Cheers All!

Few words to begin with. I was planning to "open my own garage" for quite some time now but unfourtunetly there are no local GT4 forums, so I have to go international. As you can see, Im not an English native speaker, so please excuse me, if there are any mistakes in my English.

Now, please let me introduce you to my humble workshop called Tengoku Racing (nothing to do with the UK based real garage, I actually came up with the name by myself :) )

I'm sure there are much better garages over here and I don't want to compete with them directly. Instead, I want to bring in a little more personality to my cars. I build my cars the way I like it and I think there are people who will like it too, but I'm sure that there will be people who wont like it aswell. That is, of course, ok! :)

You could guess from the name on what kind of cars I like to focus - yes - japanese. I love everything that drives, but most of the cars I like come from Japan. I love the sound of an inline 6, so most of the cars I (will) build will be equiped with this engine. Cars with this powerplant are far from the most agile ones, but the smoothnes and potencial they have are simply breathtaking.

I Hope you're going to enjoy my cars. :)

So you won a couple of races, saved some credits and you think its time to get something a little more faster? If so, then this R32 GT-R is the right choice.

This car is intended to be a begginers choice, though it needs some skill to handle. Its not supposed to be your first car at all! (though a stock R32 would be a good choice imo)

GT-R is a car for patient drivers. For achieving the fastest times its sometimes better to step on the gas less, just like in this case. While going through a corner, don't be afraid to step off the throttle. You will be slower in corner entry, but thanks to the grunt of the RB26 and 4WD, your corner exit speed and grip will be insane compared to the others. Don't forget that the GT-R is a heavy and fast car, so you need to brake soon!

The car works nicely on Nurburgrings north loop, its quite easy to get under the 8 minute range.

Before buying our package, please take the stock R32 GT-R with N3 tyres for a spin on your favourite track to make sure you will get used to the way GT-R handles.

So, onto the specs!

Power: 388hp/485Nm
Mass: 1301kg
Weight/Power: 3.35kg/hp
QT: 12.478s
Vmax: 288.7km/h
Tsukuba top: 1.01.630
Ring top: 7.52.491

Why did I choose the zenki R32?
- It offers great stuff for the money (15k/308hp)
- Its the leightest GT-R in the R32 range
- Simple and easy to read handling

Costs:

Car price - 15.500 c.
Modifications - 20.000 c.
Wheels - 500 c. (low offset gold TE37)
Total - 36.000 c.


A car with 380hp and 485Nm which is ready for racing for the price of a new 350Z?

The suspensions is ballanced and could take up to 430hp. It can take even 500hp, but you will have to change your driving style and the car will loose some of its agility.


Mods:

Semi-racing exhaust
ECU
S1 turbo
Racing intercooler
Large single plate clutch
Semi-racing flywheel
Semi-racing suspension kit
Medium sport tyres
Weight reduction stage 1
Oil change


Settings:

Driving aids: 0

Spring rate: F 7.0/R 6.0
Ride height: F 115/R 115
Damper: F 5/R 5

Enjoy it and don't forget to share your opinions, please! :)
 
Ah! Someone new! Let me say hello and welcome to GTP. :)

I wish you the best of luck with your garage! :cheers:

I look forward to seeing your tunes in a future Tuning Contest, if you decide to join. ;)
 
Best of luck to your new garage mate 👍 Your English is perfectly fine.
 
Welcome have fun and I just happen to like skylines. good luck with your garage man
 
welcome amongst us GTP Tuners and good luck, you're going to need it, as well as patience.
 
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome!

I think I won't be able to release new cars so offen as others do, but I will try to give everything I have to every single one I will make. :)

Im going to release my new low-cost drifter tonight, so stay tuned. And here's a little sneak peak of my new time attack demo car. I'm still having quite big suspension issues, but the car clocked a 55 second range laps on Tsukuba with soft semislicks with ease.

I know I promised to release a drifter, but I found out that the it needs a lot more tuning, because it simply doesn't behave the way I want.

But don't worry, I'm going to present my new little something in a couple of hours. :)
 
Tengoku Racing Street spec '01 Honda NSX
'01 Honda NSX Type S

I've always admired the NSX. Not for its look or its speed, but for the balance it delivers. It's not the speed you get through corners, its the WAY you get through them.

