never drove it, that is the problem with spending sprees!
 
LOL @ SimonK. My issue is that they have so much of them but out of all they left out, it had to be the Z-Tune. I mean that is the best one out of all.
 
There are only 20 z-tune Skylines in the world. I bet the reason why they don't have it in the game is because of that. They are highly collectible. I would bet that Kaz would have a certain respect to not just throw a model together based off of another skyline.
 
Im just confuzed why theres no FXX

Its practically an Enzo body, they would just have to change it a bit
On the Z-Tune

Im guessing PD can't find one to model.
I think some of the rarer ones, like the McLaren F1, were modeled from Jay Leno's collection
They would need to find someone willing to let them take a gajjillion photos of it
 
PD can find plenty of die cast models to model, in fact many standard cars were modelled from die cast models.
 
The Z tune is a strange ommision. Why have so many Skylines but not the best one?
On the FXX posted above, i can see that being include in an update as an Enzo race mod (hopefully it'll say FXX instead of Enzo RM though).

You need to play GT2. :)

And alas i didn't have a gtst when gt2 was out.
Think i had an escort rs turbo then if memory serves. Why is there no rs turbo lol.

Dont have a GTSt now either. I sold it a couple of yrs ago but i had it when GT4 was out & it wasn't in that & thought it might have been included in GT5 but noo the nearest in the R32 but thats only a 2.0 :(


And what is the good reason for there being no gtst chippy? Better be a good 1.
 
Don't most of these factory tuned cars get sold to Tuner shops and special customers(i.e. Nissan executives)? I'm pretty sure the tuner shops tune the cars so they do even resemble the OEM version at all.

That is a possibility, as I believe there was only 18 or 20 made. I'm not sure but I remember the number was really low. But I'm sure PD could schedule some time with Nissan to spec one out.

Anyways I was really in shock when I saw this car didn't make the list. I love the styling of the r34 chassis, so this is naturally one of my favorite cars. The performance for a stock japanese car is off the charts. With all the other skylines it's a shame we didn't get this one.
 
I have the Amuse Carbon R that is better the n Z tune It has 600hp (Before I add the stage 3 turbo to it), all Carbon Fiber 1050 KG its BEASTLY. If someone wants it I am looking for a RZ Supra, we can swap for a day or 2, or I need a formula Gran turismo, we can swap the carbon R for the few days

CD I agree the car list is bananas. In the Toyota dealership (new cars) you can buy the really old and crappy Supra Mk3 but you can't buy the most popular, and by far the best supra ever made the RZ Mk IV, and to top it all off, it only appears Once per massive cycle for used cars it appears on day 120 something, and only once, then you have to wait.There are also no aftermarket GTS- GT RWD R32/R33 skylines.

in GT3,
I could do up a GT R32/ 33 just like the Bathurst touring cars of Skaife, and Seaton. They were beasts 600HP, Gutted R32's/ R33's soooo quick, These were so fast I used to race my frined split screen he would have his R34 GTR 1000HP and he was quick, I would have my R32/33 with 800 ish, down the straight these RWD only ones had so much torque I would fly past him and as I shifted gear, they just squated and took off, to him shaking his head, and me laughing. They are missing as well from GT5, its SAD.

I don´t really think that this has to do with it , we already know that some cars were modeled after die-cast models , also the Z-tune is in other games like grid so why pd didn´t included it .

Other car I would have loved to be in the game is the focus RS , there´s the st and the rs wrc , why they didn´t inlcuded the RS ??

I hope that if there is ever a DLC for this games , those are the cars in it
 
^^ I agree I'm sure with the connections PD have they could have easily gotten access to a Z Tune, sure there are only 20 of them, but I'm guessing that some of the other cars in the game are even rarer such as the 787b etc.

Im pretty sure it was modeled off the one at the Mazda Automobile Museum, so it wasn't that hard to find

What's the difference between the R Tune and the Z Tune.....
Click to expand...

The Z-tune is a nismo special edition limited to only 20 units (they could be less) with 500hp and other upgrades , it is pretty rare and my favorite car by the way

Z Tunes are not hard to find either mate the point I was making is that there are more Z Tunes in the world than 787's, I was just using that as an example.
