LeGran V6 Diesel

Hello everyone. This is a mod that was born as a private mod for a friend, of which I decided to redo from scratch with an actual engine model, badges and some configs. *You need @RyanCookie 's coupe LeGran mod for 2 of the included configs.

Contents:
- 4.2L diesel V6 engine (specs below)
- Diesel-specific 4 and 5 speed manuals
- Indirect and direct injection, basic and intercooled turbochargers
- 10 configs*
- Hood stack with rolling coal support
- Custom taxi skin by @Top Tier Studios (Thank you!)
- Brown diesel manual wagon
Pics:

Other info:
- Based on Oldsmobile 4.3 V6 Diesel
- Early: 76hp, 217nm (160lb/ft)
- Late: 92hp, 240nm (177lb/ft)
- OEM Turbo: 139hp, 365nm (269lb/ft)
- Theoretical maximum RPM with Heavy block is 5500, and maximum torque is 798nm

Pretty fun little abomination. few suggestions: maybe use an alt sound like the i6 diesel for a more rattly sound(straightpiped it just sounds liike a gas v6 lmao)? also maybe a rare sport config or something? oldsmobile apparently tested a tuned port injection or something v6 diesel at one point

  I used the regular V6 exhaust because it's the most suitable one considering its a v6 that has all cylinders coming out of one exhaust, therefore it'd make a higher pitched sound. I wouldn't use the existing I6d exhaust sound because imo it sounds really weird and whistly for an engine like this

Great mod, but I've noticed a couple of potential mistakes - the S Diesel configurations have the airbag steering wheel and the driver information system (center console) whereas the regular pre-facelift S configurations don't, and the facelifted diesel cars (like the SE and Towing Package) are listed as being built from 1984 to 1988 (pre-facelift) instead of '89 to '93.

  The build years are a mistake, but the other differences are intentional just to set them apart from the base configs for a bit more variety

  I'm in contact with my friend, he says the mod hasn't been approved yet. You should be able to access it when it's out on the repo

Really funny mod! but only problem is that turbo must be in other place (clips with brake servo and pipe and filter have no texture/all black

  Already fixed the black texture area, but thanks for letting me know :)
  As for the clipping, I don't think it's really an issue as a lot of official vehicles also do it

Great mod, gutless yet manages to still be fun in a way. only issue is the fact it somehow has a carbureted variant(???)which doesnt actually work on diesels due to the design(maybe rename to early/indirect injection?)

  Yeah I figured that out and posted an update with fixed names

Diesel engines are always fun! consider adding diesel gauges and this mod will be excellent

  The base gauges don't have a tach, so that's what every model would have. The sport config has sport gauges swapped in
