Re: Fujimi Ferrari 365 GTS4

I've started with engine:



and started to modify it,





using these small elements



my plan is to replace original plastic injectors







a little bit better, but the height is too high and the injectors are not in line...
too bad, I will modify it...

Re: Fujimi Ferrari 365 GTS4

As said before, I modified the injector system, sorry I did not take picture during the work in progress



Looks a little bit better, but everything is still not in line



So again, I modified it, with evergreen parts:



to make it always at the same distance



starting to look better, at least, the space between each injectors will be exactly the same now





a fast mock up





looks better no ?

Re: Fujimi Ferrari 365 GTS4

Where did u find minimeca espanola parts? I knew they are out of business since long time. They made excellent metal parts. Maybe is still possible to find theme somewhere

Re: Fujimi Ferrari 365 GTS4

Hello,

Thanks for the comments, I found the minimeca in France, a very good retailing store.

I bought it few years ago but it seems they still have some in stock, here is the link if you are interested:
