I appreciate that you walk through why you change what you change, and how that specifically affects the car. I’ve watched most if not all of your tuning tutorials but even still it’s nice to be reminded since there are so many variables to understand
I absolutely love Rotary Swaps in small cars and I'm glad you're giving this one a second chance. The Mazda3 with the Rotary could be another fun option given its a much more modern hatch although that might remove the monster aspect. Fantastic performance from this little thing this time, the cockpit shows just showed how much of a menace this was to drive lol
One thing I'm curious about is tires. I typically run either Racing Hard or Sport Soft on my Brappuccino because it, for the most part, eliminates the bouncing and the car becomes WAY more predictable. I'm wondering if that would result in a faster or slower time. I would assume that as long as you've got the car figured out on Racing Soft tires, they would still ultimately get a faster time. On my setup, I just can't get the car to behave with RS tires. On Hards, it's pretty good though. I use the Sport Soft on the Tokyo Expressway grind though, since the track is damp. Dead easy win even with the fuel map on 6 and high RPM turbo.
The car works really well on sports tyres. The main reason RS tyres are difficult is because the car seems to have a high centre of gravity, and wants to topple over, which the max grip RS tyres makes worse. RS tyres will still be faster overall if you can get them working, which I've just about managed.
Try raising the expansion and compression for the bouncing it might help I can't recall wich car I did it for but it helped but she seems to be taimed now cudos
@ The front height isn't too low, otherwise I'd be hitting the arches and bump-steering into a wall. The toe angle is what stabilises the car in the first place. Maxing out the spring rates will make the Cappuccino roll over whenever you hit a kerb, and maxing rear aero will cause more front end lift on high speed sections. The set-up you're telling me to use is more or less what I ran in the previous video on this car where it managed a 6:42 because I had to avoid the kerbs so much. This setup was nearly 15 seconds faster.
The car just won't brake straight and if you try to correct it, you will lose the rear. It's a serious problem that GT7 has. I'd say almost all AWD and MR cars have this problem.
@@fossilfueled27 The 911 turbo s with 1000 HP is a mess when braking. The car just goes sideways immediately. I'll try what you say for sure and thanks for doing all this tests. They are fun.
@@AndresGrimace I honestly found the Audi R8 and Gallardo worse. The 911 is fairly tame once tweaked so you shouldn't have too much trouble sorting it.

Off to Tokyo to add some Suzuki paint to the walls.
Fossil Fueled at 8:52 do you have a picture of the full list somehwere?
Nice work Bro. It really works for Tokyo Expressway. My fastest lap was 2.06 in a clean race.
yaaaaas!!! cheers man, be giving this a shot tomorrow.
Great video, I hope you do the GT3RS 16 soon with the Turbo S swap, It's a great swap but has some serious lift off over steer

I always take my cappuccinos with a double shot of oh great heavens
Alrighty, heres the mazuki rxapuccino.
My fleet of cappuccinos all have RH on the front and RS on the back. 👍👍
That had to be my solution for the Plymouth Superbird and Abarth 595, but I avoid it if I can.
Please tame the mazda 3 with 787b engine swap. I love that car but I'm really struggling to get a proper tuning on it

I tried it with this one and didn't have any luck, but you're right, it usually helps.
🙂👍
PLEASE do MX-5 touring car with the R26B 4 rotor from the 787B, 1900lbs with 690hp
Can I put in a request for the Lexus V8 powered Toyota crown athletic!!!

max out your aero, spring rates, and dampers, then give the car a lot of rake. you have way too much toe.
pretty sure your front ride height is too low for this track as well, at least with wide offset wheels.

It's a serious problem that GT7 has. I'd say almost all AWD and MR cars have this problem.
You can try adding the brake balance controller and trying adding more brakes to the rear or front to see if it helps balance the car a bit.
@brettanderson6743 it should be to the front, because the car loses the rear
With 4WD cars you can increase initial torque at the front. With MR cars you can add front toe out or front ballast.
