Keef Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Initial engine mock-up. I feel like it needs to be raised up a little bit but that shouldn’t be a problem. Also need to move radiator forward a tad and raise it up as well as fill in the front area and build a radiator cradle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
53gmc Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Got the hot side of my remote turbo setup almost complete.the wastegate "screamer" pipe exits into factory passenger tailpipe so i can still run duals. I painted the suspension components to match a "maximum motorsports" suspension package. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
53gmc Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Piping and chassis are now complete. Intake side is tig wire and the boots are shrink wrap. Made it so i could use the stock hood if i wanted to 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beans Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Hooray. Rear suspension is now a thing. Dropped and broken into pieces twice but it's pretty much done now. Now on to the front. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldcarfan Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I've started a WIP thread for my entry, not much action yet, but here's hoping I'll have something to show soon! Apparently, when I bought some parts bags a few years ago at a model show, there were some of the Expedition police parts from one of these kits mixed in. I don't know if I'll find a use, but the mesh interior guards might be a good idea for keeping stuff in place at high speeds. At least that's my theory. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
53gmc Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Opened the trunk, im gonna move the battery and add a fuel cell for additional range 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you going to hinge it the standard way (with the bent wire)? I have been trying to come up with a plan for hinges. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Brian Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I've got the interior almost finished and most of the chassis parts are painted and ready to go once the exhaust is on. There's a bit of a peek at the body color too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim08 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I really like that color. Here's the glue bomb I'm using for the Gremlin. Pretty colorful to say the least. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Rabbit Posted January 21 Author Share Posted January 21 I've finally begun my RX3 while I wait to complete my current build of Aoshima's Huracan. The RX3 kit is a curbside with not many parts, in particular, chassis parts. So, I'm using this build as an opportunity to better my 3D modeling and printing skills. The picture below is a 3D model of the RS Watanabe R-Type that I'm currently working on. It's nearly complete with some additional detail/adjustments to be made and, of course, the tire needs modeling as well. The size is 16x8. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For ease of detailing, and flexibility on male/female fitment, could you do the studs/lugs as separate pieces like on the Gottis I got for my CBR project? There's a set of four for each option.

tooltime-fan Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Continued on puting the Porsche Goodies into the interior. Dash nearly completed and steering wheel mated with the original colume. Engine was a bit less easy. As either the new Revell and the fujimi one are 1:24, the are to high and keep peeking out of the engine compartement. Luckily I have a 914 one I wanted to put into my Cody Special but now I will put it in here as it as the most less height. Might detail it up a bit but it is pretty much hidden in there Also I got the thing down to the ground a reasonable bit. See the difference standing it next to my Stock height gluebomb: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim08 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) Sat that beautiful engine in to see what I got before I tear it apart. Gonna have to lower that cross member a bit so I can get the stock hood to fit, I want to make it look stock as possible not to attract attention Edited January 22 by Tim08 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's classic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beans Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Tried to add detail to the underside of the trunk lid, and add trunk hinges. Turned into a mess so I undid it all. Tried to drill out the gauge faces on the dash. Was off on one so one is lower than the rest. Luckily had another dash that will work. Overall it was a 1 step forward 4 step back couple of days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunajammer Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Wired my GTX engine tonight. My all time least favorite part of modeling. If I can get past that then everything gets easier. Pic updates coming soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattilacken Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I will be Playing this year. I have a Porsche Turbo (930) that i am gona build for a friend of mine that turns 40 in april. Will be curbside since the kit is that version, but i have an engine printed to go on the side if i have the time. Updated tires and wheels due to missing parts and i might throw in some updated brakes. Interior will be mostly stock exept for seats that will be the electric adjustable ones and steering wheel will be an other since the original one is lost over time. Post a picture of the kit later but here is a super low res pic of som of the parts. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
