No, I'm asking for the tune of AF Corse's #51 Ferrari 458 Italia GT2.
Here's what I know so far:
Buy a Ferrari 458 Italia. Reinforce the chassis. Buy BBS LM-R. Buy front aero A. And a Spoiler (no data on size or specs)
Do not use oil trick.
Tune to the max. Preferebly use Racing Medium tires.
Weight 1245.
Power max 465. I say max because on the limiter there is the two 465 BHP limitations.
Colour: Rosso Corsa
Wheel Colour: Ferrari Titanium Gold (if any one knows a car with a similiar colur pls tel me)
Break calipers: Giallo Modena
Dials: the 3 most relevant ones
Top speed: 290 km/h

Thanks, I'll see what I can offer
Here is a replica tune for 458 GT3 :
https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/tune...model-09-570pp-sports-soft-to-racing-hard.57/
You can lower the power using limiter ( IRL it has large restrictor - 465HP ). You can stick with 1247kg with the replica, the ballast position is optimized for the car, or if you really wish, reduce to 1245kg and moved the ballast position one click towards the rear. Real life slicks is comparable to SS tires, as evidenced by most of my GT3 and GT4 replicas lap time at Silverstone GP as benchmark - they were replicating real life qualifying times.
The real GT2 has much higher downforce and specific chassis built, unlike GT3 cars that uses road car chassis, although they are seam welded. I would suggest to try RH tire to get very close to GT2 performance which is about 3 to 4 seconds quicker Silverstone GP if I remember correctly.
I do have GT2 replica made a while ago, will have to take a look at my garage in GT6 again.

I have that Ferrari 458 GT3 built with the tune Ridox provided you. The car is absolutely amazing. I just took it for a handful of laps around Bathurst...It's a grip monster with Racing Hard tires on it. I know you said you're looking for GT2, not GT3, but I'm sure you can use his tune as a base and modify it somehow to get what you need... Good luck!! 👍 👍

Guys I want a replica, with real live suspension settings and spoiler settings from the from te #51 car. Maybe i should have bought Forza Motorsport 5 with an Zboz one...
Maybe you can get someone who have FM5 to check the car settings ? I doubt it will have accurate setup like used IRL, as the real car setup would varies from track to track, it may even be different on the same track and different session ( practice, qualify and race )

Your right, in FM5 they have Risi Competizione's 458 GT2 but the problem is that the GTE regulations in the TUSCC r diferent from WEC

That is why even in FM5, cars are not accurate, it's up to the player to setup the car the way they want it too ( replicating certain car within certain regs ) Getting suspension setup for a real race car also very difficult if not next to impossible, and even if you can, the springs, damper and the alignment could change considerably even at one track outing.

@Juim1j Shouldn't a 458 Italia GT2 have a rear wing? I don't see any mention of a rear wing in your tune.
EDIT: Also, I'm not able to get your HP figure. I changed the oil and I installed all the tuning parts and I come up with the same weight at 551PP that your tune mentions, but I am only at 458hp and 431ft/lb torque when I set power limiter to 60.9%... Could you double check your settings for me, please? Thank you! 👍
