Anyone have any good setups for a Skyline R33?
It's fully tuned, and I've increased the spring rate(11 front, 12 rear) because I normally do when using racing soft tires, and it has 26/74 torque distribution.
The problem is at high speeds(especially on the Nordschleife), the car has very poor traction which causes it to spin out when breaking or cornering after a slight bump, probably due to the lack of front downforce. Other than that the car handles superbly, no understeer as you would expect with a regular 4WD car.
Any recommendations to compensate for the lack of downforce?

If you've already put a rear wing on it and increased the downforce then I would say it's down to the dampers and rideheight.

What settings are they at?

Haven't even touched my R33 in months, so I'll get back to you on it tomorrow when I have more time, since I'll be going online in a bit.

Cheers HU1CH13, It is a pretty easy to control car. Can't wait to swing it round some corners now.

Tell me if the setup is any good for you once you've had a test.

fully tuned up GTR V spec (every mod available for it I've got)
Just want to reduce the understeer it has and generally improve cornering a touch

I had a great set-up that worked well but I defaulted it by accident

Setup for reducing understeer? I'll try post it up for you in the next day or so, if I'm not lazy I'll try get one up for tonight for you.

Liverpool_96, I'll post it up in a couple hours once I get a chance to go on GT5

Warning this is strictly a drift car only. Thanks to it's extreme camber settings, this thing will not track in a straight line and does not have a high top speed thanks to it's short gearbox.

I have like 5 others cars I've tuned for drifting purposes haha

I'm to used to a couple of my other cars, I can't drift that RX-7 for shit anymore. Remember though set-ups and drifting is personal, I tuned that car for how I want it to handle and how I drift so it might not work well with you, but it's a good template.

You want the car low both at the front and at the rear to lower the car's centre of gravity and make it more controllable during the corners.

Give that setup above a bosh for the REM RX-7 I always use, might find drifting alot easier.

I'll have a try tomorrow. They need to do what they did in GT4, being able to have 4 or 5 set ups for each car. I'm sick of changing downforce and transmission for diffrent tracks

It's not realistic, but it would save me the hassle of buying 2 cars if I want one for drifting or normal track/racing use.
