GT7 Mazda RX7 Engine Swap (787B) 700PP Tune! Updated for 1.31

[@Voss44]

**Updated for 1.31** Some minor changes - tuned actually got buffed!: - Front downforce moves to 111 / rear downforce 330 - ECU output changes to 87% - Power Restrictor 85% - Body Height Rear now 129 - Ballast +102 at +50

[@Lava-qb1pc]

what do you mean with the ballast? what should i adjust it to

[@r.s.f.stettler6718]

it's at 709.03 with this setup EDIT: nevermind i think it's because i have a level 4 weight reduction, i found a different setup where i followed your original tune but then set the power restrictor to 86 and ballast to 92, managed to do a lap in 4min 8secs, although other could go way faster since i'm a pretty bad driver

[@jacobbeattie650]

Body height rear was already 129 in your original settings

[@paulsurgenor5759]

Thanks Voss. Works well for me so far Enjoying your hard work 💪🏼

[@Q8nismo]

Wow 🤩 how sweet to run a 787B engine. Got RX7 swapped and now this tune!! Headphones 🎧 + Volume Max I don’t care if wins or loose lol 😂 Thanks buddy ✌️😍

[@Voss44]

The engine is awesome. Totally agree. But it’s a beast on this race so unless you get hung out in rain you should get a win!

[@KamperAssassin]

Finally an actual usable race tune for this beast not just another drag tune troll lol, Awesome thank you so much.

[@lee2thea863]

Just tried this out and it drove like a dream! I might just start using this instead of the Red Bull Junior at this rate. Nice work!

[@IanJamesWs]

I gotta say I've watched most of your videos. I still find it hard to believe you don't have more subs

[@Voss44]

Working on it! 😂

[@kenleung4778]

Great video, we need more engine swap video. Keep it up.

[@mikenike1453]

these videos seem like they come from a channel with millions of subscribers. well done sir.

[@nikbear]

This is the tune I have been waiting for! Thank you 👍🏁

[@TheTrueOne15]

I’ve been doing the same thing but for sardena. It’s been fun working on cars now that we have the engine glitch going. Currently working on a tune on my LT swapped Miata

[@Voss44]

Nice! That thing is a beast, I messed with it quickly. Powerful for sure, seems hard to tame!

[@flameburstgt6503]

My tune is similar to a GR.4 car, high downforce so that it’s balanced for all tracks, also lower to the ground for more stability. Also when I first tried the tune, the gearing was too long so I had to adjust it. The 700pp/GR.4 setup was the first thing I thought of doing to the rx7 after I swapped the engine

[@Voss44]

I'll check it out. Yeah the gearing is super long for Le Mans specifically but good feedback on the adjustments.

[@svinozillashow]

I tried your tune and liked it. On Fuel Map 1 and with TCS to 0 the raw power and sound and the car over all is a joy to drive. Somehow the game let me pack a bit more horsepower under 600PP, won't complain about that. Also I swapped IM tires at the end of the testing run and the rain was a lot shorter than I expected so I had some extra fun destroying those tires in final 2 laps haha

[@theillegalf411]

I do it with Wet tires 699.90 pp with 850bhp usually I drift around while they have been gaped 2 laps 😂 keep up the Good work nice tune Bud 👍🏼

[@dvat03]

Amazing one as usual! With the engine swaps, this tuning was the one I wanted the most, had a blast with it, thanks!

[@Voss44]

Glad you enjoyed it! Yeah thing is amazing!

[@frgazar24]

Now that is a good tune! Thanks man. You got a sub👍

[@diamondman12]

Thanks so much for this tune, the engine swap is so good but the tune takes it to another level. I'm hoping you have more rotary tunes in the pipework after this one, they're all so flexible but really need a good tune with the 787b engine specifically

[@Voss44]

Yeah I need to get myself another engine. But as soon as I can I'll knock out another tune.

