508boricua Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 This is an Aoshima kit. It's actually the D1 Kazama car. I made custom front flares to go with the rears that came with the kit. I custom made the wheels by adding lips to them and I built a 6 point cage for it. I also added a datalog gauge cluster, extended shifter and e brake .hope you guys like it.
MikeyB08 Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 I love it! Always been a sucker for the S-14's. Color is spot on as well as the wheels. Would love to see/hear how you made the lips for the wheels.

nhra1625 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Reminds me of this s15 at last local drift event last weekend. I love your build! Can't wait til I get my 180sx and build it to go with my rx7 haha
Nacho Z Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 I've looked at this one several times now and I like it more each time I see it. Very nice Delfin!

Zarana-X Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) That came out beautiful! I like these cars, but I'm no expert. I'm confused about the whole Q/K/S13/S14/S15/240SX/Sileighty... Edited April 5, 2013 by Zarana-X
Dwreck23 Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Great build. Can I ask about the carbon fiber hood? Is that a sticker/decal?
Shelby 427 1965 Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 The whole drift scene ain't my cup of tea but you've done a great job on this kit. Well done!
508boricua Posted April 8, 2013 Author Posted April 8, 2013 Great build. Can I ask about the carbon fiber hood? Is that a sticker/decal?Yeah, that's a transfer decal. You can find it online. About $8 to $10 a sheet. One sheet does about 4to5 hoods. Of course you can do any part of the car. Fenders look cool in this stuff.

508boricua Posted April 8, 2013 Author Posted April 8, 2013 That came out beautiful! I like these cars, but I'm no expert. I'm confused about the whole Q/K/S13/S14/S15/240SX/Sileighty... Q naturally aspirated and k turbo slight difference in aero option packages. In the u.s they were all 240sx,s. 88 to 94, s13 . 95 to 98 s14. We never got the s15. Sileighty is when you swap the pop up lights on an 180sx s13 hatch and replace it with the Silvia grill and head lights. Sil/eighty. Hope this helps.
