i think ill have to put my dvd in and slo-mo the end now.

you mean a dodge challenger right?

so this past month has been very stressful. we were forced to move and it was not enjoyable. previous house (we rented) went under foreclosure and then public auction. so here is a little update on this car. as you can see I'm using diffent intake and valve covers then the kit supplies.... i accidentally put the parts in a little thinner after chroming to get the clear cote off and the parts melted. and i was furious. if anyone has an intake alternator, carbs, and valve covers there not using let me know

this is the most recent release. the "special edition"

yea I'm going with a rusted/ neglected look and never have done any of this lol. and that was only like 10 mins in bleach

this was my first time de-chroming parts and i think they came out pretty well. i want to really detail this car. any suggestions? washes?

these cars are gorgeous wingless. i own a 1:1 mk3 supra and i removed my wing for that reason. the lines of the car are perfect

so I'm finally building a car to replicate mine. well kinda. since i own a hatch and there is only coupe's available right now ill have to settle for this shell right now. this isn't a direct nose swap. i had to cut the front bumper down the middle to shorten it up. and it was molded very badly so it needs a lot of filler. and since i had it in half i trimmed out the grill which will need filler lol heres first mock ups of the shell right now. and a 1:1 of my car

this looks amazing! my 1:1 1980 hatch came with the vinyl interior. it was horrible! especially since it was tan vinyl.

thanks guys!!!

hey guys i just got a kit off ebay for 7 shipped to my door. but it didn't come with pins to put the wheels on. what were they made out of? metal? and does anyone have any they are willing to part with??

i have a few ae86's I'm building and i love how well the kits are made

love this build! its had me thinking all day since i want to build a model of my personal 1:1 fox but with a 1980 front end

Man, your lucky your wife doesn't care about you doing illicit things in your car. I have a twin turbo supra and my fiance HATES when I find some people on the street when she's in the car.

a little more progress

heres a little more.

I follow him and Ryan tuerck through formula d. I love there cars

so as there are a few on this site. I'm making this different and putting a boosted 4ag under the hood

I'm thinking about buying one and doing a ratty one or making it a wagon

i wonder what your building....

THE kit I've been dying to buy and I've finally found one!!!

look into replacing timing belts. those suck!

exactly my point. but through my eyes since i can fix cars i want to own and maintain a car thats easy to maintain. idc if the parts are expensive because thats what i use anyway. brand new from the dealer. i don't trust auto zone,advance,car quest or whoever else there is to make good parts because I've gotten BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH parts from them all. i love the technology is my supra. to me its still advanced for its age. and it can keep up with a lot of modern cars

I'm a tech as a profession so I've seen all makes and models and touched a lot of cars. But there's a reason I daily drive a 1990 Toyota supra. I am partial to my imports but I was only driven to that side because of how crappy the "American" cars are built. Half aren't even built in the us. If you want to support American buy a Japanese car. Toyotas, nissans, and Hondas are mostly made here in the us. Excluding a few models from each company (frs, gtr's, nsx etc. because those are flagship models. Doing most maintence items like oil changes now really suck on modern cars. Nothing is easy to fix and there's a computer for everything!

thank you!
