Well i have had a chance to build a couple cars, I started 3 games with 110,000 I build an fc, fd and fe.



After having dumped close to the 100k in each model, I can say by far the rx-8 wins. It's a night and day difference. The handling, easy horsepower and all around feel of the car is a world of difference. I'm going to run with that game.



Anyone else tried some different cars?

how much have you tweaked the suspensions?



Spend some time with each car, and dial in every aspect of the suspension. In gt3 I had 3 different suspension setups for the FD, each for a different type of track. I had it so perfect i could drive the car with ease on every track.



i want gt4

OK what do you guys recommend for an FC suspension set up, O have never really fucked with the supesnsion before, all i ever did was drop it almost to the ground and put the shock rebound to 5. Gimmer some good set up schematics.

I also have no damn clue what I'm doing with suspension tuning.

im a nerd i got over 60 cars already and around 17% done



ive tried a few cars for drifting but its obvious this game is geared towards using a steering wheel. the snappy feel of the joystick steering and crummy throttle response make it a battle an a half in any race grip or drift





phins i thought the fd was faster in the game although i was toying around with the rx8 concept which is probably crappier than the real one im gonna go back and try now

I guess you would have to try for yourself, I was making a general statement of my experience, with the exception og the FC, which I spent the most of time on the suspension , I spent an equal amount of time on each car, with a series of the same 5 tracks, dollar for dollar the rx-8 is better.
