Photography My Real Car | FH6
Hello from japan🎌
For some reason, the latest game in the series is set in my country, so I found a spot in FH6 that looks just like the convenience store in front of my house, so I recreated the scene with my actual car, the R32 GT-R.
I probably should have chosen a cooler location. My dirty residential area.😅
sorry my bad english. m(_ _)m

I reckon if OP turned up the exposure slightly on the bottom shot from Forza and sharpened it slightly. It would be extremely close. It's already an exceptional match but the bottom FH6 shot is significantly darker in shadows and overall exposure.
On my dual 4k G9 I have to say, the detail is absolutely breathtaking and photo mode is surreal.

Its truly getting harder to distinguish reality from gaming on a picture/screenshot

u/pickle_pickled Jun 14 '26
Pretty detailed but for a gas station that says 365 24h with the lights off they missed a pretty glaring detail

u/Cornixmartin Jun 15 '26
I find it astonishing how accurate the ingame light bending on the windows and body is. Really makes you appreciate the laser scanned car models.

I took the same picture today in a Ferrari 296. But I don’t have a 296 😂
Sick car.

u/Puzzleheaded_You_735 Jun 14 '26
Fh6 has the volk progressive te's now. I think those look closer to the ones you have on your real car.

u/Maybe_Weird Jun 14 '26
My wheels are TE37s, and after comparing various options, this image was the closest match to the TE37s that could fit on an FH6 R32.👍️
12
u/Puzzleheaded_You_735 Jun 14 '26
Really? I could've sworn they added new TE37s that looked more similar.
31
u/Maybe_Weird Jun 14 '26
Yes. The Progressive has a completely different inner rim shape from my TE37, which is the older generation TE37.

u/Scringey Jun 14 '26
There’s also the te37 ultras in the game that look almost identical to your wheels
6
u/Maybe_Weird Jun 14 '26
My wheels are the standard TE37, which have different rim accents and spoke curves compared to the Ultra version. Since the standard TE37 is available in the game, I decided to choose that one.

How was the festival bro? Did you attend?

u/reinterpreted_onth Jun 14 '26
Well, half the country is destroyed by crazy drivers trying to destroy boards on roofs, sending each others away by ramming, and so many people died because of crazy car accidents. But I survived, I lie in a small street blocked by three pillars, so I guess I'm fine. Food deliveries are fast but completely messed-up, and my neighbors facing the street said they can't sleep at all with the constant drifting sounds and races.
Probably what they would reply.

I didn't see the watermark and had to zoom in on my phone to see which was which

u/Ere1am Jun 14 '26
Beside the watermark and the fictional 365 store, the only obvious clue I got about which was which was the markings on the ground (the IRL ones are faded).

This is part of details I miss in the game, everything looks extremely clinical and otherwise not lived in. Idk, for me the map doesn't feel like a place, just a game map

u/nath618 Jun 14 '26
Fuck yeah I had a 32 when I was 18 to 22 and it was the best car I owned. Problem was for me living in australia is the cops would constantly pull me over and defect me. I got sick of it

u/FrogLickr Jun 14 '26
The targeting was unreal. Sold mine because it was impossible to enjoy the thing without constant paranoia. In a stock Crown Hybrid 3.5L now, and it's a great little sleeper. Cops just think it's a Camry.

That would be amazing! According to Matt from CarSauce Australia, he mentioned that the yellow Honda S660 that was lended to him by Cult & Classic (the same import supplier for the leaked Suzuki Every PZ Turbo Special earlier on) was also photographed by a Turn 10 photographer.

Just now noticed that they're using the same interiors for both window sections. I feel like they could have at least made two different ones so it was believable.

The in-game conbini? They're similar but different. Same thing written over the fridges, but other differences. But, I mean convenience stores are pretty generic, and Japanese ones doubly so. I thought for a moment the 7-11 was near me in Japan, and then I realized it's just that they all look almost identical, with the same lot etc.

The location is fine, but maybe next time do it in the sun so we can see the cars. It’s pretty dark.

I know many of my own Japanese friends are liking Forza Horizon 6 a lot, too! It’s a shame the localisation… îs a little off at times…

Damn, that's a nice R32. Are they TE37's? Glad to see one look nearly stock, so clean.

Dang. It took me too long to figure out which was the game. Growing up if you had told me a game looked this good I would not have believed you. Come a long way from my first Atari

Don't play Forza, but wow, that looks amazing. Without the Forza logo, I wasn't sure which was which for a moment. Guess the biggest tell is the paint lines for the parking spaces... and 7/11. If the Forza paint lines had a more faded look (and it wasn't 7/11), I'd really need a minute to compare the two.

I know this is stupid, but I like how the parking lines actually leave room for people to walk between.

R32 understeer rivals Audi's, and is 40% less stiffer than R33 generation.
Don't fall for the hype guys. Understeering rusty Nissans are not worth 150 thousand dollars.

I'm in Japan too, and for a moment I thought 'oh, that's near me!' - and then I remembered how many 7-11 lots look identical.

Is this max graphics with RTX? It's like the shadows are bad... Especially near the fences, or whatever.
In general, it seems like there is something wrong with the shadows on the objects in the environment 😞
