Update Speculation thread

I think the 4.1 Inline-6 is already good enough as a base engine for the Gavrils. Besides, how much more powerful can a V6 be with the same parts (Late Intake and Late ECU) and at the same displacement before entering the fields of the 4.5 V8?

 

not so much for performance, but more just as a successor to the likely already old 4.1 I6, for things like the facelift roamer and van.

 

And the facelift D-Series too but I believe it's not needed.

 

I believe that, if they ever release a Gavril V6 engine, it will have a displacement around 4.1 liter and will develop around 175-180 hp. Here in Brazil, Chevy used to offer a 4.3 V6 in the top trims of the Blazer and the S10. It had around 180-190 hp, if I remember correctly.

 

We all know the new car is a aussie Ford/Holden mix with a 6MT and 7AT transmission choice, packing a straight 4l I6 turbo and a v8 option AND also comes with a ute option. I mean come on joe, its obvious joe

 

Where do you have that from?

 

Im ironic as we get different takes on that car daily. European this, american that and the i realized i hadnt yet heard one about it being from Australia, which id enjoy as much as any. Imagine a bunch those battling it out at a the track, in all their roaring glory.

 

as a serious take, i'd doubt it.
Australian Fullsizes are realistically pretty bland in proportioning (they're basically just a scaled up mondeo which happens to be RWD because that's what most buyers want,
where the exaggerated arches on this seem to indicate that it's either upmarket, such as a Maserati ghibli, or that it's been designed to emphasise that it has been consciously kept RWD, when most in its market are FWD, for some perceived sportiness/premium value, like a dodge charger, genesis G80, lexus GS, etc.

 

why 200bx?

 

Hopper and 200BX are out of the question because we're talking about a large V6, possibly larger than 4 liters. The Hopper is out because it would be chronologically unrealistic to have a V6 while its most obvious material of inspiration had an Inline-6 at that time period.
The 200BX is also out because there's no point in a small sports car to mount a large, low-revving V6 engine like this (only a V8, haha )!
But, mainly, both these cars are out simply because they're Ibishus. Ibishu isn't famous for making large, low-revving V6s!
I mean, Ibishu could make such an engine but it would make much more sense to mount it in a large car (say a Midsize SUV/Pick-Up) than in a small one (say a 200BX kinda car).

 

Speaking of the 200bx, what do you people have on your wishlist for its eventual remaster? I kind of want a targa top version, a JZ or RB inspired I6, a headlight controller (like some aftermarket miatas have, that allows winks and sleepy eyes) and a BRAP BRAP ROTARY!

 

I think it's got enough engines, more aftermarket parts for them or the rest would be cool. Also an headlight controller would be very cool.

 

I think an Inline-6 engine would be amazing!
As for a rotary, no. A 2-seater sports car would be better for this than a cheap basic 4-seater car like the 200BX.

"Enough engines" while the only option is the 2.0 DOHC Inline-4. Yeah, right!
I mean, it could have more engine choices!

 

Fair enough, i mean they said they were gonna V8 swap it at one point, and a bigger version of this 4-cylinder could be nice, like a 2.2-2.5.

 

Ok, fair enough. Yeah, I know about the V8 swap but we have no idea if it's gonna be for real.
Anyway, if they are gonna put a 2.5, better be an Inline-6, in my opinion! We already have many Inline-4s across BeamNG cars, there's no need for one more (with that said, a 2.0 liter Inline-4 would make sense as a base engine for the I-Series, since we already have the "2000" trunk badge in the Parts Selector)!
And the 2.2 doesn't make sense since there's the 2.0. If anything, a certain distance between the engine displacements must be kept.

 

Ok here are my guesses
- new 1.8 for the Base and Type-L
- current 2.0 for the Type-LS and Track
- new 2.6 straight six for a new GTz and Demon
- Gavril V8 for the Drag and Drift configs

 

Great suggestions, simple and logical!
Apart from the GTz and Demon versions, the 2.6 Inline-6 could also equip the Track and Drift versions. The latter two versions could be duplicated, with only the engines (2.6 Twin-Turbocharged Inline-6 and 6.9 V8, preferably), livery colours and the accompanying suspension settings setting them apart!

 

I want the update so bad aaaaaaaaaa
