Ok, I got in contact with the creators of this awesome car model, and as soon as I have any news I'll let you know. The Toro is going to arrive to TDU for sure :bananadance: saleens281

Guys, is there anyone who could make the conversion? The models are already done, the only work necessary here would only be a conversion, that's all.. saleens281

Mr Spongie, you have to be kidding. It seems you never heard the sound of a Torino Engine. I leave you here a link to the thread about it http://forum.tdu-central.com/showthread.php?t=20249 And I leave you here some videos to show you, you can't compare a TORINO with a ford sierra. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnXeN4Y4jy8 saleens281

Guys, if you think the Sierra Cosworth is nice, why don't you take a look at the IKA torino vehicle request thread created by me? You'll get surprised if you like muscle cars. saleens281

It seems you did not even read the post... "Now that we know a little about this beautiful car, let's focus on TDU. Some Argentinian modders (Victor Fernández, also known as "VeeF", and B375 Virtual Motors) have recently (2 months ago) done an IKA Torino Mod for the most popular racing simulator called Rfactor." saleens281

-- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- IKA-Renault Torino A little description of the car: The IKA Torino, later Renault Torino, is an automobile made by Industrias Kaiser Argentina (IKA) under an agreement with American Motors (AMC) in 1966. The 1966 Torino was IKA’s first integral national product and IKA was eventually bought out by Renault in 1975 to form Renault Argentina S.A. The Torino was built on the same AMC platform (AMC's Rambler American) all the way through 1981 in both two-door hardtop and four-door sedan variants. It has been called Argentina's national car. The Torino began life as an Argentine hybrid of AMC's 1964-65 Rambler American with exclusively designed front and rear body panels, bumpers and interior. Over the years, the Torino became mostly a product of Argentina with few imported parts and the engines were never sourced from AMC. The Torino was equipped with with 3.77 L, overhead camshaft, straight-6 Jeep Tornado Engines, that were originally developed by IKA. At the Torino's debut on 30 November, 1966, at the Municipal Racing circuit of Buenos Aires (which is used for the Formula 1 race every year), three models were available: a 4-door sedan with 3.0 L and 3-speed transmission, a 2-door coupe with 3.0 L with a Holley carburetor and a 4-speedZF manual gearbox, and a top-of-the-line "380W" equipped with an enlarged 3.77 L engine with 3 horizontally mounted Weber 2-barrel carburetors. The 3.77 L produced 215 horsepower, making the 380W capable of 205 kph top speed. The car was successful in Argentina, and, when released, it placed well in international races against famous sport cars. The most important race was the "84 hours of Nürburgring" in 1969, with a Torino finishing in third place. _________________________________________________ Now that we know a little about this beautiful car, let's focus on TDU. Some Argentinian modders (Victor Fernández, also known as "VeeF", and B375 Virtual Motors) have recently (2 months ago) done an IKA Torino Mod for the most popular racing simulator called Rfactor. The idea would be to convert the 4 most significant versions of Torino (380W, GS200, TSX and ZX), from Rfactor to TDU. All of these versions are included in the Mod. So, why don't we take a look at these Argentinian modders hard work? Here we go: Torino 380W: -Front: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- -Side: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- -Rear: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- Torino GS200: -Front: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- -Side: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- -Rear: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- Torino TSX: -Front: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- -Side: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- -Rear: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- Torino ZX: -Front: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- -Side: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- -Rear: -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- So yeah, we need the support of a good modder like Tool831, to convert these 4 versions of the Torino. Notice that all the models are perfectly done, but we should make some modifications: - The exhausts look too big, they should be smaller. - We should make a version of each Torino without its chromed bumpers. - The interior should be reworked since it is not very detailed and it is low poly. And some textures could be replaced for better quality ones. - The rims of the Torinos look too big, please notice that the real ones are 15", so they should be made smaller. I guess that's all, hope you like the Torino as much as we, Argentinians, do.

Lovely car, I did already download it and I'm enjoying it :D

This is maybe the best car in tdu-central.

Nice!!!!!!

Nice model, though the interior should be reworked, I give it an 8/10

Nice work, though the car has more of a Pontiac Firebird, instead of an AMC Javelin. And the rims don't really fit it.

Well done, very nice model, keep it up.

Great!!!
