Guys, what did I do wrong with the pictures?
You must send your photos to media host (for example: imageshack.us/ ), then when you have direct link to your just write: http://www.directlinktoyourphoto.com
Next we have the “Haneda”, a very aggressive FR/F4WD sports sedan.

The base trim is the VZ and the 4WD version of the base trim is the V4Z with this engine:

The top trim is the LZ and the 4WD version of it is the L4Z with this engine:

Both engines produce the same amount of horsepower (278 because of Japanese regulations), however the VZ and V4Z are lighter than their L counterparts and are designed to be the sportier model. The LZ and L4Z are designed to be more luxurious than the V trims.
Nextly, we have the Akina, a small FF hatch with a base trim, a sport trim, a hot NA and an even hotter (320HP) turbo version. The engines are updated versions of the engines found in the Fujimi, except the turbo engine is unique to the Akina and only available in Europe. The model codes are shared by the Fujimi, and the hot European version is the “Akina TZ”

And here’s that exclusive super turbo engine

Also, to save doing multiple posts, here we have the Yokohane, a hot FR with one trim and three engines. In Japan and Asia you get the I6T from the Haneda, in North America you get the V8 from the Haneda, and in Europe you get the I4T from the Akina.

It may just be my screen but I think you need to look into zooming out when taking engine photos…I just see an empty room
It might be your screen, but I find that if I wait a little bit the images resize themselves and then they fit well. Also note that these screenshots are being taken at the highest resolution Automation supports.
Thanks to the 80’s, IPA is now offering the “Daiba”

Available in two trim levels, the base simply called the “Daiba” and the turbo version called the “Daiba Turbo”

I’m sure you can guess which engine goes in which trim level.
After a small hiatus, I have been designing a few more cars for my company.
Firstly is the Yokohama, a fast FR sports car.

Available in three trim levels, the base model being the LZ with this engine 3.2L I6 278HP. The mid trim, the LZL, uses the same engine.
http://imageshack.us/a/img96/3360/v5ga.jpg
The final trim level is the LZ-PP. The engine is similar to the above engine but at 2.8L it is smaller, still producing 278HP but revving to 8,000 RPM. This is by far the sportier of the two engines offered.

Newly added to the IPA model line is the Shutoku, a family oriented 4 door for the masses.

Available in four trim levels, the BZ (An engine, a transmission, four wheels, and five seats, all you need in a car), the BZ-A (Adds onto the BZ air conditioning, a radio, cupholders, and lining to the trunk.), the GZ (Adds to the BZ-A premium wheels and tires, premium seat cloth, folding rear seats, and a leather steering wheel), and the GZ-P (Adds to the GZ a performance intake and exhaust system, with revised fuel and ignition mapping).
Here’s the base engine

And here’s the GZ-P engine

In 2010, the brand “IVIP” (Ichito VIP) was created to cater to a wealthier audience, designed to compete with companies such as Mercedes Benz and Lexus. The decision was made after witnessing the success of the Haneda, more specifically the higher end, less sporty L4Z. IVIP will not share platforms or engines with IPA, instead focusing on a smoother, less aggressive line. IVIP will not use trim levels, as there should be no need to tone down luxury and exuberance.
The first release in the IVIP line is the One. It is a luxury sedan with ample space inside, designed to seat four large Sumo wrestlers in comfort. All four seats feature heating, cooling, memory and massage functions. Rear seat occupants also receive a large screen from which they can manage their portfolios, hold a video or telephone conference, or schedule a flight to an exotic destination in their private jet.

It comes with this 2.3L I6 making 278HP.
http://imageshack.us/a/img849/3257/cwlt.jpg
Introduced alongside the One in the IVIP lineup is the Zero, a luxury sports car. Featuring a 2.1L V8 with a split personality producing 278HP and revving to an astonishing 9,000RPM. Under 3,100RPM, however, the engine quiets down and provides ample torque for cruising down the highway and letting the kilometers spin away on the odometer like the slot machines in the Las Vegas hotel that you own. Hands free connectivity is standard and doesn’t just control the radio and navigation, but also the climate control, the seat positioning, and the windows. This machine isn’t all business, with downforce styled into the bodywork and a multi-mode adaptive multi-link suspension system this vehicle is just as happy on the track as it is on the streets.

The engine has the weirdest power curve ever, mostly because the turbos spool a good 800 RPM before the VVL kicks in.

EDIT I changed the picture because I revised the engine with a water to air intercooler. It now has better throttle response and fuel economy.
Right, after a very long time of not having an internet presence at all whatsoever, I figured I would get back into making cars in Automation.
Unfortunately, due to the expensive failure of our previous computer system, all information on previous IPA models has been lost. Also, my pet dragon ate all of the backups, and the employees, so I’m starting from scratch.
To start my recovery from this disaster, I give you the Condor, a special retro-style one-off made specifically for a customer who wishes not to be named at this point. Everything about this car is bespoke and hand-built, using only the finest materials to swath the interior in unparalleled comfort, while still giving the driver enough power to get going pretty quickly.
This is the engine, a 4.0L inline 6.
Let me know what you guys think.

Despite Japan being one of the worlds leading car manufacturers, I dont think there are many members here basing their companies there. Looking forward to seeing more designs.
Nice cars and engines mate, as for the alt + tab thing, try running the game in a window. Generally less crashes.
Thanks man, you’re a lifesaver. All systems are now functional.
Right then, I have been hard at work with another vehicle. This time I have dabbled in the world of hot FF hatchbacks, with this:
This is the Super Fun Box Mantis XRX, the track day special variation of the regular Fun Box Mantis (Which I will post another time). This car will seat five and go fast, as well as offering an upscale sporty interior lined with alcantra and that mystery stuff that is used for race car interiors. Each of the two roof spoilers is adjustable and ca also double as a handy roof rack.
The engine is a 2.2L turbocharged unit outputting 276HP and 251ftlb torque, at 6800 and 3400RPM, respectively.

After some business considerations, IPA has reorganized its various divisions. IVIP is dead, and two new branches have been created. One branch, IAC (Ichito Aircraft Company), has been spun off to produce small commercial aircraft. Another branch, IPES (Ichito Performance Engine Supply), has been created to supply automotive engines to smaller companies which do not have the resources to develop their own.
In honor of the formation of the IAC branch of IPA, IPA has released a new vehicle. This new vehicle, the Kitakaze (Northwind), draws inspiration from the low drag forms of an aircraft (queue Saab-ish commercial) as well as the smooth lines of an aerofoil. It is designed to be the everyday car for the person who does not need to transport more than one other, or the weekend car of a middle-class family with a sedan or MPV. The main goal of the Kitakaze was to maximize driver involvement while minimizing wallet involvement. The interior is nicely trimmed in Alcantra and that mystery stuff used on old touring cars to give a sporty feel, with a stitching that will match your exterior color of choice. This sporty feel is complimented by the low ride height and a choice of two precise steering racks. Power steering is standard, however the buyer may choose to select an unassisted manual steering at no extra cost. A six-speed manual transmission with rear wheel drive is the only drivetrain available. For the daily driver, the Kitakaze boats an impressive 7.6l/100km (31MPG) of fuel consumption when driven reasonably.
The engine powering the Kitakaze is a lightweight 1.6L 4 cylinder, designed more to give instantaneous response than to provide absolute power.
The specs for the Kitakaze (Manual Steering Option) are as follows:
Tameness: 53.5
Sportiness: 61.1

Prestige: 25
