    I've done a bit more jbeam work. The nodes and beams are now organized by location and function on the jbeam. I was pretty sloppy when I first started editing it, and didn't do this. Whoops. (´꒳`∗)

    Because of this, I've been able to edit the strengths of things a bit, and have solved most of the "jitter" problem I had before. I've also added a few more cross support beams, as the jbeam is still a bit weak. It's not much, but deformations are a bit better.

    The major weak point right now is the rear pillars. The roof isn't great either, but it's at least somewhat acceptable. The pillars, however, tend to "explode" in crashes, especially in direct impacts.

    120 MPH rear-corner collision

    This is my jbeam as of now. If anyone has any tips or advice just judging by the picture, I'd really appreciate it! (*⁰▿⁰*)

    Collision triangles will be added to the rear window area once I'm more finished with the rest of the jbeam, I just don't want to mess anything up while I'm still working.

    In other news, I've been adding some little details and stuff to the mesh. The middle-row seats now have an optional center seat.

    This is a feature on a lot of minivans, it gives you an extra seat if you need it, but is easily removable for easier access to the rear seats.

    So, yeah. Just some minor things, mostly. There's not really that much to show while doing jbeam. Everything is pretty much "Oh, it crashes ever-so-slightly better than yesterday."

    But yeah, the van crashes ever-so-slightly better than yesterday. (*^▽^)

    Probably not, I don't really know what I'd do for a stock GTz trim level. It would have to be faster than the V6 on the ZX, which you can't really do with stock parts right now. I may be able to add some kind of "sport tune" to the V6 and give it some sportier body parts for a GTz level, but I'm not sure the difference would be significant enough to warrant a new GTz trim level.

    That being said, there will be no shortage of sporty variants. The I4 can be equipped with up to a stage-3 turbo, and the van is surprisingly nimble when tuned a bit. (⌒▽⌒*)

    Oh, wow, awesome! Thank you so much! (´◕ ◡ ◕`)

    I threw together a "sportier" grille for the GTz variant. ₍•͈ᴗ•͈₎

    It doesn't have to be super powerful, just needs a few custom body parts (discreet sideskirts, grille, etc), stiffer suspension, and maybe a small turbocharger ripped from the MK1 Pessima.

    How bout Ibishu S-pace?
    It'd be (kind of, not really) funny cuz it would play on Jaguar F-Pace names and stuff
    And it would have a Real-Life counterpart, that being the Renault Espace
    AND with out the dash it would say Space! It would be perfect for such a car on which if it was made in real life, the designers would put no time into making names and such (Pontiac Trans-Sport or the
    mentoned Renault Espace)

    Hey so, I do not by any means want to rush this, as I think this may be one of my favourite mods when it comes out, but I was just wondering if you had any kind of idea of a release date. If not, I'm perfectly ok with that as I do not want to rush a great mod. Best of luck.

    I don’t really have a definitive release date, but I’d like to be done by late March or early April. That being said, there is still a fair amount of stuff I need to do on the model, and a lot I need to do on the jbeam, but I’m hoping it won’t take overly long. The release date mainly depends on how much time I have to work on the mod, and how many problems I run into while making it. My main obstacle right now is all the nonsense with the rear pillars and interior, but it should get a lot easier after that. (^^)

    Well, I still need to jbeam the taillight area and rear seats, and set breakgroups and glowmaps, (as well as just generally tweaking some things), but it's so much nicer now! (❛▿❛*)
