Ibishu Covet

Yeah, more like the '88 Pessima.
...

 

that could be a cool facelift

 

It already has a facelift tho…

 

its a really mild one, and jdm only

 

Oh that's actually quite a good idea. A proper facelifted covet and a pre-facelift Pessima would be amazing.

 

the KJLP pre-facelift pessima is pretty good.

 

Awesome! Tough it is sad to see that the old ibshu covet mods do not work anymore.

 

Do some configurations not have a right mirror?! for example: student driver, 1.5 DX

 

The reason that some configurations lack right side mirrors is because those are base models, they might also lack things like hub caps and an air conditioning unit.
They are sold like that because it makes the car cheaper.

 

Life didn't prepare me for this)

 

Welcome to America, land of the wealthy!

 

Yeah, I know you’re being sarcastic, but it’s the land of opportunity, although how many opportunities there are is debatable.

 

It needs more European stuff, for example rear bumpers with a license plate cutout to actually fit EU plates. This just doesn't look good. Also front and taillights, missing third brake light for the early models, only one blinker at the front (either bumper or next to the light) and more to make it fully EU spec.
Also it could use the trunk cover thingy with additional speakers in it for all the tuners. And a sunroof, they were pretty common back then. But we need more sunroofs in general.

 

Strangely i love the look of that!! It really makes me want a boxy 88 Pessima.

 

Here, you don't have many opportunities, unless you are Finnish and/or have family lineage in construction

 

that actually looks really good

 

I think the FFB for the FWD Covets is too strong, since the same steering jbeam is used for FWD and MR configs. I suggest creating a separate steering file for FWD, with the FFB scaling at around 80% the current value.

I know I can adjust the FFB per car, but I also think that the vanilla values should work more seamlessly. Right now the MR Covets have a nice strength to them, while the FWD ones are ridiculously strong.

 

Good lord, I don't know if you can count that as a bump since it's an official thread but.. Almost a full year.

 

I noticed some oddities. The 1.5L Covet all have a 4.25:1 final drive with the 5-speed manual and a 3.89:1 final drive with the 4-speed automatic, except for the USDM 1.5 LXi, which has a 3.89: with both transmissions. And a longer gearing does not seem justified.
Also, the JDM Type-LS has the wrong ECU: the "stock" instead of the "ZXi". The redline/revv limiter cuts just below the peak power, which gives a weird power curve and it doesn't reach its max power.

 

this was in the game for a bit, but im only now reporting on this

shouldn't this say "mediocre" instead?



literally unplayable devs what are we paying you for
