I never wrote the original transmission tune down because I changed the top speed to get the speed I wanted and I am happy with the track and gear combo now.

I originally used the factory final gear and top speed of 180 mph, then I set first gear to the lowest. That is all the information I think you would need because to increase speed, final gear lowers, and thus increases the first gear's range.

My main question now though, for my examples of Tsukuba and Mount Panorama, would I probably have to build a different gear range because of this new restriction?

I think he issue is in the shifting of first gear to the lowest is your issue based on your post. Whats interesting is what kind of difference to first gear that actually makes and if the drop to the limit i required.

As I see it the first gear dropped is at the limit of the range, and a FD adjustment from that combo will trigger the glitch reset. The difference in the set up of first gear mid to dropped could be a matter of a few mph difference, not all that worth it, BUT if a different starting point is selected to establish the gear set its possible the same gearing relatively can be used without triggering the reset on FD adjustment in the range you would like.

What is your WRS ranking on GTP since you are mocking someone who is D1 Gold last time I checked?

Funny thing too, most people in GT6 do think lap times are the end of the world because they want to win races. You know, racing, where finishing first is the goal, not duplicating real world lap times and handling characteristics on cars you've never driven in real life and have no idea what they should feel like in the game if properly simulated.

If people want to tune and make replicas that's fine, all the power to you. Just don't go running around pretending you're so fast and know everything about the game physics when you're not willing to post a few tunes and put your theories to the test. Talk is cheap, prove it on the track or you're nothing but a windbag.

Transmission
Initial Final stock
Max Speed 199
First Gear 2.270
Second Gear 1.520
Third Gear 1.130
Fourth Gear 0.880
Fifth Gear 0.700
Final Gear stock

This is my current setup, all gears are in the lower half of the available range, with this setup, would there be a chance that I could get close to a desired range on Tsukuba being there is a bigger range to deal with? I would also be testing this idea but Netflix is over ruling that idea right now.

I will take a look at that

For the first set my car is stock, no engine tuning so the rev limit is at 6300rpm. I adjusted to 186mph on Top Speed slider, then I dropped the first gear to 2.380 instead of 2.245 (lowest setting available) finally moving the FD to 3.340 and the gears did not reset

Thats just to show an option

Ill have a look at what you just posted

Two things, first, that is an interesting piece of info, and second, I have Engine Stage 3 installed.

Edit: I got on and tested, I can get about .370 from the final gear before it resets, I would like a little more from it when at Tsukuba though.

First setting desired final gear, then moving max speed slider to activate gear scale ranges for that final gear and then moving it until you see at there is sufficient range for all of your desired gear values, then input those values and enjoy.
If combo of final gear and used gear value are not found on scale it will reset gearbox.

Why?

I cant get into 5th gear with your set up at Tsukuba. I've got the FD with your gears at 3.740, and still raising it to get to the top of 5th at Tsukuba, why would you want more top speeds from the gears at a track you already cant hit the top of 5th at?

Make your high speed your starting point (tune to your Cars maximum, and low speed adjustments take raising the FD, so you can raise the FD as last step instead of lowering and get the same end results.

Like what Ive done to your current set. Its set for around 186mph at the top of 5th, but cant hit 186mph at Tsukuba, So the FD is raised to lower the top speed of 5th. Im confused as to why you would be lowering the FD to stretch the gears even further.

I wrote it in a confusing way, I see that now. What I meant was I wanted to continue lowering FD to be able to access 5th gear/ better acceleration in total, but the "glitch" restricts me from doing so. Does this make more sense?
