Consulting my old mate who owned S14 years ago ( tuned for track days at Eastern Creek), now I'm running his real car alignment, combined with spring rates from Kei Office XR, so far the car handles great :D

Kei Office Erfolg Kei XR F 9kg/mm R 7kg/mm - fixed bound/rebound
Camber 3.0/1.4
Toe 0.08/0.16 - he was running toe in both front ( 1mm ) and rear ( 2mm ) - sometimes run 0 toe rear and 0.05 toe in front (17" wheel - I think my GT Auto wheel is also 17" )
Front Caster : 7 - 7.5 deg ( no applicable in GT5 :grumpy: )
Nismo ARB : front 30mm, rear 23 mm, not sure how this translate in GT5 :confused: :lol:


My tune is running over 400HP, will be on share soon, still about 80%, needs more fine tuning in ARB, dampers, transmission and LSD.

I think my LSD would be based on Nismo GT series, 1.5 way, 6kg preload, cam 55 degrees.

Anyone interested to test please do so, and don't forget give me feedback.
 
CSLACR, just to confirm, I'm in for 450PP.

Might have changed my mind on the Jaaaag... Nissan or Jaguar guys?

Praiano, your friends list is full.

Well, if you're still on, how about we see how it does on the track and decide then? :P
 
Oi Praiano, since you've got nothing to do between now and Feb 3 for this shootout, how about you act as my hands and feet? I cannot for the life of me drive a lap of the 'Ring at full pace without crashing, so I want you to do that job for me! :D

Pleaaaase? :dopey:

Sure my friend, what car ?? on share??
 
Onboy123
YAHOOO!!!!! :lol: Corvette ZO6 '04, on share now. Not fully broken in and with a lot of inconsistencies in the handling.

Ok. I've tested quickly your MR2 at 450PP , it's a very nice car, perfect handling and balance, just need more top speed, 2.10 didn't help it. :ouch:

Going to check the Corvette after lunch.:)

THAT'S NOT FOR THIS SHOOTOUT! :lol::lol: It's for the Touge shootout on the other thread! :lol: I might use it here actually, since I have taken a liking to the MR2.
 
Yes, I'll update the OP tonight after work with all the new entries, been extremely busy the past 2 days. :crazy:
 
Onboy that was... interesting to say the least. Your car has grip issues. :lol: Smoke coming off your tyres 50% of the time in that one lap. :P

And what happened at the end? I know you won by 0.3 secs but I was ahead going into the last corner. :lol:

Like I said, it has too much power. :lol: The issues are as follows:
- I can't get it off the line from a standing start since the tyres are cold and have no grip, so I need to either quick-shift into 2nd or stall it like I did in every race.
- Up to the first checkpoint, I can only use 400hp in 4th, all the other times I may as well be running 300hp. :lol:
- Top speed is too low, as you saw. 167mph since I keep forgetting to make 6th longer.
- It weighs a bit too much, so there's no correcting if I overshoot even slightly.
- Can't get power to the ground from slow corners, even with the wing.

So…353hp/~1100kg>406hp/1250kg in this case. :lol:

I have 2 Silvia tuned at 450PP, both can reach 180mph+ on the long straight :D one has 379HP and 1000kg, the other has 427HP and 1140kg :) Needs some final tweak.

The final straight surprised me, I expected you to shoot off, but you didn't and I just reeled you in. :lol:

The Jaaag is really heavy... 1577kg with ballast added, and only about 10hp more than your Silvia. Still, it can put the power down most of the time, which is more important I guess. I loved how close that race was. :P

Yes you did, I was ahead, then suddenly, I wasn't anymore, I was in the grass. Did your brakes fail and you just punted into the back of me? :lol:

No, I just completely forgot about the last point, the whole "no power can be used in low gears out of slow corners" bit and was flung sideways into your Jag. I just regained control from that fish tailing in the high speed braking bit and clipped some grass, so don't look at me. :lol:

Oh yea :lol: My brakes failed me in the last braking zone coming off from the straight, and I hit the armco, I think you hit me when I was incapitated there too. :lol: Presumably that's where you fishtailed?
