I think he was trying to explain some D&D style turn based RPG using GT as a base, thats what i understood, that and he said something abt comparing the speed of a 92 NSX-R to a 1992 internet connection , a jest mayhaps?

Kool stuff man.

I'm an 11 year owner of an EG6. K-series now & got my game settings matching the real car as close as possible. PD did a great job.

Good read.👍

Thanks a lot man. I love the EG6 and I am super jealous you have a K series in the engine bay :drool: You said you have the specs matching closely to your real car? That is awesome same for my type R EG6 all you have to do is play with the power limiter and once you find the right combination you use it as the base. I would love for you to put it online so I could test drive it if you don't mind. You should give my league a try being a Honda fan I think you would love it!

Thanks man. Love this hondas. Those type-R engines are fun on the light EG6 chassis.

I could post them later. But engine power limit does not apply last year it did on the motor 274whp 202wtq I believe for GT5 BHP numbers gotta add 15% for transmission / drivetrain loss. So it would be around 315bhp 232btq. Now in the process of intalling a supercharger on a vtec killer engine looking at 420whp 290wtq with a power limiter by gear. This supercharger makes boost linear so the power band is like allmotor.

I got the suspension perfect & the 6 gear ratios down to the bone. Had to use a gear tire calculator to match the real ratios with the GT5 since it uses factory wheels & tires diameters.

I could post settings probably tomorrow. Maybe tonight.

You could put me down. But trying to reach level 40 after the ps3 hdd failed on me at level 34 & lost everything. So started from zero again, but now at 39 & GT academy just started. I'd try to make it.

Thanks man. I'm posting them from the phone now. If anything I'll fix the post from the pc later on.

The only thing I don't know if it is accurate is weight cause last time I put it on the scale had a B20vtec & weighted 2120lbs (961kg) after the K-series I gutted it more & haven't weighted it.

Suspenssion fully customizable kit:

Height: F -25 R -19
Spring rate: F 10 R 12
Damper both: F 8 R 8
swaybars: F 5 R 7
camber: F -2.4 R -1.5
Toe: F 0.0 R 0.20

Gears:
1st: 3.123
2nd: 2.129
3rd: 1.496
4th: 1.140
5th: 0.915
6th: 0.725
FND 4.400
Top speed 290 mph

LSd adjustable. got it at default since don't know the wavetrac settings

Clutch twin disc
Flywheel semy racing but may need to change to racing

Weight reduction stage2, 2063lbs (936kg)

to reach my real life power as close as possible used this settings:

Engine stage3
ECU tuning
Sports intake manifold
Racing filter
Sports exhaust manifold
Catalytic sports
Titanium exhaust
That would put it at 275bhp so it is for the n/a engine.
My auto-x engine makes about 200whp 165wtq so that's easier to match
For the supercharger I'll match it by adding a stage 2 turbo because of the power band delivery !

Brakes is tricky ! Cause I got 6pistons calipers up front with 11.78" rotors, GSR rear disc with hawk hp pads with the pedal lowered & 1" master cylider from an 91 integra DA
so F 4 R 2 feels like real or F 3 R 1 brake balace.

Tires are toyo R888 225/45/15 on 15x8 wheels. so sports soft or racing hard may do ! Since PD always used the factory si wheel & tire size 195/55/15 so how do I compensate the for these wider tires? & wheels?

Wonderful! Yes your brakes will equal 3/1 and your tires would be Sport Soft for the fact of your tires are wider than stock. Toyo R888 are also semi slick tires in PGTR and the fact you have wider than stock makes you eligible for sport soft. If you had R888 with the stock tire size you would have to have Sports Hard. Did you actually weigh your car? I would like to know this. Let me know what color your car is also, please put it online so I can test drive it. You are eligible for this car In PGTR. Good luck buddy glad you will be apart of this. You will have one of the meanest Civics in PGTR. 👍

I did weight it but years ago. When it had a b20vtec it weighted 2120lbs but I removed more weight while installing this engine so I don't know how much more it dropped or if the weight went up due to swaybars. It may have gone up since before I had a carbon fiber hood & now the factory metal hood is installed. I do have a kevlar seat that lazy me haven't installed. So that should drop 20lbs
I'd have to weight the car again.

the real car is Red. But I haven't found it in that color in the game. So it's black on GT5. I could paint it 💡

LoL no doubt I think your weight might be right however I will recheck for you. As for paint yes I would love for you to have it your real color in real life just try to get it as close as possible to your real life paint.

