For you, you bet. Great reading in the Tuner wars 👍 I do hope you keep up the great writing. I really, REALLY enjoyed reading it. 👍👍👍👍

Now as for the Alpine. Full tune, or pp level, or tire resrictions?

oh, and someone wants to say hi...

GOOD GOD!(Dives behind couch) I'VE GOT A PLATE OF GRITS AND CORN BREAD WAITING FOR YOU, YOU ABOMINABLE BESTIE!
(stands up, tidies self up)
Now then, lets go with SH tires and 500pp (or as close too but not over) as possible, and handling sorted enough that even one of my buffoons could drive it. Good luck!

Alpine A3110? I've got one tuned for 450PP, I think. Drives quite nicely provided you remember to keep some degree of throttle on at all times. Up for another fight, Krenkme? <--- my phone is learning your username!

I could get close to 500pp by putting on a ironing board on the back 450pp seems to be a good option. Would that be okay?

I'm not sure that's good

Well, I always seem to lose (Pandas, Trucks, Alfas ), but... lets see what comes of the CotW. But I will for sure be building this car, so feel free to start and we'll see what happens

Well i have been looking for a 400pp to replace my awful '91 miata. That wouldn't water it down too much would it?

i do have a totally untouched one i could send you at some point in the next couple days

At 400pp you might not get all the car has to offer, but It is very doable <---- not sure that's a word.
I'll have to check with the bird.

I only have the one, and to take it down to 400pp I would have to limit the power, and I HATE doing that.

So really, it is your request. 450pp is the best option for this car (just because I don't like the rear wing). Close to 500pp, like you first said will give you better handling. And 400pp I'd need a new car . Your choice. I'm happy to do which ever you'd like.... have i told you how great your "reviews" were for the tuner wars? I'm going back now to read them again before I go to bed. Great Job 👍

450pp and sports softs it is then. that car is too purrdy to put a wing on and i too hate the power limiter.

The date was January 2nd, 2012. Final score Oregon 45 - Wisconsin 38. One happy Outlaw, one depressed Idiot.

Now we never made an official bet, but I did tell Mr. Wallbanger that, if the Badgers were to lose, I would tune a...Ford. . So I picked one that I don't mind looking at, painted it in Oregon Duck colors, and set off to tune it. And here it is.

One of the most easy cars to drive. Peak torque comes at a weird point so manual transmission may work better, but I'm too old to find out for sure.

Well Mr. Wallbanger, I hope you enjoy your Ford , and I'll get you next time



*Car will be sent to you shortly*
-Edit - *Sent it*

Thanks for the "Duck"!👍👍

Hopefully its fast enough to keep outrunning those badgers.

What's wrong with Fords? I've never got this joke&#8230;is it just an American thing like STi vs Evo?

It's called brand loyalty. Some guys are Mopar fans and hate Fords and GMs, others go the other way. Some of us though enjoy great cars regardless of manufacturer.👍👍

For me it is a personal thing. Long story short, I was in the back seat of a Ford when my two friends were in the front. Driver lost control, flipped the car crushing the passengers neck paralyzing him. He won a law suit against Ford for "bad safety design " in the amount of 15 million dollars and he was the best man in my wedding.


Oh and there UGLY!!!

So that's why for me.

Doesn't matter. It's a Ford, it's a proper looker, you are wrong.

And the GT40 was hardly ugly a car either.

Meh. If you like that thing it's fine. But don't forget the Pinto, Maverick, Taurus, Raptor, ect.

At least they corrected those mistakes fairly quickly unlike the eternity of hell Chrysler subjected us to with the K car...

Odd how Chrysler spent 50years doing their best to kill off Plymouth the only division that showed real creativity then when they succeeded only survived because they managed to allow some real designer to restile the trucks and produce a couple cars like the 300 and the Charger. They even tried to screw up with the Charger dragging their feet on giving us the 2door Challenger.

Then again not every company can produce a rolling piece of Art Deco like the Edsel...

Compared to what? The Dodge Charger which is…enormous and slow for a car with a 7 litre V8, that weird one with the pinched nose and all that, vs Ford and the Model A, the Model B and that lot, which were the home to all the hot rod boys.



Anyway, enough of this petty bickering, I'm ready when you are with the Alalalalalalalpines.

Agreed. I have my personal reasons for not liking Ford much, and I find most of them ugly, but that's my opinion. The "Duck" 1 looks good though.

My 450pp Alpine is ready, but I'm not. Will not be able to get back on the PS3 for quite some time. I'll let you know when though.

You know what they say about men that drive big cars

F'd over rebuilt Dodge

Okay, double post on purpose. (Might be triple ).
We all know by now why I dislike Ford, but to each there own. It has a lasting effect on me and calling them ugly (they are) was to have fun with it.
Dodge (Mopar) > anything

That said, new tune soon (while I sit through ballet ).

While trying to find what everyone likes here at GTP, I found that the NSX has a love/hate thing going on. So to find out what all this is about, I searched my garage and found a Yellow pancake sitting in the corner gathering dust. Polished it up, put some parts on it, and set to the track. This is what I came up with.

It is easy to drive, but is it worth all the hype?... maybe. I enjoyed my time in the car, and if you need a out there NSX tune, this could be the one... I'm just unsure what all the buzz is about

Because you got the wrong one.

It's the Type R '02 everyone is hyped about.

SShhhhhhh... I know that

So Clueless Tunes made it over 100 tunes, and for that we asked someone for a request. A timid man, seeming to suffer from Ornithophobia, asked if we could tune a Rustbucket French Beauty. The Alpine A310. So we accepted comandorando87s request (who also was brave enough to drive the "Black Widow" at the Tuner Wars , and is a GREAT wrighter). So here it is, the Clueless Tunes:

TUNER NOTES -
This car does have six gears, but sixth is more of an "Overdrive" gear. Most of the time you will never use it, unless you run on long straights. Other then that, a very easy drive, great for first time drivers of a Rear engine car.
