Just wondering how people are tuning the DB9.
This is such a great car and tuning it in GT5P has been loads of fun.

I haven't seen many people at all on this forum driving the DB9 so I thought I'd post my setup in the hope that someone will compare theirs with mine.

I know I can somehow refine this car further but I can already win the Sazuka quite comfortably.
But damn that Nissan is quick!


Here it is.

Power 545 / +23
Weight 1453 / %85
Ride Height -12 / -12
Spring Rate 5 / 6
Damper 5 / 6
Toe In +0.09 / +0.09 (It was set to -0.09 / -0.09. Thanx for pointing that out Rocket Punch!!)
Camber -2.2 / -1.5
Brake Balance 7 / 6
Turn angle 42
TCS 0
ABS 1

Any one got any suggestions for getting this car a little more grippy?
Its not terribly hard to drive but it is screeching in almost every corner of Sasuka.

I do have a very good set-up for this. By the way, what you have on you spec is misleading:

"Toe In -0.09 / -0.09" ---> should say "Toe: -0.09 / -0.09"

"Toe In" is positive(+) toe /--\ ; "Toe out" is negitive(-) toe \--/. What you have there is all toe out.

My set-up is very different than yours, as my setting is for 900deg wheel and zero assist.
 
I've been playing around with it, I might post my specs up here if I get the time later. If not, by next weekend (at uni, so can only get my time on the PS3 at weekends). Very good car, its so similar to the Jaguar in handling and speed, its uncanny. The DB9 is just a little bit more powerful though, and it gives it an edge over the Jag.

How stupid could I get?....Pretty stupid by the looks of things!

I've been running the car with Neg Toe and didn't even pick up on it.

Thanx for the heads up, that = instant handling increase, but now I have to re-tune a bit.

Exactly the help I was after. 👍
