Achieve extreme acceleration in Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec by tuning your LSD, but be mindful of rapid tire wear. Learn how to manage it.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    To achieve massive acceleration without spinning out, raise your LSD (Limited Slip Differential) acceleration rate.
  2. 2
    Be aware that increasing the LSD acceleration rate may cause a slight understeer.
  3. 3
    Experiment to find a compromise between acceleration and understeer that you are happy with.
  4. 4
    When choosing tires, better racing tires offer superior grip but wear out unrealistically fast.
  5. 5
    You can expect to get about 10 laps out of a medium set of slick tires.
  6. 6
    Avoid using the super grippy, short-lived tires unless the race has no tire wear.
  7. 7
    If you have Traction Control System (TCS) turned completely off, try setting it to 1. This can sometimes help increase tire life without significantly interfering with your driving style.
Tips
  • Try not to slide or brake too much during turns to preserve tire life.
  • Standing hard on the brakes wears tires quicker than modulating your braking.
  • Running on curbs, hitting armco barriers and walls, and driving on grass or dirt significantly affect tire life.
