Mazda RX-7 & RX-8 Sound Fix
Installation is really simple, you need only to copy the SOUND folder to your Carbon root directory, import the mod script (MazdaSoundFix.nfsms) using NFS-VltEd or OGVI, and save your changes. That's all there is to it.
This mod is compatible with Improvement Mod V2 by 379Felipe (https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/855). You can also apply those fixes to the Mazda RX-8 Mazdaspeed that comes with his mod.
Changelog:
V3.0:
- Engine & exhaust loop volumes fixed (thanks to DJ92GTRExtreme, download the original mod here: https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/1653);
- RX-8 engine sounds recreated based on maz_rx7_b – I had to do that because the default maz_rx8 ABKs didn't play well with something;
- Stock RX-8 exhaust now uses GIN files forward-ported from Most Wanted 2005 (PC version);
- Tuned RX-8 exhaust now uses GIN files backported from Hot Pursuit 2010 (kudos to therazorkille, get their mod here: https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/3594)
- Improvement Mod V2 support: RX-8 Mazdaspeed also uses our fixed sounds.
V2.0:
- Fixed a few borks here and there;
- Initial RX-8 fixes (used GIN files ported from ProStreet by yash12396, you can find them here: https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/693).
V1.0:
- Initial relase: RX-7 fixes only (ported rev limiter ABK samples from PS2, lowered rev limit).

@alexdivi96 I'll see what I can do about that. not all PC sounds need fixing

@DS1996 Can you use all the engine sounds from the PS2 version of NFS Carbon and Most Wanted? https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/6328DS1996 (February 12, 2026 @ 19:07)
