If you have Forza Motorsports

I have been playing around with forza motorsports on the Xbox and found a good match for making the closest thing to a maxima (2000 5 speed). I used a VW VR6 Jetta. bought the best tranny and put all the gear ratios in and final drive as follows:

Final Drive - 3.823
1st - 3.29
2nd - 1.85
3rd - 1.272
4th - 0.95
5th - 0.79

You will have to lighten it a bit cuz I think the average curb weight of a maxima is 3100 lbs and the jetta is above that. add the 2nd lvl of fuel upgrade and it comes out to 221hp 214lbs of tq i think, the tune made it exact but changes the RPM range. Its fun to add to see how our cars would react to different things and funny how accurate it is. I got the SAME time in the 1\4 Mile in real life as I did when i made my car this way in the game.

Anyway just thought I would share that, cuz forza dosent have a maxima and forza is a awesome game. Enjoy!!!

This post is worthless to this forum. It should be in the off topic section.

There's an Altima 3.5SE in it too. Too bad Forza is a lousy game.

GT4 isnt that great either. Why try to make a video game as realistic as possible and give us a joystick and triggers.

Go out and get yourself a quality force feedback steering wheel and get back to me.
