so i hate jacking peoples threads. so i made my own.
barron your welcome to post your progress in here if you want.
i got it textures: its almost ready for in-game beta testing, just need to decide on wheels... any reccomendations?

so far got the SE front lip on. need to make the side and rear skirts.
also have to weld the 2 halves together. then make the SE spoiler, exhaust, tow hooks, little details.

got more colors?

again, you need to mail me the car files when your done, so we can host it on the server here I want to use it so bad.

lol will do. its always fun driving your personal car in a video game. especially one as in depth as GTA4.
got some progress, went with the Hayashi 505 wheels. deep and wide. might throw on some 240z flares. granted the release for GTA will be basically stock with random options, so u can get closer to your own personal car.

time for bed. more tomorrow.

Try to flair the SE lip up farther on the front, right now its got the TRUE to life saggy stock lip lol.

The SE Lip is definitely at a 45 degree angle or even possibly less. (i'd say between 45 degrees and 30 degrees, in relation to the ground between the underside and the ground.)

That looks good! If it's alright I would definitely like to play with a render for some still images with this one

got most of it done. need to add rear wiper and the side skirts.
might go as far as to do the interior unsure of that right now.
but here it is ide say 85% complete.

oh yeah, just noticed i forgot the side mirrors. oops.

mild background teaser.

thats right...triple post lol.
got the mirrors/rear wing/pissers/and uhhh..other stuff done.

more to come! gonna do the interior and engine.

Nice stuff man. Really great with the detail.

Lookin damn good. Makes me wish I had gta4. Still, would also make a pretty sweet background image for whatever.

Makes me wanna pick a program and toy with it myself.

Keep up the good work!

HURRY!!!!
lol

i want to play with it before my next set of classes start up

srsly though, take your time, I'd like it even more if you perfected it more and more until it was as perfect as possible.

got the engine juuuust about done. needs mounts trans, downpipe, and various bottles and wires.

heh, kadet.

flip the turboupsidedown

i need opinions!! i have a chance to get a set of 16x7.5 volk te37's in white from a freind, i modeled them on what looks like my car. but i dunno if i like it or not, anyone got a s12 hatch with te37's on it i can check out before i buy?

i just...dunno..

would they look exactly the same, i mean offset, flushness, color etc. if so id shay rock that shit

really tho, they would look good, if you're going for a more modern-sport look

no shit, slick.

Those wheels are tight man, i'd go for em if the offset is the same.

Now, if they are chrome, instead of that alloy color, paint them using that chrome paint that always turns out more alloy silver after a few days

yeah the offset is about what you see in the model. i tried to get it exact. size might be a LITLE big.. they are 16's.
and yeah there white. i just dont know if modern is what i want or not..i kinda like the trashed oldschool look. like that rat rod 240z thats floating around the internet. my cars sanded down so that bare metal is showing in a few places and its got a few dents and scrapes. i really kinda like that look tho, so i think some loooow offset deep 15's are the way i wanna go. i think the volks go against that alot.
might just pick em up to run for a few drift events or something..idk.

add teh black trim mouldings!!!!! this is nice though man good work.

some one make a notchback!!!!!

yeah i was gonna strip the mouldings on my car...IDK yet tho. a notch is in the works ;-)

boooored. ive always loved deloreans. but cant afford one...hhmmmmmm

epic.

the front end with fixed headlamps looks a LOT like the blista compact from GTA IV (which as i'm sure you know is based off a crx, but that's besides the point)



i like it

cmon man, i want an S12 ingame lol. its like the only game i play anymore.

Thats davids car haha.

Is there any way I can borrow this model? I'll give it back

:Praize: ill try to setup a zip file with all the textures and crap in it and put it online. think u can add in all the dummies and texture files to get it ingame? i just dont have the computer space or graphix card to do it right now.

been bored lately, modded one to look like what i want my finished product in real life to be. can decide on a color tho..

You still havent given me the ingame model so i can rock it in MY gta iv

i know my bad.
im trying to get it setup, my computer is so low on everything its hard to even work in zmodeller anymore.
im trying to get a faster computer so i can get everyhting setup.
ill let u know.

KA24ET you mean...the throttle bodies not angled down

I would really like to get a hold of the model when you're finished with it. I've been meaning to model mine for years & never got around to it.

The difference between the two isn't the throttle body, it's the number of cams.


Looks like a KA24E intake on a KA24DE engine. Still cool as hell, though...

+1 for notch!!! lol

any chance the files been uploaded to the club for d-load if that was a plan... ?

and what format are they.. (Not that it matters.. I can convert pretty much any file to any other format... just curious...

I'd love to get my hands on that to start planning a custom body kit for my nissy... hehe..

its hard to picture it in my head!!!
