Tuner Notes
This car is unbelievably balanced. Even as a road car it feels like driving the old R32 GT-R racecars. The car accelerates and corners nicely, like a typical 4WD sportscar. Overall, the performance of this R32 GT-R is balanced at an above average level. Although it doesn't stand out in any aspect, it fares well anywhere. Great car for most 550PP events and races.

Tuner Notes
I was in a bit of a dilemma when tuning this car. Either add turbo and some power limiting to give some extra torque, or stay NA and keep the gentle powerband. Chose the latter. The car's also on the lighter side so it's a joy around corners. A few tweaks to the suspension and this car is also good around bumps, not too soft but not too hard. It's a good car for sprint races around street circuits.

Tuner Notes
This car understeered heavily when I first started working on it. The LSD was the magic part to work with and I just had to give the diff a strong preload to emphasize the open settings on acceleration. Like other FF cars, you really have to be gentle on the throttle on corner exit, especially on this one. Just do that, and the car actually handles pretty nicely, even around fast turns.

Tuner Notes
The Aya Brera (Parasite Eve reference, yay!), a car I never really expected to be a yokozuna. The car's even heavier than a Toyota Supra RZ, which is already my standard for a heavyweight sports car. If any, the power really makes up for everything the weight does against the handling. On tight tracks, this car's a real handful, but on the faster street circuits like SSR5, you might just run away with all that power. On the flip side, the weight pushes the car down enough to give you a lot of cornering grip, but any kind of hard braking needs to be done from way early.

Hi JP,
Just wanted to congratulate you on the opening of your new garage. I'm really liking the look & you've rolled out these tunes pretty quickly. I'm also glad to see you tune with a DS3 & that your preferred circuit is the Nordschleife. If a car handles there, it'll handle anywhere.
Lastly, I do hope you add your tunes to the Tune Finder. This will ensure your tunes are exposed to everyone & not just those that visit your garage.
Welcome & good luck :) 👍

Thanks for the welcome. The tune finder? I wasn't actually aware of that before, so I have no idea how to get started on that, but the idea sounds nice. :)

Tuner Notes
This car is a real beast, it feels like an FR NSX. The car turns so quickly and has a lot of power. It's very easy to drive, too, it won't take much time to get used to how the car handles. The car doesn't reward over-aggressiveness though, so make sure to be smooth around the Nurburgring with this car. It's a very competitive car and more so around the Nordschleife.

Tuner Notes
This lightweight turbo FF has good potential. Wheelspin is manageable and the car is very agile through bends, though you'd still have to be careful pushing the car along the fast parts of the Nordschleife, as the car has a tendency to understeer on fast corners. Around the Nurburgring, this Starlet definitely rivals other lightweight FF sports cars.

Tuner Notes
I'll admit, I couldn't really resist this classic 4WD rally car. The car handles well, a little dull compared to the Lancer Evolution that came after this car, but turn-in is still decent while cornering stability is pretty much good. The only problem I really have is the power band, as the torque peaks at a very low range and the crossover point is at a low point, and that's already with a High RPM turbo...so the car feels really heavy on the straights.

Tuner Notes
Toyota midships are real beasts of oversteer. So much so that this MR-S felt like the S2000, only worse. The rear end is so sensitive that I actually had to put a wing just to get some downforce. Still, be very careful on turn in, steer as gently as you can because the rear end is just so sensitive, the wing just helps on the faster turns, but on slower corners, you really have to be careful here.

I'm loving that you test at the Nordschleife. Would you consider posting a lap time to aim for when you post cars tested & developed there?
Also, I notice that this MR-S has a wing fitted. Can you advise us on what height & width for the wing as you haven't listed those settings.
Either way, it looks like a real rocket of a car. Toyota should've released a turbo version of this car. In stock form, the chassis handles really well and is certainly capable of using more power.

Oh right, knew I missed something. Updated the MR-S. Thanks! Although to be honest, the car was a real pain because it was very wild on SH but I didn't want to switch to better tires so it was pretty challenging to make it work.

Posting the lap time sounds good, I'll try getting around to making laps around these cars.

Personally, I like the SH tyres and rarely fit anything better to my road cars. Although not perfect, I feel they offer the same grip level as the best R compound street legal tyres you can go out & buy for your road car.
Keep up the good work.

I also think the same, the only time I fit SS tires is 550PP and above, because the power 550PP cars make is too much for SH tires, which makes them somewhat undriveable unless it's 4WD.

The high horsepower cars on SH are what I call a challenge that offers a reward when it all comes together :mischievous:
Having said that, penalties apply for care free driving :scared:

Tuner Notes
Unlike the NA2 NSX Type R, this one was a real challenge to tune. The car is pretty rigid, so cornering felt like a racecar. You’ll have to wait until you’re midway through a long corner until you can go full throttle, and the grip will hold out just enough to get you out of the corner with plenty of speed. Braking’s also good too, but brake too deep and the rear’s bound to throw itself out.

Tuner Notes
Because I was testing for a small and tight track, this tune might not be that good on bigger tracks, though the Evo 9 tune is just for that. Torque distribution near 50:50 was a good choice, full throttle at the apex just gives so much exit speed. Ballast is added to even out the balance a little because 60:40 just understeered everywhere.

Tuner Notes
For bigger circuits, the tune of the Evo 9 is more on cornering stability. The car won’t turn on a dime because its balance leans to the front, but be patient enough to stay off the throttle until the car points directly towards the exit, then the car will go fast out of corners at full throttle. I also added some ballast because the Evo’s 60:40 weight distribution was just asking for understeer.

Tuner Notes
Compared to the Evo, the Impreza is much easier to work with because it’s not very front-heavy. The turn response is very quick and braking is also impressive. Shift at 8000rpm instead of going all the way to redline because there’s more torque at mid-range. On a long straight like the back straight at Motegi, shifting early easily gains two or three tenths over shifting at redline.

Tuner Notes
This GRB Impreza is a car that keeps a lot of traction on corners and on power. My biggest issue with this car was understeer, which was quite severe on a course like Suzuka East, where heavy lateral load quickly swings on both directions along the esses. Like the GDBC, shift at 8000rpm to make the most out of the mid-range torque.

You've got a great looking garage here. Your new STIs and EVOs look quite tempting. 30 new tunes in less than a month is nothing short of impressive. Nice job, keep em coming!
Click to expand...

Thanks a lot! Nice to have a FITT event winner coming by. The first 6 or 7 tunes were ones that I have here were ones I've done before starting this garage, all I had to do was make them work better on their test track.

As for the Evos and STIs, I particularly had trouble with the Evos since they were so front heavy, it took me quite a while to get them handling better. In comparison, the STis were much better, but the GRB was a bit of a handful at first. I loved how all these cars turned out, though, 4WD tuning is really harder than it seems.
