Close Topic Options

Um... mine is on amateur... but it doesn't matter if you have the DFP because this option is disabled for it . Everything else is on for me, because I've never touched the options for it.

its disabled for the DFP? i never knew that, why is it even on there then? Anyways the other options make driving feel weird, especially the steering assistance.

hey you guys got any good drift settings for nismo xanavi r34? just wanna try and drift with it

car: Nissan SKyline R34
parts: N1
settings:turn off aids

New drifting discoveries

Finally, the way of drifting is possible, but it still takes a lot of practice to get drift control right.
Personally I am still working on the control part so it isn't much speed involved yet.
Now how to drift the car is actually quite funny when you think of it but it is going to cost money, not real money though...

Needed: Stage 1 weight reduction (Not a must have but you will feel the need for it later)
3 plate racing clutch (For direct torque)
Racing Flywheel (For better acceleration and more torque at the wheels)
Carbon rear axle (Same as for flywheel)
Fully adjustable suspension (This is a 100% must, without this you can forget sliding)
Sports brakes and brake controller (Needed for brake drifting)
Tires, I recommend Sports Medium tires as they are suited to the power and have an ok amount of grip, but I do NOT recommend the N series of tires as they give strong understeer and a lot of power overs that can be hard to control.

Some HP, how much is up to you but I recommend in the area's of 300 to 450 HP, but that is something you have to choose though.


Suspension tuning:

Basically here is the funny part, set the values for spring as low as possible, around 4.0 should do the trick, do it for both the front and rear.
Then RAISE the car, take it as high as it can go.
All shocks and anti roll bars down to level 1, this will create an uber soft suspension that will shift a lot of weight, enough to overload most tires.

As for camber, set the rear to 0.0 and front to 4.0 as this will give the front better contact patch when turning than the rear.


Brake tuning:

This is easy, around Level 2 or 3 at the front and 24 at the rear.
This will lean as much towards oversteer as possible when you slam on the brakes, but keep in mind, slam too hard and you will understeer.


RECOMMENDED, Weight distrubution:

Remember the physics lessons on front heavy and rear heavy?
Remember that MR cars tends to be oversteer happy?

Now if you want easy drifting you need to make the car rear heavy, I recommended Stage 1 weight reduction to compensate for the extra weight you will want to add to the rear of the car.
For a lot of lift off action slam in 200KG of Ballast in the rear.
Just move the balance indicator all the way to the right.

And finally, turn off the driving aids, all of them and hit the track.
Congratulations on your first drift car.
My most succesful drifter now is an R34 GT-R Vspec, it can almost perform brake drifts like in GT3, almostly and it is a lot of fun to drive.

My next project is a FC, I will post exact settings when I make it work.

My R1 S2K project was sucessful.It can perfrom well in grip driving and exibition drift(I'm not into fast drift lol.).First thing I did was 302HP with racing suspension,semi-racing flywheel and all the upgrades.Economy tires,level 1 wiegh reduction.All I did was drift around and practice how to control the car.After I know how to control the car,I upgraded the car and put 107 more HP with economy tires.Well it's kinda hard to control the car with 409HP in it.Just practice and you'll get it.

My next project is 300ZX and sil-80.

anyone have any problems while downshifting in turns and it not responding right away? like i cant start a drift and downshift to spin the tires like i want. any settings or suggestions?

hmmmmm........I always downshift when i'm in the middle of a drift.Try to pump your acceleration if you want to continue.

wat r good settings 4 the trueno ss version??

Hey just thought i'd drop my Sil-80 settings

Try to lower your rate setting and change your transmission setting.IM me on aim if you have one.(Too lazy to post it.)

pls type it i need the whole thing

I just tried a few FRs on GT4 without changing the settings too much (I just changed the tires, brakes and suspensions) and I disabled all aids. And finally I can drift easily like that. I think that it is even faster than before with all my tuning. I wanted to know is there anyone here who drive the same way ?

1 86 drift (400Ko)

1 drift FC (2 videos but it's the same drift) (3Mo)

At first I used the settings I found on GTplanet but the car was not moving like I wanted and now I can drive any fr car like I want just by disabling the aids.

I don't know whether I'm posting this correct here since I only have a PSX with GT2, but my AE86 drift settings are (I'm still a noob ):

Semi race suspension
TYRES FRONT Sports TYRES REAR Normal (this seems to make it slide soo much easier)
Racing Brakes/Brake Controller
Twin Plate Clutch,
normal LSD and Driveshaft
N.A. Tune Stage 2
Racing Performance Chip
Racing Muffler and Air Cleaner

Damn Ryosuke those drifts are kick ass (and GT4 looks soo awesome, i want a PS2 sponsor me! )

BTW could you maybe tell me with what app and codec you recorded those movies (I do have a TV Tuner in my PC and have my PSX hooked up to it already, only my recording settings suck)

Well I am using a soft who came with my graphic card (Winfast PVR) but it onl works with Vivo Card (like my GF FX5900 ultra)
Yeah GT4 is amazing and compared to GT2, well I cannot compare because the level is too different

do you people know any good guidelines for FF drifting/sliding?

I dont know much about FF drifting but I think that if you raise the front spring much higher than the rear that should be good. Well you can also put different tires to front and rear but it is not good for the balance of the car. I'm going to try different settings. I'll tell you soon.

Ok, I just tried with an EK9 :
