Same issue with the sound, I can't hear when have to change the gear.
One of the best mod ever BTW

you mean sound of the gear lever ? we will check
No, sorry. I mean the same issue like #61
Racing the AI with same cars, and they are so loud I can't hear anything else in cockpit view.

We will release update for this the next time we update this car it the mean time it sounds like toning down the AI sound is the workaround, which I do admit is not ideal if you have to then put it back up for other cars

Didn't you noticed that there is 2 different front grill?
There is a rounded and an angular The rounded grills are on the cars which is build from 1996.
(Check on supertouringregister!)
Here are some samples:
New:
Old: 
And you can see it in road cars:
(yes, it is not a 4 door, it is M3 coupe and cabrio, but it doesn't mean. I think it is some kind of facelift.)
So I think your car's nose is not wrong. Dirk Steffen uploaded a picture from an older car. (You made the 1998 version...)
there's also another issue, these car crashed a lot, so when teams were reparing parts, they took whatever they had, so I think it's all over the place
but yes absolutely, there was some kind of facelift for sure
the one that I like the most is this one, and that's what I'm trying to match to
we are indeed making '98 version, the most modern
and yeah, I think we are close

Why the car steering wheel degrees 240° only ？

@Simberia
A bunch of touring cars have very quick racks of 2.5 turns or less, so probably...because it should be?
Any better suggestions?

@Simberia
The likely answer for most well made physics is "because it should be". Do you have data which suggests otherwise? Share it please.
as Kyuubeey said, I wouldn't question physics or anything without any documentation that says a different thing for that same car and category. maybe STW used 300 degrees? maybe for hill climb they use 450, who knows. theres documentation for everything and you would have to do the research to prove they have wrong data.
plus they've shader already lots of documentation here so they did some researchh, this is not the ordinary facebook mod
even that alone makes no sense directly since it depends on the whole suspension geometry

Just the rack ratio will not tell you much because it depends on the knuckle and rack geometry ie: rack travel. It's usually pretty hard to find a documented value for rack travel in racecars. I imagine they put steering stops into the racks on purpose to limit it so it doesn't rub the fenders and cause damage if the car spins for example.
absolutelly, feel free to follow our 'work in progress' thread, which can answer many questions

we tried to make our mods realistic, which sometimes mean adding things we don't like, such as small steering lock. It's considerably small turning circle then Primera, but that's what the car had
@Leonardo Ratafiá brings up a good point though, that hillclimb versions of this car might have been modified , and perhaps we could do a hillclimb version too, don't know
@Ben Lee can give you an answer where does the number come from

Long time with no real news. We have had more traction recently and have recruited another bunch of excellent modders who are now working under the "PM3DM" banner. Irfan Pratama Paule_NLC The_IC Reference_92 A lot of progress has been made on the 406 BTCC / STW car, also we have also had...

onboard sounds volume definitely needs to be tuned. just do a race with bmw only and you can't hear your in car sound, you get deafened by the other cars' external sound
I know someone mentioned already

yes, the balance is bit more towards surrounding car, when compared to kunos cars
what needs to change imo is make the engine inside louder, rather then tweaking the AI cars, which could also mean increasing volume of the transmission even more

it's not the AI cars, it's the external sound, it's probably too loud, online is the same thing,
I compared to other cars - from Kunos - and the volume of the surrounding cars was abou the same, its' the engine that's louder in Kunos car, imo
