Just imagine drifting for ever and ever until you crash!

I agree maybe have a setting to turn of tire wear completely allowed by server host

I’m rooting for this! This might be the most detailed mod yet! Keep up the great work

Quote from Scawen :

One thing I am still disturbed about is engine creators who do not notice the "CLIPPING" red message in the top corner, while in the engine editor. That message means "SOMETHING IS WRONG" but apparently a lot of people think that a bright red message in capitals means they are doing the right thing. Big Eye

Everyone else, please, if you get in a mod and you go in the engine editor and you see CLIPPING nearly all the time, please go and give that mod a one-star rating for engine sound. We'll need to get the message out there that engine sounds should not clip (well I'd say they can clip a tiny bit, occasionally).

Hahaha!!!

Yes! Some people think because it’s loud it sounds good. But in fact no they need to tune engine sound with default audio options. Minimal clipping in things like revving the engine in the pits where it echoes or echoes from driving by under pass/tunnel. Or at extreme speeds because wind noise is extreme.

I still believe the anti clipping option all it does it turn the volume down. If the engine noise is extremely clipping with anti clipping off. With anti clipping on it still clips but at lower volume.

Description says 2.5 liter and it’s a 3.6L????

I love the concept of this! I always said I think there should be cup version of the base model cars, stock body with stripped interior roll cage and minor exterior changes.

I think the engine could use some work there’s 1200 rpm’s that don’t do anything red line might as well be 8,000 not 8,600. I think the car would benefit with a 200HP and 150 FTLbs torque

Sound like I’m going to rework it a bit more! Thanks for the videos and links guys! New redline will be 8500 rpm’s and will retune the sound so it stays that deep tone at that high rpm’s

Cant send files in the Direct message so here. Still no proper sound will need to tweak that, it sound good below 4000 rpms anything above that and it sounds like a rotary or an F1 too loud.

drove the mod, i really like the suspension, and the over all drive train.

needs more steering angle maybe 36 degrees. default setup has too much brake bias. interior i know it needs work, but i cant see speedometer over the steering wheel

That might mess with the power curve and the sound.(higher RPM higher pitch) Those Dino V6 didn’t rev up that high

Issue in the pits with car modeling
curb weight is too high should be 1,430 kg (3,153 lb) not 3600 lb
suspension too soft

Quote from Mr. Apex :Hey I hope you do not consider this offtopic:

For users who do not yet have mastered the LFS Editor, is it possible to make a private copy of a mod for offline use and swap in another engine?

Is it as simple as renaming the engine file and place it in the corresponding car folder under Mods?

I mean this is how I test my engines. I make ModFind version of an LFS car save it hit test mod and in single player there is test tab in the mods section in the garage

Quote from alpozdemir6560 :I've been working on the update and it's finally done.

Can you tell us what you did please ?

Yeah don’t do no 315 that’s crazy for power to weight ratio. 400 Hp with 2800 pounds 275-285 max rear tires if it was real life I would do 265 but that’s not enough grip in LFS

Quote from scania :I tried it, very good!! I think the base can be louder/ thicker(don't know how to describe it Tongue)

Ok I’ll see cause any louder and it clips

Much better now with that tire size. Now the car can do more, grip race and drift much better!

I think the setups need a lot of work, the drift setup needed transmission gearing work, second gear was too short and 3rd gear would fall on its face. Parallel steering should be 0. Also the sway bars you want at least 20NM or more in the rear.

I’m still not happy with the engine it felt strange the way the power came on. The turbo sound was the best part of the engine, the engine it self sound crappy

It definitely was an improvement from the original over all. The model is great too! Love the interior exterior and colors watanabes are on point!

I loved this car, but It’s a drift car, it needs more side wall over all specially because it needed more grip and because LfS tire “road_normals” I would use at least a 35 or 40 in the rear ratio and then I would match the side wall size in the front so they are both thicker

What ever happened to this? Was excited for an update on this

Can we get more configurations of this mod? Like the K body kit and wing? Really good mod but soo boring. And no updates to transmission, sound or anything

Quote from Scawen :set up a replay of a car that nearly suffers from clipping (for example, it has been set as loud as possible but with only very slight clipping or just not quite clipping). Then try running beside another one or two of the same car, to the point where the combined sound is clipping badly..

You want this replay done with LFS original cars? Example a XRR FZR side by. Side or the FBM?
