    So my new little small weekend project. RPS13.


    (imported from here)

    Plans
    Making the stock car
    Body part alternatives including widebody panels, rocket bunny panels, origin lab bodykits, sileighty front end, s13.5 front end
    Engines such as SR20DET and RB25DET

    Progress
    Outer shell: 60%
    Frame: 90%
    Exterior details and trim: 10%
    Engines: 0%
    Suspension: 30%
    Interior: 10%
    Jbeam: 10%

    Disclaimer
    This project is based of an RPS13. However, since I do not own one these cars and since I'm not a professional car modeler, I can only make it as accurate as the reference pictures I can find allows me to make it. This will not be a fully authentic car.

    I have absolutely no idea how to go about getting this car into BeamNG but that's something to figure out later along the road!

    no ka24de?
    :(

    Nice to see a 240sx being made. They're cool cars so I hope you don't give up like a lot of people do.

    Yes please dont give up! this car is a must have for me! Make sure you make all of the body parts seperate. Doors/hood/bumpers/etc.'

    I want this car so bad its not even funny! Also very good job on the model! For not using blueprints it looks pretty accurate.

    I am using blueprints, so it should be pretty accurate :p And yes, the plan is to make all the parts separate

    Looking good! I still think you should also finish your IS and S15 but this will do :p Nice to see you have big plans on body kits and the rb25det as well. I'm looking forward to see this finished, would be a nice addition to the game.

    Yea, but step one is to make the basic car. This car should be easier to make than an IS and S15

    Just a quick coloring test :) Will look better with some edge splitting let alone more detail.

    It looks really good. I don't think you can finish it yet though since according to wikipedia it has McPherson struts at the front...

    Yea, I was thinking about that, actually wondering if it was possible. But I can just have an invisible upper wishbone (or something like that)

    Carefully beginning with the door frames :)

    It's got a similar resolution as the Grand Marshall. Although I will have to add some loops in on the doors later so they can deform properly :)

    If I could recommend one thing, add more detail to the door jam meshes. It'll look a lot nicer in game. :)

    Yea, I'm sort of keeping all detail basic at the moment. But I will definitely make things more detailed once I got the basic geometry of everything out.

    Started on the floors as well as the engine bay

    More engine bay done.

    Yes, I hope so too :) If I can't drift properly it, it's not good enough.

    Some tail lights put in place. You can also see a picture without backfaces in the top right.
