Class A :confused: steering very good on corners, shockin on straights great exhaust no underbody how about hyper yellow as a colour?? I'ts a great car around bathurst but if you are looking to overtake on straights, think again, steering throws you right into the wall with just one tap on the keyboard. monaro 01-18-2002, 10:33 PM And get some better mags on it too, they have been done like a dogs dinna maybe like these: http://www.boydcoddington.com/wheels/Gotcha/unknownlarge.jpg monaro 01-18-2002, 10:36 PM or these maybe; http://www.boydcoddington.com/wheels/Signature/coddzillalarge.jpg MattB 01-19-2002, 02:52 AM ummm monaro thanks for testing it so quick and ur reply, tho l'm not quite sure what parts u r saying are good, and wat parts are bad? please say it again, maybe l'm just stupid? lol monaro 01-19-2002, 03:07 AM bonnet, headlights and grill remind me of an EL GT (bad) great roll cage and driver (good), ?dash?

(something to do) Class A :confused: (way too fast for that class) steering very good on corners, (good) shockin on straights (bad) great exhaust (good) no underbody (bad) how about hyper yellow as a colour?? (question) I'ts a great car (good) around bathurst but if you are looking to overtake on straights, think again, steering throws you right into the wall with just one tap on the keyboard. (bad) MattB 01-19-2002, 03:12 AM thanks for the help monaro, l got a lot of work to do now the speed&handling hasn't been changed yet, and l haven't changed it to a higher class yet because it's only a beta....... wat u mean colour coded spoiler? andywoo1 01-19-2002, 04:57 AM Sorry I took so long to reply, no net till just now. I haven't yet recieved the car :( Try again, if I don't get it again, I'll PM you with my Dad's email. andy MattB 01-19-2002, 02:22 PM andywoo the email l sent must not of worked.....l'll send now.. y2kgoofball, have u revieved the car yet?? monaro 01-19-2002, 02:40 PM The spoiler is black when the rest of the car is another colour MattB 01-19-2002, 02:50 PM oh that, l personally like a black spoiler, it looks kinda weird having a brightyellow spoiler dont u think? l'll see what everyone else says and then l'll change it if the majority say so monaro 01-19-2002, 03:00 PM change those mags too, they are getting old like i said before. Use some with a bit of chrome, check out kevs Holden (HSV) VT Street Ute, those rims would look pretty nice on your machine MattB 01-19-2002, 05:49 PM andy, l'll send u the car when ur on msn next ok? cause l just sent it again, but l received an email saying some error's occured during sending the the mail..... fark man! l made a beta and l now have so much work to do on it :< did jase customs, y2kgoofball get the car yet? Y2kGoofball 01-19-2002, 08:47 PM I had a quick test drive and couldnt really see much to add. I like it - great job Matt Y2k andywoo1 01-20-2002, 12:33 AM Yeah, got your car Y2K. Matt, upload it somewhere private, and msg me with the location. I am behind a firewall so the only way to get things in and out from this computer is either Email or downloading/Uploading from/to the internet. andy Jase_Customs 01-20-2002, 02:49 AM Hey matt sorry i just got back on the internet today i will check out ur car soon I'll post some ideas later in the week Y2kGoofball 01-20-2002, 02:27 PM Hey all. Ok Matt - I'll agree with Monaro. The front looks like an EL falcon somehow. Maybe look at making a VX version to change the headlights?? I like the black spoiler too. It just looks better on a red car for some reason. Hyper Yellow - hmm, maybe because it's like a custom type car. It would look a bit out of the world but then again they made HSV coupe that colour!! And the last thing was yes - the steering and speed but like you said it's a beta so that can be changed. Otherwise great car Y2k Ps - Make a great cop car!! LOL :HB: :HB: MattB 01-20-2002, 03:42 PM ok so here is the plan. make a HYper yellow colour for monaro? make the car faster and turn better. try to fix the front lights and change the rims :) anything else? Y2kGoofball 01-20-2002, 05:44 PM Yes. I have something - a set of keys to a real one. I'll stop by later to finish the paperwork!! LOL:D I dint know about make it faster - I mean I'd say it's ok speed wise but I dont know. That's just me. Y2k monaro 01-20-2002, 09:43 PM thanks for the hyper yellow too. I dunno about sounds but wouldn't it be good if at high speed you could hear a screaming blower?? andywoo1 01-20-2002, 09:52 PM Well Monaro, you either must be driving your car wrong or you can’t drive