February 6, 201411 yr Pete, just had a play around with the setups. And sent 2 back to you. Are you using manual or at transmission ? 1st one is your build with a slightly different tune. 2nd is a little tweak on tune. Slightly down on bhp but weighs a little less, but full race box. The gap between 3rd &4th gear may be a little long but it should be fast enough on 90% of tracks. Have a play and see what you think.
February 7, 201411 yr AT for me, when ever I use MT I always go down when I want to up Thanks for having a look, I have to wait till sat eve before I can have a look.
February 7, 201411 yr MT with clutch is the way forward that way you don't have to waste PI on aftermarket catches to speed up your changes lol. Surprised forza hasn't written it in to destroy your gearbox for doing it too fast like on the first one did damage for hitting the limiter
February 7, 201411 yr Author Oh I use manual gears :( I would say you will lose a bunch of time with the auto. I know on Forza 5 if you gear down to fast you do damage. Never driven with the manual gears and clutch. I would if I had a full set of pedals and steering wheel but doubt I could do that on a pad
February 7, 201411 yr If I use the wheel I go MT, just with pad you'll lose out more if you miss shift gears. I mucked up so many laps on the Top Gear challenge doing that with the pad I went back to AT
February 7, 201411 yr Author I'd try stick with the manual gears mate maybe it's just me but I'm sure does make a difference you can redline it before the auto kicking in and changes a gear ? I'd say that was one of the main reason for lose of power on the straights.
February 8, 201411 yr And shift times are so much slower in AT, though these subarus have sweet spots and I think that's the hardest thing to judge, now does that mean AT is getting it right or just shifting at a generic point Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
February 8, 201411 yr At always shifts up before the redline like a granny :-) least with mt you can go right up to the limiter. With the engine mods on my 22b you can go all the way to 8.5k before running onto the limiter. Same with downchanges at can't go back through the gears quick enough into corners. One of the things i learnt when 1st playing is stop trying to drive like you would on the road and just bang it back through the gears as fast as you can. Can carry much more speed into the corners and let the engine help with slowing you down. Manual with clutch is so hard on the pad. I gave up trying after about 5 laps :O
February 8, 201411 yr Author I've not tried I doubt I could with a pad I've been looking at the wheels for the Xbox one with the gear shifter and and pedals. £300 just for the wheel and standard accelerate and brake pedal. for the gear shift and added pedals with clutch is all extra :o
February 9, 201411 yr Im on xbox and ply forza 4 alot :D Whats the deal with nurburgring then? whats the car ppl are using and max PI etc? Ill give it a bash :)
February 9, 201411 yr Not anything serious at the mo. Just for fun set a clean lap :-) untill we get something sorted anything goes. I went round last time in a zonda R If you can make it we'll be on from half 8 thinght for final 3 races in this season
February 9, 201411 yr sounds good, what car do i need for the races tonight? is there a link on here for the race info or anything like that?
February 9, 201411 yr is this the one for tonight? http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/3502-forza-race-calendar-season-1/
February 9, 201411 yr Yep nurburg suzuka and silverstone. Any a class scooby any mods, only assists are driving line and at transmission for those who want it. And view Everything else forced off.
February 9, 201411 yr ok cool thanks for that, how many others are there doing it? ill have to get on later to see which car to use :)
February 9, 201411 yr Me, gambit, scooby pete, blackbosh, dogconker, mfnick (been awol for a couple weeks though) :-) Can't remember if theres anyone i've forgotten. Others keep making noises about joining but ate yet to.
February 9, 201411 yr Author Nice one will add you later Be nice to get a few more for the start of Season 2 I've posted on the Forza 4 forum but had nothing back :( And A600 is the cap if you hadn't guessed :) wouldn't want you tunning an R3 spec up and have to sort it out on the start line up :D And Stants Sunset Peninsula is also tonight so 4 races again tonight to end the season :)
February 9, 201411 yr Author I've just written the tracks down and about to put some times in what I've been doing is just setting a lap time work out roughly all 4 tracks are to try fit in an hour. but with the Nordschleife tonight I think it will be over an hour long tonight. :)
February 9, 201411 yr Author BlackBOSH using his 22b like a Hellfire missile on the 1st corner should be fine ;)
February 9, 201411 yr Author Here you go have a look :D http://youtu.be/vBhRqW6Fdsg I will also send you the S.O.C sticker that Dogconker did and amazing job of so you can if you want decorate your car :D
