My favorite swap by far is the 787 mazda3. Can do the entire race with no pit stops even in rain. I usually finish with 25-30 seconds to spare so I just stop before the line and cross once the 30 minutes are up.
@@Doughtinator yes but the difference is gonna be the suspension tuning yours is definitely more tighter than mine. When I exit corners the tail is a little too happy
Hi Chris. i tried your tune, and you are spot on. A gem! Its sweet-handling and potent as well. A tip: After trying this tune I went to the used car dealership and picked up a couple of Nissan Fairladies. I did an engine swap on one, went and got all the aero and as many of the goodies from the tuning shop as I could. On FM1 I could get 4 laps, 5 if I upshifted or used a more fuel-efficient FM. I think the Nissan is even better than the Alpha! Couldn't believe the handling, so forgiving and yet nimble. I'd like to see how you would tune it. It's now my favourite road car tune for Le Mans (the Alpha is a close second!). Thanks for all your work.
I usually use the R92CP swapped R34 GTR. It can do sub 4 min laps consistently with no issue. I usually do a one stop pitting on lap 4 for tires and fuel. Sometimes it’s so fast that i just do lap 8 anyway because it feels more natural (without rain) also I noticed that the wipers on the R34 in heavy rain conditions doesn’t work ( i don’t know why though)
I dont really get why everybody is so bothered with sub 4 min laptimes if its a fixed time event you know 30 min is 30 min ... i rather have a balanced build and have some fun then making the entire game a dreadfull grind by using OP cars everywere
@@danielstokker i agree with you in some way for a few reasons 1. having close battles with ai 2. discovering a car that fit inside the bop but a op car allow you to 1.improve your lap record 2. have a sense of security that if you messed up the strategy you still recover the lost time because if you come second you lose quite a big portion of your reward money
A less complicated alternative - BMW Z4 Gr.3 with hard and intermediate tires, power output down until you're at 699 (about 96%), fuel setting to 3 to go 4 laps at a time, can adjust fuel down to 2 or 1 depending on fuel available on the second stint. Easy peasy, only one car and tyres to buy. Not as glamorous, but gets it done just the same.
Yes, first 1000 times I ran on 'Hard' difficulty. But, pop it down to 'Easy' and then one can park the car at the finish line at the end of Lap 6... I've used a variety of cars, but settled upon a detuned Audi RD11 Le Man Prototype
I actually enjoy the Tokyo WTC600 race with the 13B swapped Suzuki Cappuccino. The race takes 25min with one pit stop and awards 825,000 per clean win.
If you intend to wallride, I’d recommend the R33 ‘97 with R92CP engine swap for it. It’s easily capable of no-stopping it, making it a 23,5 minute race. The 4WD makes it really user-friendly as well. Put it on Comfort Hards and the PP will take a nosedive, really easy to get it under 600 PP.
I use the Suzuki Escudo that runs like 1150 hp. Very easy money grind, opponents are usually behind by like 2-5 mins depending on the weather. Currently have like 15 mil credits. Lately just using different production cars to see which ones can win that race and makes things not feel too boring.
I use a 997 GT3 for this race, it’s relatively nice on tyres (I run Race Mediums and they will do 5 laps before they start to feel greasy, but usually take a set on Lap 3) and will do 3 laps on fuel. I love the way it drives, it’s so predictable and smooth and I love the turn in that you only get in Porsches!
I just love using the Honda RA272 for this race, if it doesn't rain too much I'm even able to do -7- (edit: even 8 is doable, even with a pit) full laps without pit within just a little over 30minutes (my record is 30:10ish). You just need to save a little fuel, and it's bloody damn fast and absolutely fun to drive!
Mehhh its fun but to easy no matter how much i drive this race and win i still want a challange i even managed to win 700 pp le mans in a swapped samba bus i think thats a accomplishment on another level of its own not many people even attempt that kinda shit 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for the gearing explanation, I had figured out how to set them properly , however I clueless as to why the indicated (in the menu) top speed was so ridiculous.
I use the Fairlady swap for this since you have to worry less. Yes, it's more tedious and less fun, but it does the job, and it's relatively cheap. you pit once around halfway through the race for fuel and new tyres, inters if raining, never go for wets. Fuel mapping 1, and just to avoid crashing, TC 3. You will usually do 7 laps, 8 with no rain.
