In contrast to the inaugural season, manufacturers no longer needed to enter their cars separately. In 2017, as long as they held an international licence, all cars and drivers entered in the overall GT3 class, together with the manufacturers in the overall GT4 class were automatically eligible to score points towards the titles.
Championship points were awarded for the first ten positions in each race. Entries were required to complete 75% of the winning car's race distance in order to be classified and earn points, with the exception of Bathurst where a car simply had to cross the finish line to be classified. Individual drivers were required to participate for a minimum of 25 minutes in order to earn championship points in any race. A manufacturer only received points for its two highest placed cars in each round.

Drivers' championship
The results indicate the classification relative to other drivers in the series, not the classification in the race. For unknown reasons some drivers were ineligible to score points. It is unknown which drivers that did not finish in a points scoring position were ineligible to score points.
3 – Charles Espenlaub and Charles Putman's result with PROsport Porsche did not count, because they got a better result with Aston Martin.
Manufacturers' championships
If more than two cars of a specific manufacturer finished in the top 10, these cars would be considered invisible and their points would be redistributed to the next eligible car.
