I can vouch for this. The thing i hated with the sti, was that it was so balanced, so much, that turning was a pain, but with this set up, the car slides, when you go full throttle off a turn. And therfore it corners so great, suits my driving style, after a 1.36 opening lap, i banged in 1.34's, and took the skyline just before the corkscrew.

Someone please give me a tune that is actually gonna work, all the rest have way too much understeer, and i want a car that will turn, the subaru is sliding into all the corners, killing my speeds, once and a while i get it fixed, and then i change something and and it messes up. Ive tried all of them on GT plaent that i have found, one of them put me into the 1:37.xxx, but that isnt going to work for me, i can do 135-6s in arcade mode on the same track.
thanks in advance

i hate this race, so very very much. My very first attempt i got second. And i have tried almost every single tune on GTPlanet, and still remain in second. i cant even express how frustrated this race has made me. My best lap was a 1'34.8. My average laps have ranged from mid 1'35s, to low 1'37s with some of the more unsavory set-ups. I feel like i cant do anything more to this damn car. I just hate this event so much.

I used "RJ's" tune slightly modded; put a little more brake in the rear, and set toe and camber to zero, got the lead skyline coming into Rainey Corner, could have gotten him in the Middle of Rahal, but screwed up breaking point. this was by far the hardest for me as the STi didn't want to turn for me at all. Got the McLaren F1 GTR as my prize.

I figured out how to make the car turn really nice, it just doesnt do it like the skyline, in and out like a beauty, its like the snail trailing behind

was strugling pretty bad to catch the leader at the last corner, then I applied Sports ECU and Titanium exaust, and that seemed to help.
Aero: Useless, don't bother.
LSD 10/10/10 front and rear, transmission 250KM. and thats that.
Bought Itens:
Weight Reduction level 3
Chassis Reinforcement
ECU
Turbo level 3
Titanium Exaust
Titanium Manifold
Catalyst Converter
Adjusted the engine power.

I used mobius's setup. It handled similar to greycap but I could put down the power easier. I don't know how many tries I went at this race and FINALLY placed first. I was ready to sell GT5 if the car I received wasn't good enough but it gave me the yellow 01 r8 race car, which I've been looking for since about 3 months ago. I am getting rid of both subaru cars I used. What a horrendous piece of junk that was. I have never hated a car so much in any racing game in my whole life. Thankfully it's over. Thank you mobius. And the trick is to brake earlier than you think, let the car pause for a split second with no brake/throttle input, then pick up the gas earlier than you think. Very odd machine... Fastest lap was a 1:34.2 something.

That's what I needed thank you.
And your saying you won with my setup?
Cause I can't do better than 1:38.xxx but i understand some physics, and how things should work, and that's how i tuned the car, i just haven't slept in a while, ill get some sleep and come back after it. Maybe then I'll win.
PS Send me the subarus they might give me luck to win(LOL), and what adjustments did you make to my setup?

dude, thank you so very much. i didnt even try that tune till you suggested it. It just didnt seem like something i would like. Well it took me two runs with it to get used to it, but on the third i won it, passing the skyline right after the last turn along the straight. I finally beat this damn thing!!! Im a happy panda now. Well, two down, now only the elise race to go.

I finally managed to get gold on this. Laps were about 1:37 for the first, 1:36 for the second and rest were somewhere between 1:34 and 1:35.
My trick was keeping the camber and toe settings default for maximum grip.
Just poke around the car to get a good touch, the turning front tires may seem useless thanks to the ever-so-awesome understeer, but just take it easy, brake late (not too late like Yours Truly) and draft as much as you can.
Add me on PSN if you want to try my car.

I've done it!! Eventually!! After a long time trying, I reverted the suspension and LSD to stock, and three attempts later, I've now got the Level 23 ticket!
I'm sharing the Elise I used to gold, and in about 5 minutes I'll be sharing this STi. If anyone wants to borrow and try, feel free to add me on the PSN.
Now for the Fiat 500...
Oh and I got the Jaguar Le Mans Car from '88.

Finally! Gold!!! thats all 3 experts done now!!!! Even if I did cut the odd corner. Got in front of the lead car a fraction before the finish line, beat it by in 0.21 seconds. Damn thats the hardest thing I've ever done in GT golding licence IA-10 was stroll in the park compared to this. I found mobius's setup to work the best for me. 👍 I also switched from mid to high RPM turbo as I found that gave a bit of extra oomph and didn't adversely affect acceleration running against my ghost during practise sessions.

This tune is the one
Beat the challenge with 5 secs using DS3.
I confirm.THIS IS THE ONE!!!! Thanx to GT_Cro i finally won with total time 7:58,104 and it can be a lot better.
I was screaming while passing the leading gt-r.......!This sti and its oversteering madness gave nightmares,headache and almost a divorce.After getting this gold i would be more than happy to do this if the game allowed me to

I created an account just so I could say that this challenge is going to cause me to destroy my PS3 and this game. I have tried just about every tune here. All the tricks and all that stuff and I still can't do better than second place. I have gotten as close as 2 seconds but can't seem to nail it. I must be the worst driver ever if everyone else is completing this and I still can't. I did the Lotus one and the Fiat one in like 5 tries each but can't for the life of me do this. I guess I will try again tomorrow. 👎

I'm pretty good and use a G25 and took me a while. I don't know how people even play the game w/ a controller. If you are within 2 sec., just enjoy the fact that there's a challenge for you in GT5, that's half the fun! If you're that close, you'll eventually get it, it just takes time and practice.
Also get an oil change and engine rebuild- and upgrade every single part to max, then put weight on with ballast to rear and reduce HP with limiter. You'll get it. EDIT--- except chassis stiffener.. don't put that on! It makes understeer worse with these tires!

I honestly found the Fiat the hardest, I practised that one for weeks. The STi took about a week. With the Fiat theres no room for error you have to do 5 perfect laps, at least with the others the car has more power so if you screw up mildly you can use the cars ooomph to pull yourself out of trouble, but with the Fiat it's everything or nothing.
Ah, controllers. I really must get a wheel one day, if only I had the money and the room for it...
P.S I wouldn't say everyone is completing it, those how have, post, and the rest... stay silent.
