Thanks for sharing your ideas, tests and tunes with us. Your Quicktunes always gave me good starting point to fit my personal needs.
Do you already have a clue about the MR, 4x4 etc drivetrains?

I do have some thoughts for these drive trains for 2.09 but just need time to get them posted.

And thanks for stopping in the garage by the way.

Acura NSX RM '91
320hp, 1060kg, 500PP
DS3, FPS Freek stick extenders, ABS 1, all other aids off.

This tune was built for the FITT Race Car Tuner Challenge, 500PP division at Spa. With only five gears, I did tune this to use 1st gear in the slowest corners, unlike my normal tunes which see 1st gear as only useful for loading the car onto the trailer. I don't know if this car has enough power to win, but it should be one of the more enjoyable rides in the competition.

Enjoy.

Sir what about the Aero Kits ( Aerodynamics ) number .

Ford GT LM Spec II Test Car by Gran Turismo
621hp, 1200kg, 625PP
DS3, FPS Freek stick extenders, ABS 1, all other aids off.

This tune was built for the FITT Race Car Tuner Challenge, 625PP division at Monza. I did break my own gearbox rules again with this car. First gear is useful to get through the first set of esses. I really like this tune. I think this may be able to give the Zonda Race Car a run, if the tune matches up well with the tester driving styles.

Enjoy.

This tune was built at 625PP for Monza. This wasn't quite as fast as my final entry into the FITT Race Car Challenge, but the car is super fun to drive and has earned a spot in the garage.

This tune was built for the 580PP La Festa Cavallino Seasonal event. The Enzo is a tricky car. This tune is far more easy to drive than stock, but I just can't get it perfected. I did win the Nurburgring GP/D track with this tune, but I think I would rather drive a 430 Scuderia.

Can someone tell me where in settings to alter final drive and top speed?

I need to do these before adjusting transmission but can't see where to do it.

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Garage looks nice Hami. You really did great with the new look.

 

[Ronald6]

The Ferrari Enzo '02 looks, well, just wrong in Honda Lime Green Metallic. I painted the custom wheels the stock Ferrari Rubino Micalizzato.

With your seasonal Enzo tune I earned 1.7+ million @ 520pp using only engine limiting on Cape Ring Periphery.

Honda Civic Type R (EK) '97
215hp, 1050kg, 415PP

Event: Seasonal 415PP Honda Civic Competition

Track: Tsukuba Circuit and Eifel (Kart) 108A

Tuned in seasonal event using Logitech G27 wheel with Nixim brake pedal mod
Wheel settings: simulation, power assist off, FFB 1
Driving aids: ABS 1, grip reduction real

This tune feels like it is 90% of the way there. It still understeers - way better than stock - and better than the Civic posted above. I do get the front tires to the red glowing state in some of the corners. This tune still needs some work.

How do you achieve a 50/50 weight balance without adding and/or moving weight? On my end, it's 60/40. Everything else matches 100%. I'm new to the Tuning scene, but I'm catching on quickly, for the most part.

 

[Motor City Hami]

Garage looks nice Hami. You really did great with the new look.

Thanks for the suggestion. I want to keep adding to the testing area on an ongoing basis. Maybe capture the current community discussion on transmissions and LSDs.

With your seasonal Enzo tune I earned 1.7+ million @ 520pp using only engine limiting on Cape Ring Periphery.

I am 90% happy with the tune. And I didn't paint mine green either. Stuck with a Ferrari red. New photo posted with tune.

Tried this on Clubman Reverse, still 4th and nine seconds behind.

You should be leading by 4 seconds with this tune.

Just a typo. Must have copied it from another post and neglected to change it. 60/40 is where this Honda is.

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Yes, I think that would be a very good idea also as those are some very good and informative discussions. Alot can be learned from them. Keep up the good work Hami.

Hi MC! Thank you for the Chevrolet (mini) collection. 👍

My only problem is that my "Favorites" has reached (again), the maximum number of cars allowed.

Edit: I've forgot to mention the beautiful photos you attache to your tunes. 👍

 

[moparisgod]

I was directed here by krenkme, and how much did you pay him to do THIS for you?

J/K. I really like your guides and your layouts are very orginized. When I get back home I will be using some of your tunes. Looks very good 👍

Wow, looks like your getting quite the following now, lol. Hami for President??

I wouldn't have 99% of GT5 complete without this garage.. Thanks for all the tunes and guides.

I am just angling to become an honorary Clueless tuner. By far, the most fun tuning garage on GTP.

Happy with my 2.09 tuning... doing well in FITT Tuner Challenges... yet still snubbed at the Weekly Oscars.

Jason - that's awesome. It seems that every time I stop by the garage there are 3 or 4 people looking around. You're a silent group, but I do sometimes get reports back that someone used a tune or the guide to win a racing series. Thank you for the kind comments.

 

[DiersZee1]

Motor City Hami, just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to explain things. It has been the only useful tuning thread that I have found for all types of Drives

 

[GTPMcBride]

Great tunes the only problem i have is reducing the heat in my FF cars, ive lowered my lsd to 6/8/5 but am still blowing up the fronts, i have a good knowledge about tunning an how things work from roll bars shifting the weight etc but still cant fix the fronts.. I am using Racing Hard 315bhp 1100kg Atenza Sport 25z with no aids no abs an the wheel am using is DFGT it would be great if you could help...

I am using Racing Hard 315bhp 1100kg Atenza Sport 25z with no aids no abs an the wheel am using is DFGT it would be great if you could help...

I have a good knowledge of real world tuning too, but not all of it applies to GT5. FF cars are odd and not consistent across all FFs. I think PD may have built the physics model for FR, MR and RR then tried to adapt it to FF and 4WD. If you think about it, Kaz races rear wheel drive cars and knows the feel of those drive trains very well. Something got lost in the translation to FF and 4wd and really illogical settings can sometimes help.

It makes no sense in the world, but for about 1/3 of the FFs that I have tuned, they respond better to much higher front springs/dampers than rear. This is completely backward from real life and the in-game description, but it does work on some cars. Try really high front springs, like 14 and damper ext 9 or 10 with compression between 3 and 5. For the rear, try soft springs, under 4 and damper ext/compression both at 5.

Camber is also a place to test. Try 2.0 2.5, 3.0 and 3.5 on the front. There tends to be a sweet spot on each car. With spec 2.09, I have been seeing 2.7 to 3.2 work well. For the rear on the FF, cambers at 0.0, 0.5, 1.0 seem to help reduce rear grip.

ARBs likd 1/7 or 2/6 or 3/5.

 

[GTPMcBride]

Yeah its a shame about these FF cars they produce some great racing.. Settings are all backward! But hey all try it with anger lol... Cheers for the help

 

[GTPMcBride]

Yeah you want the rear to rotate to produce less drag an lets the front turn in easier with little steering lock creating less pressure on fronts i think lol.. Am an avid tunner in this game as am part of a website that has great racers, we are always testing trying to get that little advantage, i have created 12 different manufactures that are 0.200 of each other at 315bhp ranging from 1270kg to 1310kg, with horses for courses its going to be exciting along with race marshalls during quali an race, with heavy damage an no abs its as close as to real apart from the racing hard tires which is unrealistic grip, but the racing hard produces best racing.. Yeah well thats what i do,try to create the most realistic close racing

 

[GTPMcBride]

Am still blowing up the fronts lol, trial an error they say...