To start...this video came as recomended...and it was a good recomendation!!! Great work my man!!! Keep it up!!! But let me give my thoughts about this tune: PROS-fast as f...., you can drive it even without traction control even on a controler, on fuel 6 it is still fast as hell, super gripy and very forgiving to drive....but...and it is a big but...!!!!! CONS-Chews tires and fuel like its butter!!!! OPTION- (and try it in le mans to see if im wrong!!!) The bulgary is a better strategy on fuel and tires in that particular race!!!! Cause...like you say in the screen...its a beast...a hell of a monster!!!
This may sound extremely unbelievable , perhaps even eccentric, but my favorite car for Le Mans is Bulgari’s Aluminium VGT! An easy, comfortable, luxurious win with just one stop to refuel! ^^! FC 4 during the first 4 laps and FC1 for the remaining ones.
All these swapped cars and I'm running the M3 Sport Evo.. Much more engaging of a race and still competitive on professional difficulty. If I need more, I run the other E30 with the Suzuki VGT swap. Such a fun chassis to race with...
I use the 2014 redbull jr for this race, I dominate it no sweat because of outlasting all the other cars - for 6 laps, if my manage my fuel, and with intermediates on the entire time, I never have to pit once. I even lapped a bunch of cars one time.
I did the Cappuccino engine swap, stuck on all the upgrades and upped the top speed setting to 350. Well over 200mph on the long straight. Like a missile for three laps on fuel setting six.
This looks like a lot of fun. I use the Aston Martin DP-100 Vision. I get over 4 laps of fuel and similar lap times. End up winning by 3mins. No need for any setup except for a tiny bit of ballast. Great video as usual
I dont even like the handeling of the dp 100 cant adjust a single thing on the suspension it feels very soft and fluffy for a car with that kinda HP driving on pillows at 180 to 200 mph aint my preffered way of doing this race cars with more tuning options just do a way better job on 700 pp certainly custom race suspension would have been a nice option on that vgt but they just wont allow it so other cars easily outclass it in every way
hey Dough the 1.34 a small step for polyphy, a massive quality of life step for us racers, finally some fun and things to mess around with, and finally the Le Mans grind make sense 🏁 this Alfa and try the nissan s15 gr4 with gtr engine 👍 now they (polyphony) has to clean up the single player campaign mess and add proper championships and endurance
LeMans is the best race on gt7 so many cars that can be tuned to 700pp and it gives a good pay out different race conditions every time, its a fun race to drive and can tune fun cars to drive for easy money I still have around 20 cars to drive on it with engine swaps and tunes just wish there were a few more races like this that pay good and fun to drive with the variable weather as Tokyo is boring as batshit.
When going over the tune settings, you skipped the wheels because you said you don’t think it makes a difference. There is a bit of a difference actually :) The rim width and offset can make a difference in handling characteristics. Not sure about the rim diameter; it does affect PP though.
I was excited by the engine swaps coming in, but I do this race for the same winnings in my existing M6 GT3, so until I get all the way through the menus I won't be playing with spending on swaps.
Yep, that's my goto car for this race! Absolutely lovely to drive, even in VR where you get to experience the offcenter steeringwheel 😅, feels awkward at first but you get used to it. So much fun to push this car, breaking out the rear and then catching it in VR with a GT DD wheel really feels amazing, so satisfying!
You can earn the same easy money with a stock Radical on Map 1 until you’ve overtaken everything on lap 1 and map 6 for the rest of the race. Looks more fun in your favourite engine swapped car tho so might try this out thanks.
Yeah but using OP builds is boring AF Balanced 700 pp racing engine swapped streetcars is were its at for me quite easy to build a 700 pp swapped m3 e46 with about 550 hp not OP by any means but youll get along just fine just like you were driving a actual gr4 car ... pfff OP builds yea everybody can do a does do that shit now try a balanced one its harder then you think
@@danielstokker I ran with the R32 GTR. No engine swap needed and not overly op and probably challenging enough since you'll need the pits every 2 laps at best even with optimal fuel management. At least at the start. Just under 500hp.
Question - what would you recommend as good practice for switching to TCS 0 AND separately for switching to MT? The struggle is real so far and the curve seems steep right now. Any advice will be extremely helpful and appreciated. Cheers!
