View attachment 141664​

Notes :
Special build 500PP RX7 Racer based on FEED Fujita Engineering RX7 replica.

I made some changes, removing power parts and lower power to achieve 500PP mark, lighter body at 1150kg, lower rear aero at 25 for better balance of top speed and cornering.

LSD has been tweaked for easier drive and consistency, using low locking rate.

Gearing has been shortened for short to medium speed track, lower the final for more top speed, I recommend 4.700, 4.100 or 3.900.

This tune is very well balanced, able to tackle various corners with ease.

ENJOY

​

Notes :

Saleen S281 has been sold for years in America This is 2007 model year S281E replica.

The Saleen S281E has 550HP power with 525 ft lb torque, the replica has been built as close as possible with 550HP/523ftlb. The real car weight is 1642kg or 3620lbs with 53/47 distribution, while in GT6 I can get the weight, but the distribution is at 56/44.

The S281E is equipped with N2 RaceCraft suspension upgrade from Saleen. With coilover springs + damper all around, but still retain the rear live axle with panhard rod. I have set the spring rate according to real life N2 RaceCraft spring rate, and tuned the damper + ARB to gives good balance. Several suspension alignment have also been provided. Try them all, and see which one fits you.

Gearing uses Tremec T56 in real life, a 6 close ratio speed manual with 4.1 final, the ratios are similar to the T56 used on Pontiac GTO and Holden Monaro. I have also included a 2nd set of ratio, Tremec TR6060 close ratio with better spread. The LSD is Saleen MaxGrip Speed Sensitive LSD, I tried to simulate the performance using lower preload and medium lock on acceleration + low lock on braking.

The Saleen S281E was tuned and tested at Tsukuba, Silverstone GP and Nordschleife. At Tsukuba, it can lap an easy 1:05s on comfort soft.


ENJOY

I just edited the Saleen S281E replica, I forgot to add Intake Tuning I recommend to try all alignment setup, the high and low camber with optional toe angle for example, drive quite well at Tsukuba.

Keep in mind the braking distance, brake early and smooth with throttle on exit, the torque easily overwhelm the rear tires.

Aston Martin V600 replica has been updated, major changes to suspension, weight and tuning parts. Tested at Silverstone GP, Grand Valley Speedway, Bathurst and Tsukuba.

​

Notes :

The Civic One Make Series was a long tradition in Japan which has been run for over 30 years. It stopped briefly in early to mid 2000's, replaced by Integra Series. With the return of FD2 Civic Type R, the series reignited with Civic back on the spotlight.

This particular replica is based on Championship winning car driven by T. Matsui, the Mugen/ATS/TEIN Tokai sponsored car fought a fierce battles throughout the years from 2008 to 2010 against Nobuteru Taniguchi and several other high profile race drivers. The winning formula is a good setup suspension and LSD as other variable are controlled in one make series ( power/weight/tires/gearbox )

After long research back in GT6 release days, I collected various information about the Civic Type R One Make model. The car was sold officially by Honda Japan at cheaper price - about 1.6 million Yen, compared to vanilla road going model at 2.6+ million Yen. The One Make FD2 omitted many parts from road going model, thus making it strictly track car. Most of road car requirements are gone :

Mechanical
* Helical Limited Slip Differential

Interior

* Honda R Spec seat
* Leather steering wheel
* Drivers metal foot rest
* I-SRS airbags for driver and passenger

Other Equipment

* HID headlights
* LED high mount stop lamp
* Full auto Air Conditioner
* Keyless entry system
* Security Alarm and Immobilizer
* Power Door Locks
* Passenger and rear seat
* All seatbelts
* Sun visors and vanity mirrors
* Center console
* Roof lining, carpet and all other lining
* Under car protective coating, tools, warning flare etc

This gives the Civic FD2 One Make much lower base weight when bought, but racing car preparation, like safety roll cage, suspension, LSD parts also add some fat to the car. The road going Civic Type R FD2 has about 61/39 weight distribution at 1260-1270kg. Removing AC cuts the weight to 1250kg. After some research about weight savings, I decided to use 1220kg and 60/40 distribution. This is a realistic figure based on about 50+kg saving from the omitted parts and added safety roll cage.

Power is based on several Honda Civic FD2 Type R One Make Race Car exported overseas, built by Mugen, the car was dynoed on engine dyno with 235HP output and slight torque increase across the board. This is possible due to the Mugen parts like ECU and Racing Exhaust. Redline should be at 9000 RPM.

