Hey, I'm looking for someone that is pretty good on tunning to help me a bit.

Trying to get less oversteer without putting TCS, anyone able to help me a bit on what I should look for ? Or point me to a guide.

Looking mostly for Suspension/brake tunning.
 
You talking about Power oversteer on exit or is the rear breaking away under heaving braking?

If you want to get the power to the ground better without so much wheelspin/oversteer, try softening the rear springs a little, softening the dampers isn't really going to help, unless the corners are bumpy on exit. There is a few other things u can try if u have fully customizable suspension. like playing with the rear toe etc (this will impact the top speed of your vehicle slightly though).


If its breaking away under heavy braking move some more brake bias towards the front of the car.
 
Na it's a exit of corner, car is very stable on entry but have some trouble at exit.

Seems I corrected some stuff now, going a bit better.

I'll try what you suggested thx ^^
 
Loosen the differential. It'll spin up the inside wheel on exit which will lead to a probably slower exit but will prevent you from having to correct or worse, spin. Lower rear spring rates (or higher front), lower rate on rear roll bar (or higher in front). They all have their trade offs though.
 
I tweaked it a bit and now it's working quite well, quite happy on how is drives ! Thanks all ^^

Now I need to save money to buy a 2nd one for drift purpose.
 
Wait till game is out for all the hardcore tunners there, I bet some forumals will change over GT4. So then your RX7 will be a super car.

By the way, can you tune that Rx7 to a GT Race car mod?

Nice! can you let us know what you did to get it feeling better?
 
Like you said, soften a bit the rear spring, played a bit with everything that could influence oversteer, I'll post setting if you're interested. I've actually download the GT4 guide was a big help. It's nto perfect yet but I love running it at tsukuba so hopefully I'll improve it a bit in the next couple days.

All teh RM cars are listed in the OFFICIAL CAR LIST.
 
As a fellow rotary head, could you PLEASE upload a video of the RE RX-7. I want to hear what that baby sounds like in GT5. I won't be playing GT5 for another 4 months so until then all I can rely on is videos :(

Cheers
