Believe me, there's a niche crowd of us that REALLY appreciates this content
Don't apologize for making these types of videos. It is what is needed to learn for the purpose and if someone doesn't want to watch it, they can just not watch it.
Some people don't appreciate the help they're getting these days with the videos tips. Back in the old days i had to really ask a mechanic about this"game"questions and they roasted me but still help 😂
these types of videos are so important for general knowledge, like here on youtube just random videos about random part replacements like an o2 sensor on a 2001 1500
I’m going to need to watch this 3 more times and take notes. I grasp the basic principles and totally dig it.
Biggest take away? Shifting in the correct moments to stay in the power band. I probably don’t do that. So that’s gonna be the first thing I do tomorrow.
Any updates? I'm just now following your path.
@@therookie710 any updates? Same position as you 5 months ago !
@@therookie710 This is how I do gear ratio's. It's very simple and will work for anyone. ruclips.net/video/hV-pIxRpUdc/видео.html
i shift it like it’s a lada, only by the sound

My five cents.
Choose your car and track combination. Ideally the upcoming Gran Turismo 7 event.
Set final drive to 4:1
Set first gear to 3:1
Set final drive to 1:1
Spread the other gears so it looks nice.
Drive the car for a couple of laps.
Note problems you notice. Revving out in top gear, for example.
Move final drive to improve top speed.
Move first drive so you can use it effectively when lapping. If you tune for best standing start you might enjoy drag racing.
Spread the other gears so it looks nice.
Do some more laps.
Fine tune. Now is the time to look more closely at the middle gears. Look for good gear/corner combinations.
More laps.
Fine tune.
And repeat.
Thank you, Harmonic. Your intro into gearing is good stuff.
I'd like to hear your thoughts on Brakes.
Thanks brother, I’m determined to be faster than most people I meet online w engine swaps, after about a month of slow and frustrating progress I’m on RUclips trying to understand the craft that is gear ratios.
People are helpful in lobbies but don’t want to give away their secrets which I don’t blame them for!
Side note how fun are engine swaps on gt7? Used to drift on there but now absolutely love drag racing! Personally love gt7 not perfect but it’s exciting!
God bless you for the effort for this video, I’ve watched a few now and this one actually explains it well.
Proper dear John essay thanks for reading if you did!
One Love.
I have divided this video into many chapters to break down each section and make it a bit easier to digest. Hope this helps!
To those who might've seen this before, this is a reupload to correct a few things from the first time. Thanks to those who provided feedback for that!
Hey, I have watched this yesterday, but then it disappeared. Did something happened?
@@wgk4845 yes, I reuploaded it with some edits to correct a couple things
@@Harmonic14 thank you so much.
@@wgk4845 - Thought I was going crazy! Great video, and grateful for the edits.
Thank you. I love the way you explain things and the dynamics you apply to your videos. Certainly one of the best channels about this topic. Congrats and thank you again!
Great video, I’ve struggled for years with gears - this being the most informative and easy to understand and implement video I’ve come across - thank you !! 🙂
Great video! I’ve been playing these games for years Gran Turismo sport wasn’t as technical and I’m really glad they brought back a lot of the old tuning selections and visual pieces that go along with. Suspension has always been the part about this game I haven’t fully understood I have a basic understanding of it.
Thx for this video as it answered my question about retention of settings for fully customizable gearbox. Most of the other topics served to confirm what I already understood about GT gearing implementation. I wish more players interested in or confounded by this tuning aspect also could view this.
Attempting to replicate IndyCar settings for ovals, I was attempting to run multiple top gears by closely stacking them - fail. Armed with this new knowledge, I still must revisit this technique when I again have access to the game.
