COMPLETED: Garage MAK Silvia S15!

This model was a pain! Had to strip the paint 3 times. And I lost my decals due to the first paintjob. The worst problem I had was my side view mirror went down the drain, but eventually was recovered. http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/images/smilies/tongue.gif

Enjoy.

Great work.:bigthumb:Looks good without wing.

I cant see the pictures....i prefer the spoiler... because mine looks nice (in my opinion)

Great work.:bigthumb:Looks good without wing.
:iagree: Good work :thumbsup:

I like it both without and with the wing. Awesome work. It'll be clean either way you have it :iceslolan

I like it! How did you fit the intercooler?

Veyron- I dremelled the front of the chassis a bit. You have to re-check a couple of times.

I didn't dremel the center of the front of of the chassis so the intercooler wouldn't look too far back.

So you avoid dremelling about 2 centimeters in the middle and dremel the plastic to the left and right of the center.

Hard to explain but tell me if I need to explain more. :smile:

Very nice.
Good job on the exhaust weathering.
I prefer it with the wing.

Nice choice of colour. I prefer it with wing too. :smile:

Looks better wingless IMHO

But what do I know about Japanese cars :confused: :loser:

I prefer the wing, but it looks badass any way you put it!

That's weird, it looks fantastic with our without the wing. From the front is looks great and the rear it doesn't.

So, I dunno what to tell you! LOL

i'll say nice job, but i'll also say thanks alot for stealing my color idea. :rolleyes:

I cant see any of the pictures either. S13- Im sure your one of the many who are planning on making a pink s15 :sly:

Super- cool!!! :sunglasse :sunglasse :sunglasse

ChrisI agree,I was building mine with the wing,but now I will have to rethink my plans.

damn, thats nice, i especially like the intercooler and piping

Great job man! What kit was that? 1/24 scale? I agree- no wing. How do you strip the paint? I was thinking of starting a Audi Quattro....Also, how did you get the black lining around the windows? Do you airbrush your whole car? Looks great!
:biggrin:

Kit- Fujimi Garage MAK Silvia I think it's OOP at the moment.
Stripping paint - Dot 3 Brake Fluid
Black lining - Tamiya masking tape (others will do)
Paint was with Tamiya can.

BTW, take a look in the FAQ.

Looks like you need to. :smile:

Looks great, the color is very different.

I like it. And with a color like that, you need a GT wing. :grinyes:

Looks very sweet. IMO the wing needs to be smaller

Yeah, I agree with you a little.

Before I finished the model I was going to cut those clamps or whatever you call them. I was going to shorten the whatever you call them.

But, I'm too lazy. And I'm not sure if the super glue will hold up the shortened metal pieces.

Or I could've soldered if I cut it.

Well, whatever! :dunno:

looks good, except TAKE OFF THE WING!!!

very cool s15. fantastic color.

keep the GT wing it look better..
btw move the GT wing abit to rear..
it look odd if u stick it right at the middle. just my Op :)

No Take It Off!!!

Great work and a spectacular color, :bigthumb:
only the panellines should be a little lighter IMO. :sorry:
