Notes:
This drift tune is very unique - suits very well on this Nissan Silvia Q's Aero '96.
A new comer to drifting will find this a good tune and car to start with.
A great choice for the well known drifter in gt6.
Tested on Tsukuba, there it is exceptional, the tranny and throttle control is very unique also. Hope you like it
First of all, I should congrats on the new replica garage
Glad you are making these cars, hope you will learn and improve a lot more with each car built
I also read you have AC now, enjoy it as well 👍 Let me know if you need any help or have questions about car/setup/physics in that game ( we can use our current conversation ), though I don't have it, at least I can help from real life side of things
Okay, I quoted the car above as I have tried it for drifting in time trial offline.
I only have about 10 minutes driving the Silvia S14 Q Aero 96 drift car on your garage, I drift it at Tsukuba.
Here are some things that I felt when drifting the car : ARB a bit too stiff, not enough play in side to side weight transfer, a bit limiting in lateral grip when changing direction, damper do not allow the kind of transition I wanted as the weight a bit too slow being released from front, rear a bit too soft/quick receiving weight. Turn in needs more eagerness, under braking front damper a bit stiff. High angle drift is possible, but rough in certain situation, direction changes a hit and miss. Overall the setup is fine, it's just the way the ARB and damper being set that I felt a bit too edgy. Please don't take this the wrong way, I refer to my own preference of drift cars which have grip oriented setup, not too soft, not too stiff, like a track day car. The car felt tight due to the LSD setup and toe in at the rear, this is not wrong at all. You can use brake balance to help the car braking turn in, then damper/ARB to increase grip in certain situation ( cornering, drifting on low to high angle, exit and direction change mid drift )
As the car used CH tire, I did changes to the damper/ARB only ( I limit the scope to maintain the car characteristics - LSD, weight/distribution, alignment )
damper F/R
comp 4 7
ext 3 6
ARB 1/2
The changes is not to be regarded as optimal as I only have a few minutes to try it
BB 3/5 ( I used racing brakes kit as in tune ) I used higher rear so I can use the brake for initiating drift and mid drift.
You can try drift with your own tune first then try the changes I made and then try to find the best of both if possible, I understand that my changes may not suit your drifting style
Notes : Forgot to tell you about the car transmission, to get the ratios listed, you need to use default 4.083 final, set top speed to 230 kmh, then you can set the gears. I also tried for 2 laps at Suzuka East, with the damper/ARB change and your setup
Pretty easy to drift and stable 👍
