Mattilacken Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 So my Porsche got to the finish line in time for my friend’s 40th birthday tomorrow. It’s a Fujimi curbside kit modified with a Black Box resin engine that I made a custom turbo setup for based on his setup. I modified the floor pan to look more oem with a spare Tamiya GT2 kit I had, where the transmission also was sourced from. 3d printed wheels, tires and brakes. Interior is basic but with Tamiya buckets, arm rests(which the curbside lacs) from a Tamiya BMW. I also flocked the floor and back seat to resemble the 1:1 better. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might get some better pics with the pair later when he brings it out of storage for summer, he has a good camera as well. his 1:1 is a also a red 911 but a 997, but he always wanted a 1984 911. Hence the gift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ea0863 Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Fantastic build! And a particularly nice job on painting trim work - I know how tough that is on a model like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Emre! There is some masking required! Most interesting was the bumper rubber seal on the top which had to be eyeballed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
