Massive thanks for this. The brake oversteer in road cars has almost made me quit the game altogether. But now I can tune it out of pretty much every car. Seriously, you saved my GT experience. Cheers brother.
I’ve watched this video over and over again. Each time I learn something new due to playing GT7 and encountering issues and then by watching the video again there’s usually something that will help. I still struggle to completely understand tuning. It’s overwhelming by times but videos like yours really help. I’d love a few more videos about suspension and differential in extreme detail. Have different cars and show the best process for trail and error when tuning. How to know what should be changed in order to get the results you’re looking for. I know you pretty much did that but it can get frustrating and overwhelming. Your videos have helped so much. Pls make more
Watching your videos and following your guidelines knocked 4 secs off my race times immediately! More importantly getting the cars to drive consistently allowed me to dramatically improve my driving skills instead of constantly struggling just to keep the car on the track!
you are an absolute legend mate sat down and spent the time to watch this video from start to finish and learnt so much, cheers mate. you have gained my sub.
Thank you so much. Finally a video explaining everything that I’ve been trying to find answers for. I’m just getting into sim racing and I know a little bit about cars but not much. So I could make educated guesses at some of the tuning but now to completely understand what each setting does makes it a lot easier. Thank you so much
And keep making more videos like this. I thought it was great that you actually tested different cars with all the setting options and showing the results of those settings helped me understand more. Do more tests with different cars and different situations like rain for example would be great. Thank you very much
Thx man, i've watched other vids on suspension tuning but this one actually works, I'm able to my cars a lot better now in gt7 and also can you make more vids about tuning rally cars?
While tunning a Plymouth that won't be named, I found that increasing the shock dampers kept the nose from diving and lifting, which in such a relatively heavy car it was another method for controlling the oversteer understeer while navigating complex corners.
So does this mean now we will get an advanced tuning series since the beginner tuning series is over? I’m really excited to see what comes next in place of this 👍
There won't be any more tuning videos - not regarding stuff like suspension, diff etc. I have nothing more to offer there. I may do some videos comparing ECU/Power restrictor, how various parts effect fuel economy and stuff like that.
In most cases nothing. Some cars like the De Tomaso Pantera get downforce added with the widebody but this is extremely rare. For almost all cars, the widebody just allows you to fit wider tyres by fitting aftermarket wheels.
You mentioned people sacrifice power and add weight to reduce PP, yet in the demonstration you reduce the front downforce (which actually increase PP) and did not provide explanation which other parts you sacrifice to compensate this and lower the PP.........
@@fossilfueled27hmm I didn't know that reducing the value of front downforce actually DECREASES the performance point, which is the exact opposite of rear downforce as mentioned in 7:30.. you also did not seem to elaborate on why the car can become twitchy at high speed with high downforce. I know downforce increases exponentially with speed, but couldn't really grasp on the reasoning. Great video nonetheless, it's extremely helpful, so thanks for that.
@@ftj8279 High front downforce can make a car twitchy because the front end is being pushed into the ground too much for the rear to handle. The rear needs to be pushed down more to stabilise the car. Reducing the front downforce will DECREASE PP rating in almost all car, as shown in the video.
@@fossilfueled27 right, I just checked with ChatGPT too. But just like rear downforce, reducing the front downforce will INCREASE top speed right? Why does it lead to a reduction in PP rating?
@@ftj8279 Because the theoretical cornering speed will increase with more front downforce. Not to mention the PP rating only takes into account the top speed of the transmission with default ratios, so that means most cars will have the same theoretical top speed no matter the downforce, according to the PP rating system.
This is the worst game Ive played in a long time when you get into the string races it's frustrating not fun ar alll regret buying this game again it's just frustrating gran turismo 7 sucks waste of money they missed the mark it shouldn't feel exhausting just to get 3rd place
Or you can try to learn it, it was difficult for me when I first picked it up, but now I’m pleasantly surprised with my abilities a couple of months down the line

Got any tips to simplify
Forget, potter, merlin, gandalf and dumbledore. You are the best wizzard!! 👌
I dunno, Gandalf's pretty great.
Excellent work mate. To have these compiled is a good oversight of your channel.

Bro, you literally saved my life, I am a great racer but don’t know how to tune😅, thank you for making this video🥹
What a legend. Now I have an excuse to watch the whole thing yet again lol

Very Thanks. Best GT7 Tuning Video ever

Ty for this, hopefully more people learn from this before hopping on Tokyo and crashing out.
brilliant sir, cant wait for the sambabus
Epic man! Thank you for this
Professional presentation
5 stars Mr. Fossil
Super helpful
Thanks a lot for updating with this... im a new player and badly needed a guide... thanks
Thanks sir for your explanation and the way you do it. ❤
I just want to say, I have no issues with my Porsches, and I love that they put the engine in the wrong place 🙏🏼
8:37 this got me past a point I was having trouble with. 600 pp Porsche race to continue to level up. Thank you.
Very well done my friend.
Great video, very informative and helpful
Amazing work
Good explanations for most, nice job explaining it all. Maybe the few I didn't know much about will help now. Lots of work to do with many cars....

One of the main things that helps the Plymouth Stupidbird is the Increase Body Rigidity option. If you haven't fitted it, I highly recommend it.
Perfect
Where to find s13’s livery at 1:37 and 180sx’s livery 27:10?
Respect 🙂👍
Yes!
Subbed.
So does this mean now we will get an advanced tuning series since the beginner tuning series is over? I’m really excited to see what comes next in place of this 👍

he needs to focus on the sambabus monster tame
its just too beastly
@@fossilfueled27we’d love to see that, it’d be interesting
Any suggestions for the 911 996 gt3?
What do wide body kits do to down force points wise?
In most cases nothing. Some cars like the De Tomaso Pantera get downforce added with the widebody but this is extremely rare. For almost all cars, the widebody just allows you to fit wider tyres by fitting aftermarket wheels.
Why is Jag F Type a boat? lmao
You mentioned people sacrifice power and add weight to reduce PP, yet in the demonstration you reduce the front downforce (which actually increase PP) and did not provide explanation which other parts you sacrifice to compensate this and lower the PP.........
When? In the downforce section of the video, I reduced front downforce, which reduces PP in the majority of cars.
@@fossilfueled27hmm I didn't know that reducing the value of front downforce actually DECREASES the performance point, which is the exact opposite of rear downforce as mentioned in 7:30.. you also did not seem to elaborate on why the car can become twitchy at high speed with high downforce.

Tuning for intermediates next?
It's pretty much the same as tuning for slicks.
