CAR : Maserati Granturismo S '08
Tire : Comfort Soft to Sports Medium
Brake Balance:
3/4 ( personal BB) or for ABS 0 wheel : 3/4, for ABS 1 - feel free to use your preferred brake balance. I recommend to run 1 click higher at the rear.
Recommended setting for DS3 user :
Steering sensitivity at +1 or +2, all aids off, except ABS 1 ( if not comfortable with ABS 0 ) with 3/4 brake balance as starting point. Go higher if preferred, 5/6 for example.
The Maserati Granturismo S has always been one of my most loved sports car
The replica in particular is a kind of East meets West
, with parts taken from Japan to make this Italian beauty completely transformed.
The weight for a start has been replicated to that of MC Stradale 2013 model, 80 kg lighter than base Granturismo S, while still maintaining the excellent balance at 48/52.
Power and torque has received some improvement in real life, at 460HP and 53 kgm of torque, the replica has both figure replicated.
The 6 speed transmission has also been fixed to replicate real life MC Stradale 2013 specification :
Real life MC Stradale 2013 gear ratio
3.21
2.05
1.44
1.11
0.90
0.76
Final - 4.184
Max speed on every gear, km/h / mph :
1st 75 / 47
2nd 118 / 73
3rd 168 / 104
4th 218 / 135
5th 269 / 167
6th 318 / 198 - real life test top speed
The GT6 replica is as close as possible to replicate the gearing, with max speed on each gear closely replicated, including top speed.
For LSD, a special model is used, Quaife ATB Competition differential, with high initial torque to give smooth response delivery, and high locking rate on drive side giving excellent traction which Quaife is famous for.
Suspension comes from Japan, a special model made by FORTUNE AUTO, the 510 Series Generation 4 Racing Coilover Kit with custom SWIFT Springs.
The 510 Series Gen 4 featuring Fortune Auto's new Ultra Double Digressive Piston ( UDDP ) with updated shim stacks, the Digressive piston allows for high low speed rebound force that effectively control dive, pitch and roll. The rebound force also greatly tapers off to provide the driver with a supple and compliant ride while maintaining superior mechanical grip over rough surfaces.
The replica has 14kg/10kg spring rate with optimal lowered ride height and damper + ARB tuned for exceptional balance.
The Maserati was tuned and test at Tsukuba, Brands Hatch GP, Bathurst, Ascari, Laguna Seca, Trial Mountain, Nurburgring GP/F and Nordschleife.
The car may feel tight to some, this is expected, be smooth with steering, brake and throttle when driving on comfort soft, and the car should glide in and out with no drama
ENJOY