What do you mean by put it online? On my GT5 online share ! If that's what you mean, then I just shared it.

Yes thank you sir. 👍 Just drove it!... Oh my your bubble is so fast the K series is amazing!

Keeps it realistic right I love GT5 with ABS off. I'm glad you could drive it with the 4/2 brake balance shows me you have some skill. :sly: I cant wait to get started I am just adding all the information now If you have buddies who can drive clean and mature with ABS off please tell them to join. We have to get online together and race soon!
 
I've got 2 friends that drive clean but they play with the controller so it's hard for them to to keep up with all aids off. once they get a wheel surely they could drive without abs.

I finally got the factory red for my EG6 :)

Nice and they can join still. I play sometimes with my controllers, and you will see that PGTR is not all about speed. :sly: Their will be events where you have to do special things in order to get money and prizes.
 
So is there a race schedule?

Also, if the car has a TCS or ASM system, does that mean we have to turn it on in GT5? Or since the car may give you the option of shutting it off, can we drive without it?

I like your dedication to realism, I just really can't drive with ASM or especially TCS on.

I love the tire selection too, it's really cool that you have figured out that most of the cars in GT5 shouldn't come with sports hard tires. Have you done any skid pad comparisons for race cars?

Exactly just as in real life you can turn it off on depending on your skills and mood! In pro events Assist are not allowed. But to get into pro events you have to show what it takes By obtaining pro license! I am still under construction with this, but hit me up on the PSN. A few members and I do mock up races all the time please come join us!

This is the Vette ZR-1 challenge I had, only family participated though I was a great experience

Horsepower:638 HP@ 6,500 rpm
Torque:604 ft lb
Drivetrain:FR
Weight:3,324

Chevrolet Corvette Regulations
Transmission: Manual
Tires: Comfort Soft
Brake Bias: 4/F 2/R
Driving Assist: Active Handling Stability = (ASM ON)(ABS 2)(TCS 2):Competitive Driving Mode = ( TCS OFF) (*ASM ON*) (ABS 1) "Both can be turned On and Off" * If AHS is turned off ASM will be off also.*

Active Handling System and Competitive driving are Assist Chevrolet uses to keep the car stable during hard driving conditions. In PGTR/GT5 they would be equal to the assist, ASM, TSC, ABS.

Event Regulations
-All vehicles must be stock
-No mic unless PGTR Rep
-No Pit entry Once damaged, car stays damage.
-More than 2 tires off the track will result in an invalid lap
-Times are only official once given notice through a PM
-Times are only official once the driver puts their car online immediately for inspection
-No Skid Recovery
-No Active steering
-No driving line
-Full damage
-Grip Reduction on Wet Track/Track Edge track conditions
-Tire Wear and Fuel Consumption On

Track Day Regulations

This track day will start as a Time attack ending with a 3 lap race. Drivers are expected to drive clean and safe. This track day will be held in the "start race" format, there will be a total of 9 laps. During the event drivers are expected to switch between three driving assist modes Competitive Driving ON AHS ON= (ASM ON TCS OFF ABS 2) Competitive Drive On AHS OFF= ( ASM OFF TCS OFF ABS 1) Competitive Driving OFF AHS OFF = (ASM OFF TCS OFF ABS OFF)

Free Run will determine the grid order you will have to drive with AHS ON= (ASM ON) (TCS 2) (ABS 2) Once your three laps are done drivers must exit race put the ZR1 In Competitive Drive and turn off the AHS and return to the pits.

Lap:1-2 Time Attack Competitive Drive On AHS OFF= ( ASM OFF TCS OFF ABS 1)
Lap:3 Cool down "60 mph max, switch assist"/Restart Time attack "at last Hairpin"
Lap:4-5 Time Attack Competitive Driving OFF AHS OFF= (ASM OFF TCS OFF ABS OFF)
Lap:6 Cool down "60 mph max switch assist"/Race starts at starting grid same position as Time Attack Lap 1-2
Lap:7-9 Chevrolet ZR1 race Competitive Drive On AHS OFF= (ASM OFF TCS OFF ABS 1)


If a driver fails to stay on the track he or she must give any drivers behind them clear space to pass. If a driver damages their vehicle they must find a wide space off the track until the race is over. If a driver is found cheating they are automatically disqualified.

I did this with my family because I had no souls to join on the Planet. :lol: It was fun as hell though to see them duke it out.
