Constructive Criticism Needed
I use this F430 on Fuji, Suzuka, and the High Speed Ring, and i would like to get some feedback on the tune.

Please note that i do use the SIXAXIS controller and i don't use assists that also means no ABS...although turning the abs on shouldn't cause any problems I recommend everything else should be off.

Also because there is no way to adjust the diff on the F430 off throttle over steer does occur...if anyone knows an alternative way of dealing with this it would be greatly appreciated.

Lowering the rear ride height will help keep the back end out back where it belongs.
That's all I can say for now, having not driven it.
 
You don't say whether you are using std or pro, so I tried it out at Suzuka in both std and pro. I found it fairly neutral (just a bit tight in pro). I find the gears good for Suzuka. I found the brake bias too high for running no ABS. With ABS on it was fine but with ABS off it locked up every time I touched the brakes. I turned the bias down to 4/3 and found I liked that.

I didn't find the rear stepped out too easy except in pro with ABS off. I turned the rear toe to +0.50 and that helped but turning the ABS on kept the rear in line perfectly, as long as I drove it like a MR (brake early, feed in some throttle as you ease off the brake entering the corner).
 
interesting approach... drop the power a bit because it is prone to understeer. turning the abs off is dangerous with a rwd car because the rear wheels will lock up and just keep going on and spin you out

but either way, i think i'll try it, compare it to others (including mine) and post some results... lap times for suzuka?
