Hot Rides: Custom Settings Showcase III

Here it is, the third installment of the infamous Hot Rides: Custom Settings Showcase thread. There are going to be a few new rules this time, so bear with me.

First of all, here are the links to the two previous threads.

Hot Rides: Custom Settings Showcase

Hot Rides: Custom Settings Showcase II

Now, here are the guidelines for this thread:

quote Johnny_G
People can come on here and post special settings they have for their cars. Tell us exactly what changes you made, and then we can try them out and see how they handle.

Here's how it will work.

Be sure to Mention:
Model (color)
Any new parts purchased
All settings

Make sure you include all the settings, even the ones that you did not change. Many people have already tuned their cars and will not have the original settings available to them. Make sure you include everything.

Also, feel free to request settings for a car or ask questions on tuning in general.
Also, I am now opening this thread to any discussion on tuning or upgrading a car. If you wish to ask any questions about the specifics of tuning or are looking for general tips to solve a problem please post those here.


Color Coding

I am now also introducing a color coding system for this thread to make it easier to identify certain posts. Please follow this guideline when making a post:

  • Navy - Any settings you post

  • Red - Any requests for settings

  • Purple - Any commentary or feedback on settings

  • Green - Any questions or answers to do with tuning or adapting a vehicle

    re: Hot Rides: Custom Settings Showcase III

    The settings log bellow will function the same as the log in the first two threads. I will update it as time passes to make it easier to locate custom settings throughout the thread. Also, be sure to check here first before requesting settings for a certain car. Also make sure to check the previous threads.

    This car was really fun to work with. I had been driving it for a while but I never really got around to fine tuning it.

    The setup is nice and loose with just the right amount of oversteer, but the car is still very managable. This is clearly seen with the impressive acceleration and lap times it can put up. Although the car could go faster than 220 there is no need for it as it will never get up to that speed anyways (except on the test course). By governing the speed there the car can attain excellent acceleration and traction.

    It has a remarkable amount of traction even with the slick tires meaning that this car can be used in a race situation without much worry being given to tire wear. You generally will only need to pit every seven laps or so with these tires.

    Overall I think you'll be pleased with the setup - I certainly was. The car is fun and easy to drive but it's still capable of an excellent performance.

    What do you mean, exactly? Do you want to know which car has the highest top speed?

    I think he means what car to use for a car on tracks like Super Speed Way and the Test Track. If that's what he means, an Escudo with a stage four turbo, or the GT-1 and the 787B.

    You should try my RUF RGT settings on page 5 of the first Hot Rides thread (look for a link at the top of this thread). My quarter mile with that car is about 9.1 seconds.

    re: Hot Rides: Custom Settings Showcase III

    ok, first of all. an apologie...i said that these settings would be up here much sooner, but due to a number of reasons, they havent been...but...here they are, so without further adue...

    Honda/Acura Integra

    all top parts added, plus medium hard tires for the longer races!

    spring rate - 6.5/10.4
    ride height - 91/91
    damper bound - 6/6
    damper rebound - 7/7
    camber angle - 1.8/0.8
    toe angle - 0/0
    stabilisers - 1/2
    brake balance - 6/17
    LSD init - 30
    LSD acc - 38
    LSD dec - 26
    gear auto - 24
    1st - 2.706
    2nd - 1.902
    3rd - 1.435
    4th - 1.116
    5th - 0.914
    6th - 0.782
    final - 4.875
    ASM - 2
    TCS - 2


    ok, the key point to driving this car is throttle control! due to its amount of power, and FF drivetrain in understeers A LOT...ive tryed to take as much of this out as possible...but...just dont go all out on sharp corners, as this car simply wont be able to cope with it!
    ho9wever, i may have tuned it wrongly, so if someone like johnny could take a look at them and add any points they see fit, it would be very much appreciated! hope you like the settings, but just try them and see...