at all. I just had a whirl in the HSV MOD and it ran beautifully. I only found a few minor hiccups in the car, but apart from these, it’s next to perfect. a) The SV99 logo is still on the side on the car, just before the rear wheel. b) The reverse lights, something doesn’t look right there… c) Engine note, sounds like a Ricer to me. d) Rear left wheel (may be others too, but I could only notice on this one), the rim has a white fuzziness to it. That’s all I could find wrong, but then again, it may just be that they are supposed to be this way. Forgive my spelling, as I am using my old Natural Keyboard and it’s hard to get used to it again. It handles like a real modified Commodore should, accelerates good (not too fast like mine), and the top speed, I dunno yet, need to find a track to reach it on. Interior is an interior, but hey, not EVERYTHING is perfect. Those exhaust pipes rule too. Grill looks great, but that “thing” on the bonnet, Hmm… Strange. Also, as Monaro did say, Class A, and why don’t you make the serial number 5 (Replace that yank thing, what was it again... Oh I can’t remember, oh yeah, the Camaro). I think that’s about it… One more thing, Fix those colour names! andy MattB 01-20-2002, 10:38 PM ok, l'll get rid of the SV99logo :> and l'll change the names for the colours, any colours that u'd like to see in the car? l'm currently trying to change the rims and use kevs ones from his HSV UTE, but it screws the wheel up, gotta work that out. l dont know why it sounds like a ricer, its got the same sound files as the original HSV SV99 ??? and l cant find what wrong with the rear lights? please tell me about the scoop on the bonnet, it looks so good in wireframe &carcad.....but in when l play HS it looks like shit. ............what type of scopp should l put on it then? l would like to thank every1 for testing the car monaro 01-20-2002, 10:38 PM well, andywoo, i can drive and the steering still sucks. try and not hit the first wall around bathurst and then tell me how you went. a) i told matt about the sv99 badge b) reverse lights are beatiful c) only a beta, they are default sounds d) all the wheels are bad and hopefully he will change them check out behind the rear guard, there is a very noticeable groove which is where the original SV99's body is connecting with the mod's VX HSV style rear starts, fix it and the bonnet up and your body mods are done. I am having second thoughts about the black spoiler, it's growing on me monaro 01-20-2002, 10:41 PM go walky style or VN SS MattB 01-20-2002, 10:46 PM every1, this l'll made u all happy, there will be nice new wheels soon :) monaro 01-20-2002, 10:54 PM beatiful, what do they look like are they off kevs hsv ute? andywoo1 01-20-2002, 11:00 PM Ok Monaro, so what If you told him already... a) And your point being? b)The reverse lights are tooo close to the tail lights, as if they have been dragged in towards them. c) Fixed. d) I know they are bad. So did he I think. andy dkaarma 01-20-2002, 11:02 PM I would love to test any of your vehicles that you make!! I would prefer to download them off the net rather then an email as i have a limited email account. Also me and many of my collegues would love it if you designed a NSW Ambulance Keep up the great work dkaarma MattB 01-20-2002, 11:06 PM goodnews, evoness has just said to me that he'll try and make me some fully 3D wheels............ here is a pic of a wheel he made for his own cars....... http://community.webshots.com/storage/1/v3/6/22/4/29662204iXFrhQWndY_ph.jpg very nice dont u think? andywoo1 01-20-2002, 11:10 PM No pic man, try attatch it. andy MattB 01-20-2002, 11:36 PM http://community.webshots.com/storage/1/v3/6/22/4/29662204iXFrhQWndY_ph.jpg if that dont work. this the link http://community.webshots.com/storage/1/v3/6/22/4/29662204iXFrhQWndY_ph.jpg monaro 01-21-2002, 12:13 AM Originally posted by andywoo1 Ok Monaro, so what If you told him already... a) And your point being? b)The reverse lights are tooo close to the tail lights, as if they have been dragged in towards them. c) Fixed. d) I know they are bad. So did he I think. andy a) you don't need to tell him again, he isn't dyslexic like you, see point B and D b) you are blind c) excactly d) i can't make sense of that, does he think or you think?? Anyway, shutup. this isn't a fight I'm just pissed how you said it's my driving or i can't drive at all where the **** did you pull that from, the steering sucks and matt admits now unless you are peter brock who you aren't you couldn't drive that car without hitting