You might find the tail of your car a little loose with those settings.
For "grip" driving I tend to set the rear springs about 1.5 to 2.0 lighter than the front.
For my driving style it keeps the rear planted.
I also add a little camber to the rear tires to make them "want" to turn in.

As for your transmission settings, I have used the Gear Trick/Tranny trick in the past with good results. Granted, moreso in GT3 than in GT4.
GT4 and GT2 seem to do just fine with adjusting the Auto-Set.
But you might give the "Gear Trick/Tranny Trick a try.
 
hmm.., IMO there are a LOT of problems with your setup..,

since I'm a nice person ;) I'll help you out for free..,

Is this a personal setup? I would recommend at least Weight Reduction Level 1 so that the car would "lighten up" and be more easier to drive..,


also, I would recommend THIS setup instead:

Suspension

Spring Rate : 10.0 / 9.5
Ride Height : 94 / 94
Shock Bound : 4 / 3
Shock Rebound : 5 / 5
Camber : 2.5 / 1.5
Toe : 0 / 0
Stabilizer : 2 / 2

for the gearings, lower your Auto Set to 11, that should be enough. 13 is too high.

your LSD setup is too weak. Your car produces a lot of power and torque with the Stage 2 Turbo and RC Intercooler so it should be set like this:

Initial : 15
Accel: 40 or 45
Decel: 10

the Decel 10 should make it stable enough for heavy braking, i.e. you're coming up to a sharp hairpin in around 230 km/h ..,

Brake Balance : 6 / 4


there! that should do it. if you have any more questions feel free to ask.., 👍



*edit : your picture of the FD is too big, please do so kindly resize it.., :)👍
 
=drifting24/7=, was this setup made new or is it from another FD?

And Toast999, don't worry your setup isn't so good, it's your first and be proud you've tried it ;) It will get better the more you focus yourself to set cars to your liking :) Trust me 👍

Best wishes,

S-Line Audi Fan
