Original first post: I figured that, since I have a WIP topic on GOM, I may as well have one here. This is my latest project: a Holden VE Commodore, made from the Forza 3 meshes of the Pontiac G8, HSV W427, and Holden V8 Supercar. Thanks to Robban for converting the Forza meshes for me. (Pics are the same as on GOM.) A few notes: Since taking these photos, I have also fitted a hood to the W427 front end. Speaking of the W427 parts, interestingly, none of the three Forza meshes line up, because o

we have a good SR20 already... generic i4 pack comes handy

You can consider rescripting Toretto's SR20 by making it more realistic and adding for it more aftermarket parts.

Good SR20? Where?

David_2709

well, not SO good but the one "without" sound
I got one with working sound

V6/V8, 13B, now RB26... I'm wondering what's next?

What's next is I finish all of the car mods I've got piled up, not more engines 😃

the R33 is in how many percent?

# veyron155 :

Over 9000%. (Ask a silly question, get a silly answer.)

In all seriousness, it's probably about 60% done if I'm going to be doing a lot of the stuff I wanted to, but if I had to release it as-is in a few days then it's 85% done.

So - don't expect it soon, but maybe early 2016?

Christmas present this year? :lol:

Hey Harry. If you're going to update a Mustang S197, I have some suggestions:

V6 version
Some stock wheels: http://www.originalwheels.com/ford-wheels/mustang2005rims.php (If you don't want to model them, you can convert them from Driver San Francisco and TDU)
Cervini's body kits: http://www.cervinis.com/05-09mustang-body-kit-without-wheels.html http://www.cervinis.com/05-09mustang-12pc-b9-kit.html http://www.cervinis.com/05-09mustang-b2-kit.html
That tail lights: http://www.cervinis.com/05-09mustang-cervini-tail-light-conversion-kit.html
Tinted stock tail lights: http://www.cervinis.com/05-09mustang-tinted-tail-lights.html
Stock brakes
Fender flares like that: https://www.octanemotorsports.com/2005-2009-ford-mustang-duraflex-gt500-widebody-fender-flares-4-pieces-p-142829.html

All nice stuff; but I'm going to update the SN95 (and remake the Foxbody, and make the SN95 1995) before I update the S197. I'll keep all of this in mind, though!

The wheels might happen soon-ish - I am making a pack of all of the Mustang wheels and brakes, so I'll see if I can include those.

RB26 V-Cam, still work in progress.

EDIT: Looked at some reference pics; this looks really incorrect. Going to start over on that.

Unseen

RB25DET-NEO in Automatic transmission configuration, just in case if you're doing a RB25.

Some details inside head cover.

And RB26DET/DETT:

RB26DETT-Z2 for R34:

Tell me if you don't see the picture, I'll transfer them to my VStanced album.

Added 12 minutes later:

And more for RB20.

RedCarDriver

Thanks, that helps a lot!

I'm going to try to make this igniter thing correctly, by the way (at the back of the spark covers):

I've found a nice pic of nice GT500, so I though I'll put it here, since many of you were posting pics of cars here too 😛

But let's put jokes aside - it's really nice front bumper, doesn't it?

RedCarDriver

Is that a GT500, or just a GT with a wide body kit? o_0 Grille looks like a GT500, but the hood is a GT.

Either way, I agree; I'm going to make a wide body kit of some sort for the S197 2013, and that's a nice design for the bumper.

RedCarDriver

Anyone have some good pics of a disassembled RB20E / RB30S / RB30E single cam cylinder head? Also, an RB24S / RB30S carburetor intake? (I'd like to do both a stock single carb for the SOHC engine only, and a Weber / Mikuni triple carb setup for both SOHC and DOHC.)

That front lip? It's not stock, as far I see.

RedCarDriver

I've seen pics of that around; I like it, and I'm going to have to try and make it.
