Ambitiously Modified Evo6 - FINISHED!

After several months on hold, finally finished this project. It will be one of my entries in the up-coming IPMS competition here in the Philippines

Kit: Tamiya Evo6

Modifications:

1. Opened hood, trunk and front doors
2. Scratch-built engine and engine components
3. Scratch-built sound system and trunk details
4. P.E. seatbelts
5. Rims from JACCS Accord


Comments are welcome

Re: Ambitiously Modified Evo6 - FINISHED!

That is one of the best looking evo's I have seen. I really like those rims and tires, and the paint is just amazing. Where did you get the tires? Same place you got the rims? Where did you get the wire for the engine and what sizes did you use? It looks perfect for the scale. Beautiful job, and goodluck at IPMS!

Sweet too sweet. How did you open the doors and hood so cleanly?

Re: Ambitiously Modified Evo6 - FINISHED!

It`s really cool. Is it a converted RB26 from skyline? or you built it your self? btw, I think it would look better, if it will be lower

Very very nice. Engine looks great, so does just about everything else. I noticed the rear camber too. Everything else is so great, it'd just be nice if the rear wheels sat flat.

Re: Ambitiously Modified Evo6 - FINISHED!

omg cris. you just scared me away from joining the modified category for cars, given that i had no choice but to join there since the AP JGTCC skyline brakes i put on the Z-Tune puts it squarely in that category. hehehehe. excellent job, hope to see your car in person this weekend!

looks like i'll just stick to my sci-fi entry, the FAZZ.
