1989-1995 Ibishu 200BX
The Ibishu 200BX is a 2-door sports car built by Ibishu, which uses a front-engined, rear-wheel drive layout. Production ran from 1989 to 1994. The base engine is a 2.0L I4 making around 140 hp. Transmission will be a 4 speed auto or a 5 speed manual, like the Covet. There will be an optional turbo too (not as a factory option), and several stages of engine tuning and other custom performance parts. It is one of the most customizable cars in BeamNG.
1987-1991 Ibishu Covet
The Ibishu Covet is a small, three-door Japanese hatchback built by Ibishu. It is styled after certain Japanese models from around 1987-1995.
The Ibishu Covet is equipped with a high-revving 1.5L I4 engine by default, which outputs around 90 hp. The stock model weighs around 960kg. The car is available with either a 4-speed automatic or 5-speed manual transmission. 0-60 mph takes more than 10 seconds and the car will only reach 100 mph on a good day.
The Sport model increases power output to about 100 hp, and includes stiffer suspension and 16" basketweave alloy wheels.
The Beater is a dirty version of the car with broken suspension which badly affects the handling. It can reach 60 mph in around 18 seconds. The Beater is the cheapest variant of the Covet so it makes a great project car or demo derby candidate.
The Turbo FWD Race configuration adds a Stage 2 Turbocharger, stiff race suspension, racing steering wheel, 6-speed race transmission, limited-slip differential, faster 720 degree steering rack, roll cage, and swaps the default hubcapped steel wheels with custom 17" alloys. With the Stage 1 Turbocharger, engine output is increased to around 180hp and the car can reach 60 mph in around 6.3 seconds. Top speed exceeds 130 mph.
The Turbo FWD Rally configuration includes the same upgrades as the Race configuration, but offers rally coilovers instead of race coilovers, 16" rally wheels, and a tight 540 degree steering rack. The output and weight of the Rally and Race models are identical, but the Covet Rally is more suited to harsh terrain as its suspension has been completely retuned with variable-rate springs and advanced two-way dampers.
The light weight of the Covet and its FWD system result in fast, responsive handling. It has a tendency for mechanical oversteer and power understeer, resulting in balanced, tossable behavior. In terms of safety, the Covet is relatively unsafe. During low-speed collisions, the soft body of the vehicle will absorb the impact very well, but the majority of the vehicle's structure lacks the rigidity to keep it in shape during an impact, meaning parts of the car may crumple inwards, potentially hurting occupants.
Overview Of Model
1988-1991 Ibishu pessima
The 1988 Ibishu Pessima is the first version of the Pessima to be released chronologically. In it's base trims, it's a family-friendly A-to-B car perfect for everyday use, but performance models are crafted for power and speed. Among other things, the 88' Pessima was the first official vehicle to include all wheel steering.
Development
“About 10 years older than the dreadful melty Pessima, and probably quite a bit more enjoyable to drive too…”
—gabester, BeamNG Dev Blog, 10 December 2012
During it's development, it was shown as a 1989 model. When it was released, it was changed to 1988.
The body shell of the '88 Pessima was first leaked in December 2012. In the first vehicle poll on the forums, this vehicle came second-to-last, with 15 votes.[1] In the next poll, it did somewhat better, coming in sixth place with 18 votes.[2]
A screenshot of the Pessima ZX was posted just ten days before it was released with the 0.5.0 update on December 18, 2015.[3]
Overview of Models
1.8 DX
The DX is the cheapest model of the lot. It is very generic inside-and-out, such as having flat 16-slotted hubcaps, a gray interior, and a 1.8L I4 SOHC engine. This model is available with a manual or automatic transmission.
1.8 HX
The HX model is simply a fuel-efficient DX. Changes from the DX consist of an aerodynamic grille and hubcaps, tires with low rolling resistance, and a unique manual transmission with tall gearing. It also has a blue interior.
2.0 LX
The DX is the mid-range production trim. This model has a slightly more powerful 2.0L I4 DOHC engine, as well as nicer-looking hubcaps, airbag steering wheel, and a black interior which matches up better with certain parts of the dashboard and carpet. This model is available with a manual or automatic transmission.
2.0 ZX
The ZX is the midline between "user-friendly" and "power frenzy". This model has a sport intake, sport suspension parts, sport brakes, quick ratio steering, limited-slip differential, small rear spoiler, white dish hubcaps, body colored trim, and a brown interior. The emblem is on the bonnet instead of the grille like other models.
2.0 ZX AWS
This ZX variant has all-wheel-steering, making it a very nimble performer. It is the only vehicle in the game so far to have AWS. It also has blade wheels, and the black interior from the DX.
2.0 GTz
The GTz is the highest level production model. Carrying over from the ZX, this model has a GTz (Stage 1) turbocharger, all-wheel-drive, unique brakes, strut bar, spoked hubcaps, and a red interior. The emblem is placed on the grille again like the lesser trims.
Custom
The Custom is one of the fastest models of the Pessima. It has a Stage 2 turbocharger, high-performance radiator, carbon fibre vented hood, 5-lug black spoked wheels, race brakes, an Arnida Corsa racing wheel, and the black interior. It lacks trunk badging and anti-lock brakes, which were present in other trims.
Race
The Race is derived from the GTz, with an added vented hood, rollcage, skidplate, race suspension and steering, race manual transmission, and Nomi wheel, though it takes elements from a few other models. The front emblem is on the hood like the ZX. It uses the gray interior from the DX. It has 5-lug spoked wheels (white this time) and race brakes, and is missing the trunk badging like the Custom. It also does not have door panels, a passenger seat, a rear bench, or a rear spoiler.
Rally
The Rally, based closest to the Race, is equipped with a 1992 Utah Rally livery, as well as rally coilovers, wheels, lights, and an alternate Nomi wheel. Unlike the Race, the passenger seat is retained.
Hill Climb
The Hill Climb, also based on the Race, has a widebody kit, and tall rear spoiler, providing lots of downforce. A substantial power increase comes from a Stage 3 variable boost turbocharger. It also has a carbon fibre vented hood and spoked wheels.
