I am trying to make a model of what my friends car will soon be like. So... I need to find some good IS300/ altezza kits. And if any of them have it, I would like engine detail. Oh, and I think he will be getting something like the toyota racing team body kit.. or something like that. (i forget what its called)

And then I need to find Advan model 5 rims. in 18". I have seen people with them, but I cant seem to find them on HLJ.com.

And yea, I want to order through HLJ so if you could post links from there that would be great

Thanks

So, did they stop producing the rims?

If so, does anyone in north america have some they want to sell??

And are all altezza kits curbside? cuz I dont wanna spend $50 on a fuckin engine. Damn. :screwy:


Oh, and it is the Toyota Team Europe front bumper, and TRD sides that I will need.

Here is what the bumper looks like. I think I could probably make it. It couldnt be that hard.

Your pic dosen't work, but here the link to it: http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=502/32653lexus-is200-front-bumper.jpg
The bodykit dosen't look too complicated. It has a nice, clean look to it too!

Here's a paper Altezza! :D Paper Altezza (http://papermodels.at.infoseek.co.jp/altezza/AlteVer100.pdf)

I don't recall any Altezza kits with engines, so I think you're out of luck there.

As for the AVS Model 5, according to HLJ, they're out of production. I have set not marked for any future project I can part with (I'm in Texas). PM me.

Hono, that's a cool paper model. Might have to give it a try while I'm bored at work.

Hey malsheem, thanks... PM sent.

And, my friend said that this one has the TRD sides and rear, which is what I need, I will just make the front bumper myself.

Hey hash_man, both kits come with the same front bumper, Side skirts (already molded on the body), and rear bumper. The only difference is the first kit comes with a different grill, and front chin spoiler. Both of the style are not TRD style.

So your saying that neither of those have the TRD sides or rear? I dont want the TRD front.

So if not, which kit will I have to buy to get the trd sides and rear, and hopefully a fairly stock looking front so it makes it easier to make the front bumper like the TTE front bumper.

Ya i know that would be most accurate to us version, but wouldnt the fujimi kits come with a LHD dash and a RHD dash?

Cuz I want one with the TRD sides and rear. and then I can make the front bunper I want.

not sure if i understand corectly, but the IS300 on modelexpress have left and right hand dash.

Japan Altezza dont have both (or very few of them did)

I'm curently make my 3rd Altezza/IS300.. I love this car :icon16:
