On Hold 1995 Ibishu Kashira (Gen 2) 3.1.2

Yes

 

i know this says outdated, but can i still use this mod without any major problems?

 

I've had no issues yet. I think in this case all it means is "unsupported" (as of 0.21.4)

 

thank you

 

Yeah, same here. I have not had any problem with either instance of the Kashira thus far, and actually have used it quite regularly.

 

Best vehicle mod so far!

 

no

 

Yeah... I think the 210 may be the best, yet why do I use this one so much more?

 

Due to it originally being a pessima, the suspension is just... wonky asf. Not only was it not meant to be awkwardly stretched out, but the added weight make it incredibly weak.
Other than that, it's good quality. Not dev by any means, but above average for sure.

 

what is a 210?

 

possibly the best mod in the game

Not to get off topic (even though I obviously am) there was an expansion for that

Back on topic - honestly, I never noticed; I usually use the beater van when I drive myself since it's much more fun (for me) - in the time I've driven a stock configuration, I've never had any kind of issue with the suspension, but I probably never did anything too crazy in it.
Then again, that could be Gen 1, which I don't use nearly as often as Gen 2.

 

Apologies for the OT but I have to say... The 210 is fantastic. Still works and it was made in.. what, 2018? Other than an alignment issue which is fixed by mapping your mouse to steering, it's amazing. Feels very 1950's UK esque.
Woulda put this on the discussion for it but I don't want to bump

 

Now, I could have sworn that one of those mods added a drag config; but maybe that was the base.

And back on-topic (I do my best) - on the suspension issue
They don't look the same -
From L->R
Pessima
Gen 1
Gen 2

From Front

From rear



Pessima

Gen 1

Gen 2


It looks like Gen 2 and the Pessima share more suspension wise, despite the fact that Gen 1 came first and the Pessima is more based on that.

Which is odd; I've had no issue with the rear Gen 2 suspension ever. I don't think these were released in tandem, were they?

 

Thought those were with that mod. Whoops

Note: Rear -> Front on all pictures
But only the Gen 2 JDM had the system;
Pessima AWS

Gen 2 JDM AWS

Gen 2 JDM same (ish) trim w/out AWS

Gen 1 same (ish) trim w/out AWS

Gen 1(?) Pessima same trim (as AWS Pessima) w/out AWS


You may have a point; Gen 1 just looks like it's missing the little black mounting, which I find odd that Gen 2 has it, since the Gen 1(?) Pessima and Kashira overlap (but don't quite match) and the Gen 2 and the Gen 2(?) Pessima do, yet the Pessima (new) (I used LX V6 to match trim for the first picture) have nothing in common, neither does the stock suspension (not that they're that different)
New Pessima LX V6 Sport w/out AWS

New Pessima LX w/out AWS


And they look pretty much the same. Which I find interesting that both the modmaker/Ibishu went for the weird design of
Old Pessima - It's own thing
Old Van - Old Pessima w/out big black bar thing
New Van - Old Pessima
New Pessima - It's own thing.
Which is odd from the perspective of both vans having the same platform as a compact sedan, while the new sedan (which I'd expect to also share the platform of Old Pessima) doesn't.
If we took the first two, it'd make more sense to have the New Van/New Pessima and Old Van/Old Pessima.

I get the AWS thing, but that also raises the question - would a JDM New Pessima feature AWS? And if it did, which platform would it be built on? - since (as far as JDM market goes)
Old Pessima - AWS (presumably, the game's is a US market spec, I think)
Old Van - No AWS
New Van - AWS
New Pessima - No, not the proper platform

In that case, why does a van get AWS but a premium sedan not? Just an interesting question the whole thing brings up.

 

The only issue I’ve found is on the USA hillclimb one and its engine has no texture
