4 STARS CAR SETUP ****

Engine swap : EJ20-Impreza-Rally (Subaru Impreza Rally Car '99)

-Wide body
-Size "17 - Rims Width wide - Offset wide
-Front St - Side St - Wing Custom

Note: some PP values have changed for a few swap cars since recent updates.
The only way to correct it is by:

  • Using normal brakes

  • Setting the front downforce to 24

Brakes aren’t so critical on Tokyo—just make sure to adjust to the new braking points.

This car is one of the fastest in the Tokyo Rain event, consistently lapping 1:59 with a best of 1:58 low. One pit stop for fuel only.

Be mindful of the understeer—there’s no real way to improve it due to a PP bug, similar to the Impreza '99. To counter this, downshift at higher RPMs to gain extra grip and hit the apex more effectively.

The gearbox is very long, designed around the mid-range power band. To stay competitive, you need to keep the RPMs in this range for maximum performance.

4 stars only because of a slight understeer issue that I couldn’t fully eliminate with the available tuning options. Otherwise, it’s an excellent car with strong performance!

⚙️ Gearbox Setup:

  • The gearing is extremely long due to the power curve.

  • Peak power is at 5,500 RPM, so shift between 6,500 – 6,700 RPM for best performance.

  • DO NOT rev to the limiter—you’ll lose a lot of speed.

  • Automatic transmission won’t work well; using it will result in significantly lower performance.

A true beast, but it demands proper shifting to unleash its full potential!

Enjoy your drive. ><(((((((°>°°°°°

Another amazing Tokyo weapon. Now I have two very similar, but nevertheless very exciting to drive. Thanks for a great job.👌

Many thanks! Amazing tune. Just curious why not include the increased body rigidity? Only adds 1pp

Yes, it’s up to you. Personally, I prefer adding a bit of power or downforce instead. The car is already very good and stable in its current setup. I did consider body rigidity, thinking it might tighten up the handling a bit, but it doesn’t really feel necessary.

Great tune for this track, as you say it’s a shame about the weighty front end and understand, hard to keep on the driving line but the top speed makes up for it

Dave C

Is this better than the WRX coupe type r 99 tune? They look very similar

Jonathan Davis

Always love the Subies especially the blue and your tune is awesome dude keep it up.

I think it needs an update,the gear ratios don't fit with this setup

This setup currently sits at 605.5pp
