I was never really good with tuning for drift, so I downloaded one for my Subaru BRZ and it pretty much had everything I wanted, except I couldn’t really drive my car in a straight line over 60mph…Anyone wanna help me out with a tune setup?
Its really great for the most part (in my opinion); It has great acceleration and downforce, but I literally can’t drive it in a straight line over 50mph. It starts to swerve and I lose control, which makes drifting on bigger tracks really hard, because I can’t get to a high enough speed to finish turns. I’d like to have exactly what I have going on with this car, except not being able to drive in a straight line at higher speeds. I basically like high speed and high control with considerable oversteer to make up for the control. Thanks both of you!
You probably have too much camber. That’s what affects straight line stability, so I’d recommend reducing it to a comfortable amount. Would you please tell me how you like your cars to handle and how much horsepower you’re comfortable with, so that I can try and build a car for you?
Alright, thanks.
It’s pushing 632 HP, so anywhere around there is great, but it’s also in R class, so if lower horsepower is necessary that’s fine. I was running with around 450 HP before I used this tune, and I prefer a lot of acceleration. With control, I like the car slick and easy to throw around corners, but still have a decent amount of stability.
I’ll be honest, 632 is A LOT of hp in that little car. 450-550 is good for me, personally. Okay thanks, I’ll do my best to make a tune that suits you. Send me a message on Xbox live. My gt is the same as my username here.
Are you able to view the Tune you already had?
Just out of curiosity, I’m wondering what the camber/toe settings are. They are certainly the source of the straight line instability but I am curious how badly overdone they are.
@ END Impulse - Thanks! And if it doesn’t turn out that great, or you’d think it’d be better off with a stock motor, then go with that for sure! I’m just looking to get the most out of my BRZ.
@ SergeantPounder - No, I wish, because I genuinely loved the tune…besides the camber/toe issue.
I’ll be honest, basically anyone on DIS and xPanda Oreosx know more because they’ve played forza 5 longer, but I’ve learned a lot myself since I’ve gotten it. Thanks Sarge. Hmu anytime if you wanna slide.
