    Hey guys! I am currently in the process of completely overhauling my 1992-2001 Impreza mod. I was never truly happy with the old version of it, (I genuinely hate it) so that's why I'm doing this. My goal is to deliver something that truly represents my passion for this car and this mod, and contains my best work, instead of half-assed ‘get it together for the update’ stuff.

    Old Mod:
    https://www.beamng.com/threads/read-first-page-1992-2001-subaru-impreza-update-2-3.101674/

    This release will contain FULL in-depth special editions, (As many as I can make), all original engines with correct torque curves, USDM, EUDM, AUDM, CADM, and of course JDM versions, a significantly more accurate jbeam with correct suspension geometry, tons of customization / option OEM parts, and proper optimization.

    Feel free to give me ideas and suggestions!
    Help is appreciated!

    If you have any abilities to help with these things, please DM me!

    - Custom engine sounds

    @Taku-chan - bug testing
    NFS Unbound, FM8, GT7, EA WRC - Various 3D models and textures
    Me, BeamNG - jbeam​


    FAQs:
    Will this be rebadged as a Sunburst for the repo? - No, @liamkw09 is working on one already.
    Will I make other generations? - No, this is only the first generation.
    Will the casa blanca be added? - If I ever hate myself enough, yeah :)

    When is release? - Currently there is no concrete deadline. I have a lot more to do on this mod, and a lot of it is stuff I don't have the ability to do.

    Some progress pics: (Keep in mind, there are some mesh issues on the 4 door variants currently)





    Progress!!

    @Hachi866 you should make a rally version with a skin that shouts out a bunch of important figures in the community
    like devs, users with a buncha messages/well known users, well known players, big modders etc.

    The most important thing in the simulator is the physics of the car's behavior, weight distribution, suspension, transmission and engine characteristics. Does this car have its own suspension and tuning or from the default model?

    Very cool, I like your approach, the body really looks good, without the "cellulite" when the mesh is not very good.

    My plan is to get perfect weight distribution front to back, then perfect overall weight too. Ill be working with my friends to get all the engine / suspension / transmission specs as close as possible to the irl car

    Awesome progress! If the previous one was good, I can't imagine what this one will be like!

    Coupe and Wagon body styles are already available in the last version of the mod, so I think these body styles also will be included in the new version

    That sounds like good news! Given that you intend to include all editions, wheels, interior specs etc, can I expect accurate European market versions and parts (e.g. gauges)?

    By the way, in the new reworked version of the Subaru Impreza, will there be improvements such as adding a high-quality metal texture to the inner side of the trunk lid, as well as enhancing the surface inside the hood? I think this would greatly improve the overall quality of the mod.
