9 years ago the mod creator VIN666, released 1963 - Chrysler Turbine Car on Dec 27, 2013. But that was based on the Gavril Grand Marshal.
Your 1963 - Chrysler Turbine Car is based on Gavril Bluebuck So you should change "The first Gas Turbine Car ever made in BeamNG" to "The First Gas Turbine Gavril Bluebuck ever made in BeamNG"
I love using the Gavril Single turbine Jet in the Unusual engine pack for the Wentward/T-series ;-) It's fun smoking the tyres in the Bus and Semi that's been fitted with the Kerosene fed Turbine Jet Engine.. There's been quite a few Turbine Engine mods released over the years.. Plus creator Bernd's Hoverside *Hovercar* was an interesting mod that I think was also using a Turbine engine AFAIK?
I enjoy using your created Gas Turbine Bluebuck.. Welldone -

pretty bad, basically just a v8 that revs slow, also changes the normal engine part names. authors never gonna admit this tho

Epic mod, nothing else like it out there! Surprised there's so few videos about this mod online so I made one myself: https://youtube.com/shorts/BWuPZMSjVrk?feature=share

I've always been a huge fan of the concept of gas turbine cars, and this creator did a fantastic job of making such a thing! I look forward to seeing where the mod goes next.

Hello, it's me again. I'm still really enjoying this mod, though one issue I find is that it starts to tear itself apart at 4000(0? Perhaps it would be 4000 if measuring at the output shaft) RPM.

Yeah my mod needs fixing but i mean i don’t have anyone who’d like to model the 3D engine (well someone did tell me they’d do it but they disappeared in the darkness) and idk if this mod will actually come to it’s final stage 1.0

At the moment the engine has absurd inertia and still revs like an old V8

I will attach JATOs to this in order to have a JAJC (Jet Attached to a Jet-Powered Car)

maybe for sound, record you vacuum cleaner and put a lowpass filter or something XD

I like it. Honestly, I'd love to see the Burnside Special version of this, just because a jet-powered 1950's car has a certain appeal to it.
As it is, I finally have a good reason to drive the Bluebuck, and before, I really didn't. Now it has an interesting engine option. -

Boatloads of torque to go along with a boaty car! Will you make the Mopar 3-speed torque-flite transmission to go along with it? Will it ever rev up to the 60,000 rev limit? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_Turbine_Car#:~:text=The%20engine%20produced%20130%20bhp,its%20maximum%20of%2060%2C000%20rpm.)

So, I don’t plan on making a Torque-Flite transmission although it could be something to do if I get bored. I believe those ultra-matic transmissions in the Bubu are sufficient. What this engine won’t do however is rev up to 60k rpm for a single reason: the engine being coded from a piston engine basis it’s pretty hard to make the engine rev that high. I have tried and it wasn’t very conclusive. Also if i were to measure rpms I’d mesure it out of the torque reducer located right before the transmission .

nice idea, poor implementation, it's just a normal v8 with a super heavy flywheel.
If it gets better i will give 5 stars but not as it is-

If you read the description I just released it this way and phase 2 will incorporate what you’re asking for.
Next up, doesn’t it feel like a gas turbine despite my “dirty coding”? It does
Also, if you feel so disappointed by this mod you could always make your own or even help me perfection it

This might be my favorite mod on the entire site. The characteristics of the engine are weird, but it's perfect. Incredibly excited for phase 2 with the correct model.

I really didn’t expect my mod would appeal so much to everyone. I know this engine is very singular because of virtually everything tho it’s a very curious one.
I have some exciting news because I’m gonna make a small patch for phase 1 where I’ll just insert the correct starter sounds which shouldn’t be that hard. This will come out in the next few days I guess.
Phase 2 is gonna take a bit more time because I’ll have to learn how to blender and I wanna make them good quality so yeah.

Nice mod, i feel like the bluebuck should have as well some styling changes like the turbine car
-
Author's Response
Like I said this car was a test mule so it just got the turbine slapped under the hood and that’s it just as a test core. Then, if I ever have the motivation I’ll make a car that has a more radical styling
