  1. Thank you, the 3 rotor came from Shapeways.
  2. Thank you Erik, as a model builder this is probably the biggest compliment you can achieve.
  3. Built this with the want of creating the cleanest example of a Mitsubishi Eclipse that I could possibly build. Resin wheels, steel rotors, solder intercooler piping, resin turbo, custom airbrushed graphics by me.
  4. This was a month and a half build for a contest. I have several pictures of the build progress on the body which was very very extensive. I'll post up pics of the 1:1 for comparison. Enjoy!
  5. Just completed a great trade with 440 Dakota. Will gladly trade with him again. Great guy to deal with!
  6. Yet another great trade with Rusty92. Will gladly trade with him again and again.
  7. ??......wow
  8. Yes yes yes.....and a resounding h_ll yes!
  9. I'll be watching this.....I have the 1/16 scale Fujimi enthusiast version sitting in the stash

      Hi Ken,  Glad you like them, you are welcome.

  11. Completed a trade with Scott8950. Scott is a great guy to trade with and sent his side of the trade first being that he was a new guy. Would not hesitate to trade with him again. Stand up guy for sure.
  12. Just completed my trade with Rusty92. Great trader, awesome deal, and fast shipping. Would trade with him again anytime
  13. Thanks bud! See ya Saturday
  14. Thanks fellas, got the wheels centers painted silver to dumb down the bling and put my machined washers for rotors with brembo calipers painted gold. Stance will be slightly lower but hey, its sitting on the suspension....finally.
  15. Thank you yet again guys.... The absolutely beautiful Aoshima wheels came today...they are magnificent, the tires that came with them are not. The set of wheels came with stanced out rubberbands that are equal to putting a 205 width tire on a 8.5 inch width rim. Sidewall is around a 20 series height. Fortunately though I had a set of tires in the parts box that will save the day.
  16. Where I am at today....the chassis fitment. I will have to section the interior tub heightwise 3 mm. Should be easy, cut out the floor and sand walls with beltsander and re-attach floor. Pictures show modified exhaust and chassis pan....both were lengthened by 10 mm just like the original body.
  17. Thank you Tom. I appreciate your support, and you are right....almost everything has a use.
  18. Thanks my friend ?
  19. Have decided to use a different wheel/tire combo than the wire wheels of the reference photos. Mostly because the only wires I can find are from Donk kits. Will be using 19 inch Weds LXZ Kranze wheels from Aoshima.
  20. Ah the backend, taillights were sourced from the parts box, aluminum tubing cut and fit for the round lights, and the center piece was made from that same Nascar donor body, lots of sanding and fitting on that piece. The lower rear splitter was donated from a Carrera GT builtup I bought for $3. Cut and fit it to the car and bam a little more sanding and filling back there...oh and the red inserts for the aluminum tubing...check.
  21. The convertible boot cover was made using a waterfall from a c6 Corvette. Trimmed it up and sanded it to fit the interior. Vents in the hood are individually laid strips of styrene sanded to fit widthwise.
