Quote from Mojo1987 :

Here, i have done some crash tests with my one year old scirocco... maybe scawen can use this for a realistic damage model ;D

(damage was caused by a flying Golf 3, it was not my fault, i get a new scirocco in february)

thats a VW for ya

thanks man i didnt exactly understand (grade 9 maths lvl only) but im sure if i study a little ill get it


this is as far as i got

RPM gear ratio diff ratio tyre size in mm
1 1.00 3.45 4,76.8mm = 1644,96mm pm <wrong i think



100 kp = 27.7778 mps
1666.668 mpm x.06 = KPH



17x45 is the rim size and side wall size so its 17 inchs and 45mm

i found this
http://www.offroaders.com/info ... orner/reading/mph-rpm.htm

and was wondering if someone could make a maths equation to make it more simple and in following this. RPM, GEAR RATIO, DIFF RATIO, TYRE SIZE

example
at 5000 RPM with a ratio of .900 and 3.45 diff gears and 17x45 tyres what speed would the car be running? i need it in KPH if anyone can help

Quote from tristancliffe :

I too would like to know the mod obsolum refers to. I've tried most that people have said "this one is great", and always been disappointed.

yer i totaly agree

i enjoy my custom mod but maybe its cause i spent hours getting the car to feel a little better....

sounds like it might be worth seting up my g25 again

Quote from puliukk0 :

Sorry im "bit" drunk, but i have (sh*tty?) Escort RST (200bhp) and i have 1 bar all gears. First and second burn rubber but whatever...

My mates ex 200sx (and size of hx50 turbo) got 1.2 first and second gear and 3-5th gears 1bar. Setup was 1bar. Also it burn rubber at 3rd gear easily etc...

My friends got some, drift spec R33 GTST, Audi S4, Ibiza FR's, Cosworth's etc and some na cars (e39 M5, Z3 M, rally cars etc). Many other cars also.

You can get in neutral full boost in lc.
You can get in 1st and 2nd gear full boost, so whats that problem?
You can get nicely tuned turbo engine, but it also goes well in city.
All you need is nice setup, good turbo etc.

Btw, SR engines are bit laggy/hi revving...

I dont wanna say that lfs sucks or something. Its good, but many game is catching that "lead". Just telling my opinion...

so ur friends car was boost spiking what kinda controler was if it was acuator controled was it internaly gated or externaly?

my car used to spike with a old boost controler that was shit it was to slow and would spike 4 psi over thats 18 psi while spining the tyres

both my car and my brothers car (mine RB30ET) (his RB25DET) wont hit full boost in 1st mine cant hit full boost in 2nd his can with 265's but our tq curves are stupidly differnt i got about 300 RWHP 5800 RPM and 550NM of tq 4500 RPM on 14 psi he has about 400 RWHP 6900 RPM and 470 nm of tq 5800 RPM 14 psi. I run a custom boost controler bleed valve, he runs a power FC and AVCR on a HKS-GTRS

it comes down to so many things but im a little scared of a 200sx hitting that boost in first gear (on the limiter?) (nos?)

what was the turbo AR/trim?

Quote from Tomba(FIN) :

2nd: XRT's boost pressures. It takes 0,8bar @ 6000rpm e.g in first gear, the turbo doesn't give pressure early enough.
Really the car tires would just spin through the whole 1st gear if it gave pressure. Also in 1st and 2nd gear the pressures would be higher because it didn't close the wastegate in time. It feels like the car doesn't get boost pressure.

i dont know what back yard turbo shit box's ur mate drives or works on but in EVERY turbo car i have been in or driven u cant get close to full boost in first at ALL even a pulsar GTI-R running 18 psi 4WD couldnt hit full boost in first only managed around 12 psi with 4 wheels spining.

most turbo cars will achive max boost in 3rd 4th 5th gear (manuals) due to engine load and alot of other things.

tell ur friend to spend a few years driving turbo'ed cars and replacing them tuning ECU's power curves and eletronic boost controlers and then come back and see if he still thinks this

the boost in lfs is alot better now then it used to be

Quote from obsolum :

Lol, you have it the wrong way around. LFS can't tip rFactor (with the right mods and properly set up) or iRacing.

I'm willing to bet you haven't bothered trying quality mods for rFactor. Your loss LFS doesn't even come close IMO.

what mod's is this u speak of? my rfactor directory is 4 gig of mods the only mod i like is the skyline one that was customized by me for a more realistic feel

Quote from ajp71 :

Randomly lowering a car with springs of unknown stiffness is a totally pointless exercise, bound to make things worse.

did u read what car he had even lighting it on fire will make it better


best thing to do is take it out urself and u should know what NEEDS to be done after that

my trackday/street car has alot done to it but its not very streetable anymore on legal sized tyres and the locked diff makes things anoying on public roads.

i compleetly dissagree i would prefer a nice kink befor the sector and then a sweeping left during the down hill or even right after so u have to turn in during the down hill part. i think it would make the track ALOT more intresting

like this pic

yer i got mine from game traders for 430$ think they are around 370$ now

why won't limewire connect
why won't itunes open
why won't god heal amputees
why won't he marry me
why won't he propose


lol is it because im black?

having a fap

Quote from theirishnoob :

actually learning for yourself, you can Actually feel what the car is doing rather then looking, Though the spectator sees more of the game.... its better in real life: nothing compares to real life in fairness.

yer i find in real life if i just try it i can normaly pull it off alot better then if i think about it to much.

my advise think less practice more

im a cheater can u spot me?

the ffb on my old ps2 DFP was ok a little vauge compaired to the G25 but it was and still is a good wheel.

i had a 270 deg wheel and no shifter when i first started playing lfs and i lost ALOT of time going to the H shifter and full degs but now im faster then i used to be and can drift better then i used to :P.

yer i played NFS shift installed the game 20mins setup steering wheel as best as i could 2 hr's 5 mins of driving/drifting deleated game.


NFS I WANT MY 2 hrs and 25 mins back

i got my old LFS setup when i got my G25 my old setup is

DFP 900deg wheel act-lab clutch and shifter i got the hole act-lab pedel set but they got a bit gay so i only used the clutch and shifter.

my g25 was only 400$ AUD the act-labs shifter its self was 200$ lol
