Once this is out, I'll try to make a LM bodykit for it.

# Harrison15 : BN Sports front bumper. Rest of the kit will be done soon. Also, I know that the front grille should be attached to the bumper, but I haven't finished that part yet.

K.D.F., is this any better? ;)

# K.D.F. :
Alright, thanks for that image. I'm going to try re-doing the bumper again, because I missed some things on it anyway (the lip is too short, etc).

Also, for anyone wondering why the grille on that is wrong, it's because I haven't finished and attached that part yet.

# Supremen96 : Will you be able to add URAS kit?
The front bumper, sure - I can probably get that from S-Tuner again. The rest of the kit is pretty similar to the BN Sports and Duce (Vertex) kits, so I don't see a point in making three of basically the same kit.

# stonedmonster : could you do a drift/beater rear tube bar kind of thing
Sure thing. I was planning on it. I'll probably make one for the front, too.

# MADAZ_09 : hey harrison, i was just thinking is it possible to build something like this with your mod?

Looks like the S2 front bumper with no foglights and a lip. I'll add a lip like that, and then it'll definitely be possible. ;)

# Dariuss : really nice, but could you remove/make that grill from the bumper detachable?(the one from the intercooler)
sorry for this, but it looks better without it, imo
Probably not, actually - that will make the bumper behave strangely when you crash into things. If you want to get rid of the grille, you can just change the grille texture to a completely transparent one.

# Facepalm : Once this is out, I'll try to make a LM bodykit for it.
If I don't have it done when the car is out, then sure, please do! I am planning on making it a separate chassis, just so you know.

So wait. You say that you've used S-Tuner parts on it? O_O They are pretty low poly as for FM model.

They're based on S-Tuner models, with an extra layer of mesh-smooth and then some additional tweaking. ;) I've been using mesh-smooth on the Juiced 2 and S-Tuner models I've imported.

Sounds like a good plan. A separate chassis is probably better.
Well, I'm not very good with modelling, and I can't get 3DS Max to work too, so all I need is to find a solution for cdilla error, and then I'll try my best.

I sure did. It doesn't help as much as having the admin send them though, since it's way easier to get his un-smoothed copies of everything and use two layers of meshsmooth, instead of trying to re-adjust the ones that are already smoothed once and smooth them for just the second time.

Thank you! Unfortunately, I think your feeling is quite strange indeed. :P It'll be released when it's done.

# MADAZ_09 : trying to to bombard you with questions harrison, but do you have a complete list of what will be in the finished mod?
I try not to make definite lists of this kind of thing, because I generally decide to add in parts once I realize they're doable, but here's the to-do list of things that definitely have to be in the mod before I release it:
· The rest of the Nismo 400R kit
· The rest of the BN Sports kit
· One or two more kits / parts from Juiced 2
· Stripped interior
· Stock brakes
· Roof wing, maybe

I'm thinking of doing it as the main chassis, but we'll have to see. I haven't started on it yet.

If I do a "drift chassis" with a stripped-out dashboard (with Auto Meter gauges or whatever), that will definitely be a separate chassis.

I'm going to make a drift bar for the front and rear, and I might make a tube frame chassis for the front - I don't know yet. If you have pics, I'd definitely try to use them.

Hey, if anyone wants, I've put together an Excel spreadsheet of every single VE Commodore paint color, and every single VF color so far. I might extend the sheet's range backward into the VT-VZ era, but we'll have to see. Send me a PM if you want it. (Most of the data is courtesy of JHP.)

The sheet also has approximate RGB values for the SLRR painter. No, it can't do metallic colors right, but it's pretty close in many cases.

# couger389 : Hey man I dont know if anybody has suggested this but would it be possible to make a drag front bumper for the R33, like with a opening for a turbo etc
More than once, and for previous cars as well. If I can figure it out, I'll make it; but as it is, there are too many variables in terms of engine placement and turbo piping for it to look decent.
# OMGahd : why not have something similar to jdw's 86?

* Physics behave weird, particularly in crashes, when you have everything separated too much. I might pull the carpet out, though, but that was the reason I originally wanted to make the stripped chassis separate.
* Gauges can't both be removable and work properly in SLRR. (Of course, for boost gauges etc., this doesn't matter.)

Thanks for the reply, I have turbos that I can move so it would probably work well for me, but obviously if it isn't going to for the bulk of the crowd then it isn't necessary

A question: Wide GTR version of Parts Shop Duce kit, BN Sports kit, or both? Y/N

Also, I made this rare (and kind of weird-looking tbh) Varis front bumper - this is the last front bumper I had left to convert from Juiced 2:

Why not both?

