I think an older version of the SBR4 would be cool so the Bolide can have a proper rival and because it would be cool. I'm not exactly sure how it would look, but I'm thinking a mix between a mid-90's Skyline and a first gen NSX (not exactly like them of course). Information: Years: 1993- 1995 & 2005 Performance class range: Maybe 5 for the most basic variant, 8 for highest performance model, and 10 for custom. Country: Japan Derby: Sports/Super Variants: Base (1993, RWD, M), S (1994, RWD & AWD, M), RS (1994, RWD & AWD, M), RX (1994, RWD, M), RXII (1995, RWD & AWD, M). After '95, Hirochi took a break on the SBR4, focusing more on their entry-level vehicles, but it came back in 2005 with slightly more upgraded specs but was canceled again to begin on the then-concept Sunburst. It came back in 2013 as the beloved supercar. I hope other people find this idea cool and it would be great if the devs looked at this. Feel free to suggest any ideas and add any editions to the car! Have fun crashing or driving, whatever floats your boat.
The "4" in SBR4 stands for the number of cylinders. If you named it the SBR3, then the car would have 3 cylinders.
Eh, I wouldn’t mind an older Japanese performance car, but the SBR4 doesn’t really fit in my eyes. Shooting Brake (Rear engine I believe?) and 4 cylinders. wheel drive The Skyline or NSX don’t fit the whole shooting brake deal. Not a bad idea, just doesn’t fit the name.
but a fix gen NSX is a V6 why would it be 3 cylinders? that makes no sense for a late 90's early 00's sports car.
He said he fixed his mistake and if you are talking about the SRB4's 4 cylinder engine I think the 4 cylinder is fine even if every JDM car in IRL had a 6 cylinder of some form with the exception of the RX-7 of course. --- Post updated --- But the BeamNG drive wiki said the 4 in SBR4 is for the 4WD.
I fixed it. Everyone makes mistakes. I wasn't really thinking about that when I made the post. There's a difference between calling someone out on a mistake and helping someone fix a mistake.
Because it was designed and marketed as an ordinary wagon with slightly sporty styling, more like a 3-Series wagon, than a 5-door sporty alternative to ordinary wagons, like the CLS. My idea for SBR4 generations (let's assume "4" stands for "4-cylinder", as there are RWD SBR4s): 1st (1967-1972): Mostly inspired by the 1st gen Mazda Cosmo, but also has a more sloped version of the Volvo P1800ES rear. Rear-engine RWD, all-wheel double-wishbone suspension and disc brakes, 1.6 80 HP or 1.9 102 HP flat-4 and a 4-spd/5-spd manual gearbox. 2nd generation (1972-1979): Mixes Lotus Elite and Datsun 260Z 2+2 styling, as well as a sharper version of the 2nd gen Mazda Cosmo interior. Mostly like the previous one, but now has a 1.7 95 HP/2.0 115 HP flat-4 and an optional limited slip differential. 3rd generation (1979-1987): Mainly inspired by the Mazda RX-7 FB, but also has a Porsche 928 shooting brake-style rear (although sharpened). Mostly like its predecessor, but now has a stock 5-speed, an optional 4-speed automatic (1982-), and a 111 HP 1.8/ 2.1 133 HP/ 2.1 turbo 170 HP flat-4. 4th generation (1987-1995): Again mostly inspired by the RX-7, but the FC this time, with a Volvo 480-style rear. Now has a stock LSD, rear pushrod suspension and optional 4WD, as well as a 1.8 130 HP/2.1 150 HP/2.1 turbo 210 HP/265 HP flat-4. 5th generation (1995-2004): Mostly inspired by the 1st gen NSX, but with some roofline inspiration from the BMW Z3 shooting brake. Now has multilink suspension up front, optional 6-spd manual and 5-spd automatic (automatic only from 1998), and a 2.0 150 HP/2.3 180 HP/2.3 turbo 250 HP/2.3 twin turbo 280 HP (Japan)/335 HP (export) flat-4. 6th generation (2004-2013): Mixes a lower version of the 350Z front end, a more sloped Volvo C30 rear (but without the hockey stick tallights) and a 1st gen Z4 interior. Quite like the previous generation, but now has a 2.0 165 HP/2.3 201 HP/2.3 275 HP/375 HP twin-turbo flat-4, a 6-spd manual or a 6-spd DCT.
If something similar to the first (or even second) generation SBR4's you suggested get put in game I would be the World's happiest guy
Yeah, it's all down to personal preference I absolutely love classic JDM and wagons/shooting brakes, so number 1 and 2 are literally my idea of perfection
