Hmmm.

I gave you more rotation, I slightly cut down the tendency to step out, made it faster by a not-inconsiderable margin, and... It's worse. :lol:

Oh well, all I was looking for was time. I found that. I'm happy.

All I did to the S2000 was lower the rear spring by 0.1. :lol:

I played with the rear springs, dampers, and anti-roll bar plus actually added a proper differential. It's actually usable away from the touge now, not to mention faster on the touge. Before I tweaked it, the understeer was HILARIOUSLY bad anywhere other than Akina :lol:
 
ZedMan1996 – Acura NSX ‘91
Sector Time: 0:58.542
My impressions: This old NSX feels like a solid base tune for someone who new to the touge.
Grip & rotation are quite good but i found its acceleration was slow and that it suffered from understeer. Good beginner tune...

Pros:
- Good Grip
- Good Rotation

Cons:
- Understeer
- Slow Acceleration
My Score: 97/100

:lol: Thanks! I literally only tuned it once and driven it once and that was it :lol: Happy to see it do well considering the lack of attention it had :)
 
Street-King-07 – BMW Z4 ‘03
Sector Time: 0:58.421
My impressions: This Z4 feels as home and the suspension is tuned well, There is some understeer mid-turn but i found it didn’t hurt the cars rotation too much. However i felt that the L.S.D on this car needed a little bit more work as i was easily able to brake traction on some turns
Pros:
- Good Grip
- Good Rotation
- Good Acceleration

Cons:
- Understeer
- L.S.D needs more work
My Score: 98/100

Not a bad score for my Z4. 👍 I did set the LSD to dial out understeer but I might've set it too far the other way.

extreme_car – Honda NSX Type R ‘92
Sector Time: 0:56.692
My impressions: A great NSX with a lot to give. The wide gear ratios work well with the grip levels but i’m finding myself in a lower gear than most car in the turns. Everything about this car is good apart from the oversteer i’m getting on the tighter turn exit’s...
Pros:
- Great Grip
- Good Acceleration
- Great Rotation
- Good use of wing


Cons:
- Oversteer on tight turn exits
My Score: 99/100

---------------------------------------------------------------
I'm really happy with this result, and confused how you got that time :scared: best I could do with this car was around 58.3xx seconds 👍. I knew the car had on oversteer problem but was fixed with my latest update... I set up the LSD too aggresive, but overall i was pleasantly surprised.
 
On to JC's results!

Tak's 04' Honda Integra Type R (DC5)

Lap time: 3:07.996

Sector 2: 34.450, Sector 3:58.924

The 1st car I tested (mainly because i wanted it over with) is Tak's ITR. Holy crap, it's slower than a stock one, and hell's it should be. With that much rear downforce, and less hp than a stock one with an oil change (not even broken in just buy one, and oil change it). This is what Honda owners typically do in real life and it saddens me. Stick a wing on things, a fart can, use stiff as hell springs, and lower it (before any of you say I hate Hondas, I am a proud eg6 owner). This car understeers pretty badly for its setup. On cold tires you get this slight oversteer, and you think that's a sign of good things to come, but as soon as you drive it more and more it understeers more until the front tires are thoroughly heated, then the understeer backs off a bit. Man is this car slow. It's barely 5kg lighter than stock too, with a stock box. Man once you get into 4th, you just get angry at the car, when you need to use 5th, you slap yourself. Overall it's not bad and is not that hard to drive, but considering the stock one drives better and is faster, I have no choice but to give it a low score. Overall I recommend a softer rear to start with and less downforce.

Pro's:
-It's easy-ish to drive on warm tires

Con's:
-Understeer
-the rear is extremely firm
-extremely slow on straights(only car slower so far was taks t200 126hp Suzuki and the awd and way heavier T200 Celica by 2mph.)
-If you shift even a tad early, your lap is over, especially if done uphill.