The Mugen SSR/TEIN/ATS/Tokai Civic replica is fitted with TEIN Circuit Master Super Racing - Ultimate Spec Coilover, I chose this as the more preferred TEIN SRC Circuit Master Type N1 Damper base spring rate are not possible ( too high ). The TEIN SRC Ultimate Spec is specialized for circuit racing use, offering significant drop in ride height, 10kg/mm front springs and a host of rear springs options ( 8/10/12 kg/mm ). The real car uses lower rear ride height and slightly higher front ( 1 in higher ) to maintain weight balance under heavy cornering. This translate to 100/75 ride height and can be compared to the real car pictures, although the real car is a bit lower overall - about 10 to 20mm - not possible in GT6 as the lowest is 75mm

I have setup the damper, ARB, camber and toe to work on all spring rate combination and ride height. Try them all and choose one that suits you best. The real car suspension setup is best replicated using my personal setup suspension listed at the top above, with high camber, and 97/75 ride height. Visuall ride height and camber has been replicated as well.

Gearing is stock as used on on make series, while LSD is special model build from Active Traction Service ( ATS ), this particular LSD is specially tuned to Mr. Matsui spec which help him winning several races. The ATS LSD is 1 way, based on Silent Type Metal disc model line up, with 20 disc/plates, 70 degree cam angle ( high lock ) giving distinct throttle induced car control freedom and medium preload at 8kg-m. The LSD can be setup for lower cam angle at 45 and 55 degree by cam ring rearrangement, I have provided both setup as options below :


LSD - 1 Way ATS Silent Type Metal LSD type R - Matsui Spec - 20 Disc/Plates -Optional 45 Cam Angle
Initial Torque : 19
Acceleration Sensitivity:31
Braking Sensitivity: 5

LSD - 1 Way ATS Silent Type Metal LSD type R - Matsui Spec - 20 Disc/Plates -Optional 55 Cam Angle
Initial Torque : 19
Acceleration Sensitivity: 37
Braking Sensitivity: 5


To get as close as possible to the real life performance, I used lap times record ( race and qualifying times ) at 3 different track that are available in GT6. Suzuka, Twin Ring Motegi Road Course and Fuji Speedway F are the 3 tracks that are regulars in Civic One Make Race Series. The tires is Sports Soft which is comparable to the Yokohama Advan Racing Slick used in the One Make Series ( most probably ADVAN A005 )

T. Matsui held the pole time record at Twin Ring Motegi with 2:10s lap and quickest race best times at low 2:12s, while at Fuji Speedway, race best times at low 1:57s and Suzuka race best times at 2:23s flat. The qualifying/pole record times at Fuji and Suzuka is unknown, but roughly about 1.5 to 2+seconds quicker than race best times. Expect the replica to lap in 1:55s at Fuji, 2:20s at Suzuka and 2:10s at Twin Ring Motegi Road Course.

I tuned and tested mainly at the those 3 tracks, and the replica can easily lap in 2:20s at Suzuka, 2:10s at Twin Ring Motegi Road Course and 1:55s at Fuji Speedway F.

Below are the 3 best lap replays of the track for reference.

Personal Setup Ride Height 97/75​

Notes :
Hosaka Tuning Factory built the car to showcase their tuning prowess and the car was featured in Hot Version video, driven by Dori Dori The car was fitted with more front torque split and still with harder compound semi slick ( YH Advan A048 ). The goal was to post sub 1 minute lap at Tsukuba with minimal cost ( no reinforcement or light weight parts ). This R33 uses upgraded turbine that focuses on low to mid rpm response to aid acceleration with limited power and stock weight ( 550PS - 1540kg ) The car managed to do the sub 1 minute lap at Tsukuba with S tire ( R compound street legal semi slick ) -sports medium in GT6.

Now, this replica has adapted suspension from PCR Hosaka Tuning Factory (HTF) Custom Coil Over, as in GT6 higher spring rate as fitted on real one is not possible LSD as usual from HTF : NISMO GT LSD both front and back. Simple tune with not too much power, but very rapid on technical track and exceptional handling.

