Started a while ago, but very slow progress...
borrowed the wheels from Tamiya's PORSCHE 911 GT3 for trial.

Very smooth. I love it.

Good start :thumbsup: I like this deep blue color.

I would keep the Gt3 rims, they suit it very well. And I guess, the Italeri rims are not so accurate or 'in scale'.

Sweet job so far. She almost looks ready for crusin.

Thanks!!
True that the original wheels from ITALERI are very shitty!

I may either use these GT3 wheels or the 5-spoke of 996. Not yet decided!!

Nice Project.
Good colour-choice!
Show us a pic of the other set of rims...but the gt3 indeed fit it well

borrowing the pic from someone at internet...
this is the 996 wheel I might put onto the 993.

Nice!
How's the fit on this one?
:p

I like that colour - is there any engine detail on this one or strictly curbside?

993 is my favorite of 911:s and looks like you are doing a very good job with your model! The nachtblau (midnight blue) metallic might be the color of my choice if I ever have the finances to go shopping for a 1:1 993.

Too bad that Italeri has stopped manufacturing these kits, I'd like to get the convertible and the non-turbo 993. It would be nice if Tamiya had had the sense to produce a 993 because Italeri kits do lack something in details, especially the wheels and headlights are appalling.

I used wheels from Tamiya 996 on my 993 turbo (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=271052&highlight=993+turbo) .

MEL79, you are so right about the kit. The wheels suck and I cannot stand having them on this car, just don't match a PORSCHE.
I'm not yet done with the headlamp, perhaps will consider borrowing the parts from the GT2 kit of Tamiya.
I purposely build this piece and in this midnite blue to memorized my friend's ex. She totaled the car months ago.... :banghead:

Thanks for your comments !!

looks good as al of your models! i cant understand how you can have al those models going at the same time.

Keep your good work upp!

Looking great! I love the idea of the Turbo wheels on it.

I also didn't like Italeri's 993 wheels, so I bought Fujimi's Ruf 18 inch for my 993 kit. Ruf wheel is a common choice on the real 911, so it looks pretty good.

Nice work so far. The wheels look much better than the stock ones.
