Hello everyone I have been working on my own tunes for cars for a while now and have gotten to the point where it is time to give back and show them off. I mainly do tunes for cars that no one else has done or cars where I hate all the tunes for and made my own. Basically if I have it in my garage, I have tested all the other tunes and guarantee mine is the best. Thank you for visiting and enjoy the tunes!


Usually all my tunes are for cars that have every part installed, including oil change for maximum hp, never rigidity improvement, and always use racing soft tires. Only use abs 1, all other aids are off. Also I use a controller to tune these and use mph. (unless stated otherwise in the description and parts)

*How to set transmissions:
ALWAYS set top speed first, than all the gears, than the final gear. Absolutely must set it this way or everything will get screwed up. Transmissions may need to be raised with final gear when racing at large or high speed tracks. Move it to the left for smaller tracks and quicker acceleration and to the right for bigger tracks where you need a higher top speed. The majority of the time it should be fine.

My cars are tuned in practice on various tracks. A-spec races against other cars on all various tracks too sometimes, so not just strictly for lap times. Although I do the same races over and over and try to improve the times I like doing it against other cars because that's how you would be racing when actually using the car.
All the photos are mine (unless stated) and if you would like to request a tune I may do it lol. Please comment I really like reading it and give feedback good or bad. Thanks.

Lexus IS F


When I first got this car I thought it was kinda dumb that it had 8 gears because most of the time you can't even get up to the 8th gear. Than after using it a bit and trying other tunes I disliked it even more. Than After quite a few races later and tons of different settings I have found it to be a pretty good car. I smoked the super gt cars and actually won in Sarth against the group C cars (3 laps) and it had that crazy fast Jag in it.

Easy on the gas when cornering and let it coast a bit around the apex than back on the gas.

SKYLINE GT-R V SPEC II (R32) 1994


Car handles well for a 4WD and has a decent amount of power. If your looking for a great old school looking car, this is definitely it. Just look at the size of that exhaust.

RVR verdict http://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showth...73#post5520873

"Shmo, why do you have to lie to us and say it's a FF? It's clearly a FR". That is what you will be saying when you drive this thing. It is super light with decent hp for a FF car and yet with a few tweaks here and there it becomes a beast. Did the Nurburgring GD/P super car race and killed them. It was like it was just going to the store. Do not just step on the gas when exiting corners or the wheels will spin up.

SPEC II edits: transmission, suspension, LSD, and brakes.

If you liked it before than you will love it now. Couple small changes to everything to make it more efficient with this new update and also I feel even better than before. Doesn't spin the tires up as much, brakes better, faster and more acceleration, just a big improvement while handling has less under/over steer. Best way to drive this is to still ease on the gas after a corner and usually let off completely and coast around the apex.

Suzuki CERVO SR 2007


The car is trash I can't lie to you lol, but I only use it for the seasonal K cup Eifel challenge and it does damn good there. It is just a little bit slower than the Daihatsu MIRA TR-XX Avanzato R '97, but I'm still rocking 0.55sec laps all day and its much more stable and easier to drive than the Daihatsu Mira.

Toyota PRIUS G 2009


Are you bored with racing expensive super cars? Well give this Prius a try and you will get a new found love for how sweet the super cars truly are because this car sucks! The acceleration is so slooow it is insane and fastest I got up to was around 110mph. The handling is pretty good for a FF car and in general, but it should be since your going so slow. It is kinda fun to put it into races where you think it has no shot and pass the other cars in the corners, but prepare to get passed on the straights.

... and yes, I still managed to catch some serious air in it non the less.

Audi TT Coupe 3.2 QUATTRO 2003


This car is almost impossible to get into trouble with. The handling is amazing, the speed is good, and the looks aren't bad either. Originally I had it much stiffer all around and it would skip here and there, but it still handled well so I figured it was good to go. I decided to try and get rid of the skipping while still keeping it stiff so I softened it a little and adjusted the ride height and instantly took a full second off my best lap. It's almost too perfect that it kills some of the fun.

Almost the same as R32 only a little more hp with only 2kg more weight. I know that dude in the background sure likes it.

Dodge Challenger R/T RM 1970


Sweet Jesus! This is the most perfect tune ever. If you are reading this you must try this tune. It will blow your mind. Literally nothing I can say will be able to tell you how good this is. A little game I like to play is go to any track and turn on the driving line and have a drink every time you stray away from it (note: you will never get drunk).

Dodge Challenger R/T RM 1970 (MORE POWER)


Almost like my other version, but with key changes to make it as perfect as it can be as well. Due to the added power and torque the LSD had to be changed drastically to compensate and minor suspension changes. This version can go faster, but watch when exiting corners not to slam on the gas or the tires will spin up. I set the LSD to stop the tires from spinning up as much as possible while still leaving a little bit of play in case you need the power to get around.

You have some nice looking tunes here.

Just wanted to let you know its not to late to submit an entry for the Million Credit FF Summer Shootout.
Might be a good way to show what you have and get some more exposure for your garage.

Keep up the good work and I'll be trying out a couple of your tunes when I have the time.

Dodge SRT-4 2003


This car was tuned for "Wallbanger's 1st annual million credit FF Summer Shootout!" and had to fit into the restrictions of 500pp and sports soft or less tires. The contest track is Grand Valley Speedway, so this car is specifically tuned for there, but should still be good at other tracks.

I chose this car because I know it is the best FF car out there and can be maxed out to more than 600hp so power wasn't going to be a problem. Under steer was a big issue with this car and even worse was the amount of torque produced made the tires spin up around any corner. After a series of test I have eliminated all under steer and have set the LSD to handle all of the torque. No extra turbos were added because they ruined the power band and caused all the problems of this car to get much worse while also skyrocketing the PP. I made a few mistake and am not the best driver, but I managed a 2:04.164. I'm sure I could get into 2:03's with more practice, but hopefully the testers are better drivers than me. Remember people the key is to ease on the gas after the corner or the tires will smoke and you don't want that because it will sow you down. Slow in fast out.

Lamborghini Murcielago LP 640 2009


This is a true 4WD car with a 40/60 split. Originally this car was insane like an Enzo with lots of under steer and over steer, but after a very long time (look how many miles) the beast has finally been tamed! I had so many problems with this car and got it to a point where it could drift with racing soft tires around any corner and it was actually faster doing that than slowing down and making the turn, but I couldn't release it being crazy because what would be the point? Anyone can tune a car and have it turn out insane. I also had problems with it racing on tracks like Daytona where it would just start bouncing around and the tinniest mistake and the car would spin out. I am pleased to say that all that is fixed now so you can race on any track with no worries of spinning out or the tires heating up, etc. Plus it is a very good car in general to drive, lots of fun with control.

Now reviewed by GTR Gran Turismo Reviews! (reviewed at only 830hp for some reason)

Amuse S2000 Street Version 2004


I now understand why people use S2000's as drift cars. This car was crazy, there was way too much over steer and tons of smoke from the rear wheels. After a little work and testing on lots of different tracks I am happy to say all the problems have been eliminated. The car has a 50/50 weight ratio and it really shows. It is very stable and takes turns perfectly while still being fun. The tall will still come out if you drove into a corner too fast, but just let off the gas and it straightens out right away. One thing to remember is to break before the turn. If you break on a turn there is a much greater chance the tall will step out, but not to the point where you will or come close to spinning out.

shmogt, could you tune a Lotus Evora '09 for me? Would like to keep the body completely stock but completely modded in every other way. Maybe a tune for say Grand Valley Speedway if possible? Thanks!
