  1. Very nice cool pics too
  2. I been looking at the Tamiya polishing compounds. There are 3 types, Coarse, Fine and Finish. Coarse and Fine are the same price but Finish is more than double the other two. I wanted to know what the difference is between them. All I know is how fine the compound is. Is it worth paying the extra?
  3. Just wanted to no if anyone's used this kits and weather they are any good?
  4. Depending what type of alloys I have on the model wouldn't I be able to see that the alloy is not central with the disc or do u mean cut behind the disc?
  5. Awesome I'm in a cross between getting this or an audi r8 as my next project
  6. I've just bought the golf mk1 and mk3 by fujimi now just to find the mk4!!!

  8. I'm new to this and have only made one kit the golf mk2 by revell I want to go down the vw route and was wanting to start modifying them I've found you can buy little extras but wasn't sure about suspension do u need to alter the standard one by cutting it down and altering other parts or is there kits you can buy? I havnt seen any on my searches
  9. Spot on you've been a great help thanks hopfully ill be able to find the other mods
  10. Great thanks the golf that I'm looking at hasn't got the same engine as mine but I've seen a new beetle with the tdi in what's the chances I'd be able to swap engines? Both are tamiya for future reference would the brands make a difference if I was to swap parts I'm hoping I can buy the engine seperate but will need to look into it more this is my last option since I want the golf to be a perfect replica
  11. Yes I found that out already with the golf I throw the airiel away lol lucky it wasn't something more important. I noticed they do a golf in the fujimi kit and there's quiet a price differance is this due to the tamiya kit being a lot more detailed? Also while we're on the topic got any advice for which brands I should keep away for
  12. Thanks I will give them ago and thanks for the welcome magnum
  13. 1:24 is a small as I want to go thanks for all the link you've been more help than u think there's a golf mk4 on there for sale which is top of my list since I own one I've been looking all over for it, what are the tamiya kits like?
  14. Hi I'm new to the model car world I have always been interested in it but just never had the time I went out and bought my first car the other day (golf mk2 revell) I manage to complete this the other night and have decided I want to carry on making them my main interest is with vw's and audi, 1:24 scale I want to start modifying them. I have read throw a couple of threads about where to buy parts but i have found they are mainly for American cars and race cars is there anyone else interested more in the dub scene?? And where can I buy parts?? Also I have only been able to manage to find golf mk2 a mk5 and a camper van in this area so if you no of any website where I can get a wider range that would be great
