Built Turbo A on Motorland (normal)

Just ran a few laps and so far my best is 39.491 -- I can do much better

Just ran a few laps and so far my best is 39.491 -- I can do much better

39.160 -- still room for improvement. :middlefin

i like tsukuba. its a good short and sweet technical course and it gets hard to get your times down

Tsukuba is the poop. I'd like to see if my times can compare to yous guys. What car shall we go with?

I'll see what I can get on Laguna Seca in a MKIV, too.

Does anybody else have any of these cars?
Tom's Woodone GT500 Supra
Motul Pitwork GT500 Z
Amemiya Asparadrink GT300 RX7
Super Autobacs Apex GT300 MR2

I'm a big fan of the JGTC. I even went to the race last December in Fontana. Did anyone else?

Ok, Laguna Seca just wasn't doin' it for me. I rarely race there, anyway.

I decided to try a few different cars on Tsukuba, since that's where I usually race. These were all done on medium tires in the Tuner Car GP section since I'm not big on doing practice runs.

04 WRX STI Spec C-53.536 (a tad slow for me)
02 RX7 Spirit R Type A-52.490
03(?) Powerhouse Amuse S2000 R1 "Touge Monster"-53.161

I don't expect these times to be all that fabulous vs. some of you. I just enjoy the game, so I play it.

509HP 3.0 Turbo A - Motorland: 37.629
509HP 3.0 Turbo A - Tsukuba: 52.170

The Supras are just not sticky enough for these tight tracks, but I'll get some times on other cars I have

Suzuki GSX-R/4 - Tsukuba: 49.371
Spirit R RX-7 Type A - Tsukuba: 51.217
Suzuki Cappucino - Tsukuba 1.00.805

Those times in the Turbo A and RX7 at Tsukuba are pretty sassy. Were they practice runs or actual races?

Practice runs. I want to practice more with the RX-7 because I think it's capable of faster

53.934 Tsukuba so far... Turbo A

51.878 Tsukuba Turbo A (610 hp)

Damn! I was 1.2 seconds ahead of my ghost when I braked just a bit too late going into that last hardpin and looped it :(

54.992 on stock suspension so far with turbo a

51.914 now

I'll have to switch into practice mode to see what I can piece together.

51.195 :D Had to adjust the gear ratios...

I got a 49.954 (with N20).

Here are the settings if some of you want to try and see if you like them:

Full power mods ("original" turbo kit makes more power than stage4)
70-shot of N20 (used primarily on the long straight)
Racer Super-soft
brake bias: 3 front, 6 rear

Suspension:
17.5 front springs 16.0 rear
92 ride height
front shocks 8 (comp & rebound)
rear shocks 9
3 front camber
1.5 rear
0 toe all around
stabilizers set at 1

Transmission:

2.942 1st
2.189 2nd
1.672 3rd
1.342 4th
1.103 5th
0.910 6th

3.60 final

LSD:

10 intial
40 accel
20 decel

30 downforce front/rear

Once I'm done this endurance race I'm doing (only 8 hours to go), I'll make a few more runs at it.

Ran out of money so I need to make it back with a few big races!

In b-spec mode, my driver could only muster a 32.5 LOL he kept going off the track on corner exists...

tsukuba: 48:544

Supra Twin turbo R.
-no nitrous
-racing softs

edit: I don't even have a jza70 in my garage. But Joe's 48 was with a MKIV so :moon:

i take that back. i got a 50.756 with the TTR and a 48:544 with the supra RZ.

im gonna keep using the TTR though, ive taken the RZ as far as i can go from the SF tsukuba challenge, havent hit my peak in the TTR though. we shall see.


btw jeff, stop using n20 and see if you can cut that 49.9 again.

If we limit rules other than either 100% stock or 100% built people always end up using something other than what is specified. Fully built. I only use the N20 on the backstretch anyway...

joe your suck a wuss..... im stickin w/ the ma70

was 1.00.254 before i realized i was using my drift suspension setup...yea wheel spin...


after that hurdle its down to a 49.519 :) im coming for ya joe in MA70 fashion!

edit: thats w/o N2O for all you cheaters out there :tweetz:

49.579 -- 7m power baby!


edit: completely drained a full tank of nitrous in 1 lap though :(

48.603 :D

new gear settings:

1st 2.516
2nd 1.722
3rd 1.305
4th 1.042
5th .844
6th .660

final 4.530

I'm using n20 on the majority of the course now and actually running out about 1/2 way down the back straight

MKIIINA is at 49.519 w/o N20...

Yeah, I suck.

JZA70 at Tsukuba-50.708

if youre not using nitrous, thats not a bad time for the JZA

No nitrous. Not this guy.

if youre not using nitrous, thats not a bad time for the JZA

except its with the MA70 baby! nut im hitting a wall here w/o n20 as im not improving my times..... ah well maybe ill use the bottle and see what happens.

mess with your settings. leave the nitrous alone ;)


btw: on the Turbo A when you hit the red oil light, your car should get rodknock and make you buy a new car. rofl :snork_lac :moon:

48:785

NSX-R

off n20. cmon, where's the challenge:lol:

if youre not using nitrous, thats not a bad time for the JZA...Only because I did better than you in your own car. :lol: I know. I realize this is just a video game. I couldn't help myself, though.

As far as the NSX-R goes, Jeff has you beat in the Turbo A-there is your challenge.

Shame...

Just in case you guys don't now how ridiculous these lap times are...

Real-life Tsukuba lap time references:
-Nismo Skyline R34 GTR Z Tune (w/Naoki Hattori at the wheel)-1:01.15
-'02 Autobacs GT500 NSX (Keiichi Tsuchiya)-51.875-GT500 track record
-Ferrari 360 Challenge (Naoki Hattori)-1:02.44
-Mines Skyline R34 GTR w/600+HP (Manabu Orido)-58.890
-MCR Skyline R34 GTR w/600+HP (Shinichi Kobayashi)-59.599
-N2 AE86 race series TRD AE86 w/220HP (Keiichi Tsuchiya)-1:01.779
-Group A Nismo Skyline R32 GTR (Keiichi Tsuchiya)-1.00.216-with mis-matched gear ratios and skinnier tires than Group A cars used

i can always go back and use the supra again.

btw, theyre not THAT rediculous. no way is 51 the track record... the cyber evo went faster than that... the fastest laps on tsukuba are in the low 50s and 49s... theyre probably not using traction control. id imagine if you took off your tcs in the game youd be above those times. its reasonably accurate

...Only because I did better than you in your own car. :lol: I know. I realize this is just a video game. I couldn't help myself, though.

Gonna make a few more runs with other cars

Edit:

Supra RZ: 51.890
Skyline GT-R34: 51.820
Autobacs MR-S: 49.679
Motorsport Elise: 51.179

51.875 was the GT500 track record. It might have been broken by now-I think that was set during winter 03/04. I do know that it beat the previous record by over 1 second.

lets try and keep this thread civil......

SP 7M i might have my times a little funky. let me look. ill get back to you.

You do that, OneJoeZee.

MKIIINA-This thread is civil. There has been zero blood drawn up to this point.

And if I may add-Supraforums sh*t does not belong on this forum. We are happy with the way this one is.
