Toyota Scion Tc Or Similar Required...

[Daves_SFX]

Hi all, I’m Dave and I’m a video games sound designer.

I’m looking for two hot sounding Scion TC to be available for recording on the rolling road in the anechoic chamber at MIRA (Motor Industry Research Association) facility in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, UK

http://www.mira.co.uk/

Toyota Scion TC is a new car as far as I'm aware - so if I can't source any / any modded ones, I'm looking for something with a similar engine type that being 2.4-liter 4cyl DOHC VVT-i

Perhaps you guys can recommend...

What we need:

1) For you to be available – sometime between 3rd>5th October

2) TWO of each car – if you have a mate on the forum with a suitable car, could be a good time to meet up. Recording slots will be allocated and we will arrange for vehicle pairs to arrive same day/time if possible.

3) Modified car – anything that affects how it sounds is important. De-cat pipe, after market exhaust, air filter etc. The LOUDER the better

4) Preferably to be reasonably close to Nuneaton – last time we had a £200 bill for an RX7 to drive from Scotland!

We offer:

1) Credit in the game (follow up to a #1 title)

2) Petrol paid

3) Copy of game on your platform of choice - PS2, XBOX, PSP or PC.

4) .MP3 of your car recorded seperate eng/exh

Please PM me if you are interested. I’ll give you the email and phone number of a contact at the developers so you can check the authenticity of this request. Of course you’ll get mine as well.

Here is a list of ALL the cars we are looking to source should you know anybody with one:

EDIT: Sourced All except ** two cars / *one car

1) 2005 Ford Mustang (4.6Litre, 24v V8, 300bhp, 4500rpm)

2) 2004/5 Renault Clio Sport V6 (V6, 3.0Litre, 24v V6, 226bmp, 7550rpm)

3) 1998 Fiat Coupe (2.0Litre, 20v, Turbo, 220bhp@5759rpm)

4) 2005 Citroen C2 VTR (1.6Litre, 16v, 4cyl)

5) 2004/5 Seat Ibiza Cupra Sport (1.8Litre 20v turbo, 255bhp, 5900rpm)

6) *2004/5 Renault Megane (2.0Litre, 16v turbo, 225bhp, 5500rpm)

7) **2005 Toyota Scion TC (2.4Litre, 160bhp, 5700rpm)

8) **New Honda - ??? – Apparently under NDA (might be like a Civic?)

Thanks,

Dave

Hmm, would have been nice of the devs to give me that little piece of crucial info!

Thanks, I now know I'm looking for a sound alike, suppose it opens up a few more cars.

Anybody got any suggestions?

Cheers,

Dave

There is tumbleweed blowing through this thread!

OK, would anybodody know a similar sounding Toyota to source? Or shall I just use a Honda VTEC instead?

[Daves_SFX]

Having considered all the VVT Toyotas we'd now like to source two new type Celica for use as Scion TC engine sound in-game.

An hour of your time at MIRA sometime between 3rd > 5th October.

Again, we offer:

1) Credit in the game (which is follow up to a #1 title)

2) Petrol paid

3) Copy of game on your platform of choice - PS2, XBOX, PSP or PC.

4) .MP3 of your car recorded seperate eng/exh

And if I don't get any offers on here could some kind soul please point me to a forum I might ?

Thanks,

Dave
