1989 Porsche 930 Turbo LE

Here's a work I started in 2014 and last touched back in 2016. This car served as the base for the Slantnose model I made.

There are many subtle modifications

• Narrow body front bumper adapted to turbo body from FM4 Yellowbird
• Turbo LE Rear Brake Vents (still need to model the slats)
• Sunroof delete
• Tea tray spoiler with whale tail lip and custom grille
• Custom rear taillight panel
• Cup mirrors from Shift 2 74 RSR
• Oil cooler from Shift 2 KPGC10
• European rear bumperettes
• OMP seats with 928 Pascha fabric
• Wooden N2 steering wheel from rFactor
• BBS RS rims from Koenig Testarossa, 17 spoke fronts, 15 spoke rears
• Later 930 Dash swap from Real Racing 3 964 Speedster
• Probably more I am forgetting

Happy New Year! 2022!

Hard to believe it has been almost 10 years since I started this blog. While it seems myself and many others have moved on, I always enjoy checking upon the page to see if anyone has been posting any new works. To those of you still going, keep it up and keep the scene alive!

I have been playing NFS Heat recently as it was on Steam sale. It is incredible to see how far in-game car customization has come! If it were 7 years ago I would have been all over this 180SX model for the built in Sileighty conversion (with bricks!) 

More Tire Textures [Download]

I have more tire textures. Same as the last time, some parts like the sidewalls are not by me but the tread textures are, and they tileable. This time they're in .png format because it takes up less space.

Right click to save them. If they're too dark or light, adjust the brightness and contrast of them.

Yokohama Advan A050

I made these for the Kanjo Wonder Civic.

I did not make the sidewall (I think it came from GRID Autosport), but I created a version with stenciled lettering. I made the tread.

Panasport Racing G7-C5C

The Panasport Racing G7-C5C is a famous wheel from the the late '80s and early '90s.
I modeled the wheel in Autodesk Inventor, triangulated it in 3DS Max and textured it ZModeler.

Mickey Thompson Rader

These "Rader" wheels first appeared in the mid 1960's and were produced by Mickey Thompson, Rader and many other companies. Similar to the Cragar S/S, these wheels were used on show cars, drag cars, low riders and street cars. Raders came in many different variants, depending on the manufacturer and version. These are the Mickey Thompson brand early version, which had only rib. A later version had 3 ribs, and was made famous on the 1966 Batmobile.

SSR Professor SP1 [Download]

I decided to polish off my old SSR Professor SP1 wheels that I made like three years ago. I fixed some normals issues, and I used a better tire with my Proxes T1R textures and my new brake disk and wheel nut. If I remember correctly, the wheel contains parts by FR-Style and the center cap and texture is by CS' Custom. The model is old, so it is not entirely accurate, and I don't claim it to be. However, since people have asked for it, and I don't mind, here you go. Textures are included in the .z3d.

Brake Rotor and Axle Nut [Download]

I could not find any stock looking generic brake rotors that I liked, so I decided to make my own. None of them had a modeled backside, and many were just flat cylinders. You may have seen the axle nut used in other cars I have made; I think I made it for the BN Sports FD3S RX7, but I'm not certain. I made it a year or two ago but I fixed some normals errors with it. The axle nut is visible when wheels do not have a center cap. This is often the case with racing wheels such as Work's Meister series. I am providing it for download so your cars and wheels can look more complete. If you use it, please credit me.

I modeled the inside and backside of the rotor

The axle nut is exposed

Stack Cluster (Integrated Race Dash Display) - v2

The Stack "Integrated Race Dash Display", or "Stack Cluster" as many know it, is a famous gauge setup that has been used by Koenigsegg, Lotus, and even Abflug in their 90's Porsche demo car. I first modeled the Stack Cluster about 2.5 years ago. This time around I have made numerous improvements. You can view the original post here.