[@ganso51]

Thanks for your work mate. Great job! Cheers from Spain

[@bjrntoregraadal1913]

I copy your settings to the new rx8 787b swap. Slight changes with a 6 speed and i like running it with turbo. 520hp, little less weight and 6 speed. I love it

[@Voss44]

Man you're lucky to have that swap! Also glad that worked! I should actually handle better than the RX7. I bet that thing hauls!

[@j.marston]

You just gave me a reason to play the game again. Cheers mate.

[@MrPottsTeaching]

Your getting tha Vomit Green Brakes on your car too. Ewwe they got to fix that its such an eye sore lmao hahah ;D

[@jamesatkinson5090]

Great Engine Swap build but it took me until 2nd lap to catch the leading pack (Top 3)? Don’t know if I did something wrong from changing my set up or driving manual transmission on my standard controller or could try to save up for the Older spec Rx7 engine swap build

[@svinozillashow]

Great job! Also watched your tuning lessons.

[@darrengarlick987]

Hi great video Can you tell me which areo you used and did you widen the car? change wheels ect

[@Voss44]

Type B front/side/rear aero. I didn't widebody this car, but the wheels are BBS FS. Widened and upsized to 18".

[@vanhelzer22]

Fantastic intro!

Hey mate, does this build still work with the current version?

[@AnthonyRamirezX]

Le mans is so easy to beat with any car close to 700 pp! Try spa 1h for a awesome experience and is also really challenging 😅

[@Voss44]

I like the weather and the day/night cycle in that race. Just reminds me of S10 so I don't do it too often lol

[@nelsonlandaverde9546]

Hello Voss. Have you seen that you can put this engine on the RX8 now as well? Whenever you get a chance you should check it out

[@Voss44]

Yeah wish I had another swap available! But yeah if I can get one I'll for sure knock it out!

Just wondering, why don’t you run a turbo? With the high rpm turbo fitted it’s still under 700, just wondering if there’s a reason, thanks! edit: nvm I see why now, I forgot I didn’t put on racing hards lmao

[@rrl_rayner9081]

Hi Voss, loving there tunes. Could I get a link to your discord. Would enjoy some further discussion regarding tunes and set ups for some of my cars. Got a league coming up and hoping to utilise your experience 🙏

[@poisoned9399]

oh yeah -this i tried....yeah......monster.... Just going through all the cars i really like and go for leMans with them - this is so mucho fun...:0)

[@panchomillan7945]

I want to see the 800PP build maxed. And this works for every circuit?

[@Voss44]

This tune is specifically geared for Le Mans (long straights, etc.). You can use the tune on other tracks but you should shorten/lengthen your gear ratios for sure. As for 800PP; you can get it there and I have - but I don't think the car handles great and there are better options. So yeah you can use it at 800PP if you want, but the 787B would just be a better option overall and give you much better results.

[@AkumaNoKami6666]

And for racing wheel gamer

[@raymini32]

Magical

[@EPiQ_cR]

FYI: Doing this build on 1.38 the car is PP is only coming in at 683.36. I’m also unable to push the front Aero past 100, which seems to be the primary value lacking. Are you possibly running wide wheels or something not covered here?

[@BlvaKadavrah]

[@Voss44]

I’ve been playing with it but it’s not near as effective from what I can tell. I’ll keep messing around with it!

[@hutsitoo]

NICE!

[@nickd86]

Any info on what your 800pp tune for sardegna is?

[@Voss44]

Honestly, it's not a great tune for Sardegna so I haven't put a vid together on it. The car doesn't brake/corner near as well as any of the others so you lose a lot of time on the corners. Any tune I put out I want to be tried/tested so it's a sure thing! I don't mind sharing if if you want to mess around with it, can post it in the discord if needed.

[@qwerty17724]

Guys I’ve got a question I currently have a rx7 with a ultra high turbo installed, if i do the 787b swap, will i loose the turbo or will it be carried over to the new engine? Thank you

[@Voss44]

I have no idea, hopefully someone in the comments can help!

[@nfl_fan_aus8532]

my setup needs 1 stop but the fuel economy and top end speed is awesome. also kills 600pp Tokyo

[@nfl_fan_aus8532]

I got lucky early when the game came out and got a 787b engine and ultra high turbo for the nismo 35 and the veyron and now everyone has them 🤦‍♂️

[@Voss44]

Not everyone! I don’t have one high turbo yet! Just haven’t been fortunate on the roulette.

[@nfl_fan_aus8532]

I still feel lucky then. I got the carbon shafts and stage 5 weight reduction so they should be quick. the yaris with the supra engine is pretty quick

[@jakerubino3233]

What sort of lap times are you doing on average?

[@Voss44]

I'd have to pull it up but it was in the low 4's. Depends on the mapping mostly.

[@jakerubino3233]

@@Voss44 brilliant. Good to see a useful track tune instead of the multitude of useless “top speed” tune videos for it everywhere. Keep up the good work

[@kathrynrogers989]

Why is the 4 rotor putting out under 500 Hp when it should be at 700 Hp (on a conservative tune....in real life, power could have been increased up to 900 Hp for thr LeMans race). My '93 FD on sequential twins and water-meth injection is putting out 440 rwhp....more than the 787 quad rotor in this engine swap. Why is it so anemic on the game?

[@KhaliqJenkins]

Hmmm when I put in the tune settings my car comes in at 704.69PP. I’ve checked the settings and parts 3x’s 🥴

[@Voss44]

Could be tire selection, rear diffuser (my build doesn't have one), or widebody kit.

[@realfan91]

Do you have a 800 pp tune for sardegna with this car?

[@Voss44]

No, but it might be doable. You'll have enough power and fuel economy would be fine - it's just not great at braking and fairly tough to handle. I built a tune with a corvette ZL1 which works in Sardega - actually beat it. But it's a massive pain in the arse against that viper. I'm sure it's possible to run it in Sardegna - just not a great option because as much as you have the engine you don't have the same power/weight ratio or the handling of a race car. 800PP get's pretty limiting.

[@realfan91]

@@Voss44 thanks. I will go with Escudo, it was easy win with 40 sec lead, howevet i think it is an easy race.

[@JohnHeuerYYZ]

What kind of lap times were you getting at Le Mans?

[@Voss44]

It's solid. 4:10-4:11 when burning more fuel. In the 4:15-4:17 range when fuel mapping around 6. So not the fastest, but it's decent!

@@Voss44 Ah ok. I'm getting 4:07 - 4:15 with the Silvia. I was just curious if this was a much faster car. THanks!

Really wish i went with rx7 instead of the rx8 for this engine swap 🤦🏿‍♂️

[@Voss44]

I wish I had another 787B. I like the rx8 though, the base care is pretty capable! With a swap I'd imagine it's decent?

[@RayTheomo]

@@Voss44 it wont stay on the road no matter how light i drive. Im very heavy footed so maybe its just me. But some cars in this game still just drive like im on Butter Hards tires. No matter how stiff i make the suspension, going as farout with lsd as possible either way, putting weight on the front or back, grip is just non existent on it. Im pretty confident in blaming the game over my, lets call it "aggressive", driving skils. Because i can use a gr.3 or a modern Porsche 911. And turning as hard as i can will keep it planted to the track. But if i use a road car or an older model of the same car, suddenly all it wants to do is donuts. The 787b rx8 is the worst at this. And for some reason even if i try to catch the back end, its like the front wheels have no turning power. Even when im only going like 60 mph and i turn back very sternly, the car just slowly bottoms out and im powerless to stop it.

[@Voss44]

@@RayTheomo I've got a stock tune done for it, I can drop it in the discord if you want. Might be a good starting point. I'd imagine you'd need to crank up the differential and add a bunch of downforce to make it work though. But yeah even the RX7 is hard to control, it's a beast of an engine.
