Found on AF ( http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=176508&highlight=veilside ) ... I love this car!

:iagree:

i dunno. I think it should be composed of domestic, and import, so maybe something like a Camaro or Mustang with a turbo and import influence, or do up an Integra, or Skyline using muscle car colors, and paint schemes, like hugger orange with flat black spoiler and hood.

how bout a 350z like the 1:1 scale af project car guys

to reflect all the modeling here, it should be a skyline on gold spokes and white walls with body kit and spoiler. Then, a huge blown hemi stickin out of the hood.

just kidding, the Z idea is cool

that would be pretty kool it would have o have a blown big block shevy in it though

The way I'd go about this:

Just have everyone vote on what they'd like to see in certain parts of the kit.

1. List the models you're interested in building

2. After one has been decided, list options to do to different parts of teh car; for example:

1. How should I do the hood?
a. Keep it stock
b carbon fiber
c. add a scoop
d. lose the hood!

2. What color should the interior be painted?
a. black with red accents
b. red with yellow accents
c. tan with brown accents

3. Wheels?
a. chrome spinners
b. black Watanabe 15's
c.

Or something like that. You may end up with a green Honda NSX with gold wheels, a blue and orange interior, and a Hemi, but... :D

I vote for that one ^^

Honestly, here's my feeling.

00 r34 vspec II (most built car)
lose the hood
ducktail, or a real low clean spolier
17's are fine, but not stock, not chrome
disc brakes
awd platform
10pt rollcage
detailed engine bay
cut the engine base leaving the oil pan, and drop a supercharged 454 chevy in it. (in fact, the one from the revell monogram 70 3 n' 1 chevelle will be perfect)
up to date seats and belts, lose the rear seat
strut bar in rear (since one wont fit in front for obvious reasons)
kinda low, but not tucking or 4x4ing
for paint, hugger orange or ford blue with a flat black spoiler

ok everyone an right down their ideas for it then ill have a poll and list all of you guys ideas and at the end of next week ( today is march 17 ) ill see witch ever one has the highest votes so get those ideas in people

:iamwithst

This would both please and p*ss off everyone at the same time, plus give Chris at SAS the cash to do all his new projects :lol2:

I'll donate a set of 19" gold Daytons just to see it come to life! :lol::lol:

so tonio your all for the lowriding hotrodded skyline

I might make my idea come to life, probably not tho.

who is building this? whats this about cash? my ideas----
i have no idea. so many choices. that NSX would be tight. maybe a rx7.......i dunno. i will think more!

Its a good idea but there are too many conflicting interests to make a nice model from this. You'd probably be best off doing a build up of the AF 350Z, I personally am not terribly excited about a type of car I do not have interest for.
Seriously, use your minds, a blown Chevy big block mid mounted sideways, in a Honda NSX rolling wire wheels would not be good at all. If you build AF cars it would be better to do 1 model for each area of interest on here, not combine them all.

youve got a point

You could make a Poll to ask everybody which car represent the most AF (AF 1:1 350Z, Skyline, custom, etc...), but I'm afraid the result would be a Nissan... :lol:
The Skyline gtr is quite representative of what AF is: a car that is sold mostly in Japan, but that everyone in the world can dream of, even if it looked a little bit strange for many at the begining... A kind of symbol of open-minding...
But it has been made here so many times...

Not everyone in japan dreams of a skyline, they're like riced out civics over hear, around every damn corner practically.

Purpura, what you think of my idea? I have an r34 I was gona use for the do-luck t-kit, but if anyone shows some interest in it, i might do it.

how bout a 350z like the 1:1 scale af project car guys

I agree a 1:24 scale vertion of the 1:1 AF project 350z

I just think it sounds too complicated to do it to how everyone would like, you just cannot combine so many different types of cars into one, it's like putting a GT wing and a fartcan on to a 1955 Chevy Corvette, demoralising if anything else.
I do think that if you want to build a AF model project that the 350Z would be your best bet, after all it is what the AF car is now and the 350Z is a great car, I think it is the best Japanese car around today. Take it to Igor, see what he thinks about the modelling forum contributing with a replica of the real AF car.

Just my opinions.

how can i take it to igor and whos he

PM him, he is the main man for AF, he owns the damn place! You can get his PM link in any of the Announcement threads on any forum.