Verdict: 85 (stock ITR gets a 91)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

DigitalBaka's Volvo C30 R-Design '09

Time: 3:02.772

Sector 2: 33.241, Sector 3:58.341

On to the LOLvo! Man I love this thing. It's so fun to drive. Sure it has some understeer (anything with this much torque will), but boy is it fun. I was smiling the entire time. Just break early and shift up on downhills to avoid the understeer a bit.

Pros:
-AMAZING TRANS!
-Great suspension

Cons:
-TORQUE! (understeer)

Verdict 95/100.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rotary Junkie's Toyota 86 GT '12

Time: 3:00.785

Sector 2: 32.637, Sector 3: 57.916

This car loves to go fast. Too bad the L.S.D. says, "Screw Sonic, I don't like fast." It's still stupidly fast, but it has serious oversteer on exit. Many times I would be pumped up for a sector only to be slapped in the face by oversteer.

Pro's:
-Amazing trans
-suspension

Con's:
-Serious oversteer on exit.

Verdict: 98/100

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

fbccars924's Toyota Supra 3.0GT Turbo '88

Time: 3:04.876

Sector 2: 33.865 , Sector 3: 59.834

Is this a drift car(I actually drove it for a lap on comfort hards, and it wasn't bad)? Its a fun little car. It's kind of slow, but not bad.

Pro's:
-Very fun

Con's:
-It would make Jeremy clarkson very happy.

Verdict: 95/100

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

AudiMan2011's BMW Z4 3.0i '03

Time:3:02.226

Sector 2: 33.569, Sector 3: 59.026

Great car. I had a ton of fun in it. Only problem is mild understeer on entry and slight oversteer on exit.

Pro's:
-Suspension
-trans

Con's:
-slight understeer on entry
-slight oversteer on exit.

Verdict: 99/100

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Korza's S2k

Time: 3:00.945

Sector 2: 32.842, Sector 3: 57.955

Quite a fun car. It's serious though. Only faults are very slight but controllable oversteer. It also feels a tad stiff.

Pro's:
-Almost everything

Con's:
-Slight oversteer on exit, though rare and controllable
-a bit stiff

Verdict: 99/100

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hei's Soccermom special.

Verdict: 1000/100, I mean look aliens, now look back, 0/0. Yup.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solidsnake7735's Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IV GSR '96

Time: 3:02.799

Sector 2: 33.361, Sector 3: 58.366

This is quite the car. It is very well balanced, albeit a bit stiff. This car excels at this track. It handles its AYC quite nicely. I can't say much more about the legendary Evo IV. As long as you take it calmly, the car won't mess up on you. That's how well tuned, old 4wd's work in this game.

Pro's:
-Everything

Con's:
-A tad stiff

Verdict: 100/100

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

DCybertron's Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX GSR '05

Time: 3:00.646

Sector 2: 32.965, Sector 3: 57.572

There are a few typo's in this tune btw. 4th gear should be 1.185, as all the contestant did is switch the top speed to 149. So watch out for that, or you'll be confused. It's a bloody fast car. Though, it does feel a tad rushed. The AYC is a bit high and causes slight oversteer on some tight downhill corners, and a tad of understeer on throttle uphill. Other than that, marvelous tune, just needs some tiny adjustments.

Pro's:
-Almost everything

Con's
-AYC is a tad high

Verdict: 99/100

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Robrabbitman's Honda NSX Type-R ‘92

Time:2:58.629

Sector 2: 32.896 , Sector 3: 57.206

Holy crap this car was fun. It's horrible on cold tires, but once you get it going, it's so damn rewarding. I love this car, and if may I request, can I please have a copy sent to me. The slowest lap I ran was my 1st lap on cold tires which was a 3:01.223. Other than slight oversteer on exit when pushed, this car is perfect.

Pro's:
-Everything!

Con's:
-rare oversteer on exit (minor and doesn't bother car)

Verdict: 100/100

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

extreme car's Honda NSX Type R '92

Time: 2:59.336

Sector 2: 32.701,Sector 3:57.279

Man this car is quite fast but it oversteers waaaaayyyy tooooo muuuuuucchhh. Holy crap its a handful. I think it needs some accel work on the L.S.D.

