anyone still hybriding on GT3?

I recently bought another GT3 so I could do some mods on it. Does anyone have the monster cruiser? It was set up like a 4x4.

I've been going crazy on hybriding for the past week or so, in fact. My current favorite is a Miata with the roll cage, wider tires and a turbocharged PT Cruiser engine.
I also have a lot of fun in my GTR Z-Tune recreation, and GTR recreation.

glad to see i'm not alone.ha
do you have the link to the different wheel sizes for each car?

Nah. I've heard there is a program, but I can't find it. I am just doing it by hand using various automotive databases (something Supercars.net is good for, for once) and a online tire conversion tool (so you don't get tires too tall).

The Miata actually sounds like a cool hybrid. 👍 I would drive it! The GTR, too.

Does dropping a PT cruiser engine in the Miata give it a torquey-er feel?

Completely transforms the car. I prefer it in every way, because the throttle response is much better.

Ive just now got into it a bit, yeah i know...im a few years behind I havent seen a roll cage part to place though? Im using MK's program to do everything, how do you go about placing the cage?

Cool. That's what I figured. The Pt Cruiser engine is very "in your face" for a 4-banger...the only prob is its in a heavily-understeering, front-drive layout. I'd love to see it thrown into a RWD Miata. 👍

It is one of the car bodies. Something like "miata 89 opt" or something. There is a green roll cage one, a silver roll cage one, and a silver one with a spoiler and Japanese plates.

i was pretty heavy into it a few years ago. once gt4 came out i got rid of gt3 expecting to be able to mod gt4 but it's not working out that way. so i thought i'd get another gt3 and mod some but it's getting hard to get the codes these days. i'm using a gameshark. i know you can mod using your computer but i like using the gameshark.