a wall because of its retarted steering. so ^_^ andywoo1 01-21-2002, 02:15 AM Look, I was not knocking your driving, all I said was that the car handles fine to me. I am probablly used to it as my car does the same. Also, Insult me again, you will not be around to see the next post. (ie, mods will be notified.) andy monaro 01-21-2002, 04:06 AM (THIS IS NOT AN INSULT) but jesus, were only talking about a fukin computer game here, get real, for fuks sake andywoo1 01-21-2002, 05:48 AM Tsk tsk tsk... andy MattB 01-21-2002, 01:27 PM errrr, both of u please just shutup^_^ na seriously, dont fight..... this is one of the longest posts on aussiemuscle, dont want it to be because of a flame war do we? dkaarma,l'm clad u like my car, l may make an abulance one day, who are u colegues ? Y2kGoofball 01-24-2002, 02:00 PM Hey fighting gets your post number up - before you know it your a senior member!! Y2k Ps - I dont wanna take part in this fight. I'll tell ya all the probs I found on ICQ MattB 01-24-2002, 02:30 PM ^_^ l know all about becoming a senior member, look at how many posts l got? or goto memeber, top ten posters :D y2k, u better not find to many problems, lol Y2kGoofball 01-24-2002, 04:57 PM LOL!!!^_^ monaro 01-24-2002, 09:44 PM how's the mod going matt, mags on yet? when can we see it on aussie muscle? Y2kGoofball 01-24-2002, 09:48 PM Yeah Matt - Look what you did asking us what was wrong now where is it!! Nah just kidding - but I wouldnt mind seeing it with the wheels on it etc Y2k MattB 01-24-2002, 11:31 PM evoness is till making the rims, but trust me they are worth it....... each wheels should have over 800polys <ouch> just keep waiting, sorry Y2kGoofball 01-26-2002, 04:11 PM Take your time Matt cause in the end it's all worth it! Y2k monaro 01-28-2002, 05:11 AM i have a few ideas for the mod: alot of modified and tuned cars fro nfs have xenon headlights, they look great and i think would suit your car. NOS is very popular since the release of that no-plot, no-acting, no-idea of what speed and power is about movie so called the fast and the furious (furious because they get beaten by six-pack hemis^_^ ) since the release of the movie, holley performance products have recorded record sales in the nitrous department because mainstream idiots who follow the croud think they can run 8s and 9s on an engine that victor bray wouldn't use as a paperweight and a chassis you woudn't use as a book-end, any way back to the mod, NOS would be nice for performance reasons and in the attachment here there is a pic of a modified sv99 which uses both and pulls it off quite well i think, (let the performance speak for itself - 209mph in 2.96 seconds!!) MattB 01-28-2002, 01:43 PM monaro: l aint using no NOS shit for my holden, mainly because if u wanna use NOS in a HS car u have to do this gear shifting crap(l think u put it in reverse) it's so fast u can barely turn. if u look at some NFS sites everybody loves the F&F cars, but the way u have to use the NOS pisses em off, l dont wanna do 209mph in 2.96 seconds, thats just stupid........ about the lights, if u notice they are already Xenon headlights, l just have to make them a lil more blue. MattB 01-29-2002, 10:36 PM l promised that evoness will make great wheels, and he did, check these out........l just need to do soem more tweaking, l realli wanna thank evoness for making these wheels, it's made the car a HUGE lot better :D http://aussiemuscle.totalnfs.net/post/wheeldone.jpg http://aussiemuscle.totalnfs.net/post/wheelingame.jpg monaro 01-29-2002, 10:51 PM pass on my congrats to evoness for his job on the mags, i can now see where the 800 polys went, discs look great. have you raked the windscreen and chopped the roof? and have you made the lights more blue? just the bonnet and air dam to go now, oh and the spoiler looks great MattB 01-29-2002, 10:55 PM hehe l thought u'd like it...... l havent been able to do anything on the car since evoness has been working on it, so l'm hoping a few days? monaro 01-29-2002, 10:58 PM sounds good to me monaro 01-29-2002, 11:00 PM hey i got a good idea, ask evoness how to colour the calipers red, that would look hsvish MattB 01-29-2002, 11:14 PM well l can do the myself, cause evoness made it so wateva colour l make the drivers hair the calipers will be the same :) monaro 01-29-2002, 11:39 PM redheads aren't that bad, what do you reckon :p evoness 01-30-2002, 03:49 AM hey every one,finally got around to re-regestering onto racerplanet, matt. i cant wait for the release of that car, that body kitt is pretty