About this mod Machine translation
The fourth-generation Mazda MX-5 (also known as the "Miata" in North America and the "Eunos Roadster" in Japan) has been in production since 2015. It is a lightweight two-seat roadster with a front-engine and rear-wheel drive layout.
There is no perfect substitute for GTA5, but after many tests, I chose Surano. Of course, I tried to get the roof animation working on this car, but to no avail. I noticed that if I just import the original .yft into Z-modeler and export without any editing - the animation doesn't work.
I opened both .yft files in text and HEX browsers, hoping to find the differences and edit it...but to my surprise the original and Z-modeler files were completely different. I couldn't find any tips or tutorials on what to do, so I gave up. I decided to add a soft roof as one of the extra features.
Everything else looks fine to me. Adjust parts? -yes. Bonnet and Spoiler.But.. I also made a "stickerbomb". Most of the adjustment parts are actually clothing. Only the door was discovered.
I've included two templates in the .ytd file if you want to create your own look for it ("templatemod" - replace "modtexture", "templatemod2" replace "modtexture2"). enjoy your meal:)

Known bugs: Roofs and roof animation related - I removed the windows, but since the game doesn't recognize the extra roof as a roof, sometimes the driver can jump into the car through the roof. I didn't notice anything else - but maybe there's more.
Install:
Use OpenIV to replace the file.
1.Mods file ("surano_mods.rpf") is replaced with: "Grand Theft Auto V\mods\x64e.rpf\levels\gta5\vehicles.rpf"
- (Choose the plate-shaped folder you like)
Car files ("surano.yft", "surano_hi.yft" and "surano.ytd") replaced: "Grand Theft Auto V\mods\x64i.rpf\levels\gta5\vehiclemods"
Finish!
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