Aim to have 59s ( sub 1 minute ) lap time at Tsukuba with above tune, enjoy

Thanks Danbojte, the link code has extra ', I fixed it, and added the McLaren MP4-12C GT3 as well. I think this McLaren is just as quick as the Ferrari 458 GT3

Thanks for the amazing 458 GT3 tune have had some fantastic races with the AI suprisingly enough. You have made what was already a blast to drive oh the so much better. About to hook up my MP4 with the GT3 tune you have provided above. Once again many thanks Ridox!

@ ridox - Once again thanks for the hook up. MP 4 was fantastic as well. Did a number of your GT3 tunes all brilliant however the Camaro really stood out. Truly a remarkable amount of work you have done with all your tunes and you are a credit to the communtity. Guys like myself are grateful to have guys like yourself who understand how to do highly effective tuning and are willing to share that knowledge so graciously.

Nice one brah, looking forward to seeing what you turn out. Everyone needs a hobby hahaha. I have a request that may interest you a Holden Monaro in a GT3 spec. Of course this to my knowledge hasn't been done but as you have spec'd a number of GT3 cars I would love to see your take on what it could be. Also I would love if you could provide a killer tune on the Amuse S2000 GT1 Turbo if it's a beast now I wonder what would it be once you are done with it. Anyways all good if not as I know you have other project you are working on.

Anyways all good if not as I know you have other project you are working on.

I'd like to see you wave your magic tuner's wand over the Monaro too.

HRT (Holden Racing Team) made a Prototype called the HRT427 & it was destined to take on the best from Europe. However, when the bean counters crunched the numbers, they couldn't make it work for less than $215k so it never got the go ahead. It would've been one helluva car though as the prototype had 560bhp from the dry-dumped Chev LS7 under the hood.

The race version is probably as close as you'll get to a GT3 example. It ran Ina category here called 'Nations Cup' and won both runnings of the Bathurst 24hr race before it was reduced to the current 12hr.

I've attempted the HRT version myself using the Supercharger to simulate the larger displacement (it makes it a wheelspinning drift machine) but I can't tune suspension to save myself so if you want to have a go, I'd be very interested to try the end result.

I can't promise anything yet, but I'll look into the Holden, and S2000 GT1 Turbo. I have 4 cars in priority to be posted when I can play again, Gallardo Superleggera ( Best Motoring and LP570 ), Renntech SLR 722 GT, BWM M3 GT4, BMW 3002 TT, and Audi R8 GT ( 2010, 2012 and H&R R8 GT ) and long promised to @Nomad67 if he's still around, a proper setup based on real life spec Amuse Carbon R.

All in good time man 👍
Looks like you've got some nice machines in the works. I'm especially looking forward to the Gallardo & R8.

Not to be confused with HSV's W427 of course. Good call Pete05 that thing was stonking fantastic had a metallic bronze paint chip from memory

The W427 was the 4-door sedan that HSV did. They planned on doing 427 of them but only made around 130 so it's definitely a collector's item. You could get it in a few colors if I remember correctly.
The HRT427 was the Monaro on steroids and the one & only was painted in red.
The metallic bronze Monaro I think you're referring to was, I think, for a one make series in Dubai or somewhere. I can't remember if they had the LS1, LS6 or LS2 6-litre but I know they didn't have the LS7.

The 458 has the potential to beat the McLaren, maybe I can rework the suspension again

Right now I am going to be busy finishing up Wangan Midnight - a few cars left, then the long overdue real life list. I do have some cars done in the past, MR2 MK! AW, Ferrari 512BB, Lamborghini Countach 88th, Nissan GTR, Ferrari 599, and some others I can't remember

I found the 458 the quickest of all GT3 cars bar the Jag which is on the to do list.

Nothing is better than McLaren, maybe just the Camaro... Anyway, I love them all!

Agreed all the GT3's are sensational and the Camaro is bad ass!

Notes :


The NSX GT2 was entered in 1995 Le Mans, the car number 84 driven by Akira Iida, Kunimitsu Takahashi, and Keiichi Tsuchiya. It became the class winner.

This replica is based on that same car. I did a lot of research to find details and specs. Some of them can't be achieved accurately. There have been different weight figure, 1043kg and 1050kg. The GT6 NSX LM can only go as low as 1045kg. Power is at 380HP, but later on the NSX GT2 with different chassis has 400HP power in 2001 when it raced in European Endurance series. The Gran Turismo version on PSX has 549HP power and 1050kg. This power level can't be achieved in GT6.