Thx also for reference videos; I've followed Jason on YT for years & these are finely detailed & are soundly mathematically based. I very recently had viewed a couple of your videos concerning GT7 topics as they luckily appeared in my timeline. Only today did I find this video referenced from GT Planet; more good fortune. I am a new sub for your channel; I really enjoy your presentation style 😎
I love the methotical and deep guide you are making, keep it up please :D, learning so much
Thank you, so much, for putting such meticulous effort into this video. What a wonderful tool for tuners to have! I’ll admit, this is pretty intimidating for me, a newbie tuner. I don’t think I’m ready for this level of tuning just yet but I’ve come out of this learning that people tune cars for specific tracks - so there’s something! I’ll come back to this video when I’m truly ready for it! Liked and subscribed!
Very informative video, Harmonic! Keep up the good work dude! :)
Hey buddy, can´t thank you enough for consolidating all this knowledge all at once! Awesome work!!! Tks!
I had an OK grip on how gears worked, but this helped me learn the missing pieces! Great explaination!
Great video, I learned more here than I did with my math teacher. There’s no need to apologize, at the end, the people who hate are just gonna loose the speed. Keep talking facts man! And don’t hear haters
The video is gold in information and to make the most of it I have watched it more than 5 times to break it down and understand it. Greetings from Ecuador.
Thank you! This is exactly what I needed. My 1LE Camaro was having extreme trouble with preset 3rd gear, whether it was getting to it or leaving it. I’d red line 2nd then flip to third and third would red line instantly and i was so confused on how to fix that as to not spin out attempting to reach 4th gear. Now all gears ride smooth, with a slight redline on 3rd, but nowhere near as bad.
That Camaro is a monster. I have a pretty simple way of doing gear ratios. ruclips.net/video/hV-pIxRpUdc/видео.html
Can you please share what you did to the gears? Im having the exact same issue, I tuned the 1LE almost to the max and the amount of wheelspin is insane, I have to do 2nd gear with just 50% throttle and 3rd can't go full throttle until the very end, then in 4th I have to once again wait quite a bit until I can go full throttle (I play without TC). All this even without the superchargers.
@@naico144 I show my gear ratios for the Camaro in my video. You can pause and compare. The video shows the same way I got there.
@@prtcountersteer Yeah just saw them, thanks a lot dude. I'll test them tomorrow and give feedback. Again, tysm
@@naico144 Let me know how it goes!
Wow, that was something else! I did not expect to learn so much, I’ve had so many questions answered! Thank you!
Your videos are just brilliant, you have a very enthusiastic and very easy to understand way that you convey information, you really don't need to apologise, make the content you want to make how you want to make it, you can clearly see ppl really enjoy and find your content really helpful, keep it up good work :)
I was searching just yesterday looking for this info! Thank you so much!
Great video! Would love to see average lap time comparisons from default gearbox settings to final optimization. Nice work on this!
fantastic explanation of some very subtle but important points.
Great vid man!! I have a fair idea of gear ratios but this is at another level and I will sure be trying it out.
Thanks
yep, the same to me
Great video! Feel like I will be referring back to this many times. Looking forward to more videos just like this.
These videos really help people appreciate the realism of this game.
Great content here. Keep pushing, champions
Great stuff! perfect for someone who thrives on information to improve my competitive ability. even with my lack of general car knowledge. Please do more! I have lots of my questions surround getting the best handling for each car type, and i would like to know the limits of certain cars on certain courses. ex. Nurbergring vs. Forest Trail, which cars are right for each track type. Anyways, I will continue my search, but this has been the best channel for this type of info.
Thank you for all your effort. That made great sense. Time well spent.
This is awesome !!! Dont worry about lecture format. This is gold. Please continue.
Just started SIM racing and took one look at the tuning and felt sick 😂 this has helped me so much thank you
Great video. Gearing isn’t easy for a lot of people to understand, including myself. The breakdown you gave was exactly what I needed. Thank you
You don't need to know how to do the math, I post up a very simple way to do transmissions. ruclips.net/video/hV-pIxRpUdc/видео.html
Thanks for your time and effort your putting into these videos it shows there is more to this than just getting behind the wheel and going for it as to say,
Thanks man
That was a great description on how to tune a transmission.
