53 seconds here we come.

beatcha to it! I put a wing on my 738bhp '89 GTR - 53.829!

then I decided to try other GTRs to see if any can get more power.

GTR VSpec N1 '93 749bhp 54.003 with wing. haven't tried any others yet.

Also got a Honda NSX '01 with 462bhp and wing to 54.673. Not bad for the power its got. Can't seem to turbo any of the NSX's :)

IM A NERD NOW.

51.86 in the koingseggC8XS(whatever it is) how ever u spell it in forza.

does it count?

from a different game on a different platform in a non-JDM car? yeah, no worries! sounds like a fair comparison!

Mind telling me your set up's for these 2 cars to get these times?

fark that is quick for a 4wd car! i find that all the 4wd cars i drive have too much understeer to run quick times but now i stand corrected! tried the r34 v2 N1 with about 700ps or something close to that and could only manage a low 55. i think i had the suspension a little too hard for sports tyres but with 12kg spring front and rear

here you go. try them out and see how you go...

both have Sport Soft tyres of course. I won't list every part I bought because its enough typing already, just assume its done unless I specifically say it isn't. I never use NOS, and have never used the weight balance settings either - both of those feel like cheating...

wow you run really soft suspension. on the rx7 i run 12 and 10 spring and 10 and 9 damper. Will have to try no lsd in the gtr and see how i go. got a bit closer to the 53 last night, 54.087! anyone tried messing with the brake bias with any success?

  • 2 weeks later...

been trying other GTR's and found a winner- R34 GTR 53.007!

A 52 should be possible but it will have to be a pretty damn good lap. not an easy car to drive though - it needs the throttle fed in progressively out of corners and how well you do that makes or breaks the lap time.

i think we have a winner!!!!

52.098!!!!!!!!!!!! on sports tyres!!!!! in a rear wheel drive car!!!!!

the gillet vertigo race car '04. mod it full up, leave all the setting stock except for the gear ratios at about 11, traction control at 3, and no NOS

and i'd can say for sure that 51's are possible with this car. i have been faster to the second corner than the ghost of that time, but f**k up the entry and run too wide, or cut to sharp and hit the ripple strip.

Edited by mad082
other people have done laps in non jap cars. and i class the vertigo in the same class as any car bought from a tuning company (not original manufacturer).

the game specifies if it is a race car in the car's title - eg "Gillet Vertigo Race Car". Its in the same class as the other race cars in the game. You won't find "race car" in the title of any of the other cars we've used.

    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
