Released Mitsubishi Mirage/Colt recreation, or the Hirochi Mistral 1.1.4

This mod is really really cool, but I wonder why the front wheel well is higher and bigger than the rear? Also the floor clearance seems pretty high on all the street cars?

 

this mod feels like it could be apart of kljp

 

Well, I worked on it with Kueso, so that's probably why it has that KLJP feel to it.

 

It’s like that on the irl versions of the Colt/Mirage, partly for stylistic reasons and partly for interior space I would assume. Also the ground clearance looks fine to me considering it’s a basic car.

 

Wow, what a gem!

First of all, in terms of handling it's pretty much perfect. More convincing than any other fwd hatchback, both official or modded. I honestly feel it sets a very high bar for the remastered covet in this aspect.
It has just the right amount of wheel travel, lean and lift off oversteer. I saw sth about it being too snappy. I disagree, it's spot on in that regard.

The one niggle I would find with it dynamically is the braking. The brake force seems slightly overdone. It locks up very near the top of the brake pedal travel even on a grippy piece of road. On slippier slippier surface it's honestly hardly servicable. Also I believe the brake balance should be moved slightly towards the front. On the dry asphalt the rear wheels should probably never lock up for the safety reasons.

Graphically it's pretty amazing too. It may lack a handle on the rear hatch, keyholes on the door handles. Perhaps the lighting near the roof lighting is a bit funky, seats too reclined but that's just nitpicking More importantly the rear left suspension clips with exhaust system. That's about it.

I would probably suggest reducing track a bit in all variants, both front and rear, but more at the front. Moving the wheels about 1-1,5 cm deeper inside the arches should give it a more realistic stance. As it is now, when fitted with wider sporty wheels, the car has a slightly toyish appearance. They stick out from the arches just a bit, especially near the front bumper.

Lastly the deformation - and no surprises here - it's very good. But I believe this little thing is a bit too tough. It should pretty much be a death trap. 90s japanese economy cars are known to have been made with the thinnest of steel. I've once seen a guy bend a window frame with his bare hands easily on 4th gen mitsubishi colt. Yes, it was that bad...

 

Cool mod but will there possibly be a RHD/AUDM version in future updates?

 

my new default car, the Mistral 1.6 V6 GXL

 

Kajzer updated Hirochi Mistral with a new update entry:

Hotfix 1.0.1

Read the rest of this update entry...

 

Another small niggle came to my mind. In 1.5 with 5speed variant the car hits the limiter in top gear. I believe it is rather unlikely for that to happen in an economy car such as this.

 

A 2 door coupe would be cool, then we could recreate 2Sexy

 

Did the update really go through? I re-installed it and I can't find the roof bars for instance

 

It did, everything works fine for me

 

the real car has a a 2.0l Diesel/TurboDiesel

 

It should be available, but knowing how fast the in-game repository is, you may have to wait a little bit. If you still don't get the updated version, try downloading it manually - I've had the same issue, and that worked out for me.

 

RallySport but in the past, really cool mod, the model looks a bit iffy but the interior has some really cool details, car's fun to drive around both in gravel and in tarmac, in general quite a good mod.

 

Oh I didn't know that. Well I guess I can just say the engine is different because lore

 

@PowerstrokeHD I see you posted on repo diesel engine, but there is a problem, it has petrol sound and it smokes way too much. ( I hope I mentioned you right, idk how it is on this forum)

 

Yeah. I have to tweak it a bit still but I just wanted to get it up there.

 

Quality mod, can't get enough of it, good job!

 

Could you maybe make a AWD?
