Finding another one of those kits would be hard, as I havent seen anyone building this kit locally. Sorry about being in the wrong place, as I thought that this section would be appropriate. My apologies then.

Guys, I bought this kit some time last year (or was it 2 years ago) Pretty decent kit, for US$ 1.50 But the catch was that, this was all that was included -> And the body. Clear parts, manual, and several wheels were NOT included. I've emailed Aoshima about this, but they seemed less than helpful in this matter. Any other way I can get some help for this kit?

Still got some WIPs eft hanging, gotta settle 'em first. Thanks a million Chris !!!

Oh gosh Hey guys, hope some of you guys remember me. I've been through a lot lately, that's why I was missing from the modelling scene for quite some time. Firstly was that I was at uni, but then I dropped out. Then I got to work, till recently I decided to get back to my studies. And because I will be studying in my hometown, I will have the time to start modelling all over again. So yeah, the place has changed a lot I must say. Will get back to my cars after Chinese New Year. And yeah, Happy Chinese New Year to whoever that celebrates it. Happy New Year Guys !!

So many forums to follow.. omg.. Haha..great to see that there's such a race over at the States.. Pity there's nothing much here.. Sure, the Japan GT (JGTC), F1 etc is here, but I feel, those are just too ###### commercialized.. something like LeMons would be great here, considering the amount of beaters that needs to be cleared off the roads..

Hi guys, been quite some time (again) since I posted here. Just wanna ask you guys, what's this Le Mons race that I read in Jalopnik every now and then? Cheap version of Le Mans?

simple yet sweet r33.. love the color too

As promised, here are the better pics. I've fixed the front window and the chassis fitment.

old school beemers, me likey !!

These pics might not do my car justice, so tomorrow some better pics will follow suit.

Took me quite a while to finish this, mainly due to lousy weather here. But here it is, all done. Very happy with the results. As usual, I only used industrial paints. Hard to admit this, but I still suck at finer detailing.. ==" C&C welcomed. Oh, before I forget, the chassis fitment was horrendous, and you can see the rear wheel's placement is just so, wrong...

I know, but on the first post, it was mentioned as AutoArt..

That would be worth looking forward to. Oh wait. Is it AutoArt or RalliArt?

Sounds like a plan... I'll have a look and see. I'll be using industrial paint as usual for my cars..

mind to show me the color?

Since I'm on a 2 week+ holiday, I plan to do 3 cars at one go. I guess it won't be hard.. The first is a Chevy Fleetside. Planning to make it dark blue with a optional BBS styled rims. Others will be stock. The second is a Porsche 911 Turbo Flatnose. This one might be yellow, red, purple, black, silver or - . But I think I'll let you guys decide.. The last is a Honda Civic Type R EP3. This one will be red, with a set of Advan Racing RS rims.

Sorry for butting in like this, but the thread title just grabbed my attention.. I've seen in various magazines where some people sell some form of reflective spray coating for their numbers plate, claiming that it reflects the traffic camera's flash, thus making your car unrecognizable. Isn't that illegal as well? Come to think of it, my country (Malaysia) ain't that great either. Mods like fixed bucket seats are illegal, underglow, aftermarket HIDs/Xenons.. But since most policemen here has the habit of closing one eye, most mods pass through without any problems. Well, until they reach a police roadblock, that is.

Oh..nice.. I have a similar kit, sad part is, the clear parts and rubber wheels are missing..

haha..was just going to mention something about the number plate..as if i have seen it before...

Sweeeet scooby there !! perfect color combination

The raised wing is an optional addon if you want to the rally version. I have the same kit, but haven't started it yet. Mind to share some engine pics?

Well, can't expect much for a RM5 (circa US$ 1.50) kit. But I do have some plans up my sleeve for that Hilux. Thank god that only the clear parts and wheels were missing, not the body parts. Was thinking of using some Lego wheels to go with it..

It has been quite a while since I last visited this site, and I do miss ya'll. And since I am busy studying, my models has to be put on hold, and I have been buying diecasts models to keep myself preoccupied. Went back to my hometown last Thursday, and went to a LHS and got poisoned. Here's what I managed to buy - Fujimi 17" Volk Racing Formula S - Fujimi 17" WORK EQUIP Voggerd - Revell 1/24 Ford Mustang GTO 7/Eleven - Aoshima Toyota Hilux 4x4 Pick Up - Revell 1/24 Chevrolet Fleetside '72 - Italeri 1/35 Leopard 2 A5 Well, sad thing is, the Hilux has several wheels missing, and the clear parts were gone. The Fleetside and Mustang GTO seems complete, other than the decal issue. I just wanna ask is there any way that I might be able to salvage the Hilux and not end up purely for just spare parts? As for the Mustang GTO, my plan is to paint it all white, aka test car style, as the decals are more than 20 years old ! (kit dated back to 1987) Hope that someone might be able to help me out. Cheers, Eric

Any other comments? Where else can I improve?

Anything that has two wheels, four wheels (and maybe even more) can be added in. Feel free to PM me.
