Re: Porsche 993 GT2 Road version

This thread had come to a halt for a while, but not without a reason. Not so much because of problems, but I think Tamiya made a small mistake. The suspension (namely the springs) where ugly, compared to the rest of the kit. And although you probably won't see anything of the adjustment later on, I decided to take up that task.

So it took me a bit of time to search for the right tube and wire, to recreate the suspension coils. I like the selfmade one (top left) better than the original.


In the top right the front suspenion is shown (unfortunately a bit out of focus). Here you can still see that I've cut away the old spring and replaced it with a piece of styrene tubing. The new coil is already awaiting assembly.

Let's hope this will get me back on track real soon.
