here is my lastest project. It's a Tamiya 350Z with a slicly modified SAS transkit (mainly the front bumber) Wing are from SAS too.

It's not quite the result I wanted, I got very hard time with the window fitment (anyone have the same problem ?)

Anyway comments are welcome.
Next project is a Lexus IS300 and Mercedes CLK-GTR... if I can get around the bad window fitment of the 350Z, I will probably try to make a new one convertible.

oh, and my Dad is working on his Subaru WRC.. so far it look insane.. It's hevyly modified and not a rally car anymore.. pics soon

I love the stock rims from the Z, they look awesome! Anyways did you paint the seats "gloss" red, or is it just me?

Good Job!

Nice!

If you don't have access to flat paints but do have access to Tamiya X-21 Flat Base ,you can just mix flat base with gloss red to make flat red. :)

I know.. but Imagine, I can'T even find a damn primer here.. so forget the flat base :D

The day I will order from japan, It will cost a shit load of money :D

Agreed! Looks nice, it looks much better with a stock rear bumper, the C-west kit comes witha rear bumper does'nt it?

Great job! Very racer-ish

You know, i think this might be the real C-West Z. I don't know what happened to that bodykit in the preproduction sketch upon which i based my transkit? There are some similarities here so perhaps this is what it evolved into????
