Bump
Looking for something new to do this weekend so perhaps I'll give one or two of these a try. Any recommendation for which I should start with?
Also, since you seem to be a pretty active member of the touge community here, perhaps you could answer a question that has been bugging me: how is setting up a car for touge different from setting it for normal track use?
Hey tak, when are you returning to GT5 online?
How is rfactor? I'm interested in it.
Just trying your MCR S2000. I must admit, It's one of the most well balanced fun cars I've ever driven! (G27 user here too )
No problem, just got a 3.08.109 at Mt.Akina, I had ABS off, I reckon It's a pretty poor time as I've only been on the track twice but I had one hell of a time doing it. Definitely going to use your tunes again! 👍Thank You, Frisky!

Tell me about it . Recommend any tunes?Haha! Not bad. I remember when I first gone on Akina. Rough and fun times ^_^

I think I'll try the swift, I'm new to touge, this will probably helpYou could try out the Swift, Eunos Roadster TC and the EK9 (RM). I usually use the Swift for course-checking and my EK9 is basically like my Street FF Monster (despite its a RM lol). The Roadster is just amazing!

Didn't get time time to write anything yesterday, but anyway.It'll help a lot! Despite though it's slow on the uphills. I've been working on a 197hp/200ps version with similiar setting and marked about 3:10 or 3:09 on Akina.
Thank you very much, Frisky!! That Roadster is one of the best low HP convertibles I ever drove in the game. Good luck!Didn't get time time to write anything yesterday, but anyway.
MONSTER Suzuki.
It's a fun little car, It seems to float around not needing any power. When you do give it a little blast of power it scoots off due to it's low weight. Another great feature is the fact that, no matter how far you are into a corner, you can change lines almost instantly; this makes the car great for using on tracks you are unfamiliar with *cough* Akina *cough*
The amount of grip it has, even on Comfort Softs, is insane... It's close to GTR type grip. It's a brilliant little suprising car. If anyone reading this is sceptical, just try it, you won't be disappointed!
Thinking I might try the non TC NA MX-5 next, great tunes as always!👍

Comments: Here's my take on the RE 雨宮 (Amemiya) μ (Mu) Boost-Up 7. Ever since I got GT5. I had the best day seeing the Hot-Version Blue Amemiya appear in GT5! When I tried it out though on Sports Hard; it was a diaster. So I decided to tweak this Rotary Monster up for good cornering and stability balance for Sports Hard. This baby uses stock turbines boosted up to 1kg with other Amemiya goodies giving it 380ps! 2nd gear can get a little dangerous just like one of the MotorTrend's reviewers said while testing the Spirit R Type A FD3S, "If you're mid-corner when that second turbo spools up; things can get sideways". So just shift-up to 3rd to avoid that bit. ENJOY!
Finally found the best tune for the RE Amemiya FD3S ever! I used this setup, albeit the car is fully tuned and max downforce with Sports Softs. I am not the best of players, but I managed 6:57.508 at the Nurburgring! Before, I could do just 7:00 and slower.
Arigatou!

*Review*
*Tested on SH tires*
I tried this beast out last night, and wow. It truly is one of the more perfect renditions of the Amemiya Rx7's that i have tried. The almost 400 hp takes it up to speed at a rate thats usually reserved for supercars, while the suspension, which has been tuned with the utmost precision, rotates the car to the apex of the corner. As you whip the car into the corner, it seems as though it cannot spin as it 4 wheel drifts through, following the clipping point with the precision of sniper. It exits the corner, it lets you down gently from your white knuckled grip on the steering wheel as it gradually, yet quickly regains its footwork on the rear as the LSD bites down to the concrete. On slight S bends it gets even better. Its carves them like a Christmas ham as it swiftly shuffles through without a wag of its tail, or so much as a peep from the tires, thanks to the purpose tuned aerodynamics. All in all this car is nothing short of amazing. From canyon carving to attacking the clock at Tsukuba, it is truly a beast of a machine. Complaints? Yeah theres a complaint, none of my personal tunes will ever be able to reach the bar you've set with this car.
