It seems like these restrictions control too much. Maybe have like pu/et restrictions to fight things like DOHC and EFI

DOHC and EFI are prohibited…

The no modding parts is the real issue.

By modded parts i mean no workshop items

I was personally thinking that “yeah, you COULD do DOHC, but you’ll have a a shitty interior” so you could go to an extreme but sacrifice somewhere else. Where have I heard this before… oh yeah e v e r y o t h e r c o m p e t i t i o n o n t h i s f o r u m

Since everyone wants it dohc is allowed now

This challenge looks like its run by someone who wants a specific car but really does not know anything about the car in the first place.

Well, for older cars, it’s more a matter of wanting realistic cars, and not getting DOHC from every single person entering, because more power and better fuel economy…

Hard pass.

Uses 4x4 SR5 Tercel as primary image
FWD and AWD only
No manual transmission

I haven’t ran one of these since before the kei light campaign sorry for any hicups

Then you should probally take a look at the other challenges first.
For example the CSR’s

Yeah i Felt the rules were to restrictive. They’re less restrictive now.

Is there a reason for this?

If you set up a ET/PU this will probally be coverd

That is weird.

The only good rule here is “Regular Unleaded only”

Yet again these can be covered with a ET/PU limit or a Service cost Limit.

You should try to build 2 or 3 test mules and then base the limits of them

I think im happy with the rules now

-1,1000 Material cost at 0% margin in the market window (NOT DETAILED STATS)

11.000 or 1.000? I’ve made the most basic of the basic cars, and still about 1,700 material costs.

is it negative or positive? Hopefully it isn’t negative because I have a feeling that wouldn’t work
