Great Job Looks awesome!!

Cheers, The Engines from a Tamiya Toyota Supra & the Turbos are Hobby Design, exhaust & intake are scratchbuilt

Looks great Nice work!!!

Cheers Everyone, Yeah the cambers not usually my thing, but felt it worked better than being straight for the style I was going for. The Tires are molded on an angle, I think the wheels in the kit are too (i didnt use them)

Hey Guys I started on this one 2 years ago, then run into some issues & shelved it. Until a few months ago, a mate was selling a Toyota supra rebuilder cheap so snapped it up for the engine. FYI not a simple swap, it took hours to get the 2JZ ("2JZ, no S#!t") to fit right inside the 86s tiny engine bay. Picked up some increible Hobby Design turbos & decided to go all out! Wanted a bit of a "Show Pony" so its done up like a SEMA car Aoshima Toyota 86 Rocket Bunny (red version) Painted Zero Paints - Lamborghini 40th Anniversary Verde Artemis 2pt pearl (photos do not do this colour justice) & Ferrari Nero Daytona Body Mods: filled handles, TRD Supra style bonnet, 81 Rocket Bunny Side skirts (these looked WAY better than Aoshimas) Wheels are Hobby Design ADV.1 19" with Aoshima 19" VIP Tires Engine from Tamiya Supra, Turbos from Hobby Design, Brakes are Hobby Design 6pot Brembos. Pretty happy with how it came out, let me know what you think. Cheers Ash

Its a different look without the fender "bridge" things, but I quite like it! & the Colour thats nice!!! Great Job!!

Looking good! Loving the seat colour! What are you painting the body?

Great work! Cant wait to see more!

Great Thread! This year I decided to finish some of my stalled projects, as of end of March I'd completed 3 news builds... but so far Ive managed to finish 3 stalled projects, Toyota 86 Rocket Bunny, Ford GT90 & Tamiya Mini. Still many many to go... Heres the latest one ive just pulled out to finish off. Tamiya F50 - painted about 8yrs ago

Oh Man thats awesome!!! Love the car & figure looks amazing! Great Job!!!

Hey Guys This was just for fun, nice Tamiya kit, but way too simplified! Wheels dont steer, limited interior detail etc. But was a quick & easy build. (after the brake fluid bath anyway...) Colour is Zero Paints Aston Martin Morning Frost Pearl white, came as a 30ml ground coat of solid white + a 30ml milky white pearl layer. Love the colour came out really nice! Swapped the wheels for C1 Rotiform 18" wheels & tires, great great wheels to use!!! Designed up some custom decals just for fun Cheers for looking Ash Did a Martini pattern on the seats but forgot to get a good photo before I closed her up... Ash

Nice work! From what you had to now, looks amazing! Did you manage to solve the issue with the nail polish?
