The 1:1 is basically a Civic Sport Hybrid with a (very) pretty coupe body. Not much under there worth seeing.

Actually it's closer to a Civic Type R with the Hybrid's drivetrain. The entire front suspension, with its trick anti-torque steer geometry is lifted from the Type R. I'm reviewing the Integra Type S with these bits in two weeks, looking forward to trying this out in the twisties!

Here's the tamiya model magazine article which alerted me to this kit

This is getting there now.  Now while I wait on some stuff drying I need to make an observation regarding this kit for anyone building it. The front and rear light lenses are a nightmare to paint they have a multitude of tiny masking stickers and are a challenge but I think the end result will be worth it
