What started as a simple project turned out to be more technical than we’ve expected, with other projects getting in the way, so it took over a year to have a decent release version
.
Joseph, the owner, was working on the stock physics but it got a bit complicated for him, so @aphidgod took over to finish all three versions. TRD and GT are built according to real specs and available parts, except the widebody aero kit which its made up by myself.
Stock version is automatic, as most of these cars came out like that from the factory. Only a few were 5-spd, so my advise is to play it with auto shifter on.
Here are the tech specs for the two special versions:
TRD
TRD adjustable coilovers
Camber/caster plates
Rear ARB
4AGE engine swap
4.312:1 final drive
Limited slip differential
Track-compound brake pads
195mm tires on +30mm offset wheels
GT (Time Attack car)
AWD driveline/underbody swap from EP85 Starlet, custom differentials/driveshafts
Tuned 3SGTE (from MR2 Turbo)
Matching E153 gearbox
3.94:1 axle ratio from a Solara
Fully custom wide-track suspension with relocated body mounts
Custom steering rack
Custom coilovers, ARBs, topmounts
Full race brake kit
Minor weight reduction
Widebody + aero package
225mm tires on +19mm offset wheels
Keep in mind this project started over a year ago, so the 3D model might have some flaws here and there. Don’t expect the polishing level of his 512TR or Diablo, learned a lot along the way, so tried to keep this one up to date without delaying the release any longer.
Still all parts work (gullwing doors, shifter animation, gauges, lights, etc.) and while it’s not the most optimized model texture wise, He has tried to compress the textures all he could to keep file size down. Stock and TRD have LOD’s, but not the GT.