@aaronyates3923 I'm playing on a crappy GT Lite chair with a Thrustmaster t300rs alcantara on PS5. My troubles really begin with quick succession turns or predictions. Sometimes, I know it's my lines too. I practice and play about every other day or so but can usually never get the 2m from the weekly races. 0 TCS seems impossible because of how sensitive the steering gets along with getting on throttle too much too fast I assume.
I think TCS 2 is safe and you don’t really lose too much time. Anything more starts to limit throttle too much. You can be faster without. But if you soon. You’re not faster. Manual gears you can gain more with. Especially with this car and fuel saving. To learn. I’d keep TCS on 1 or 2 and then experiment with manual gears 👍🏻
@@JaxWastdLife loool I play on a crappy dualsense on a ps5 with AT and 0 TCS, I got everysingle gold dude. And just play 2h a day. The name of that is SKILL. Even the 2 nordschleife golds I got, with much effort but was possible dude.
@@JaxWastdLife takes practice, try having a decent time trial session with car of your choice on a track that you want to learn/master (anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour) and mess with counter-steering for corrections or try not to be immediate on throttle for corner exits. Also adjust TC slowly as you go through the laps. Can either start with automatic transmission first or manual transmission, that is up to you on how comfortable you want to begin the session.
Wow! I was not aware that you could swap engines on GT7, im doing the money grinding on Le Mans, and i like to use different cars every time, so far i use the Alpine VGT and the BAC (both low fuel consumers and good engine power) i love this Alfa Romeo car it was one of the first cars i used in GT Sport back in the days, i will try to experiment engine swaps with different cars, only works with road cars right? By the way, i just found your channel, it is really cool. Have a good day :) Greetings from Argentina.
@@Doughtinator I do not get it..i just did the exact same engine swap and tunning like you and the car does not have the same performance, im always in the last place
Great swap, thx! But your setup is way too understerring: I set rear suspension stiffer (springs and dumpers, like 4 in front 8 in rear for bars, then 28 afrot, 38 back, then 36front 46 rear, then springs2,74 front and 3,74 rear.) In this way the car is much responsive on the steering, no understaring at all, you just to be carefull when you want to open the trottle 0 to 100%. also areodinamyc is no sens eput more then 250 on rear
Nice, gonna have to try this one out , great pit strategy 👍.🏁 Quick question with your wheel, being you got the G29 aswell, dose it have a little side to side movement? (Wobble the slightest left and right , from wheel twords base. Hard to explain 🤔 if you're looking at wheel it would be the back of it twords base , nothing up and down though,so I don't think it's the shaft. Sorry for the long question not pertaining to the video 😅
Appreciate it , literally the slightest wobble never noticed before till the other day , might have been there from the start. I don't feel as if I use a lot of pressure either.
Looks awesome, love the livery. Honestly though this race is very easy. It can be won with a Mercedes S Barker Tourer '29. Almost any car tuned to 700pp can fairly easy dominate if you have a set of wet/intermediate tyres handy.
@@Doughtinator High social standards and expensive living costs are the culprits of Tokyo's otherwise monotone black/white atmosphere sort of. Other than that Japan is a lovely country.
Redbull is the best for this period. Swap this that, nothing use the redbull jr and you woll finish before 30 min, can stop by like and wait for time to laps. Yiu will have a 2+ minutes head time
Bro you can race! I be struggling my ass off with those pit races. You think you could drop a video about pit strategy and how to use the weather radar?
Thanks man. I covered weather radar a bit in this video. th-cam.com/video/pzhjlW5LA2k/w-d-xo.html The radar has changed a bit since I made this video but the principles still exist. Hope it helps man 👍🏻
weather is pretty random with the 30 minutes of Le Mans race. most of the times you'll get rain by your 3rd or 4th lap and sometimes you'll get no rain/light drizzle i typically pit in for fuel by lap 4 using the Genesis X Gr.3 car on fuel map 4 and finish with 1-2 minutes to spare at the end of lap 7
I’m sorry but the cars not even close to being the best car for that track. The best car for that track that I found so far is the alpine VGT race and it just dominates on that track. Very easy to win. Very stable around corners gas for laps tires last a long time. Usually when I switch to rain tires I don’t have to switch back. I still dominate that track. Anyways great video. Nice driving
makes me laff that top 5 cars get away to the same point on track to catch them up no matter what car you use 🤔 ill give it a go but prefer the Audi quattro sport
Mmmmh fuel map 6 ? Whats that? I use all of your Settings in the vid. You complete 3 rounds with your tank . If get warning at the end of first round 0,7 Tank xD

How the E-Sporting Events are going well, 🤞
Probably should have covered that. I focussed on the build. LeMans WTC700 earns 825,000 credits. This build can do it in exactly 30 mins. So 1,650,000 per hour.