I agree that BN kits are everywhere, but I guess that's because they're good-looking and I actually like them. But it's not up to me to decide on that. I'm only sitting here and waiting, not working after all :D


I'm a noob :3

# KeeJay : IMO it looks good (however, I'm more rice guy). Are you going to make rest of kit?
Yes, I'm going to make the rest of all of the Juiced 2 kits. This means I still have to finish the rest of the Bomex and Varis kits, with side skirts and rear bumpers. (Plus, like, 10 different rear wings.)

# KeeJay : PS: Duce kit. BN Sports kits are everywhere.
# Hinata23 : Why not both? I agree that BN kits are everywhere, but I guess that's because they're good-looking and I actually like them. But it's not up to me to decide on that. I'm only sitting here and waiting, not working after all :D
Surprisingly, even though Duce is apparently a smaller shop, I've seen pictures of as many of their kits (or replicas/knockoffs mistakenly known as "Vertex"?) on R33 GTS's as BN Sports kits. But I know what you mean about Duce being rarer, in general.

# Supremen96 : Nah, don't make both wide kits. Keep it realistic.
R33 GTS bumpers can be used on GTR's if you widen them, which isn't apparently too hard but does take some work by a body-shop. It's apparently just as hard, maybe a little bit easier, to go the other way. Also, knock-off companies* like Knight Racer and Extreme Dimensions / VIS Racing / Seibon make GTR versions of GTS bumpers, and vice versa.

Also, this.

That said, I like things to be realistic and separated a little bit, so I won't do GTS versions of every GTR kit and vice versa. I will probably just do one or two of the very popular GTS kits in a wide version (although maybe not, if literally everyone ends up using it).

* Side note: don't buy knock-offs - the fit and finish will suck, and it's better to support the original companies anyway. Especially Extreme/VIS/Seibon; Knight Racer might not be as bad. :P

Just my little, curious question Harry: which cars are you going to do after R33 release? :P Would be cool to see your's R32 and/or R34. I know majority may treat my post as request, but did you consider it?

# Facepalm : So, are there any chances for a LM Chassis/Bodykit?
I'm still not sure yet. It's not first on my list of priorities, but I'm still considering doing it.

# Supremen96 : Just my little, curious question Harry: which cars are you going to do after R33 release? :P Would be cool to see your's R32 and/or R34. I know majority may treat my post as request, but did you consider it?
I have the Mustang 2013 basically done, so it will likely be released at the same time or before. I'm also going to update the Mustang 2000 at some point with new parts, too.

Other cars I have in 3DS Max that aren't even close to "done" at all:
* Pontiac GTO / Holden Monaro
* Skyline GT-R BNR34 Coupe (Forza) and GT-T ER34 Sedan (Street-Kings). Yes, it will be both in one mod if I do this, because everything matches up. ;D
(And no, I wouldn't be doing this otherwise, in part because it would then have fewer parts than the old R34 mods, and in part because I don't particularly like the Forza R34 model, since it's a hand-me-down from FM1!)
* Mitsubishi 3000GT / Dodge Stealth
* FM4 LOD0 remake of Mustang Foxbody
* Chevrolet Corvair Monza (wut? i know)
* Mustang SN95 1995 (Might or might not do this; mostly I just want 1997 tail lights, which Alexander Alexandrov's mod doesn't have. His mod is otherwise pretty good as far as I can tell.)

I'm not likely to do an R32, though, because so many people have WIP R32s already. Generally, I only start a mod if I can do a more complete and more fully-featured mod than anyone else has done - which is, as it happens, why I haven't ever done a Subaru GDB or any of the S-chassis cars (Silvia / SX).

That's an unexpected car to be popular. :P It'll go in-game eventually though!

# razer11 : By the way, are you open on suggestions on cars to put ingame?
As long as they don't get too out of hand, I'm open to suggestions.

Note that I'm pretty picky about what cars I do: generally, I won't do cars that have been done more than twice (or more) already; I usually don't do supercars; and it has to be something with a decent model available and something I can put at least a few tuning parts on.

# KeeJay : Well, there's no decent E30 for SLRR. #not_request_at_all
I'd think about it, except that I don't particularly like the Forza model. For starters, it doesn't have any body kits. :P

Also, it's been done a lot, and I don't think I could make a new E30 mod that would meet every need that all of the existing E30 mods already fulfill.

I know what you mean. However, it does have three body (bumper?) kits.

Next idea: Saturn Sky Redline or Vauxhall Insignia OPC or Caddy CTS-V Coupe?

Would be cool to see new versions of:

- Acura RSX/Honda Integra DC5;
- Ford SVT Focus;
- Mazda RX-8 pre-facelifted (2003-08);
- Toyota GT-86/Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ with ALL parts from Forza;
- Mazdaspeed Roadster.
