Huh. If you do a drivetrain swap on the '90 Legacy, it removes the option to do drivetrain upgrades. But any upgrades you already did stay intact.

Also, converting it to RWD improves the handling and acceleration stats noticably, but lowers the PI by 20 points. Buh?

Are you sure? Subaru's inherit the race drivetrain from the race Subaru when you do the swap regardless of what you have on before the swap.

Yeah, you're right. Didn't realize that since I only have the S204 as my other Subaru, and doing a drivetrain swap on an Impreza just felt wrong so I never experimented with it.

Lamborghinis are more fun when RWD swapped too. And by "fun" I mean "mostly terrifying and more intent on killing you than usual".

Santa Fe, Union Pacific, and Amtrak (for good measure) would be my requests, and I'd love to get some train races going down.

Tried the Venom for the first time, not a fan. Going 265 down Mulsanne is fun, but I prefer the Veyron for ultracars. The smart and the Transit are worth the price of the back. I think I'll work up the Jeep next.

Oh, it's very much possible. The Carl Green Enterprise Pacer had a dealer-installed 401 V8, glad to see they put the V8 swap in the game.

Only in a Venom GT can you lose it on the Mulsanne straight, spin out of control, regain control and still be going 70mph 160mph sideways.

Yup.

Seconding this. For a few years a W&LE line marked the back of my property and between four wheeling sessions or paintball matches out there we'd take breaks and watch the trains.

edit:


If you do the well known old Rio Grande livery, you've basically done W&LE as well.

Goddamn that Santa Fe one is excellent, I'm tempted to steam the idea for the old Buick.

I think next time I play, however, I'll be spending all my time in the Austin-Healey. That thing is so drat cute!

Right. When you head into work at 0030, and then head home at 0600, and sleep until noon, things get kinda screwy.

Otherwise, here is my own original moving van:

If you're talking about the AUGR Trans-Am spec race, the cars are pre-tuned, and the tunes are available for free on the storefront of GamerTag Krautastic
