I love this little car, does anybody have a good tune? I can't seem to find a good tune myself, having understeering issues. Thanks!
 
IIRC the car is a race car, pretty much comes with all adjustments. As with all FF cars you want soft front bar, max rear bar, front toe-in, lots of front camber(2+ deg), close to no rear camber. Rear suspension should be stiffer in both shock and spring. Low front ride height and high rear. Set LSD to have minimum effect on braking, and not too high on accel, with low-ish initial torque unless you feel comfortable fighting corner exit under steer. Downforce wise more front than rear until you have problem under braking with the rear coming loose, then add more rear wing to compensate.
 
^^^ I don't agree with all those settings. I use a slightly stiffer rear bar (not max) identical front and rear spring rates, and an even ride height. Works ok for me...
 
I should add, your mileage may vary....driving style, your comfort level at the skittish-ness of the car all plays into it. I am sure there are people fine with stock setup as well.
 
I got lotsa love for this little yappy car :D

set a time of 7:54.188 on the Nurburgring Nordschlife with this. (without any tuning)

Someone tell me if they have done/can do faster.

I got a 7:49.223 =p lol

EDIT: BTW just to let you guys know. I love the standard integras and basically all Hondas but I don't add an aftermarket exhaust to any of my cars now cause I found out he AM exhausts make your car sound hideous. I actually love how my '98 Dc2 Type R sounds with stock muffler.(all motor)

WOW! Nice one 👍 :)

Did you tune your Mugen in anyway to get that time or did you just race it stock?
 
I won this car really early on, had to use it for many of the beginner races as it was simply my fastest car in certain categories.

Who else was really taken-a-back by what a shockingly low-res awful/pixelated textured car this is to give players as a prize car early in the game? I haven't found any car that looks (and sounds!) quite as GT1 since...

I applaud anyone who can enjoy it. But then I simply hate FF.

DC2 Integras sound pretty good with the sport exhaust.
