Background: This is what I call the result of months of tedious tuning. Though intially armed with only 353 hp, It can acquire a hp rating of 788 (all standard gtr's vary in max hp). When you upgrade those mean-spinning turbos and with racing tires, It can go around the Nurburgring in under 6:30.000. Don't let these numbers fool you, it is still a thrill just to cruise in it.

I have a real challenge for you. Turn a classic BMW 2002 Turbo into a Touge Monster!:crazy:

In certain respects it has the perfect pedigree for Touge since it was designed and built to be a quick nimble car as at home carving up the Alps as flying down the Autobahn.
Of course its handling in GT5 requires some serious tuning to actually make it driver friendly.:D

Desperado youre a masochist :D

You should see the cars I'm currently tuning and what I'm tuning them for!:D

Two clues for you...
Modern day version of the Stratos...
Pan-America revived...

C-ZETA has me in that off-road mode except now I can do it my way!:crazy::gtpflag:

I honesty would, but they're extremely hard to come by. I will tune one if I do find one.

Send me an FR on PSN same ID as here. I'm pretty sure I have one I can send you.👍👍

Just so you know I have an extra 2002 you can have to keep if you like.

Also I have one I've been messing about with some. At 500PP I'm currently running 4:03 offline on the Touge track for TimberW's shootout. Using Sports Hard tires and stock transmission because you bounce of the rev limiter with the close ratio. Car is currently very squirrely and I'll probably put it on the back burner for now. I'm sure the way I have it currently that with SS tires and a FC transmission it would be very competitive in the Supercar Nostalgia seasonals.:D

Background: First off, I would like to thank bigberry for donating the car. Tuning this was not an easy task. Though on paper it is a good candidate for touge racing, but you have to consider its outdated suspension. Though old, the suspension has been tuned to handle the high power to rate ratio. Proper Throttle control is key to keep this lightweight on the track and out of the ditch. Though not the best car for the touge scene, it will set times you would not believe it could do.

@Winters Noble curious what sort of time your making on TimberW's Touge shootout track?

I'll try your settings on one of my 2002s when I get home from work.

Also offer is still open if you want one to keep...I currently have four of them all fairly low mileage and only the one I've been toying with has been touched.:D

Background: Overshadowed by the Impreza in the WRC, The Lancer Evo hasn't seen much action since the days of Tommy Makinen. Where does its purpose reside now? Though born on the dirt path, the Evo does quite well on the much tamer pavement. Heavier than its older brothers, the X still manages to glide though the turns just as fast, if not faster. I guess the Evo is now out of retirement, now taking part on the touge.

Background: "Change is as good as a Holiday" is what I've done here. Instead of limiting to the usual 500pp, I made a car that is purpose built for track day fun at higher pp's. With the tightest suspenision ever put on a R34 and a low-rpm turbo, This car can go around the nurburgring in under 7 minutes with just racing hards and initial settings. Instead of endless straights that favor power, This car favors the tight, complex corners that follow.
 
Alright, I've got a suggestion for you: Ferrari F40. It is so brilliant stock, but slow. Also, massive respect for using sport hard tires on most of your tunes. It means you actually have to do a good job.
 
Thanks of the complement. I've been driving my F40 hard for a while now trying to break in the engine. I'm going to wait for the engine to break in and Spec II to post the tune so you can get optimum feeling of the setup.

Background: Though this is a touge machine, it is definitely not street legal. Housing 340ps within a fully stripped body makes an average racer hesitant to get behind the wheel. But listening to the engine as it approaches its 10200rpm redline is a siren song for racers everywhere. But hey, the real fun is overtaking unsucspecting rivals in this turbocharged, beautifual pink honda at the Nurburgring.
