Nissan SKYLINE GT-R R34 TC

Nissan SKYLINE GT-R R34 TCIf you have been following my tunes for a while you will notice I prefer very stiff suspension. With stiff suspension on the cars you get a lot more control and can feel the road better. However stiff suspension is not always what you want. This car here is the best example of that. It is one of the TC cars so it's already really good than I put stiffer suspension on and it became better. The person who requested this specifically wanted it for really rough tracks with lots of bumps and hills. I decided I'd try to reduce the stiffness and see how that goes. The softer the suspension is the easier it is to absorb the bumps. Best move I could of ever done. It feels weird when I drive it since it grips the bumps better rather than fly over them like I'm used to, but the times speak for themselves. I am at least 2 seconds faster everywhere I drive compared to the stiff one I did. This car in general is crazy fast too so prepare to have your mind blown. I did a 6:15 on Nurburgring and I suck at that track. That means if you are good and have more miles on the car you could probably get in the 5's. Scary fast.
