Nice teaser .View attachment 605655
Plenty of power coming on skinny wheels.. 1k+ horses running flat 7 on Nordschleife on Sports Soft.
Wheel effect depends on setup, i.e. If it's tuned on "middle" rims from three set of rims then first and last are changing grip more to front or more to rear, depends your camber values, if not equal F/R camber. Difference between rims on same type, different color is different ET value, offset.How does the choice of wheels affect the setup? You mentioned the colours, and what about the models? I mean, in real life we know what happens when we change the wheels for bigger ones, but what happens in GT6?

Then there is different weight rim sets, low power/torque cars will benefit on lighter, higher power cars need more precise setup for them, racing on stock low power cars it's crucial to get light rims, best cases seen on online is nearly 10kmh faster straight speeds on Nurb GP/x track just by lighter rims.
Bigger ones stiffen bouncing of tires, good if setup is made or capable for it, also small speed differences. Good setup this means more traction on flat track, including cornering, but it may backfire on kerb hits and bumpy track, bad setup and you'll loose traction due extra stiffness. Same as real life.
Thanks, nice at they fit for you to, sorry for late answer on this part, was missing on earlier reply due GTPlanet errors, some SSL certificate error on here. (Hacker attack?)Hello OdeFinn!
I'm a new customer in your garage. I set up Jay Leno's Oldsmobile Toronado '66 and the RX-7 Spirit R Type A FD '02. Both awesome.
Thanks for answering. I agree with you about wheel size effect in a well seted suspension. Just in doubt if PD provide us with such a simulator level in offset and weight rims. But I like the way you think about it, with meticulous attention to details.
Most of my setups work just fine with ABS and even R-series tires, don't directly remember did I test FD with high grade compounds, did you alter car height as 1mm per tire grade or just running on 80mm? I would test 1mm drop per grade, so running RH with 77mm or RS and 75mm. Also some tunes work better on ABS use if adding 1mm ride height. So testing 78mm for RH and 76mm RS could be good idea.Have tested the RX-7 Spirit R Type A FD '02 in Mid Field, my favorite track and where I feel confortable to push the limits. Just changed to race brakes as the original overheated at 310km, entering the first curve. With +1 wheels best lap 1:05.7xx. With +2 wheels 1:05.5xx. Just to let you know. After testing returned to original set in respect the well setuped car and better looks. Thanks mate.
Edit: Using DS3 and race tires. All assist. off exept ABS1

German quality fridge, turns like fridge door and looks like it too.."Deutsche fridge" . Looks like it could be fun 👍.

Good car for practising extremely well gripped 4wd driving.
Start your learn curve from stock clutch and no carbon propeller shaft with rear camber -2.0°, then install better clutches and with and without carbon on each, finally when you manage this try to drop rear camber -1.4° and play more. It is track depended which rear camber is is best, also your driving technique makes lot, if you're smooth your benefits are from other and if harsh then other.
Gearbox is just example for tracks like Laguna Seca or Streets of Willow and Tsukuba, online(normal wear, all real) Laguna is 1:41 driven by me, or 1:40 by others, offline SoW 1:21.
"Amazing how early you can go on throttle" - from guy who did 1:40 on Laguna online CS tires.
..Fun continues when putting better compound tires, just remember 1mm/grade, and if adding more power try several part combinations to get best torque/power to suit car, bad one and it might come understeery one.

I'm sharing this information about Porsche 991 GT3 Cup, thought that it may be useful for some who have AC. I used this for LFS 991 GT3 Cup mod, and it works well on LFS.
@LeGeNd-1 , @ChauMing803 , @azidahaka , @gt6champnk69 , @ALB123 and some others who have AC may find this useful for the Porsche 991 GT3 Cup car

Wheel alignment
Precise wheel alignment is essential for achieving the optimum performance.
Porsche Motorsport recommends these steps below
The conditions while driving have to be produced as far as possible under static conditions.
The following measures have proven to be extremely helpful :
• Place driver’s compensation weight on the driver’s seat
• Set air pressure to 2.0 bar (29 psi)
• Fill the tank with 50 % of the fuel quantity necessary for the race/practice
The following work order is highly recommended when performing a complete alignment:
1. Unhook the anti-roll bars
2. Preset vehicle height
3. Rear axle: set the camber first, then the toe
4. Front axle: set the camber first, then the toe
5. Set vehicle height and wheel loads
6. Wheel loads are set by changing the vehicle height; you should try to reach the
lowest possible wheel load deviation per axle (left to right / cross weight)
7. Hook up the anti-roll bars without tension
For ride height measurement/setup, the vehicle must be on a flat surface.
Trivia :
The speed area of ICD ( PI Cosworth ) rev/shift light LED is divided into three sections:
• Green from 1,500 to 7,000 rpm
• Yellow from 7,000 to 8,500 rpm
• Red from 8,500 to 10,000 rpm
The left and right top most LED light besides the main ICD screen functions as front wheel lock indicator, a potential lock up will be displayed as flashing LED light. Left LED for left wheel and right LED for right wheel.
