Fyre Lance (waiting for a back shot)
CoolRim's (awaiting all textures)
J166a99 (awaiting front shot) (and side shot of truck)

Hey Super Sport! I took some pictures of my car recently, that would be awesome if you could put my car in the game. Here they are, let me know if you need any other specific views of the car, I have quite a few more pictures.






Also some stats I know of my car:
Length: 195.1"
Stock HP: 140
Stock Torque: 180
Gear Ratio: 3.23

Will a larger hp rating make my car go faster in the game? If so, feel free to bump it up a lot!

Thank you!

Ah man 91firebirdG4, I thought I was the only one with those rims


On the 66 nova whould you be able to add chrome smothie rims and white letter tires? That's how I want to make it look someday. I'd also have to lie about the engine if I wanted it to be funner to drive. Currently it has a worn out 235 with a 3 on the tree manual.

I have a pictures of my old paint job that are very well lighted. Will it work or do you need it to be the same color? For the game, please keep my car as the blue in the first pictures I posted. Thanks again.





I have some good side shots that I'll post in a few minutes...

Yeah, coolrimsatleast, I haven't seen too many people with these wheels. The only other car I've seen with these rims was a red 91 firebird, looked almost exactly like mine. Do you have Eagles or American Racing Wheels? Mine are the Eagles.

Hey, Could you put a motorcycle in the game??

SS,

I love what you're doing, man - MM is one of my favorites and your offering to put our cars in it is a dream come true! When I go home tomorrow (from school here), I'll try and get you some good pics of it. I was wondering, though - what are your suggestions for getting good pictures without glare or shading and whatnot? BTW, check my sig for what to expect with my car - it has that later 3rdgen model spoiler - is that a problem?

well, basically, if you have a garage, just take the pics in there, or if you want get pics at dusk just before teh sun goes down, and make sure you have the sun on the side you would Like to that the pic of, or else it would just be a shadow...

Fyre...just read backwards and caught your comment on my car..thanks bro. Only reason I haven't removed them is cause I like them..at the very least, they set the car apart from every other blue Camaro RS in the city (there's at least like 4 more that look almost identical to mine minus the louvers).. Hey, I don't normally like Firebirds..but yours looks awesome. [That's excluding first, second, and fourth gens, of course...]

That'd be awesome!

I have that game, and the second one as well! I download many cars, but most are just horrible! All one color, no dash, etc. etc. I just sold my last Camaro (1984 Z-28) last weekend, and I used a whole 36 print roll of film on it! I have EVERY angle ever! I could do it thru email if you want, to save the D/L time for the 56k'ers (I'm one of them!)

I don't have a head-on front shot , but the 84' red Z-28 is pretty common on the net, so if you can't use these, I'll find another.

Yeah, pulled 'em off a Monte Carlo LS, threw some white letters on, and presto! I have always seen Camaro rims on Montes, but never vice-versa. The only downside is, they were 14", but I compenated with some 245 tires!

14 inch huh....cant really tell. Did you have to recalibrate your speedo going from 15 to 14, or did you just buy taller tires? Bet you bake those 14's easier too huh? Although running 245 will get you more traction.. I'd like to get 16's for street but 13's for strip to bring the simulated gear ratio down...

lol Nixon1 I just now read your reply.... we're like taking a month to respond to each other.

Thanks for the compliment. I do love the car, do you have any more pics of it? You can PM me if you don't want to clutter up this board.
