XRN (n2 inspired XRG)
Before the XRG facelift, there was a base model XR. Here is a lightly tuned XR on sporty 205/60R14's from the old days:
It didnt have the integrated rear spoiler, had a shorter wheelbase and front end, and a simpler suspension.
Then the LFSiA noticed that tuning companies were tracking the humble XR and decided to make a new series of 1.8L, 825kg racing based on inexpensive road cars. N2 didn't allow big spoilers or under trays and diffusers in the beginning. A maximum tire width of 500mm per side, 1.8L engine, and 825kg minimum weight (without driver) basically summed it up.
Tuning companies maximized everything they could in order to win, but the simple rules kept the racing close.
((Work in progress))
I want it to not be too fast or too slow. the old 1.8 has a narrow power band and a 4 speed dog box so you have to drive it hard. Also, don't hit the kerbs!

I think there are a few tweaks to cog or roll center needed, there is very little body roll even with soft springs. I think it makes it a little bit under steer prone on dirt, but overall it is fun! I think that an older mitsu "sirius" would have a bit more explosive top end due to old turbo tech. keep working, its a fun one.
I use 33 because I like 3’s. I also like 777 because I like the idea of chance. But 33 is my real number. 777 is my drift team number, 777 drift, all Q45 cars.
If anyone can edit knw files please let me know!!
Use trailing arm. Then if you go to the model and add an axle you can mark it as a trailing arm sub object . You have to offset it to the side .001 or else it won’t register for a car.
**edit**
How do I change the diffuse color of brakes for example?
Would you be willing to test my new layout? It’s 2400 objects, 7-11 minute lap depending on car.
I think the way the camber is displayed on LFS may be slightly misleading on the trailing arm setup. I may be wrong. But I think it’s essentially an inverse body roll figure
Awesome looking! It would be fun to do a race with these on a dirt road track.
Well it doesn’t have any individual wheel camber change at all. If one wheel is -1 camber, the other is always +1. If one wheel hits a bump and goes negative camber, the other wheel will be affected with the inverse (positive) camber.
Lots of cars have solid rear axles. Often called “beam axle”. VW Golf etc. they handle good if the unsprung mass isn’t too high.
Legends cars are another example, solid front and rear!

Did you ever get this fixed? You will probably have to use a static front suspension.
Lots of neat cars in here.
Here’s my car, earlier this year. Took a bad beating and needs some repairs this winter!

Rear trailing arm is essentially a solid axle. I’m not sure if the Lower Arm point effects anti squat or not. But for a less dynamic wheelbase change I have tried to set that point approximately under the drivers seat. A shorter arm seems to be more responsive but I can’t tell for sure if that’s actually true or my mind filling it in.
Send it to me, I’ll add it to the set! I love YF
Thank you! I updated a few things on it, let me know if you like it!
I know this is older but I’ll try tonight!
Man, I’ve been on LFS for so long and this just fixed my life!
I can’t wait to try this out! What’s the power to weight ratio? I’m loving the off-road cars in LFS. They are super fun
