    About/Lore: Hirochi wants a car that can compete well against the Civetta Scintilla, so there is the Sunstorm (naming got some mild inspiration from the Sunburst, mild inspiration from my very old Automation mod too with the same namesake particularly the V10). It is essentially a SBR4 that has its chassis heavily modified (and the rear interior removed) from a rear-engined car to a mid-engine car while retaining most of its suspension and anything outside the engine bay.

    NOW (1.0 REMASTER) is an individual mod with an individual vehicle slot (sunstorm), no other mods required.

    HOWEVER PLEASE DELETE THE OLD ZIP FILE "angry_bird_sunstorm" IN YOUR MOD FOLDER

    REQUIRED MODS FOR 3.0 (If you don't have them the mod will NOT work): KLJP, KLJP CORE MOD, Ibishu T-150X Wheel

    As @Selmarya reported in the thread, DO NOT USE IT WITH @Theo Wilkinson 's Hirochi SBR4 Facelift, it WILL break the game.

      It is kinda based on the SBR4, but remember the SBR4 is quite a bit narrower than the current 2.3.0 version. Think of it as the SBR4 taken some steroids instead.

      It is a known issue, currently I am trying to add more stuff (ie. new hybrid logic, wider front wheels, better subframe modelling and airducts plus other stuff) before releasing the update, hope that helps!

    I love this! I use it all the time! But one little complaint: I wish you kept the KLJP one in the revamp because I liked the design and the power of these 2 mods combined. Keep up the good work!

    Giving this a 3/5 star rating. This is basically a Hirochi SBR4 with some mods to make it a lore based Audi R8 with V8 and V10 options, but I love the way this way pulled off. With that being said, since 0.37, this mod has broken headlights, third brake light, as well as a few other things. Until this mod is fixed, I cannot give it the 5/5 it truly once deserved. I would like to see the mod creator active on this mod. Thanks for the read

      The fact that the SBR4 itself is given as a bespoke chassis yet never given a proper exotic car performance (ie. 6 cyl 500+ hp), is a travesty.

      Right now my main goal is to add a proper skin UV for this, along with a few things. I will make a small update for this.
