lghtngyello03 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Finally able to post this one under glass. Thank you for all the comments to you guys that were following this build. Definitely going to enter this one into the Hope it Don't Snow Show in January. Kit is a Tamiya MKIV Supra, engine is a Model Meister single turbo setup. Wheels are from eightyone81.com and are CCW Classics. Paint is from Scalefinishes and is a Toyota Royal Sapphire Blue Pearl with Scalefinishes 2k clear. My first time simulating any type of lines/hoses so go easy on me, lol. Thanks for looking and enjoy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike C Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Looks great! Too bad Toyota doesn't make cars like that any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lghtngyello03 Posted August 29, 2016 Author Share Posted August 29, 2016 Looks great! Too bad Toyota doesn't make cars like that any more.Thanks Michael. I agree, Toyota shouldn't have stopped this car. There has been rumor for a while about it coming back, but it will probably be like the NSX if it did come back.....not look anything at all like it used to.

lghtngyello03 Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) REALLY nice build all-the-way-round!! Q: did you refinish the wheels? Thanks man! Yes I did have to paint them, the wheels come as a 2-piece and are raw. So I had to fab up some pins to mount them, as well as the depth to glue the faces for my offset. They are finished using Alclad II Chrome over a Tamiya Gloss Black base. Feel free to check the build thread out, it shows the wheels during build process. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/111225-tamiya-mk-iv-supra-single-turbo-under-glass-8-27-16/ That is nice Thanks Jonathan!
