THE competition thread: Week 2

Alrighty then folks. I'm starting up Week 2 of this fine little competition. Here's the rules:


-$80k for car + parts
-EVERY exspense must be recorded
-Best lap around around Tsukuba (photo proof welcome)
-You can enter multiple entries, but they must be of different cars, and already posted times can be edited, but you must make me aware of that
-Japanese Production cars only!!!!!!
-No nitrous. Remember the saying, babies have bottles, rela men get blown.

Good luck and get out there and lay down some times.

Re: THE competition thread: Week 2

Ok, heres my second car, i was pretty happy with the results.
1993 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec N1: 17,814
oil: 50
rims: 500
race exhaust: 4800
brakes: 4700
chip: 1500
stg 1 lightening: 1200
stg 2 lightening: 5500
race flywheel: 1050
race intercooler: 3000
race R2 tires: 10500
stg 2 turbo kit: 13500
original suspension: 16,200

Total: $79,586

Best Time: 54.913

The thing that worked best for me was bumping up the understeer control and turning down the traction control. It took me about 25 laps total to get that time. Lots of 55's and finally a 54! So that's my new best time and it looks like i'm still in the lead so I guess i'll wait till someone beats it before I try again.

Re: THE competition thread: Week 2

you run with traction control? I never use it it conflicts with my driving style and slows me down