You call it playful but i call it massively unbalanced. The arse end tries to fly out on near every corner. I honestly didn’t like this car. Your a good driver and the arse is flying out in this video. Redbull junior is much slower but better brakes and cornering so i’ll stick with that. Still win by about 2 laps. I actually did a quicker lap with my engine swapped De Tomaso Pantera and it was infinitely easier to drive.
Wtf are saying? A road car in a race car, the race car in a road, race car, the car race in a road of race cars who don't race in a road car....🙄🥶🤯🤯😵💫
I actually use streetcars in 700 pp most of the time my swapped m3 e46 and rx8 take the crown ive build them to kinda fit within the specs of gr4 meaning i dont run them overpowered they all run about 550 hp an weigh about 1350 kg or heavier you could make these cars run the 700 pp faster with even more hp but i enjoy a "balanced" build way more then a tune thats just there to grind the event out keeps racing fun and restraining a car with a swap to 700 pp and come out with a balanced gr4 build isnt always easy im just that guy that messes around a lot with tunes tho i will admit if your going for speed aloneand dont care if its a grind or not go with a higher hp build for 700 pp
@@Doughtinator i have tried this build now made my own tune for it quite usefull on 700pp gr4 but it clearly lacks the downforce to run in any gr3 races they really need to fix the downforce settings on some cars in my opinion some models are straightup missing front wings and stuff or at least the option to adjust it

You can earn the same easy money with a stock Radical on Map 1 until you’ve overtaken everything on lap 1 and map 6 for the rest of the race. Looks more fun in your favourite engine swapped car tho so might try this out thanks.
Very true. A lot of cars work well here. But this build us super fun and sounds superb 👍🏻👍🏻
Yeah but using OP builds is boring AF Balanced 700 pp racing engine swapped streetcars is were its at for me quite easy to build a 700 pp swapped m3 e46 with about 550 hp not OP by any means but youll get along just fine just like you were driving a actual gr4 car ... pfff OP builds yea everybody can do a does do that shit now try a balanced one its harder then you think
@@danielstokker I ran with the R32 GTR. No engine swap needed and not overly op and probably challenging enough since you'll need the pits every 2 laps at best even with optimal fuel management. At least at the start. Just under 500hp.
I use Chevrolet Corvette C7 and I don't swipe the engine but manage to open huge gap like that and the weather also help.😂
Nice! 👍🏻👍🏻
Question - what would you recommend as good practice for switching to TCS 0 AND separately for switching to MT? The struggle is real so far and the curve seems steep right now. Any advice will be extremely helpful and appreciated. Cheers!
I don’t know what you’re playing on but I use my right joystick for shifting. Up Is gear down and down is gear up. TCS 0 is just practice
@aaronyates3923 I'm playing on a crappy GT Lite chair with a Thrustmaster t300rs alcantara on PS5. My troubles really begin with quick succession turns or predictions. Sometimes, I know it's my lines too. I practice and play about every other day or so but can usually never get the 2m from the weekly races. 0 TCS seems impossible because of how sensitive the steering gets along with getting on throttle too much too fast I assume.
I think TCS 2 is safe and you don’t really lose too much time. Anything more starts to limit throttle too much.
You can be faster without. But if you soon. You’re not faster.
Manual gears you can gain more with. Especially with this car and fuel saving. To learn. I’d keep TCS on 1 or 2 and then experiment with manual gears 👍🏻
@@JaxWastdLife loool
I play on a crappy dualsense on a ps5 with AT and 0 TCS, I got everysingle gold dude. And just play 2h a day. The name of that is SKILL. Even the 2 nordschleife golds I got, with much effort but was possible dude.