Pro's:
-Great suspension
-Great trans

Con's:
-OVERSTEEEEER!

Verdict: 96/100

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

787bcgr's Honda NSX Type R '92

Time: 2:59.712

Sector 2: 32.721 ,Sector 3: 57.554

Fast car, great trans, slight oversteer. That sums it up lol. The L.S.D. seems a bit weak on exit if that's corrected, this car would get a 99 or maybe even a 100.

Pro's:
-Suspension
-Trans

Con's:
-Mild oversteer

Verdict: 97/100

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

ZedMan1993's Acura NSX '91

Time: 3:00.566

Sector 2: 33.447, Sector 3: 58.873

Well this one feels a bit slow compared to the other 3. It's also very stiff. I get lots of understeer mid corner. It's a nice base tune. With care, this could be a top notch tune. Just needs to be adjusted.

Pro's:
-great rotation
-no oversteer like the other 3

Cons:
-Understeer
-acceleration is slow.

Verdict: 96/100

You've found my secret transmission tuning technique!:nervous:
I'm not gonna lie, it was a little rushed.
 
I'm honestly very surprised that my car fared so well and that I managed to get it on-point. I took as much time as I possibly could trying to get the car spot-on and it looks like that work paid off.
 
I've been busy with work but have managed to test 4 of the 11 cars I have to test. I should have my results posted in a matter of days. What with 4th of July a few days away, I'm making no promises :lol: but rest assured I wont be late.

That being said, who will be the 3rd Tester to test my EVO? Since as a tester, I'm not allowed to rate my own ride.

Hei
Same, to test my Soccer mom special.

I'll test the testers cars like usual if you want.
 
Happy to have made a good impression so far. :dopey: I may toss out some FRs and drive a few of these myself...just for my own learning.
 
Too much throttle, Hei. Be just slightly gentle and it should fly.

Although, I don't know what I'm saying really. Apparently the tune is more difficult to drive than I thought, which means I must've adapted to the DS3 better than I should've. Here I was thinking it was not much different in terms of difficulty from the old tune, just faster... Yet the feedback seems to say otherwise.
 
I did modulate the throttle quite a bit, even with quick upshifting and downshifting, it would oversteer on exit. It seems your accel is a bit weak.
 
Damn my NSX is a bit slow. I'll be around next time with a new NSX and will hopefully tear the track! :D Thanks guys for testing my car.
 
:lol: I guess I should stick to Drift MK3's. two of three judges say it's a drift car. I think it comes down to the car itself as I took a stock one out and it was a stock drifter. If anyone does want to try my Drift specific Lava Orange MK3 just shoot me an FR or a message.

If you want, I'll put my JZA70 I tuned for TMax for you test if you want.
 
Yeah, I'll try her out. I think I got you on my PSN already. If not I'll add you here in a minute. I seem to not be very good at tuning touge MK3's

I'm on your friends list. I'll send you a message when I put it on share.
 
Hei
I believe I have a 450pp spec. I'll share it tomorrow. Though mine is a 1JZ.
Strangely enough I've tuned both and the 1jz has more of a tendency to slide to my thumbs

I'm on your friends list. I'll send you a message when I put it on share.

Ok, I'll probably be on for a minute tonight and I'll be on all morning tomorrow. My T400 is a MK3 and I prolly should atleast try to make a little more progress on it(:lol: I have a problem, First Viper's now MK3's)
 
My NSX was rushed in its tune, as I was packing up to move somewhere else. So I'm glad that it's getting good scores. I only tested in on Akina once when it was stock.
 
85 while other's are high? Talk about hating..there goes the same result like last class. Sheesh.

I differ about the score. That ITR is fast and controlable! Also it´s a very fun car to drive! I´m talking about the feeling on G27. Also, a good car to train with in the touge.
 
Fast? When its way behind every other car in the competition? It's running slower than half of the T200 entrants.