I based the suspension on the 2001 update NSX GT2 to compete with modern race car spec. The suspension uses Eibach springs and Dynamic Damper System. I set the spring rate to similar ratio as used on JGTC NSX as the value range is not reachable in GT6. This should give similar handling albeit at softer overall rate. I have also setup the damper, ARB and alignment to work with the extra rigidity applied and include a damper setup for non body rigidity for those who don't want to apply the irreversible upgrade.

LSD is 1.5 way, with high preload and lock to ensure stability. Gearing is based on Hewland 5 Speed Sequential as it used on 1995 Le Mans. I adapted the current Hewland offering of 5 speed sequential for MR cars, the ratio and finals are taken from the Hewland catalogue, aimed to replicate the top speed during the race at close to 280kmh.

The NSX GT2 Team Kunimitsu has been tuned and tested at La Sarthe, Silverstone GP, Special Stage Route 5 and Motegi East Course. It can lap SSR5 in 1:28s and Motegi East in 1:27s on SM tires.





ENJOY

I wanted to try a setup by you for a longtime, but have been so tied up in racing series that I have not had an opportunity in a long time to really give any time to testing out cars that were not in the leagues I race in. Last night I had my first chance to and boy when I found this beauty I had to give it a go.

First impressions on the car I had was it is extremely planted to the track, almost to the point where it is a little slower then it should be. Braking straight line into corners is spot on, there was no real worry of breaking the limit of adhesion with the RH tires I ran the car with. Trail braking into the corner's is only increments difficult at first, it took about two turns to find the sweet spot using the gas and brake to get it to rotate without over stressing any tires during the maneuver. I probably should have used a harder compound tire looking back at it because with the RH tires the car suffers from terminal understeer at every point in the turn. You have to manipulate the throttle very carefully throughout the whole turn. Eve lift off oversteer is very mild to almost non existent in most turns although hey a little too aggressive it will spin you around if you lift off completely.

When you do push this car to the limit the major weakness it has is the inside front tire during any turn. This tire seems to be getting pushed beyond its traction limit/ or being overloaded. It is easy to use for an advantage in the corner for rotation, but it will also be a great hinder if you are worried about tire wear. This happens especially if you are ready to plant down the accelerator mid corner.

The car shines in stability during mid and high speed corners staying planted properly to give you a great amount of grip to exit post apex at full speed. It is almost like having a FWD car during this point of the turn. It will understeer during this process, but if you have your driving line spot on it is extremely rewarding for the next straight. It takes a little trail an error to get it right, but overall for a MR car it will give you the confidence to exit turns at full blast, something most MR cars have a problem with. I did not really have to use any counter steer on any exits of turns.

The only warning I will give for this car is just to stay off the curbing, if hitting them you will be going for a ride.

My recommendation for this car is for those that want to learn to drive a MR car. It exhibits the tendencies of the drive train and how it will react, but reacting benign enough that it is easily controllable for most drivers. This tune is a fantastic replica that I recommend everyone to drive.

Power delivery - 8.3/10
Straight Line braking - 8.6/10
Trail Braking - 7.6/10
Corner entry - 7.8/10
Entry to Apex - 8.1/10
Apex exit - 8.4/10
Turn exit -8.2/10
Overall - 8.3/10

If you like a planted car that will not lose traction very much which is rewarding to drive at the limit and a little over it, then this tune with RH tires is the way to go. Thanks for the tune and when I get a chance I will have another go at a different car :-)

Thank you for the amazing review Did you test the car with body rigidity ?

I have been inactive the past few days, busy with work and life I will be posting the cars I listed above soon. Hopefully all of them, and I have been testing some of them at Red Bull Ring last week after managed to update to 1.09, camber fix introduces some great improvement on how to fine tune the suspension, damper has also been improved, FR cars gets a bit tamer, while MR, AWD and FF now shines with camber giving dynamic grip on peak G load during cornering.

Yes that is correct I ran them with body rigidity, although I feel it helps with the undetsteer, I think it is necessary for the tune to use it.

If anyone having a spare time, be sure to try to drive the Ferrari F40 replica, the EU Auto MotorSport Mag version on comfort soft tire at Red Bull Ring, aim for at least 1:44s lap - lower the car to 80/80 ride height and if wanted softer springs, use 7.14 Front and 11.61 Rear - all else the same, enjoy the awesome ride