damn good,thanks everyone for the comments about the wheels too,thats probably my best work so far gone into those,im glad theyre going on something so good, they seem to go with the car pretty good i think :) keep it up matt! :beer: MattB 01-30-2002, 12:18 PM hey evoness, u finally signed up again ?? cool :D now since ur've shown us all u can make good parts with a shitload of polys, u gotta go and make some cars with those high poly numbers monaro 01-30-2002, 06:13 PM but high polys can mean game problems lower running machines, anyway, your driver doesn't have hair, he has a helmet according to my already faded memory MattB 01-30-2002, 08:44 PM monaro, thats why the idea of changing the calipers using the drivers hair option is so good(u cant just choose wat u want to change, there are limitations there are yellow and red calipers so far, and a normal brown :) the game only runs slow for me in the game menu, a race with a full grid runs perfectly for me...... the system l used 533MHZ celeron128RAM voodoo3 3000 10GB HDD (lucky l play alot of games on PS2 now days :D ) andywoo1 01-31-2002, 01:50 AM Nice mags there mate. Look like they are made for Racer. BTW: My system absolutley $H!T$ on yours too. No offence of course. P4 1600Mhz @ 1800Mhz ATi Radeon 8500 250/250 @ 375/280 256MB Ram (More on the way...) 30GB HDD DVDROM LS120 And thats just the basic stats. I would have an AMD, but EVERY AMD I've had has scred up, even if it wasn't overclocked. andy MattB 01-31-2002, 01:57 AM yeh but l play PS2, <evil laughs> u gotta remember tho u just bought ur computer, and everyone always goes on about how good it is, 1-2yrs later every1 will be crapping on u, keep it in mind ^_^ andywoo1 01-31-2002, 02:12 AM Lol, 1-2 years time this will be sold. I always buy a new PC after 2 years max. andy BTW: My last pc was an 866, the one before that was a P3-450, before that was a 166. andy MattB 01-31-2002, 02:26 AM yhe my comp is 2yrs old now...........l'll be getting a new one soon, l hope..... l dont exactly have money growing out my arse andywoo1 01-31-2002, 03:45 AM Originally posted by Matthew Button l dont exactly have money growing out my arse lmao ^_^ ^_^ Neither do I, I "cheat" when selling my old computer for a new one. Say I bought mine for $2000, and 2 years later I want a new one, I'll sell my old one for the cost that the new one will be, which could be $1800. Get my drift... andy monaro 01-31-2002, 03:54 AM well i have a crate pc (like a crate motor) compaq fcked if i know gigachips 15 billion megawatiherz so there :D andywoo1 01-31-2002, 04:01 AM Originally posted by monaro well i have a crate pc (like a crate motor) compaq fcked if i know gigachips 15 billion megawatiherz so there :D Lol, I'd say its a Presario if its 15 billion Megawatiherz. Then again, it could be a Deskpro... andy MattB 01-31-2002, 09:24 PM ok, the HSV MOD ''should'' be done in 2days.......but l've been getting alot of skoolwork and l've been doing stuff for boss-racing and the aussiemod........so stay tuned l guess??? PS, andywoo l didn't recieve ur email wit ur car? monaro 01-31-2002, 09:57 PM can't wait matt Y2kGoofball 01-31-2002, 11:51 PM Sounds good huh!! I still use the beta mod though because it looks cool. The proper version should be better. Y2k Y2kGoofball 01-31-2002, 11:54 PM Sounds good huh!! I still use the beta mod though because it looks cool. The proper version should be better. Y2k Ps My old computer which I am still upgrading is 7 years old! This is it's second upgrade but now I am getting a complete new case with brand new Motherboard - and it's only cost be under $150 for a 600 Mhz system with new case/Floppy/CD rom plus all the usual crap of internal network card/vid and sound card/usb etc. andywoo1 02-01-2002, 01:38 AM Matt: I'll msg you in MSN. Y2K: Lol, I had a 600Mhz once, upgraded it to the 866Mhz. Also, I just re-loaded all my stuff, so I now have a dual-boot with XP/98SE. Hoping to install NFS3/4/5 onto that, along with some other games that don't work under XP. andy Y2kGoofball 02-01-2002, 02:34 AM Mate a 600Mhz may not be the fastest, it does seem to run games ok on our newer machine but for $150 for a just about new system aint bad when I've been seeing the same chip (just the chip alone) worth $200-$300. Just gotta know where to show I suppose. Y2k andywoo1 02-01-2002, 02:41 AM I'm gonna start a thread in the Main Forum asking PC Stats. Msg in there :P andy monaro 02-04-2002, 04:09 AM ignore this post, its to put me up to 100 posts monaro 02-04-2002, 04:10 AM !SENIOR MEMBER!
