3D Cad Model
 
Hi All,

Done a bit of a search but can't find anything available recently. I am looking a 3d Model (interior detail not required) to be used in Autodesk Inventor and possibly run some CFD on.

At this stage any free model of either twins would be good for a starting point.

Will be looking in the near future for a model that captures some of the under body detail.

Would prefer a free model if available as it is just for a bit of fun playing around at this stage. Will consider parting with some cash if required for the right model (detailed under body).

Mods - not sure if this is in the right section as nothing seemed relevant.

I have a couple in different formats , let me know what type of .file you need. my email is matthewgould32@gmail.com . I work professionally using 3D software.

Sup man. I am a technical designer certified in Solidworks and figured I could help here. Unfortunately models with reliable detail are quite expensive. I actually talked to Velox Eric a while ago on the matter, and this is what he said:

"We bought it through a data exchange program. You have to be a manufacturer and pay a rather large fee but it helps in designing. It isn't available to the public basically."

That basically killed my dreams of owning a model. Sorry to be a downer. I just thought I would tell you straight.

If I can find what hard drive there on :bonk: .

I am not the creator of this model, but I was able to download it from a website a while back (a year ago) that dealt with the video game forza model and in turn translated it by the polygons in different .file types with a 3D convertor program I have.

I do commercial animation on products, fastest way for me to do my job is to take the CAD file and translate it into my 3D animation program so I can focus on the rendering and animation process instead of modeling.

Ive seen a couple threads about this topic on this forum, not sure if thats how I found it . I do remember I searched long and hard. I wanted to do some renders and ideas for my car but never got around to messing with the model to much. But I did translate it into a couple .file types. Just have to find them ! :mad0260:

Sounds like Sema Exchange at $360/year and need to be approved.

There are a couple of companies that sell 3D models that are used by racing sim modders to develop new cars for sims - not sure of the file formats offered - they typically run about $65 IIRC.

Here is a free Revit 3D model of the GT86/FR-S. I'm pretty sure it can be exported into other Autodesk file types, but don't ask me how:

SEMA and Scion are *VERY* cautious with the FR-S/GT86 data, since they have been burned by a couple vendors that didn't abide by the rules. I know one SEMA member that was denied, because of a past association with these vendors.

Bumping this back up to see if anyone has a file? Still no luck. Have found some 3ds files and a file done in Creo but no luck converting it to a solid file in Inventor.

Does not have to be overly detailed, just need the general exterior shape to do some basic CFD.

Please post if you do find anything. I'm also using Inventor. We should be able to import .stp, .iges, or .sat. relatively easy.

I sent you a pm , sorry don't check on the forums to much since getting rid of the brz. I was able to convert it to a .stl .obj .wrl .c4d . Thats all i can export at the moment should work. Sent it to your email

Nofiboy 02-28-2017 02:24 PM

Hey @gouldilocks . Any chance I could also get the CAD in .stl format?
