this setup is for grip and battle.

Aero C
3d gt wing
Carbon Fiber stock hood (stock hood is fine too)
Enkei JS+M best rim for S15 imo (RCII or RGII if you STILL need more grip)
stock mirrors
neons- your choice personally i dont think they add weight
sticker - same as neons.

or if you want a S15 thats agile but still grips, kinda like an FD. then try this:

Aero B
Aero B wing
JS+M
Carbon Fiber stock hood
Enkei JS+M
stock mirrors
neons - your choice
stickers - your choice

as you can see, most my parts other than aero kit and wing are the same, and occasionally change the rim usually between JS+M and RCII.

ok than, thx for that info. i will try your set up

hey guys i need some info about the watanabe 8 spokes rim. does it grip like hell? or does it slide a lot?

also, planning to "revive" my r32. current r32 setup:

aero c
jsm
rest stock
purple neons

overall, the setup is heavy and grippy good for battles but gets left behind when it comes to straights. catch-up is also a bit slow and reduces quite a lot of speed in corners...

lost to a bunch of evos recently due to lack of accel. planning to try stock aero and some grippy rims since i'm used to driving grip. someone please help me w/ the "grip" rim pls...

not to be mean, but sounds like you just have bad lines, or the people you race are just better than you. i mean..if its a boost on battle, the R32 should be able to keep up with a Evo. i mean yea a good setup does help a bit, but its more about the skill of the driver than a setup. ive had many times where my friends were using a "shitty" setup, and i test drove it and it drove average as in not as bad as they claimed it to be, but not good either. lol

but if you want a grippy rim try RGII. and since youre getting left behind, might want to try TCII while youre at it, its a very light rim, and its stiffens handling.

dunno bout u guys (and sorry a little off topic),, but imo

5 gear car's accel < 6 gear car's accel

alright, will try tcII then... get revenge on those evos.

btw, how do you compare advan rs w/ jsm?

Yes that's true but you get a lot more power from the high end rev's of a 5 gear compared to the 6 gear, because of the gear ratio's itself hence high speed attainment is possible.

the two rims handle differently -.-. JS+M is somewhat "balanced" semi grip, and controllable sliding when you need to slide. while the RS stiffens up your "handling"

does "stiffens up your handling" mean improve grip? or response?

Improve response.. grip is related to downforce...

hmm... r32:

advan rs or jsm or tcII (rims to be experimented)
rest stock
purple neons

if i'm going to change kit from aero c to stock kit, i wonder if it's gonna slide a lot like some players would say... and if i'm going to be pushed quite easily unlike w/ aero c, it's like a moving wall, sort of...

btw, anyone got a pic of a "pale blue metallic" r32? i'm thinking of changing colors coz it's been quite a long time already w/ my r32 being "dark blue pearl"...

Not on the subject but..

When we get the Nismo Sticker ( in my case a silvia ) does the car automaticaly turn grey? I see most skylines with the sticker are grey, though NeVeR seen a sivia...

Thanks!




----------

I was NeVeR here.

Yes.

@snow:
by observation of your setup i can say it'd be slidey. try this. i personally use it:

aero c
jsm
cf ducted hood
rest stock

@never:
light grey i remember

The R32 slides more naturally in DX. It's just the way they changed the car.

I didn't think it slided that much... I think it just got worse progressively...

r32 got downgraded again?

Compared to what? mt2 or mt3?

What "again"? It's the same car.

i mean mt2 then downgraded at mt3 then downgraded again at dx?

Don't you have one?

Nope, pretty much stayed the same from MT3 to DX.

It didn't get downgraded that much from mt2 to mt3... and stayed the same for dx...

hmmm.... maybe i should borrow a friend's r33 sometime.... literally, no one uses it in my area. maybe it can be a headturner in the arcade... driven it back then... it got stubborn steering... if i could lighten it up then....