Looking forward to seeing more.
Just came across this video - really well put together...I agree with another comment here though, will probably have to watch it a couple of times to absorb all the info haha! Great guide, really helpful!!
Great video! Super knowledgeable. This channel is going to blow up. Just subbed! Thanks again!
Did I miss where you show how to set your gears inside the power band?? I can’t figure that out
Watched 3 vids of yours today’s, defo earned a like.
Thanks for dropping so much knowledge needed this video
Excellent video, easy to digest, would recommend to anyone who wants too try tuning their gearbox
This is incredible, thank you very much. Hopefully we'll see more of these tutorials!
Awesome Video! So much good information. Thanks so much.
I've been looking for some in depth tuning guides! thanks!
Thank you! A very helpful presentation we also appreciate the content and would like more. Well done!
Great video, extremely helpful
Your content is golden bro
Very informative! It's definitely a great video.
Thank you
Thank you - I was trying to figure this out yesturday and ended up going back to default as I couldn't make the car quicker. Much appreciated.
Extremely helpful. I am following.
Great video, mate. Subbed. I’ll be referencing your channel frequently. Thanks!
Thanks for making this. Well done
I liked this video while the ad was still playing. Thank you for making this video
After the third time watching this it finally clicked! Now I understand how to tune gear ratios on my own. Thank you!
Awesome I totally love these types of videos thanks for the info
This is EXACTLY what I’m looking for! 😁
Really insightful stuff! I will definitely be dropping in on your page in the future.
Awesome vid. I hope you do similar ones for other setup options in the game.
This really helped me to understand setting up my gear ratios
My guy, your videos are detailed and intellectual and very helpful. Don’t apologize in the video. Let these people know, hey, if you want to get better then watch this shit because I have some useful info. If not, why did you click in the first place. Be confident knowing you have something to teach.
This has been an unsolicited social tip from some jackass that appreciated the tips. Good day sir. Keep it up.
Dont apologize brother, your video is very helpful. Gracias!
Fantastic video. Thank you!
great explanation, i always do a test run with normal gears and take notes, adjust my gears so that way my top speed isn't compromised, then i run another test lap until i am satisfied with the setup.
thank you ...that was very interesting ... appreciate the effort put in ... learnt something new from you ... again.
Awesome video bro very explanatory
Great content mate keep it coming
Great vid. Thank you man👊
I like your presentation and your voice. Video was really useful and I hope to see more tuning videos from you in the future
Great Video! Very helpful thanks
Awesome gatta stay in that power band! The rpm stat helps! And looking at the power curve is interesting
I learned a lot thanks mate. Any video on driving physics is cool!
Thank you so much for the explaining and sharing!
High quality content!
Liked and Subscribed. Excellent video!
Thank you very much for this video.
Great video dude. Thanks much!
GUD STUFF BUDDY!!! TY!!! I ALWAYS LOVE LEARNING AND U R A GREAT TEACHER!!!
Cheers for this mate. 👍
Thanks man! Subscribed and wishing for your success, very well put explanations imh
This is awesome stuff. New subscriber.
Hell yea it’s wat we want dude! Respect!
Hello, thank you for the video. I wouldn't mind learning a bit about the camber settings in GT7. Since seeing your video about the ride height I started using photo mode to look at my tires and the suspensions compression. I've noticed the tires themselves are compressing and stretching too in the game which is awesome, but it seems that the camber does not change at all with the movement of the suspension. You would think when the body presses down on the outside strut the camber becomes more negative and visa versa, but I don't see it. It made me think about your tunes with minimal camber setup. It's also hard for me to decide if I should raise the spring rate, dampeners or torsion bars. I've raised my car 40mm but I still don't get to full steering lock with my controller while taking some turns, I suspect GT7 has some sort of steering aid always on when using a controller, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was my suspension setup. I try this on a Ford Focus RS with 499Bhp and wide wheels. Also my handbrake does not work anymore, even with the tuning handbrake. I bought another RS, didn't tune it and my handbrake does work. Very strange.