@@JaxWastdLife takes practice, try having a decent time trial session with car of your choice on a track that you want to learn/master (anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour) and mess with counter-steering for corrections or try not to be immediate on throttle for corner exits.
Also adjust TC slowly as you go through the laps. Can either start with automatic transmission first or manual transmission, that is up to you on how comfortable you want to begin the session.
Great build! Have to give it a try.
Let us know how you get on 👍🏻👍🏻
Wow! I was not aware that you could swap engines on GT7, im doing the money grinding on Le Mans, and i like to use different cars every time, so far i use the Alpine VGT and the BAC (both low fuel consumers and good engine power) i love this Alfa Romeo car it was one of the first cars i used in GT Sport back in the days, i will try to experiment engine swaps with different cars, only works with road cars right? By the way, i just found your channel, it is really cool. Have a good day :) Greetings from Argentina.
Engine swaps are great! You need to be collector level 50 👍🏻
@@Doughtinator I do not get it..i just did the exact same engine swap and tunning like you and the car does not have the same performance, im always in the last place
Great swap, thx! But your setup is way too understerring: I set rear suspension stiffer (springs and dumpers, like 4 in front 8 in rear for bars, then 28 afrot, 38 back, then 36front 46 rear, then springs2,74 front and 3,74 rear.) In this way the car is much responsive on the steering, no understaring at all, you just to be carefull when you want to open the trottle 0 to 100%. also areodinamyc is no sens eput more then 250 on rear
Thanks for the feedback man. Always nice to see 👍🏻👍🏻
My best laps are 4m 4sec . Im far from expert but can win easy LeMans with gr 4 regular cars. Its all about stratégie. No need for those crazy builds
Solid lap time man 👍🏻👍🏻
Nice, gonna have to try this one out , great pit strategy 👍.🏁 Quick question with your wheel, being you got the G29 aswell, dose it have a little side to side movement? (Wobble the slightest left and right , from wheel twords base. Hard to explain 🤔 if you're looking at wheel it would be the back of it twords base , nothing up and down though,so I don't think it's the shaft. Sorry for the long question not pertaining to the video 😅
I'll take another look at mine when I get home, I can't recall seeing what you're describing though
Appreciate it , literally the slightest wobble never noticed before till the other day , might have been there from the start. I don't feel as if I use a lot of pressure either.
Looks awesome, love the livery. Honestly though this race is very easy. It can be won with a Mercedes S Barker Tourer '29. Almost any car tuned to 700pp can fairly easy dominate if you have a set of wet/intermediate tyres handy.
Yeah I think that’s what I like about this race. It works for a wide range of cars 👍🏻
@@Doughtinator it does! Hell of a lot nicer than Tokyo! That race makes me violently depressed.
Yeah Tokyo is quite a bleak place isn’t it 😳🤣
@@Doughtinator High social standards and expensive living costs are the culprits of Tokyo's otherwise monotone black/white atmosphere sort of. Other than that Japan is a lovely country.
Did it in a samba bus it gets exiting again when you pick a very old car 🤣💨💨
Redbull is the best for this period. Swap this that, nothing use the redbull jr and you woll finish before 30 min, can stop by like and wait for time to laps. Yiu will have a 2+ minutes head time
Yeah that car is brilliant. This build is more just to bring some variety to the grind 👍🏻
Finding a car good enough to win the big paying events isn't the problem. Having to constantly do the same 2 or 3 events is the problem.
Yeah man. I get you.
It’s just trying to add variety to cars as PD aren’t helping us with variety of track. 👍🏻
@@Doughtinator yea I guess. A nice new build can add a little bit of variety
Tried this swap today - this thing is a little rocket.
Great engine sound as well.
Yeah man. Sounds superb 👍🏻👍🏻
Bro you can race! I be struggling my ass off with those pit races. You think you could drop a video about pit strategy and how to use the weather radar?
Thanks man. I covered weather radar a bit in this video. th-cam.com/video/pzhjlW5LA2k/w-d-xo.html
The radar has changed a bit since I made this video but the principles still exist. Hope it helps man 👍🏻
I just finished watching it. Thanks my guy!
weather is pretty random with the 30 minutes of Le Mans race. most of the times you'll get rain by your 3rd or 4th lap and sometimes you'll get no rain/light drizzle
i typically pit in for fuel by lap 4 using the Genesis X Gr.3 car on fuel map 4 and finish with 1-2 minutes to spare at the end of lap 7
What about The Porsche 917 Living Legend? I've yet to find a better car for Le Mans money grind.
