Hi guys and girl.

Long time fan here, I've noticed you have almost every great honda here.
But what about the CRX SiR, the old Integra type R (like the Acura) and prelude (older model, newer one looks a little ...bah).

I would like to request a Fully modified CRX on racing softs with no rear wing (spoiler) which would eat any other FF.
I would like to use it on tracks like De la sarthe (Without chicanes) etc.. and a quick change of the final drive for autumn ring etc.. with a little hard work and skill or not ;).

I understand you require a review for a request, But rather than just review any car I was wondering if there were any of your cars which you would like to be reviewed which has not had one thus far?

All the best people.

The Impreza road car is pretty sweet, had a fab time with it on Cote d'Azur the other day, I'm running at 543bhp so a little more than what yours is as standard, but the settings hold nicely with the extra power going through the wheels and to say the car is a beast would be an understatement, easy low 1:33's with minimal effort, was staying ahead of 700bhp cars such as Ferrari's, Merc SLS's, Lamborghini's and a Nissan GTR race car from the DLC (just :P), so quite an achievement from 560PP with a lack of straight line speed.

The Good;
- Cornering ability is fantastic
- The drive from corners is one of the best going
- The drive off the start line beats cars with 150+ bhp extra with ease
- Can utilize the handbreak nicely when wanted :P

The less good;
- Has a little understeer at times, usually on some exit's of tighter corners
- Straight line speed and acceleration lets her down a bit

The bad;
- The Titanium exhausts look like pea-shooters
- My Impreza is lime green with orange wheels >_>

Hi! Have an RKM branded e-cookie from RKM BiscuitSport for the "and girl" part, people still don't realise Dragonthing is part of RKM now. :lol:

It's really just a case of not getting around to them yet. Until I do get tunes for those out, I suggest using the EG Civic tune on the CRX, the Acura Integra tune on the Honda Integra and an Integra tune for the Prelude.

That can be done, but I can't guarantee it'll beat say, an Integra that's tuned up the exact same way. The ol' CRX has its limits after all.

I think the C63 would like a review, especially since it's been completely rebuilt. C63 AMG here. 👍

Mmmm, Love cookies soft and gooey still :drool:.. well enough of that.

And a very valued "part" she is indeed. (Had some amazing FUN in the 500RS, need to try the spec II update)

This is true but perhaps with a little hard work it could be a closer race 👍

Consider it done, I will post tommorow, I'll thrash the C63 all night to give you a decent review.

Keep up the good work RKM
 
Took out that Odyssey tune on the 500PP seasonal, and it's absolutely hilarious xD

Outpacing Elises, NSXs, it tore past everything the AI had on the straights and wasn't too shabby in the corners either. There's surprisingly little body roll and the car does feel planted all the time. A bit of understeer is to be expected, but otherwise it handles pretty well considering its... an MPV :lol:

I managed to clock a 1:45:xxx with it on Cape Ring Periphery, which isn't too bad for me on that track: the Sidewinder NSX got round in 1:40:xxx in comparison.

Still very much worth the build, even if its just for laughs :lol: Did I mention it looks evil too from the front? :lol
 
I'm finally going to request a tune.

GTP Username: korza493
PSN Name: kamikazi493
Car: Lexus GS300 Vertex Edition

I want my new toy to go as good as it looks. The gearbox needs to be tweaked, and suspension properly tuned. It has 710BHP with Racing soft tryes.

I can link my review to this post but its a bit hard go do it on my phone...

The Mercedes C63 AMG was a reasonable car to start of with, good power 450bhp at 6800RPM, good road holding capabilities and the ability to get sliding with ease. It was hard to fathom what exactly RKM could do to make this already good car better.

Well let me tell you they did and this is how, For starters sitting under the hood is the RKM Tuned naturally aspirated 6.2-litre V8 putting out around 534 bhp at 7400 RPM. It is fundamentally the same engine as in a standard C63 AMG but with a larger intake manifold and racing air filter that combine to improve overall acceleration and top speed.

Then they got in touch with weight watchers or slim-fast and got this bad boy to drop a few kilos (427kg dropped to be precise), added a fully customisable suspension kit and gear box both tweaked to within an inch of there lives to provide one of the most lean, responsive and agile German cars available within GT5.


That been said care is needed when driving this car with no driving aids as if you do not respect him then he will literally throw you off the track, However treat him with the respect he deserves and he will annihilate any guy in an M5 that thinks he's untouchable.

Are you asking me?

Nope, I was asking the person who requested a CRX tune a few posts back...damn quotes not working properly! Not that my tune is very good, turbo lag is hideous no matter what and it struggles to keep both front wheels on the tarmac the second you apply any power

It must be because of your phone. I heard the Xperia Ray can't cope with much, unlike my SII... :sly:

Who's going to take up my tune request? I want to send it tomorrow so I don't disturb my trade schedule too much...

I would agree with that if the Galaxy SII I had wasn't the biggest brick ever...still, it got me £350 pretty easily!

I'm loving mine! The screen is epic and feels really nice to hold.

Are you going to tune my GS300? I want to send it before I screw up my trade schedule.