Thanks anyway, Super GT mentioned your channel and I've loved all you content since that day! ☺
A video that looks like a lecture? I'm in!
Thanks for amazing useful videos!
Great video!
You got my sub great video this makes sense why some people pull away from me after cornering
Have yet to delve into what you've tackled here in GT7 (did it back in the GT days of old), but currently each car I drive I somewhat get to _feel_ where the power bands are in relation to each's peak torque and max power simply by listening to the engine's audio (and the length of time it appears to yield through each gear's progression). Not an ideal approach of course trying to hear where these power bands are so appreciate the thorough demonstrations of what actually happens if we drove each car as we'd generally expect - revving all the way out to the redline, though as you've shown for some cars it's a clear disadvantage if not set up properly.
Just came across your channel so will endeavour to watch any other informative aspects of car tuning in GT7 - if they're as extensive and informative as this, superb instruction - I get the feeling there's going to be a high demand for such content.
I touch base on this in my video where I explain a very simple method, without the math, how to do gear ratios. ruclips.net/video/hV-pIxRpUdc/видео.html
Great video! Thanks! Subscribed for more. Looking forward to it.
Super helpful. Thank you!
Great video. Thanks
THANK YOU!!! I couldn't find the peak power charts.
You are the man ! Thanks keep it up on your next video can you show us on the transmission screen where we should line up the lines more or less that would be very helpful also thank you for what you do.
Agreed. I love the information, but the chart with the gear lines doesn’t totally make sense to me. Especially as it has 7,000 RPM at the top where the car is at Max Power at 6,500 in the example. The other thing was the “Max Speed” setting shown on the main screen after changing the gears.
@@coachjoeenglish Agree 100%
@@coachjoeenglish I chose not to go into that because it takes even more guess work to figure out where your gears land by looking at the chart, and it just increases confusion. Because of how basic that chart is in the game, its only practical use for me is making sure my gears don't look oddly spaced out. If it had a grid and some more detail, I would definitely use it more.
You're much better off just driving on the track and setting gears that way. As long as you understand how to make gears longer and shorter with the sliders and why you should do so, that's all you really need.
As for the Top Speed setting, it's just a quick slider to set all gears longer or shorter. Be careful with it though, because if you move it after setting your individual gears, it will revert those changes. That's why I tend not to use it.
Great content mate, liked and subscribed. I kinda sort of get it now 85%, but would love to have seen tuning a car from start to finish and going over the steps for each gear.
Great video, make so much more sense - worthy of a sub! Can you do a video on your workflow and process to tuning the suspension?
You really explained things that I was doing but I had no idea of what I was really doing. If you know what I mean. Thank you for the very informative video and I’m truly going to advance my speed and times because of your videos thanks..again
Great video.... Just had to subscribe after viewing this content. 👍🏾
I really enjoy this technical knowledge. never been one to understand the correlation between each set of systems especially gearing. keep it up love learning these things to be be a better driver.
If anything I'd love to see how the correlation between a proper gear box for say... a Short track would relate to a properly tuned suspension and LSD to handle power in the corners under load and off load. I know the other videos you have up more or less go over this and its a bit of trial and error. nonetheless if anything id enjoy to see your process of going about it.
Thanks a ton for sharing your knowledge!!
This video is a gem, used to love gear tuning on GT4 on PS3. I loved it up until they shut down the PS3 servers :/ haven't gotten gt7 yet but this video has motivated me to get back in the game and up my skills again!
Man, you are tunning Yoda !!!
Very helpful thank you, SUBSCRIBED
liked and subcribed least i could do for a really informative video, outstanding my man. love fron Ireland
Good video man
