    Yup, it is indeed a different offroading experience, but for me the suspension haven't collapsed even once, but I was using the smaller wheels, and the stock engine with the low gears, and oh god, the gearbox and the engine is so perfect, you don't have to much power, so you can go over rocks slower, yet there is enough power that you don't need to rev in neutral and than get into 1st gear to overcome obstacles!

    I've had the suspension go a few times. Usually when I have really hammered it though and it collapsing is understandable.

    Did enjoy mucking about with this mod last night, then got distracted with modding covets.

    Am i the only one that gets HORRIBLE fps with this for some reason? It's definetly not because of my specs (R9 290 oc'd, i5 3470 3.6Ghz) or anything, slow-mo mode lags aswell, we're talking 20fps here.

    I'm in love with it, but the Low Range should be lower at least the first gear down to maybe 20kph so I can Rockcrawl without revving all the time.

    Hey, great car. I could not wait until you release it. But I have to point out that you got the Toe angle wrong. In the car toe angle should be in, where as in your model front wheel toe angle is out, and this results in instability in a straight line. I know nothing about moding, but i know a thing or two about cars. :D Cheers and keep up the good work.

    First off, this is not a fwd vehicle, so there is no requirement for toe in. Second, if you do some research I think you'll find that MANY, MANY people have a little toe out in the front to aid in turn in.

    Also, in that picture of the under-side of my Datsun, there's always going to be some perspective when looking at it in game.

    Thank you for paying attention to the fine details. :) I use to work in a dealership, did many alignments, and also went to tech school for auto mechanics so I like to think I have a basic understanding of suspensions. :)

    thanks for the amazing truck, I love it!

    However I have found one bug though, when you are in inside cam mode, if you crash really hard (e.g. with the thrusters), and if the roof gets dented in, the camera gets detached and leaves the car.

    You sure that's a bug, or just you falling out of the vehicle in a crash...

    I would love to see the LQ4 in the 4WD as well as some more modifications for it. The 4WD feels unfinished compared to the vast customizability of its 2WD brethren.
