for some reason the front reminds of of a 300zx
@koolkei About converting cu. in. to Liters, simply divide the cu by 61
Examples:
305ci / 61 = 5.0L
427ci / 61 = 7.0L
351ci / 61 = 5.754L (thus why Ford rounded up to 5.8)
350ci / 61 = 5.738L
455ci / 61 = 7.459L
400ci / 61 = 6.557L
289ci / 61 = 4.738L
And use it the reverse way to convert back to cu (just remember most of the time the stated displacement IE: Fordās modular 4.6 is a rounded number)
4.6L * 61 = 280.6ci
4.3L * 61 = 262.3ci
3.8L * 61 = 231.8ci
@koolkei thanks now i cant sleep early because i literally spending hours figuring what kind of magic you use in that sedan you bastard
We were having the same discussion on the Discord
And because GM and Chrysler both had 350 CI engines that are both now known as a 5.7L. So, in the name of marketing, Fordās 351 was rounded to 5.8L so that it was still bigger than the others.
Okay, time to set the scene. Itās the year 2000, the dawn of the new century. Somehow the Democratic Socialist Republic of Anikatia has survived into this new age. But not with losing its ideological convictions following the Chinese model. But in doing so the regime fell into the trap of capitalism and was deeply affected by the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis. By 2000 the socialist government was in its death throes as it faced the financial collapse of its local currency the Anikuro. The ensuing chaos led to the fall of the socialist government and return of democratic elections in 2001. But weāre getting ahead of us selves, for now in the year 2000, the DSRA appeared to be surviving as it had done since 1951.

@UnderlovedGhost we did???
also. $11330??? O_O
iād like to see the stats on that
ahem, price +20%
otherwise, awesome build.
Where is it +20? Last I checked it was 10ā¦
Also lol koolkeiās stats Iām so done with this round. Object lesson: newer Tech is more expensive than older Tech in newer cars. Soon Iāll be getting you all to teach me how to Play this Game!
Huzzah Iām no longer the cheapest car!
I havenāt quite figured out where Iām comfortable with as far as quantity vs. quality. Thatās why Iām leaving it to your judgement. The best car may be too expensive, but the cheapest car may be total crap, thatās where a good balance is key.
yet again, am blind.
my car i sent is now about $700 more expensive than it should be damnit
can someone make a sub 10k with 10 percent markup
Typical government contractor, gouging the tax payer money with your inflated profit margin.
Also @lordvader1 sub $10,000 is possible, but it wonāt be pretty, I could probably get mine there with a galvanized chassis and a 2ish liter 4 cylinder. But it would be a metermaid car more than a patrol car.
-15 on body and chassis.
1 liter 3 cylinder and there you go
My entry was 12400 or so, cheap enough to sell 20 cars, and it had no negative quality sliders, full assists, automatic slushbox, Progressive springs, advanced safety, and a few other non bare bones options and a scattering of +1 & 2 sliders. Shaving 3 grand off wouldnāt be that hard.
$13750 - 301hp - 6.5s - 158.6mph
Luckily for you, Iām not submitting this one
Iām going for something thatās more unique, and that happens to fit perfectly into my company lore
Welp I just realised that my wildcard supercar entry wonāt work due to the 4 dooors rule. I thought it was a 4 seat restriction not a door restriction.
My minivan is still on contentionā¦
