Buy a TUNER car and copy the set up for a car with the same drive train. eg: Get an AMUSE S200R1 copy suspension settings and use it on any FR car. In most cases it works like a dream.

You can tweak it a bit. I soften the bound and rebound and may lower ride hight. You can use all the settings from the Tuner Car for same hp cars. Try it, you will like it. Good Luck! 👍
 
Well, although this may be a nice thought, many of the feilds that are on the tuner cars are all set to default settings as well, i.e. bound/rebound, toe, camber, stabilizer, TCS, ASMs, ride height, LSD... So, realy, when you look at it this way, I'm affraid that this just won't work on many cars, if any... You also have to look at things like the car's weight, natural weight transfer, body roll and so on. All of these factors just won't cut it, if all you do is change the spring rates for these cars... Maybe I'm wrong, but I just can't see it working very well, if at all... There are no short cuts to setting up a car... The closest you'll come is getting a set up for say a Skyline Mspec Nur, and applying it to a Skyline Vspec Nur, or some other kind of comparison, like a Bathurts RX7 and a Spirit RX7... but even then, odds are that the tune will still work better on one then the other... Using an untuned "tuner" car's settings, as a base set up for another car like it, just won't work very well... I just don't want this going around and then having to explain it over and over again... Take your time, learn to tune and have fun... It'll take a bit of time, but I can assure you that you'll get more out of tuning your own cars, then any other alternative will bring you... Later, Ed...
 
It works on most cars, you may want to tweak here and there but it works. Just try it! I am at 100%, 95,000+ A spec points on a 100% win ratio. I know it works, I use it to get many 200 point races. This is just to help the new guy and the old guys for that matter. For hardcore guys, your own set up is key. Every one has there own driving style and must fine tune. Why do team drivers with the same cars have different lap times?
