My setting:
- Aero set A
- Wingless
- Watanabe eight spoke
- stock mirror
- no sticker and neons
- stock bonnet

Same like the devil Z except "wingless"

It runs great on Osaka,Wangan,Yokohane

wow, osaka AND wangan. I WILL try that out. But I also placed in certain setups that I tink may work.... I dunno. Re-read my last post.

O what about places like hakone?

i was thinking about building one are they worth it?
whats your set up?

The Z32 will be worth every cent of yours if you are not taking any imbas like the evo8/9 into account...
It's one of the best cars I have driven so far...
And IMO it's the best heavy weight FR in MT3...

Has great acceleration...think a 5 geared Z33
Has not bad handling...way better than the Z33
Has good enough top speed to smoke imbalanced top tier cars in wangan...
The only downside to it is sometimes it loses alot of speed when you oversteer...
And of cuz...too wide for it's own good...
I had trouble trying to adapt to it while I switched to it from my FD lol...

I'm not really sure about the set up yet...but the current one works really good for me....

Aero A
TE37 or 27 (i forgot which one but it's the very 1st yokohama rim u get)
GT-straight
Ducted FRP hood

well it works good for me.

cool I see an aero A for acceleration. The bonnet would most likely be carbon ducted (acceleration) or normal ducted (grip).

I guess the WRC tarmac rims are for grip cos of rally. TCII (lvl 21) rims for acceleration cos of lightness. lol but I am thinkin that if i could go further and unlock more rims, mayb the RCII (lvl 33) and RGII (lvl 39).

aero A with wing is quite good, but it wouldn matter if it is wingless, til u get the 3D wings at lvl 17. and aero mirrors are good for just aero-dynamics wink2.gif. lvl 30.

I like your setup but I will make some changes there, to increase its performance.

well look at mine and see how you like it.


For More Grip: 4 grip, 3 acceleration.
aero A (lvl 1) w/out wing (acceleration)
Rays TE37 (lvl 2) (grip)
3d wing (lvl 17) (both)
Carbon Hood with Duct (lvl 26) (both)
Aero Mirrors (lvl 30) (grip)

For More Acceleration: 4 acceleration, 3 grip.
aero A (lvl 1) w/out wing (acceleration)
Watanabe eight spoke (lvl 3) (acceleration)
3d wing (lvl 17) (both)
Carbon Hood with Duct (lvl 26) (both)
Aero Mirrors (lvl 30) (grip)


OR I did this for acceleration but it will take longer. (but it is kind of better)

aero set A (lvl 1) w/out wing (acceleration)
Watanabe eight spoke (lvl 3) (acceleration)
Yokohama Super Adavanced (Racing Ver.2) (lvl 5) (acceleration) (replacing lvl 3)
duct w/ no carbon (lvl 14) (both grip and acceleration)
3d wing (lvl 17) (both)
carbon hood with duct (lvl 26) (both) (replacing lvl 14)
YOKOHAMA ADVAN RCII (lvl 33) (acceleration) (replacing lvl 5)
YOKOHAMA ADVAN RGII (lvl 39) (acceleration) (replacing lvl 33)

at the end the ratio of acceleration to grip is, 4:2. you will slide abit but your acceleration will get you out of it quickly.

Well take what you will. But that is just me.

all those setups look great. but well i could careless about the wings rims and stuff like that for appearence i know they add grip, acceleration, etc. but eh. i think during battles its all the driver anyways.

however i would go with that setup. maybe not so much the 3D wing but i havn't seen how it looks on the car. so lol

oh and death +1 for the "cant wait" in your sig biggrin.gif let me know how it goes oh and that cant wait should be a title too lol

oh and by the way before i even saw your name i was gonna name my z32 DEATH dont get mad lol turned.gif

lol the 3D wings keep it steamlined (like the s30z isnt streamline enough) and thus givin it better acceleration AND the weight keeps it on the floor for better grip. tongue.gif

well i have read this entire thread twice and i do remember them talkin bout setups for the z32. But I heard the z32 is similar to the z33 for it has great top speed and acceleration, so I recommend u gettin a aero kit for grip/handling. So mayb aero kit C? It makes ur car heavier, so it will decrease the acceleration a touch. But if you take my other kit for my s30z, but with more grip. I bet it will do fine. Or you can try out this....

- aero kit C (lvl 24) (grip)
- 3D wings (lvl 17) (both)
- Rays TE37 (lvl 2) (grip) OR ENKEI WRC TARMAC EVO FORGED (lvl 10) (grip)
- duct w/ no carbon (lvl 14) (both but more to the grip) OR carbon hood with duct (lvl 26) (both but more to the acceleration)
- aero mirrors (lvl 30) (acceleration)

Acceleration:Grip/Handling ratio is - 3:4

The Z32 is definitely an underrated car. I've used it briefly and it was similar to the Z33 but without the tail-swinging...