I haven’t tried it but I’ve heard good things about it 👍🏻👍🏻
The X-BOW is pretty good for this race too.
Yeah the X-Bow is fun to drive too 👍🏻
If the weather is fine, I try it as challenge to drive 8 laps in that race. Not necessary, but why not to push to your limit
Yeah man. Keep pushing. I like it 👍🏻👍🏻
I used the ruf ctr3, the huayra or the aventador. You might have to refuel every 2 laps but even then the bots dont have any chances
Yeah lots of great options for WTC700 LeMans 👍🏻
Using the GT86 group B is much more fun..... only 1 pit stop at la 4 just in time to decide what tyres you need 😂
Yeah man. It’s still one of my favourite builds 👍🏻👍🏻
Where did you get the livery ? I cant seem to find it in the showcase
I made it myself. I really should share it. When I’m next on my PlayStation I’ll share it 👍🏻
@@Doughtinator Sweet. Thank you.
I use the alfa 155 touring car with mid turbo it's so easy to win 😁
Yeah that 155 is a great car 👍🏻👍🏻
I’ve been using my c4 zr1 vette for this race I have to refuel every lap lmao but it’s so fast it doesn’t matter
Nice!!! 👍🏻👍🏻
It doesn't tune to 600 pp I tried. I'll give 700pp a go
What level is necessary for this engine swap? I am currently only at level 22
Thanks
You need to be collector level 50 for engine swaps. Play through the menu books and you’ll get there pretty quickly 👍🏻
I’m sorry but the cars not even close to being the best car for that track. The best car for that track that I found so far is the alpine VGT race and it just dominates on that track. Very easy to win. Very stable around corners gas for laps tires last a long time. Usually when I switch to rain tires I don’t have to switch back. I still dominate that track. Anyways great video. Nice driving
Because the race is time limited. There are loads of best cars for this race. Main thing is just to have a fun car to drive 👍🏻
YOU ARE THE GREATEST
My race time is just like yours I amways whait for 30m to pass BUT i am laying down and chill with my joystick
Perfect 👍🏻
how do u buy a Suzuki engine for this car? i don't understand.....
If you are collector level 50 some cars have engine swaps available. I made a full video on it 👍🏻
thx bud. I am at 47 or 48.......i think
You’ll get there pretty quickly 👍🏻👍🏻
i just swapped my alfa Romeo engine with the Ferrari. it is crazy fast.
Subbed 😊
Thanks man 👍🏻👍🏻
Where do you get the car from and what track is it
From brand central and this is LeMans WTC700 event.
My setup for the 787b annihilates Le Mans I get 4 laps at fuel map 1 and lap times of 3:54 weather permitting
787B is great 👍🏻
Windsor Cleveland engine in a Gr.3 Mustang
Does this build still works for 1.35?
Yes I think so 👍🏻
makes me laff that top 5 cars get away to the same point on track to catch them up no matter what car you use 🤔 ill give it a go but prefer the Audi quattro sport
Yeah a lot of builds can run similar times. But the variety is fun 👍🏻
@@Doughtinator I was meaning the Ai cars, if you pass first few that fast you should be passing again by lap 4-5 😂
Ah I see 👍🏻
This looks like something i need to jump on
It’s a super fun build. Awesome in the dry. A little tricky in the wet but a proper drivers car 👍🏻👍🏻
yep this works ... you kinda forget time and wanna go again
Fuel is over after 1,7 rounds........ if you use automatic and Controller...........
Even with fuel map 6?
Mmmmh fuel map 6 ? Whats that? I use all of your Settings in the vid. You complete 3 rounds with your tank . If get warning at the end of first round 0,7 Tank xD
@@lutschitv9958 if you press left or right on d pad until you get to the green dial in the bottom right if your screen. Then use up/down to change this to 6 while driving. 👍🏻
Thanks i'll try it ;)
which map/race is for?