The NSX is an amazing car in its stock form and if you're going to choose it, it will bring you hours of pure fun with N2 tires and the north loop of Nurburgring. But we all now that one day you're going to want more.

If that's what you're looking for, here it is. I purposely didn't wanted to build a race car, instead, I wanted to add that "little more" while maintaining the NSX's original balance (thats why I use N tires). With power big enough to keep thing moving and small enough to let you floor it all the way, this NSX will take you further. But instead of just kicking you there, it will gently guide you. :)

Rather then on racing, the car is oriented on pure driving expirience. S tires can be used, but the suspension will need some adjustments.

The car is based on a brand new 2001 Honda NSX Type S. A simillar package will be released for an older model NSX for those, who can't afford to spend 150 grand on a new car, so stay tuned! Track oriented NSX-R will follow shortly as well.

Hopefully I can find the time today to try the NSX. It'll be my first time driving on N tires,:eek: so it might be fun.

I'll test the '89 GTR if I have time, and can find one in the used car lot.

Not sure if you were serious with this but just in case ...

Also, I like the approach you're taking to tuning Mr. Void. It's something I did myself a few years ago i.e. stratify the components as if for imaginary race regulations. In the end I relented and went back to just putting the 'best' kit on the car, regardless of power levels but I sometimes still play with 'lower' grade parts - it makes for an interesting challenge.
 
Tengoku Racing Street spec '01 Honda NSX Review

This is a nice car. Very simple (although costly) to build, and about as easy to drive. Power increase was modest but effective. Good handling most of the time, occasionally the back end wanted to swing around but it was easily corrected. I found that it lacked grip with the N3 road tires that I used, but I drive pretty hard. I think some S2 or S3 tires can make this car great though.

8.5/10:tup:

I did that on purpose. :D

Anyways, thanks for such a good rating!

Here's my first official atempt to build a drift car.

This car aims for novice drifters. Both price and setup should be reasonable for everyone who wants to start learning how to go sideways.

Cars handling can be significantly influenced by the way the LSD is set. If you want it to be more stable in small to mid angles (for the cost of bigger unstableness through bigger angles), change the LSD accel setting from 10 to 20. Don't be affraid to experiment in this area. :)

Please bear in mind that the car is running on N2 tires which aren't the grippiest.

The car is sitting quite high, so don't be surprised when shifting the weight from left to right (and vice versa) will cause more oversteer then you would expect. If you shift it too agresively, just jump on the brakes and it will settle down.

Don't be shy to step on the brakes or to pull the e-brake! :)


Things to remember:
- Sensitive weight shifting
- Throttle control!
- Beleave it or not, drift cars have brakes too
- Low grip
- Your first test drive should be on Trial Mountain :D

Would someone please review my HCR32? I'm really wondering if I have any chances in drifting, because I'm still having some issues in this area. :/

P.S.: 650Nm street spec car comming very soon. :D
 
I'll test your GTS-t as personally, I'm LOVING what you are doing out of all the tuners. If I went and opened my garage, the budget side of things was one side that I was looking at and you've got it already set up very well within a couple of cars. :D The NSX was a bit rich but still good. 👍

I'll give you a review soon, but as a garage, you get a 10/10 from me. Two 👍👍!!
 
I have a spare '89 GTS in my garage, but I'm by no means a good drifter. If you don't mind, I'd like to review your R32 and see how beginner friendly it is. :D:tup:

Edit: I see you don't have oil change or body refresh listed. Is your R32 a 6.2 mile car?
 
Sorry, I totaly forgot about that. Oil change is something I do automaticly when I buy a used car. I didn't do body refreshing, because it would double the cars price.
 
I thought so, just getting confirmation. 👍

Edit: Hmmm... with your parts I only get 242bhp. :confused: Is there anything missing?
 
Whoops...
Sorry, it was pretty late (and I was pretty drunk) when I posted it up. I forgot to put turbo mods on the list. :D

You need stage 1 turbo and a racing intercooler too.

Sorry again. :dunce:
