Description

1978 Porsche 935/78 Coupe Moby Dick Silver Edition

[Description] This originally started out as a tuned sim
of my favourite car in the game, but I figured
it would need a skin. Why mess with
perfection? I didnt make any drastic changes
to the cars performance and made only subtle
changes to the appearance. This car tears up
the Monte Carlo circuits like theyre nothing,
but still makes quick work of the A to B tracks
as well. Dont worry, the automatic transmission
isnt affected by lack of a rev limiter. (You should
really use manual though. Autos suck on twisty courses.)

[Performance] I started by simulating bigger
twin turbos by increasing the
power across the rev range,
then exponentially higher from
5000 RPMs onward when the turbos
spool. I lightened the weight by
roughly 100 kilograms and *slightly*
changed the gear ratios so that it will
scoot up to 300 km/h (186 mph) then
level out. About the same top speed
of the stock 935, but a much faster
acceleration. It takes about 18 seconds
to reach 300 km/h from 0. I took away
some of the body roll so that it is more
stable through high speed turns. I took
off the rev limiter for smoother launches,
there wasnt a hell of a lot of traction
once those turbos spooled and the
rev limiter kicked the engine back
to 4000 RPMs each time. This also
allows high-speed cruising without
having to tap the throttle. The
steering, aerodynamics, and anything
else I missed remains the same. I
did all this in hopes of creating
a quicker, more agile car without
destroying the easy drivability of
the original 935. Any statistics I
gave you were from the stock tune.
Everything on this car is tunable,
so you can probably push it up to
200 mph.

[Appearance] One of my biggest beefs with the
original 935 was the wheels that it
came with. Those damn ugly spoked
wheels. The first thing I did was
change those wheels to some nice
steel 5 spokes. After that, I moved
on to the mesh grill. The designers
must have gotten lazy, so I cooked
up a grill that is more true to life.
I applied a polished metal texture to
the body to and aptly designated the
car a Silver Edition. I replaced
the fuel caps with one that is, again,
more true to life. I deleted the rear
fender vents, leaving only the front
ones. I also deleted a couple other
things that the designers slapped on
the body to give it a cleaner look. I
lightly tinted the windows, uh, silvery.
I also changed the tachometer to a more
readable font and made the redline more
visible.

[Installation] 1. Extract this zip to a temporary directory.
2. Copy the Savedata and Gamedata folders to your main
Porsche Unleashed Installation folder.
3. *OPTIONAL* Use the Carsuite tool provided to transfer
the car to your savegame.

Enjoy! Any questions or comments can be directed to Sentry
