Outdated S-Tune Bristol (Barstow Restomod) 1.7

A modern rebirth of the classic legend

  1. Bentonchiez
    f you tried my Sunburst pack (https://www.beamng.com/resources/s-tune-sunburst-tuner-pack.29746/) then you've experienced my custom ESC system, that controls turbo pressure and active exhaust valves on a per mode basis. You also know I'm a massive fan of excessive power. So what if we applied that to a muscle car? Well, you'd get exactly this, the S-Tune Bristol!

    Named after the nearest NASCAR track to where I live, this mod is based off a mod that @Senko-Loaf will be releasing soon. He has created the bodywork that myself and a good friend @_Jacob15 have modified to make this awesome look. Jacob15 also made custom badges, that we are now using as well! As aforementioned, my custom ESC is in the mod. However, unlike the Sunburst which relies on a turbocharger to work properly, the Bristol ESC will work with turbos and superchargers. As far as engines, we have a 400CUI, 500CUI and 388 CUI V8, as well as a 523CUI V10 and a 305CUI V6 (it's a modern muscle car, it needs a V6!!!). We also have a 10L diesel! We also have AWD, and a few custom transmissions! There is also custom tail light logic and running lights based on one of my favorite real life cars, the challenger!

    @Angry_Bird also made custom disc brakes!

    Great mod, but I DO think that the 1 star guy is valid in some ways. Sure, 1 star is harsh, but it IS important that other community members are informed of issues.

    Why do public reviews exist? We could just PM the mod owner any of our issues, or use the forum/discussion thingy that a good chunk of modders use. Public reviews exist to prevent a terrible mod from becoming popular, or to prevent a amazing mod from staying unpopular.

    Again, 1 star is a bit harsh, but I NEEDED a review like his to know if this mod was worth it or not. I don't mean to be rude.. but let's be honest: the vocal BeamNG community is mostly children. ALSO, opinions vary. Someone else might think that crash physics are the number one most important thing in the world, but I could care less (I know how to drive ;D).

    Considering all of this, I think it's fair to say that public reviews are needed to understand if a mod is right for me or not. If this mod had the worst crash physics in the world, I wouldn't care at all. But.. if this mod had buggy handling and a choppy throttle response, I wouldn't download it.

    It's why I don't download Filman86's mods or whatever his name is. That Group 5 Moonhawk is SEXY, but it's buggy and that ruins the ENTIRE appeal of a track car for me.

    Again, 1 star was probably an overreaction, but even if he is some egomaniac, I appreciate the time and effort it took for him to find issues and inform the community. No need to belittle him because he tried to help out. Maybe YOU'RE the problem? Work on your insecurity, man.

      I want to thank you for writing this review. I had never really thought about it from this type of perspective before. It makes sense. I was not in a good place when that review came in. I was in the hospital's house with my grandmother, who would pass away the very next day, and I had lost my grandfather just over a month prior. I couldn't take it. He also posted it in my thread on the official Discord server, and when I asked him for help with some of the harder issues, he didn't reply and instead posted this here. It was the tipping point for me. At any rate, I've said what I said. I do plan on addressing most of the issues at some point but I'm just low on motivation. Thanks once again for the time it took you to write this review, and have a fantastic day.

    My man, if you gonna be releasing a new update almost everyday, at least give the files the same name so my comp will overwrite the old file instead of forcing me to scroll thru almost 300 files to find and delete the old file.

      I'm very sorry. I have never had that issue, I didn't know that was a problem.

    True definition of modern restomod that the old barstow deserved.

    There's a bug that the spoiler don't show up even after i selected it from the part selector. I had cleared cache, disabled all the other mod and pretty sure to say that something had broke the spoiler of the Bristol. Any chance for the mod to get a fix for the spoiler sometimes?

    Despite the bug, i still had a great time using this mod and it paired very well with javi's CEEP mod. Thus, it deserved a 5 stars. I just wish that the spoiler can get its fix sometimes

    Edit: The spoiler bug had been fixed. You just gotta download the 200bx legacy for the 200bx spoiler family to avoid texture issue

      Good point about the 200BX part. I'll get that fixed. Thanks for the heads up!

    I think this mod has a considerable amount of care and attention, brought to it, that i wish was prominent in some other mods ive downloaded as of late. Sure, there's a hiccup here and there, but thats the case for just about any mod, especially one thats been out for this long. I like it. not even a big fan of the barstow, so something like this makes that car a lot more worthwhile to me. the headlights turned out amazing

    This mod honestly deserves a higher rating, i've had a lot of fun driving it around. There are some small issues but its not something that is annoying enough that you notice it every time you use the car. Unless you are specifically looking for issues with the mod you won't notice them
