Installation:

Create copies of wil/bil.sty and nyc.gci. Rename the copies something like wil.bak and nyc.bak. Open nyc.gci using Notepad and find model 13 which is the Minx. Replace the specs with this:

{Minx}
13 {model}
1 {turbo}
60 {value}
0 {pad}
f11.000 {mass}
f0.500 {front drive bias}
f0.300 {front mass bias}
f2.000 {brake friction}
f0.550 {turn in}
f0.300 {turn ratio}
f1.000 {rear end stability}
f0.180 {handbrake slide value}
f0.216 {thrust}
f0.405 {max_speed}
f1.000 {anti strength}
f0.099 {skid threshhold}
f0.550 {gear1 multiplier}
f0.680 {gear2 multiplier}
f1.000 {gear3 multiplier}
f0.172 {gear2 speed}

Open STYed and find Car 13 (Minx), import my Car 13.bmp over the old bitmap. Edit the deltas and import DeltaSet13.bmp. In the car's Properties, change car width/heights to 28/58 (respectively) and use pallete number 31. Be sure you backed up your sty files before saving and playing GTA2. Find a Minx on levels 1 or 3.

The Maxi was orignally a four-seater saloon designed by Smash. Nothing interesting was in it, and it was a true waste of money. However the Maxi caught on and other designers started making their own Maxis. Above all these, the Jefe Maxi was the finest. All the features of the Smash Maxi were taken and replaced with racing components. It had a glass-fibre lightweight body with a furious beastly engine from the Lydiardo Mk1. Unlike in other Jefes, the engine power was tuned down, for safety purposes. Due to the size of the engine, the two back seats had been removed, but there's still luggage room. The bog-standard saloon headlights that appeared on fenders were replaced with quad lamps on the end of the bonnet. And the last touch was in the roundness of the car. The sharp edges of the old Smash Maxi were cut off to save space. The result of all this is a decent sportster.

Uninstallation:

	Find the backups of wil/bil.sty and nyc.gci and replace the new ones (that have the Maxi) with your backups.
