    Just found out about this, looks amazing so far, and I'm glad we're getting a lore friendly R32 soon ;)

    A small suggestion is to add a MFD (Race Dash) and/or gauges into the interior where the radio would be / similar to the R34 interior.

    (I know how tough it can be to add these things since I've made a few mods for myself, but if you want to challenge yourself a bit more after everything's done :D)

    That's what we're trying to find out
    --- Post updated ---
    All we're left with is a joke mod that goes really fast

    Good news Andrew, the R32 is still being made, it's just that progress is really slow

    a brief update, was planning to wait till it was more complete before posting but got a bit stuck, so I shall reveal now:p

    In addition to the high performance, AWD widebody Sunrise GS-R, other RWD models will feature a narrower 1695mm body, to comply with Japanese 5-number regulations of the time.
    (fun side note I was made aware recently, but up until 1989 in Japan having a 3 number plate due to exceeding width by 1700mm would basically mean the road tax was almost double that of a 5 number car, which is why almost all Japanese cars (sans for some bespoke luxury cars like the Century and President) were designed so that they could comply with 5 number size regulations, combined with a 2000cc engine option)

    RWD models will use different, narrower front and rear fenders, a mask style bonnet, separate sideskirt (or lack thereof) design (it is not compatible with GS-R)
    front bumpers will also be different (have yet to be designed/modeled), but you will also be able to custom fit a GS-R front bumper as seen above, it is a bit wider but can be easily bent to fit the narrower fenders:D
    the GS-R will also use bespoke, wider side indicators, to accomidate with the wider front fenders (similar t the skyline irl, they will not be compatible with each other)

    but yeah I am having a bit of trouble with getting the reflections how I want them on the rear quarters, so I took a bit of a break/worked on other stuffs and plan to come back with a fresh mind and remodel that section of the fender:)

    also started on the 4door, only the narrowbody for now but GS-R rear doors/denders will come soon, seeing as most of the modeling for the sedan is basically done now

    minor update (not really lol)
    i never did end up posting in this thread, some months ago i did a basic mock up jbeam for the purpose of testing suspension, mostly to test handling, as well as how remodeled meshes look ingame

    in recent months I have had issues with the model leading to a bit of artist block:p I figured this was a good time to instead start something i had been meaning to do, create a spreadsheet to document progress, in addition to helping me better set goals for this project, should serve as a more accurate way of monitoring progress for others:p I have edited the OP to include the link, but will add here as well:)

    It is a great idea to do the spreadsheet so you know what is done and what needs to tackle. I let you do your own progress at your own pace.

    Not sure if it’s been discussed before, but does Nishino have a logo? Will it be similar to the Nissan logo or do you have other ideas?

    bit of a late reply put probably not, mainly because there were no noteworthy R32s in the FnF series.
    only example I can think of is this one from the funeral scene

    got like maybe 3 seconds screen time? also just your typical street tune, so I think the generic config more than covers its purpose:p don't worry I will paint one of them black and do similar visual mods lol

    there are also other films where the R32 got more screen time;):p

    I know they both are R33s, but the r33 and r32 are very similar. And since this isn't a Nissan, but a Noshino, why not mix them up a little. (Just a suggestion, not demanding it by any means)

    true, but R32 and R33 isn't the same:p
    also, if ever i somehow do an 180 and manage to be productive enough to make 1993-1998 Nishino Sunrise, maybe i will make those configs.
    this is not foreshadowing

    Are you actually adding it to your mod!? I love that livery, i remade it myself on GT7 for my GT-R and having it in Beam would be fantastic!
