Notes :
One of few Japanese Civic EK tuner car with big turbine kit fitted, weight reduction down to only driver seat + race oriented reinforcements, race spec suspension, 5 speed cross mission ( shorter gearing ) giving extreme performance for a civic. This requires the car to be fitted with S tire ( R Compound semi slick tires )-The Top Fuel Zero 1000 uses soft /R compound semi slick tire in The Best Motoring Tuned Car Battle at Tsukuba, and in GT6 equals to sports medium.
The car is tuned to replicate the real car as close as possible, the real car has Super Racing type N1 Coil Over with very high spring rate not available in GT6, so I opted to use the lower spring rate of Super Racing Circuit Master RS ( works just as good ). LSD is replicated - ATS Carbon 1.5 way, this time the LSD is one of the cars strength alongside the potent Circuit Master RS coilovers, able to give great response and traction. Base LSD is medium preload at 22/.
Camber has been tweaked to perform better in GT6, if going for real life spec, camber front should be 3.6, while rear stays the same 1.3. ( if one can post close lap time to real lap time with the 3.6 front camber, then the FF beast is tamed )
The real car is capable of 1:02.57 at Tsukuba during test lap and definitely can get better lap time as it has some brake fade issue ( causing sporadic understeer ), my test best lap time ( driving to replicate similar pace + line to the Best Motoring video ) is 1:01.9xx using sports medium 3.6/1.3 camber and no aids ( with stick giving perfect shifts - with H shifter and wheel, the lap time would be closer )
To get the best of the car, drive like a pro driver would in real life, smooth steering, trail brake, exit with smooth gradual throttle especially on low speed exit ( 2nd or 3rd gear corner ), only full on when certain you won't lift off anymore.
Enjoy
UPDATE 1.16 : Fixes on weight distribution, camber, toe, ARB. The car is now capable of 1:01s at Tsukuba with high camber 3.6/1.3
Added ATS 5 Speed Cross Mission ( Close Ratio ), both standard module and large module 1-3-4-5 gear set with 3 final drive ( 4.400 stock and ATS High Final 4.785 + 4.928 )
UPDATE September 2016 1.22 :
Added new base damper with focus on rotation, old original suspension is now optional.
Added stance alignment, with optional extreme toe in/toe out.
For Stance Alignment, body rigidity is optional, do not install it if wanted less tightness. Flat floor also optional, but highly recommended to install it for better grip overall and easier to handle. Without flat floor the car will much faster in top speed/acceleration but less stable with stance alignment ( entry oversteer and less braking distance )
