Tamiya 930 Turbo

Recommended Posts

Just finished this one. 

A very simple kit with very few parts, but it comes together very well. Its all molded in one piece so the masking is the make or break for this one. Painted with Mr. Surfacer 1000 > Mr. Color 124 > Tamiya TS13. I originally wanted Tamiya TS9 but it was out of stock locally so I thought this would be a close match. Its darker in ambient light, the photo lighting makes it appear slightly lighter.

Awesome clean build,  Tamiya sure get the proportions and surfaces just right on this car.  Makes it fun to build.

How many parts in this kit, is there an engine?

Less than 40 counting the tires, it's a SnapTite kit.

  Did you need to lower at all, stance looks perfect.

It was slightly lowered and wheels slightly spaced out for a more aggressive stance, while still maintaining an OEM+ look and period-correctness.

Thanks for letting me know.  Makes a big difference!