This is LeMans WTC800 👍🏻
I could not find the livery, what is it called
It’s not shared yet. When I get back on my PlayStation I’ll share it 👍🏻
How do you engine swap?
i did this with the 4C , not the gr3. i swapped the engine with a Ferrari
The Ferrari engine is superb 👍🏻
@@Doughtinator big time
What car and motor swap
It’s all covered in the vid. Alfa 4C Gr3 Road Car. Suzuki Gr3 VGT engine. 👍🏻
I'm not sure if this is the race road car the road race car or the road race road car
Ok so what car is this?
It’s the Alfa Romeo 4C Gr3 Road Version
Mazda rx7 best of the best
SLS AMG can do 4 laps with fuel
Interesting. I’ll take a look 👍🏻👍🏻
@@Doughtinator yes and fuel map 6, easy settings
I will build this var and see if i r van neeter my Audi S1 Gr.B (think pp it's 699.90ppvamd rally GT86 700ppcand it about thr same tun as th GT86 Group 4 car, topp speed 203/4.
The rally builds are fun 👍🏻
@@Doughtinator working on a 4c tune myself now. I need a little something I haven't gotten just Right. I did the Gt68/FRS Limited swap but for now I want to keep the motor "stock" then I work the bolt on before going for amy boost but I am thinking I'm NA form with NOS could be the better option. How the E-Sporting Events are going well, 🤞
I use the GT 40 2006 For this only have to pit once
Awesome. Thanks for the suggestion 👍🏻
Guess I missed the part where you get over a billion credits in an hour.
Probably should have covered that. I focussed on the build.
LeMans WTC700 earns 825,000 credits. This build can do it in exactly 30 mins. So 1,650,000 per hour.
You failed to mention that you have to have a lvl 50 collector so you can do the engine swap. Just wasted money buying the car
Oh man sorry. I did cover it in my engine swaps guide be didn’t say in this vid.
You call it playful but i call it massively unbalanced. The arse end tries to fly out on near every corner. I honestly didn’t like this car. Your a good driver and the arse is flying out in this video. Redbull junior is much slower but better brakes and cornering so i’ll stick with that. Still win by about 2 laps. I actually did a quicker lap with my engine swapped De Tomaso Pantera and it was infinitely easier to drive.
Yeah I hear you man. A lot of the road cars do very much oversteer in the brakes. 👍🏻
Does Method Work?
Like deployed 👍
😎🎙🏎✅️
Thanks Julian 👍🏻👍🏻
Sweet spot is 10500 rpm
Nice. Great info 👍🏻👍🏻
got 4:11 on first time out
nice! solid first time that is
Ek9 k20 for me
just about to give this car a run out
No challenge though
True. Sardegna is a good one as you can earn more by being faster 👍🏻
Wtf are saying? A road car in a race car, the race car in a road, race car, the car race in a road of race cars who don't race in a road car....🙄🥶🤯🤯😵💫
I just got stupider re watching it it's a race car road car race car road car
🤣🤣
first comment 😁
Yeah buddy 👍🏻👍🏻
@@Doughtinator Great build as always keep up the content 🙏🏼
Thanks man. Really appreciate your support 👍🏻👍🏻
To much
I actually use streetcars in 700 pp most of the time my swapped m3 e46 and rx8 take the crown ive build them to kinda fit within the specs of gr4 meaning i dont run them overpowered they all run about 550 hp an weigh about 1350 kg or heavier you could make these cars run the 700 pp faster with even more hp but i enjoy a "balanced" build way more then a tune thats just there to grind the event out keeps racing fun and restraining a car with a swap to 700 pp and come out with a balanced gr4 build isnt always easy im just that guy that messes around a lot with tunes tho i will admit if your going for speed aloneand dont care if its a grind or not go with a higher hp build for 700 pp
Yeah the road cars are fun. But they’ve often got terrible fuel mileage which is frustrating.
@@Doughtinator thats why i use the ones that have racing engine swaps
Yeah. Race engines into road cars is huge 👍🏻👍🏻
@@Doughtinator i have tried this build now made my own tune for it quite usefull on 700pp gr4 but it clearly lacks the downforce to run in any gr3 races they really need to fix the downforce settings on some cars in my opinion some models are straightup missing front wings and stuff or at least the option to adjust it
Yeah agreed. It should generate more front downforce that it does 👍🏻
