The Engine has arrived!!!

All I can say is WOW!!!!
Better than I thought! Not sure how to do the car I will put it in though!

Do I do a modded one or another stocker????
seems a shame to change any of the parts when they are so good!
I'll post a scan of the instructions when I get back in later!

I have a few tips for finishing it off, but overall, a great kit!

Problem is, I have no where to put it! really need that display cabinet to arrive damn soon!

Did you order one? I need one bad, too. My cats like to knock things off my desk, so I'm always re-gluing side mirrors back on. And last night, I was dusting my MR2 with a cotton swab, and the spoiler poped off! I guess the bond was weak, because it was glued on top of the body's paint. Damnit!

The front lights need a bit of work, they are slightly too large for the recess, and then given an edge in matt black (I use a Tamiya paint pen)

I tried painting the red on the door panels first, then masking the reed to do the black, but this was a pain to mask, so ended up spraying the red over black with a light grey as a primer. this was successful with about 5 coats!

Other than that the kit goes together perfectly! Spend some time on the front suspension, it needs to sit lower than the front, so all mount holes need to be clear!

Looks great, Dan! Got any shots of her underside?

Did you darken the panel lines? I can't tell from the pics...

I gotta start makning my own license plates, but American plates are so complex!
