I also need frontal area and coefficient of drag that isnt listed there. Ive been wanting to add Evo 1-4 but thats the big things missing that I need to add them.

 

ill see what i can do but it may be difficult to find.

 

Did you guys weight the car or just put a rough estimate of the weight? Do dynos have a scale on them? I have access to a certified truck scale, but I have just been leaving the default weight in(which is less than what my car really weighs). Are putting modifying the weight in the program?

 

I got mine weighed. I would try and keep the weight within 100lbs at most though.

There's all the info for the transmissions. The coefficient of drag is 0.29 for both 2g AWD and FWD. Frontal area is 20.3 (atleast that what I calculated.)

Anything else you need?

 

yeah the year and models that that information applies to.

 

1g is 89-94. 2g is 95-99.

 

are the weights the same for all 2g cars? Is the transmission the same on all 2gs?

 

1g FWD : 2791
1g AWD : 3108

2g FWD : 2921 M/T - 2998 A/T
2g AWD : 3157 M/T - 3234 A/T

 

Below is the exact format that I need. Just fill in your data and you can either paste it in an email or post it in a PM on this forum to me. Ill add it to the next release as long as I recieve it in time. Ill add all the 1g and 2g cars as long as they are in this format. That way I dont screw up and add a car wrong.

If you need a tire size calculator to figure the tire diameter ... use this one to input the tire specs and get the diameter. This should be using the stock tires. http://www.gtsparkplugs.com/TireCalculator.html

DSM FWD Transmission have slighty bigger gears so if anyone uses these numbers for their DSM, they can change the gears accordingly to the VFAQ page.

 

Hold on, I thought we already had 1g and 2g's in VD?

Or they not input correctly?

 

I did a fresh download and I only saw a 1g Talon on there.

 

Weird im seeing 2g eclipse on mine.

 

Weird. I guess something must have happened with mine to where it wasn't showing up. Mine works now ahaha.
