Lexus IS200 GT1 Race Car '04

I've had this car gathering dust in my collection for a while and decided to bring it out for a couple of runs in the form I left it in, and was disappointed. The handling was lacking something and the turn of speed was unexpectedly low. So I decided to mix things up a bit by using some other car's tunes on it and stumbled across a setup that I liked and thought that, since I couldn't find any other tune for this, I should post it up for people to try out.​

The Extras.
Purchase everything for this car, including the Rigidity Improvement.
(Engine rebuild and Rigidity Refresh as required)

The Settings.

Aero - 20/50

Transmission - Set max speed slider to 199mph
Adjust for each track accordingly, although this seems to work well for most, as this car struggles to get over 180mph or so.

Differential - 6/34/15

Suspension
-30/-30
14.0/12.0
8/3
7/4
6/5

Camber & Toe
2.0/1.8
-0.10/0.00

Brake Balance - 7/10 (Adjust for your personal preference though)

Assists (Optional)
SRF - On
TCS - Off
ASM - Off
ABS - 1
Driving Line - On, but only as braking reference points

Tests
Results are based on my, admittedly rather limited, abilities and should only be used as a guideline, rather than a target. I also only use the regular DS3 controller, so a wheel & pedal set will infinitely improve upon these times.

1:06.xx

1:26.xx

*All times tested include SRF on and ABS, because I haven't got the talent to carry those times without. My Trial Mountain test without SRF was 3 seconds slower, although the car was still very stable and only lost traction during 2nd gear hard acceleration*

Please let me know if you find this setup useful by just a thanks reply, smiley face or even a review (although I don't expect a review, but would be nice for some feedback and any little adjustments that you find useful to improve this.)

So far: I like this setup, the car is stabler but I'm about to do a time attack with it on the Nurburgring GP/F and see if it can prove itself :P
Best time after 3 laps: 2:07:107
