zak78 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) This Tamiya is 930 is my "reward WIP;" it's what I allow myself to work on only after I've made progress on more difficult models. As I'd done a "fat-tires" Tamiya 911 earlier last year, this was to be its opposite; lower than low, and a little over-the-top with 90s-style accessories. Other stuff: Ruf-style rain-gutters delete, filled mirror holes, Scale Production ducktail, SP Singer projector headlights. --Silly-wide 18" aluminum wheel barrels by Mike Newport --959 interior tub --934 motor (really just a plate) and header/ turbo transplant, complete with factory bonkers exhaust (aluminum tubes added) Still need a LOT. This is maybe 85-90% if that. Edited January 19, 2017 by zak78 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamsuperdan Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Oooh, I like the direction of this one. Has a bit of a Rauh Welt vibe to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draggon Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Excellent, I love it. Stance and "silly-wide" wheels look great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zak78 Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 This is soooo cool. I love the exhaust and the projector lights. Awesome!Thanks! I leaned a little too hard on the clear-blue and came out with lights that look a little ricey, but they're part of it now. Oooh, I like the direction of this one. Has a bit of a Rauh Welt vibe to it.Thanks! I'm guessing it's because those wheels are 18s, which are a little big for a 930. I'm considering replacing them with 17" Fifteen52 Outlaws and saving those (Aoshima Koenigs, made in 1:1 by O.Z.) for an actual RWB build.Stunning!Thanks! Excellent, I love it. Stance and "silly-wide" wheels look great!Thanks! It's one of those embarrassing metal-axles kits, so I figured I may as well make the most of it lol.

zak78 Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) I just noticed, the interior pics aren't showing up. That's odd; here they are. I'll reup all pics to cloud hosting manana. Right now I'm stuck at work, and with a firewall that blocks access to them. I need to do something more interesting with the package shelf, and possible add a half-cage with seatbelts. The 959 seats have been reworked a bit to set at a different angle. I know the steering wheel would be more "tasteful" with a silver or black center. That's why it's blue . Intentionally out of my comfort zone. Edited January 19, 2017 by zak78 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
