I don't think I am the only one who is thinking this... but I don't see much threads regarding this. Have you guys thought about replicating your RL car setup into the game and see how if feels different/same/crappy/good/sad?
I am trying to do this and any input/correction would be appreciated.
Car: 2002 Subaru WRX (in game, I guess 00' STI will have to do since they don't have a regular WRX)
Power mods: I won't be doing any engine mods or turbo upgrade b/c I think STI already over powers my car with all the mods I have (which isn't much ^^;; )
Suspension: Not sure which suspension kit I need to buy... read below...
Spring Rate:
I have a coilover that has a spring rate of 325 lb/in (F) and 225 lb/in (R). I did a little math and it came out to 5.8 kgf/mm (F) 4.0 kgf/mm (R). Can anyone varify this?
Damper:
The coilover is 24 way adjustable... it is set at 20 (F) and 22 (R). Since GT4 has 1~10 scale and my coilover has 1~24 scale, I guess I'll have to use a ratio to figure this out... so... it comes out to 8 (F) and 9 (R) in GT4 setting.
Ride Height:
I lowered the car about an inch from stock height.... so I guess I'll lower the car 25 mm from the original setting...
Camber: I have -1.8 (F) and 0.0 (R) camber dialed in on my car... so... will use same setting.
Toe: All zeroed out...
Stablelizer bar: I am not really sure how I need to set this up... I have 20 mm front sway bar and 24 mm rear sway bar... it is a 2 mm upgrade in the front and 4 mm upgrade in the back (I believe the stock cars have 18 mm front bar and 20 mm rear bar)... so increase the setting to 6 (F) and 8 (R)? Help me out here? hehe ^^;;;
Drivetrain: I don't have 6 gears on my car, but I'll have to live with it...
Clutch: I upgrade my clutch sport... so I guess sport clutch for GT4
Flywheel: I resurfaced and lightened the stock flywheel... so sports flywheel in GT4?
No other upgrade from drivetrain
Brakes:
No upgrade since all I upgraded was SS lines, new fluids, and pads.
Tire:
Not sure about this one either... I use Falken ST-115... N2?
Other:
No weight reduction, roll cage, but will do chassis refresh.
Rims:
I have rota torques (which is a replica of WORK Emotion wheel... can't seem to find one that looks like it... if anyone knows which wheel it is please let me know
)
Did I forget anything?
I will be driving this on autumn ring mini since I used to AutoX with this car.. hopefully it will be fun...
Please add any comments or changes that you think I need to do to make it as realistic as possible? Thanks!
edit: added wheel info... I know it doesn't matter for performance... but just trying to replicate my car into GT4 as closely as possible
