pallett Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Ek9 buddy, i made a different setup just for spa though as i was really struggling for speed down the straights, i managed to go from hitting about 131 top speed to 140 and the difference is brilliant, also its front drive instead of rear Quote
KyleR Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) ah, bugger the boy has a PS3 - which he hardly ever uses now Go grab a copy of GT6 for PS3 and join our spin off series Edited January 25, 2014 by KyleR Quote
Ekona Posted January 25, 2014 Author Posted January 25, 2014 You guys sharing your tunes? I wouldn't mind a go with one, just to see. Quote
Sarnie Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Finally managed to get a decent lap from start to finish at spa 2:42.882 Quote
pallett Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Ill post a couple up when i get back later but on one condition your not allowed to be faster than me with it haha Quote
pallett Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Ok, heres a pretty competitive tune for an ek9 in terms of my driving style, for others this may be a complete waste but feel free to give it a try. CONVERSION - centrifugal supercharger and convert to rwd AERO - forza front bumper, forza wing, chargespeed rear bumper, c-west skirts TYRES - full race compound, BBS RE's although you can choose whatever you like at the end of the tune so long as it stays within the PI. DRIVETRAIN - race transmission, race diff HANDLING - race brakes, suspension, and both roll bars, full weight reduction ENGINE - race supercharger Now onto the tuning TYRES - 27.5 / 27.5 GEARING - 3.70 final drive 3.95 / 2.75 / 2.13 / 1.66 / 1.39 / 1.18 ALIGNMENT - camber -1.0 / -1.2 toe 0.2 / -0.3 caster 5.7 ROLL BARS - 27.82 / 27.41 SPRiNGS - 700.8 / 635.4 and lower the fully DAMPING - rebound 7.8 / 7.5 bump 3.8 / 3.5 AERO - full cornering front and rear BRAKE - 51% / 165% DIFF - 40% / 40% Quote
Ekona Posted January 25, 2014 Author Posted January 25, 2014 You could just have shared it online and we could've got it that way, but 10/10 for effort dude Quote
Sam Mcgoo Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 God I hate civics. But I'll have to try this just to see how good it is. Quote
pallett Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 I thought that after i had wrote it all out to be honest, but this way at least it gives everyone a base to start from and you can then tweak towards your own preferences and see the stock stats also as theres nòthing worse than changing something and not remembering your original settings if it turns crap.

spursmaddave Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 If nothing else this thread proves Ekona is rubbish on Forza Sent from the golf club... Quote
Ekona Posted January 25, 2014 Author Posted January 25, 2014 Sorry Pallett mate, didn't mean that to sound like I was having a pop, apologies if it came across that way Really appreciate you taking the time to post all that up, gives me a good clue as to where I'm going wrong with my tunes Quote

Or what am I missing? Quote
pallett Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Ekona, didnt seem that way at all fella, absolutely no offence taken. Sarnie, my guess is your starting to modify engine first, i always go conversion backwards through the options as at C class its more about handling and braking than outright power in most circumstances. You also lose some PI by adding the forza wing and bumper as the game classes top speed higher than handling and this should drop you back into C class. Ill upload the tune tomorow to the store after football and leave it unlocked so you can freely make changes as you please. Quote
Will370z Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Cheers for the tune, will give it a whirl. Happy to share some of mine but given some of you are whipping my times I doubt you would need them lol Quote
pallett Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Performance index i believe, basically the way the game classifies your car depending on the modifications you do. For example the optimum PI we are looking to achieve is C500 Quote
Suits Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Wow, that tune is so much different to how I set my EK9, it's cool as there are so many different ways to reach the desired class. I've been away for the weekend so haven't been on Forza for a while. I'll have to get back on it and see if I can back on top . I have a feeling that with my current tune I'm not going to get much quicker, even on a perfect lap I'm hindered by my 129mph top speed . Is the marketplace open now then ?? I thought it was still down ?? Quote
Ekona Posted January 30, 2014 Author Posted January 30, 2014 Apologies for not getting a specific challenge sorted out yet lads, I'm still currently Xbone and wheel-less until the replacements arrive. Hopefully soon! Quote
Sam Mcgoo Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) Hope you give yourself a stern telling off! Just a suggestion, but considering the forum we are on, shouldn't we really have an ongoing league table/challenge for the zeds? Eg. c-class 350z, c-class 370z, b-class 350z etc... Obviously we could still have other any car challenges, but just have a permanent zed one too? Edited January 30, 2014 by Sam Mcgoo Quote
Ekona Posted January 30, 2014 Author Posted January 30, 2014 Great idea! How about we start though with a bone stock 350Z, on say Alps Festival? Pure driving skill (or lack thereof on my part!) only, no tuning. Any aids the driver wants, though. Quote
Sam Mcgoo Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) Ok, Here's a starter, not really done that track much but just did a few laps. struggled to get a clean one, need some practice. Alps Festival - Stock 350z (C439) - clean laps only Sam McGoo - 02:12.458 I did this in rivals c class, but not sure how we will keep a proper track of this as I think as if you have done a faster lap of this track in a different car only that will show up on the leader board?

pallett Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 Alps Festival - Stock 350z (C439) - clean laps only Sam McGoo - 02:12.458 Pallett - 2:07.720 Quote
