Hybrid Trading Thread: READ 1st POST!

Guys, can you help me with the brake swap of the car? Does it affect the handling of our rides? Because when I brake with my hybrid car, sometimes it skids. TIA!

I highly doubt it can be discussed here.
At least I wouldn't take the change 👍

There are other forums for those detailed questions and answers.
Google is your friend on that.

It's not how to do it. It's just about what brakes of a certain car is good or others that will help prevent my car from skidding or turning suddenly.
 
I just use carbon ceramics on everything and have not had a problem.

Personally I don't care, but do whatever you want.
If you cross a line, one of the MOD's will come and warn you :)

Do brake swaps even exist? I've never heard of them before.

Also, does anyone know if you can get AYC from a drivetrain swap with a car that has it...?
... I wonder if it's possible to actually swap the AYC part into another car?
 
I know there are hidden brake parts (I've never tried adding them), but I've never heard of an actual swap.

If it changes the brakes visually, then that would be awesome.
 
I'll look into it when I get back home - I'll probably also try out the hidden parts to see if they work.
I'm probably also going to look more into supercharger swaps, I currently use the aftermarket supercharger that you can buy for the Plymouth Cuda, but I'm wondering if there are any more powerful ones out there.
 
I hope I don't get some of my posts to be removed.

Hopefully they will since you/we have been told several times not to mention programs or versions...

And yes regular brake swaps can be done, and you can update to a previous version of GT5 to get the "hidden brake" codes..

With that said, that's only for now, lol. I hope they would forgive me.
 
Don't mention details about the software. You have the rest of the Internet for that.

You don't even need to do that if you perform some classified shenanigans, but you need to update to a previous version of GT5 to add them to cars unless you perform some other classified shenanigans...

Lmao yeah I know what you mean
 
Anyone got any realistic ideas I can do when I get home?

K20 swap into an Ek9 Civic
Caterham Fireblade engine swap into any Kei car
Impreza 22B boxer swap into a 1200 Beetle
Small-block Camaro V8 into gen 1 Miata
Impreza sedan boxer + turbo swap into BR-Z
RB26DETT swap into a Silvia (any generation)

A functional Kart that registers as a Kart, with 4wd and more than one gear.. I've done 10 and give up...

Is that 'I've tried to make one 10 times and failed' or 'I've made 10 4wd karts that have more than one gear'?

If the former, I haven't tried 4wd, but it's definitely possible to put a 4 cylinder engine and a chaparral 2j gearbox into a kart.

What do you mean functional kart ? I've done shifter karts since 2.11 days ( custom brake balance, custom tire, turbo 6 speed ), 4wd should be simple to add.

Well if you could build me one that would be awesome! Like I said, I can usually get everythiing except 4wd for some reason 👎 .. I'm far from one to fail but it happens to the best :D lol.. But yeah, 10 trys was enough for me!

See above ^ 👍
 
Caterham Fireblade engine swap into any Kei car

Done, with the Daihatsu Copen Active Top '02

I forgot to switch to better than comfort:med tires and that thing is a drift machine at eiger!

If you want to try it out I'll put it on share, the psn is in my sig

Pics:
coming up
 
Do you guys know what will happen if I put an S2000 chassis on my 4wd diesel Samba Bus? Thanks.

I sense drifter in that small block miata. I'll make the cars as soon as possible.

So as a follow up do you have a Kart I can borrow?

You will then have S2000 chassis in your 4wd diesel Samba Bus :)

What exactly do you want to know?

If the handling and top speed of the car will change but because the Samba Bus will still be a Samba Bus after all.

Don't know about top speed but handling should change. Test it out :)

Change chassis for one sheet only and then you can copy another sheet over it if you don't like it.

In addition to this correct statement; you can turn a car into 3 different hybrids, one set of hybriding on each sheet 👍

I've done this several times, especially for people who do not specify a drivetrain when the want a hybrid.. My FGT has 3 suspension, 1 being Samba Bus, 2 being Bentley speed 8, and 3 being the tank car.

How stupid would it be to take the Renesis engine from the RX-8 and stick it in a Caterham? Would it even fit, IRL? And could someone possibly do that for me?
 
Hey, guys. Has anyone tried getting the hard top on a Ferrari California without the wing?

I'll try to complete this today/tonight.

I will complete this later, do you need it sent or can you borrow glitch?
