    It's the only project I work on in my spare time atm so I put quite a bit of time into it, I'm also working on it as fast as possible as I'm aiming to release it towards the beginning of 2023 (although I can't guarantee that will happen)

    update:

    -minor polyflow and shading tweaks
    -re modelled glass and glass trim to match new proportions of shell

    S15updatejune24_4.png
    S15updatejune24_7.png
    S15updatejune24_6.png
    -remodelled part of the unibody to match proportions of shell, this is WIP only the bottom part is done (will probably have to re-texture most of the unibody since I'm doing a lot of re modelling)
    -suspension positioning tweaks to match more accurate underbody model
    -repositioned/adjusted some other parts to match new proportions

    S15updatejune24_5.png
    S15updatejune24_2.png


    -Did some reasearch and found a bunch of useful underbody reference images (which I couldn't find before).
    -Also found out about an extremely rare and unknown version of the S15 called the "P-ride spec Z". It's so rare that I could literally only find 3 different images of it on google. Apparently it was built by a nissan dealership in kanagawa as a homage to the original Fairlady Z.
    I'll probably include it in the mod as it's technically a "factory config" and it has an, interesting... looking body kit.

    Man you're a legend. Keep this focus, keep this up. You got this mate!

    Also, the additon of rare bodykits looks amazing. Never seen anything like this before.

    Extremely impressive. Looks fantastic, liking the new proportions. Also wow that P-ride thing. I love strange old Japanese factory options, especially ones I have not heard of. Curious how many were built.

    Turns out the P-ride has some different taillights, look pretty interesting tbh

    Do you have any pictures of them? I couldn't find any pictures of the p-ride from the back

    On this site there are pictures of the taillights and they seem normal (although these pictures show a lightly modified P-ride so it's possible they swapped the taillights to originals)

    upload_2022-6-25_14-31-4.jpeg Could be aftermarket taillights as the exhaust would say, but I'll never know for sure

    Yeah, I'm like 95% sure those are aftermarket, will probably include that sort of taillight as aftermarket tho.

    Model is looking great so far! The edges of the main bodylines look a bit sharp, but that could just be the lighting?

    I just haven’t applied bevels to the sharp edges of the body yet as i prefer doing that last, they’ll be softer in the next update.

    thanks, and remember none of it would exist if it wasn’t for the ibishu camilla which is essentially what kickstarted the project

    Nothing to say... Wonderful modelling work!
    Absolutely fantastic!

    I have, tho, a request: is it possible to add turbo gauges like these ones?

    I’m gonna be modelling the spec-R turbo gauge soonish and i’d just need to copy paste it 3 times to get the look of the first photo, so that’s reasonably likely. the second photo is also pretty likely as I already have an interior slot setup that was created to work with those.

    as always though, none of the aftermarket parts are guaranteed since I don’t want to end up with a huge pile of requests that i need to fill.

    Yeah i understand, too much time for aftermarket parts to be created is not a good thing.
    Anyway keep up with this extraordinary work!

    It looks really good, I think you should do a public beta test (unless the car isn't in the game yet, totally understandable)

    I don't think the creator will make a beta test, it will most likely be released when it's mostly ready. Also it is in the game right now.
