Honda NSX GT3 Evo Car Setups
Being the only Japanese car on the GT3 grid, the Honda NSX should get more love than it does in the ACC community. However, it’s a car which is generally looked at as one of the worst of the GT3 bunch.
The dev team behind Assetto Corsa Competizione try to match every in-game cars performance to that of the real GT World Challenge series. And by doing so, cars like the Honda which underperform in real life, tend to under perform in game too.
And in the end, try the Honda NSX, and if you enjoy driving with it, then stick with it. Ultimately the bulk of lap time is driver led, not car led, so you should still be able to perform well, especially with one of our custom setups.
The NSX GT3 Evo emphasizes efficiency and reliability, characteristics that prove invaluable during endurance racing. The hybrid-inspired design principles create a GT3 car that maximizes every input you provide.
Fuel economy stands among the NSX’s most significant advantages. You’ll complete more laps per tank than most competitors, opening strategic possibilities that can win races. Fewer pit stops mean more time on track, and during close battles, that extra lap before refueling might be the difference between victory and second place.
The balanced chassis provides predictable handling across all corner types. Whether you’re navigating tight hairpins or sweeping through fast bends, the NSX responds consistently. This reliability eliminates the need to adapt your driving style drastically between different corner speeds, letting you focus on perfecting your racing line rather than fighting the car.
Brake cooling efficiency ensures consistent stopping power throughout each stint. Many GT3 cars suffer from brake fade during aggressive driving, but the NSX maintains its performance. This consistency gives you confidence to attack lap after lap, knowing your brakes will respond identically each time you press the pedal.
The aerodynamic package works harmoniously with the mechanical setup. Downforce production remains stable across different speeds, eliminating the nervous behavior some cars exhibit during speed transitions. This stability proves particularly valuable when following other cars closely, as the NSX maintains its composure even in disturbed air.
Out of the box, running the default setups, the Honda NSX tends to be a little oversteer happy. Although this can be corrected with a good setup. To get the most out of the NSX, try one of our setups above, as they are tuned to maximise the performance.
