[V1.0] Datsun 1600/510
Update to current version!
05.02.2011
V1.0
Changes:
-added shadow model
-added builtIn 1 line for Time Trial use
-fixed engine inertia typo in touge version
------------------------------------------
New beta means a new car, a VQ-swapped Datsun 510...a touge special!
For those of you who aren't familiar with the car, the Datsun 1600 (known internationally)/ 510 (known stateside) is a rally legend that in recent years has gained notoriety due to its relative availability, light weight, and spacious engine compartment--qualities that also guarantee its success in Forza, where it is second most popular vehicle ever operated.
Reflecting those qualities, i did a little research, found it was indeed possible to install a VQ engine from a Nissan 350z, and voila! Datsun 510 touge.
Enjoy, before Legacy goes down!

Thanks for the comments, guys! Any suggestions of changes, or any reason I shouldn't bump this up to V1.0?

and TT enabled as well =)
I like to have 2 versions with different engine sounds... Nice idea!
EDIT: Where is the driver external mirror?

Raul Julia, I miss that guy.
In the film I think it had more a's: Whasa behind me, ees a not eemportant.
Note to Don: Nice time at Mugello. I'll work on it, but I'm only on a keyboard these days.

something is wrong with version 1.0. Once I select the car, the game quit. I something there is a broken link to a file.
Re: [V1.0] Datsun 1600/510
Hmm...shadow model was not in the Datsun folder. Try it now, it should work.
