It's time to stop revolving around the FZ5, mods are here for that + I just hate the FZ5 sound, we finally have alternatives to the FZ5, so at least, keep FZ5 parts out of it.

I did play quite some time with the FXO AWD (and the FZ5 T too) with restriction to FZ5 hp/ton ratio (265hp/ton dry) to test if equal numbers would be good, maybe it was me, but I think it was a little bit slower (keep in mind i'm mainly playing with the cop set of the car VS fine-tuned-by-10-years-of-playing FZ5 setups)

I'd say, to get close to a good match, keep the current tires,

Power change : from 420 hp to 375 hp
Weight change : from 1309 kg to 1370kg

So we're at 278hp/ton, while the FZ5 is at 265. If needed, get closer to 265hp/ton dry.

(Problem is that the price will need to be lowered as the car isn't worth 55k anymore IMO)

But it's to propose a nerf, IMO, don't touch the car at all. I've been waiting for 400-450hp street cars in LFS for years, so I like these cars (like the FZ5 T, FZ50 GT, FZ30 and 40, ROSSI when it was here, Purosangue, FXO AWD and I'd like to see a Ferrari 355 / 360) and to be honest i would like more 300-320hp/ton cars on the server.

Couldn't agree more. I made the mod to be faster than TBO, originally it had around 370 bhp, but very low torque; hell, the clutch would get very hot very quickly. Then I increased torque (and made it peak at lower rpms, originally it peaked at around 4500 rpm, made it peak closer to the 3000 rpm mark) to combat said issue (thanks to Jardim for the suggestion hhhh), but as I increased torque, power did increase too. But then as the mod got older, it got faster. I never wanted to make it like GTR fast, that would be simply ridiculous.

"I'd say, to get close to a good match, keep the current tires,

That could be a suggestion, but that would defeat the purpose of those who are requesting a nerf, and I will happily nerf it if the vast majority of people want it. I was expecting this to happen already... too bad that some people can't really think of anything else than to, simply put, beg me to nerf the mod. What else can I do, really?
