Ultimate Nissan Fairlady Z (Z34) '08 Drift Setup!

[maveric25]

Only by looking at this I see a problem, you're front height is lower than the back which creates understeer which is the opposite of what you want for drifting. The more understeer the car has, the harder it is to get the car sideways & get more angle.

On a wheel its different. The Car becomes more controllable.

Hmmm..... I know people that use wheels that prefer lower back for less understeer.

Of course I recognize it. I still use it but with altered ride heights..

This is a lie I am the guy with the real "ultimate Z34 setup"

 

[Reddee]

I'm goin to try these setups . I have been drifting my wheel 8 week now and I'm finally getting good. I have been practicing with my fair lady a lot. I'll let you know how I get on and will post my setups for ds3 and wheel thanks.

New Record Anybody?

It was dead for 7+ months and suddenly has come alive.

mmmm... not really. I much rather lower rear because i don't need to be as aggressive with the wheel. Most of the setups i've seen on wheel are lower in the back.

Also the force feedback on 3 suggests that you need to be a little more aggressive than usual. I would give my setup but it was tuned by Ant and i'm not sure how he'd feel about that.

PS: I suggest higher ffb if you wanna be smoother. (try 5 then move up to 8 or 10)
