Back in the day, a modder named Mildrew made some great sound mods for GTR2. They sound super, and don't deserve to be lost!
I am simply reproducing and sharing Mildrew's fantastic work, having changed the folder structure slightly and having copied and pasted the modded portions of the AUD file to work alongside changes already made to GTR2 default sounds by @GTR233's HQ Anniversary Patch.
This mod contains sounds for several cars:
File is in 7z format -- so please extract with an up-to-date version of 7-Zip.
The sounds are stored in GameData\Sounds\GTR\MildrewSounds\CARNAME. Note that along with the modded AUD files, I also include the original HQ AUD files with `_original` at the end of the filename.
If you decide you don't want to use these sounds, you can revert back to the original HQ content sounds easily by removing `_original` off the end of the backup file names (thus restoring the original HQ AUD files) and deleting the MildrewSounds folder.

For a preview, the sounds are something like this (although my sounds IMO don't sound quite as nice as these):
------
All credits to Mildrew for creating these sounds! Thank you thank you thank you Mildrew! And thanks also to Maxellero and friends on EEC for sharing Mildrew's work as a part of the FIA GT 2000-2009 mod.
There is almost certainly work to be done in tweaking these sounds to be better balanced alongside the HQ Anniversary Patch sounds, but if I ever do this, I'll do it in another mod. Here, I just wanted to catalogue Mildrew's original work as I found it.
If I've made any mistakes in reproducing Mildrew's work, though, please let me know, and I'll do my best to fix it. Also, if Mildrew made sound mods for more GTR2 cars and I've missed them, please point me towards those mods, and I'll happily update the mod to include them here.

Enjoy!
