1989 Susbaru Susty (based off the 1989-1995 Subaru Justy)
![]()
The Susty is a small 3- or 5-door hatchback from the late 80s and early 90s, with its standout feature being optional all wheel drive.
General mod features:
- Realistic engine, chassis and suspension data gathered from brochures, workshop manuals and experience owning a Justy
- 3D interior (non-functional, but it's there)
- Interchangable parts, including 3 different sets of wheels
- Surprisingly fun driving experience for what it is
So far, I've made 3 different versions of the car based off Justy's that were sold in the European market:
Susty S10 S
![]()
Features:
-1.0L 3-cylinder engine with 6 valves, 53 hp @ 6000RPM
- Carburated
- Front wheel drive
- 3 door
- Short final drive (4.84)
- Basic sway bar, lots of body roll
- Lightest version (860kg)
Susty S12 GL

Features:
-1.2L 3-cylinder engine with 9 valves, 68 hp @ 6000RPM
- Carburated
- Front wheel drive
- 5 door
- Long final drive (4.40)
- Stiffer front sway bar + rear sway bar
- Better front brakes
- Heaviest FWD version (895kg)
Susty S12 SI 4WD
![]()
Features:
-1.2L 3-cylinder engine with 9 valves, 76 hp @ 6000RPM
- Fuel injected
- Four wheel drive
- 3 door
- Long final drive (4.40)
- "Sportiest" version --> all handling 'upgrades'
- Slightly lighter than 5 door (890kg)
I've done my best to make this mod as extensive as possible for a first version, but there are still some Bugs and issues:
- Interior is non-functional and not very accurate to real life
- Rear suspension is double wishbone, but should be McPherson (not an option in Automation)
- Grille textures have chrome grates instead of plastic
- Rear lights don't light up more when braking with lights turned on
- 4WD sticker is too metallic, need to change texture used
- Mirrors and wipers stick through to interior
- DRL's won't bind correctly, are currently seen as indicators
I'm open to hear about issues you've found and suggestions to make the mod even better!
