Miramar RR

This game is awesome but I was missing an analog feeling of a vintage engine with 3 pairs of cylinders arranged horizontally.
What about you?

Miramar RR
by kimaq
The "Poor man's Porsche". Initial inspiration came from Škoda 742. This layout changes weight distribution to around R:54% F:46% across all engine options. What does that mean? Well for me personally more fun!

Mod contains 8 engine options (4 Miramar engines, 3 Piccolina engines with all the customizations, Flat 6 engine). Those engines send power through transaxle and halfshafts to the rear wheels that are mounted on a modified Piccolina swing arm rear suspension.
Frunk (previous engine bay) carries fuel tank, spare wheel but can hold brick or rocks as well.
Everything in front is held above the ground by softer springs (RR in their names).

Things you should know before diving into this mod:
- Having radiator with an air cooled engine disables engine's thermals
- Rear suspension can experience wheel hop
- "Turbo" and "Propped" trunks help with air cooled engine temperatures
- Be careful with suspension tuning as front inner wheel likes to lift off the ground at stiffer settings

  Somebody had this issue as well. I tried to replicate jt, but no luck there. Then I asked them to try and replicate it. The issue just disappeared.

This is now one of my favourite mods, why do you ask? It's because it is the most sturdy vehicle in my RR Banger Heats!
The problems? Well if the front bumper comes off the Fuel Tank can puncture and if the rear Bumper comes off the Rear Left Wheel and axle Rips off (But we'll ignore that and hope it gets fixed).
I would definitely recommend this Mod to anyone looking at it!
The only thing I can think to add that hasn't already been suggested is an estate version.

  I appreciate the kind words. Also thanks for notifying me about those quite significant problems and I mean a wagon would be really cool but not very reasonable in real life

I really wanted a normal car (not supercar etc) with engine in trunk!
I think you should add:
-Side open frunk (like in later rear engined skodas)
-1.3/1.5 SOHC engine from covet (like in very late Skodas 742 that would have a favorit engine instead of old one)
-Bricks or pavement block as option in trunk (very popular "modification" in Skodas from that time to fix that weight distribution)

Amazing mod, the only gripe I have is the lack of Flat-6 customization, but that might just be me, the race specs are awesome. Maybe a water-cooled 2.0 F4 swap in the future?

  I don't really want to update it because I'm afraid all my work will get lost after a remaster

this is actually pretty cool but i would say that the flat 6 engine is way too loud when compared to the other engines, it also could use a stock exhaust as a standard option
