So if I buy the post, do I get future updates or not? (I read the post, but I still don't understand this)
Hirochi Sunburst: Finally! A worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary! --- Post updated --- The car is based on the Lancer Evolution X, it's very good! --- Post updated --- You will make more configurations, skins and bodykits? I have some ideas of what you can put on the car
Some points about the lore: *Why would Hirochi partner with Ibishu to make a Sunburst competitor? Makes absolutely no Sense. Using the Sunburst as a base on the mod creation side is totally valid, but that does't mean that an Ibishu Sunburst with I4 engines makes any sense. I'd suggest changing a little the design on the cabin (door shapes and other frame bits) in a way that would differentiate the cars enough for them to be based on different platforms, although on the same segment. *About the powertrain, the I4 engines would be Transverselly mounted, right? If yes, Hirochi's AWD system would, again, make no sense on a technical standpoint. The Lancer used a modified Haldex-like system, since it is something that fits on a car with a transverse Transaxle. Unless you are aiming on the Alfa Romeo system with a center differential, although that would be too niche and the Sunburst already has a system like that, a tuned Clutchex system (based on the Vivace) would make A LOT more sense and would fit better the Lancer theme than a Subaru System heavily modified to fit on an transverse engine/transaxle. Other than that, the mod looks really good, and the Sunburst Jbeam is SO good now that it can't be bad to drive. The mod itself is very promissing, some fixes on the lore would make it close to perfect.
I second this ^^ if you slightly change the cabin (and make a normal door handle in the rear to differenciate it a lot) you could use the lore that its not a partnership, since something like toyota being partners with nissan or ford being partners with gm makes little sense also i dont know what the years are but having a more "conventinal" headlight/tailight design for the lower trims/or like a prefacelift could go a long way since to me at least those lights look like a 2020s car and not a 2010s one
The design of the front is amazing, but I don't like the rear taillights as much, just saying. Maybe some stuff should be changed or maybe you should make it so that it looks less like a sunburst on the interior. I wish I could test this car lol, but can't because I'm broke, so I think it's basically like a sunburst body kit. It doesnt make sense that hirochi helped ibishu make a competitor to their own car. Maybe its lore could be changed to be a more modern Hirochi sunburst. But that's up to the creator
