Beautifull engine !

Ok steve stop playin around and put the motor back in your car. :lol2:

:lol2: :lol2:

Holy shit......That's freakin amazing!

Steve - I'm in awe of this build - it's just too much !

:eek: :eek: :eek: *drops dead*

:worshippy:worshippy:worshippy:worshippy:worshippy :worshippy:worshippy:worshippy

omfgwtfbbqroflmaobmwthxsteve!! Thats awesome is what im trying to say. :smokin:

looks so real and the engine looks so clean :eek:.

The engine bay alone is a model in itself. I'm sure Mr. Fujimi never imagined someone would take this kit this far!

wow im so speachless right now

Steve! You are awesome! The work on the alternator and the pulleys are good! You should start making a starter motor too.. :D
Oh and.. what's next? Can't wait to see more. This thread is just jaw dropping!

Steve, you are an amazing machinist.

thanks for looking?! :screwy: thank YOU for blowing our minds, your a modeling god, that motor looks SOO real

I totally love this build up. I just spend the better part of my evening reading from page one till now. I love it.

What are your plans for the rest of the interior? are you going to build a ignition switch? Switches and nobs for the radio, climate controls??? or are you leaving it with the little bits that you have done?

i think you should actually wrap the interior, in like leather and shit

d=(o_O)=b
can i touch yer hands?

Lol... why dun you make the cams too? its never been done before on kits =P

All this and you just started machining?... :screwy:
My knowledge on machining is limited, but youv'e seemed to master it already. Its hard to imagine doing better than what has already been done here...but im sure you will prove me wrong in due time. Im sure your machined pulley set-up is laughing at the kit ones by now. Holy S**t was the first thing that came to mind. The motor is a masterpiece on its own. Please keep up the amazing job.

JeFF

this isnt modelling anymore, its just insane now














:eek: :worshippy

wow! now I dont want to build my kit:uhoh: im afraid it wont be this good. I look at my engine parts now and i just want to put them back in the box.Really good job!

I m amazed, I m very amazed!

Amazed at how you can make this mediocre piece of plastic look like a freakin' awesome car that even looks like the real deal in the smallest details...

I hope you enjoy building it as much as I enjoy seeing each update, and if you do; you're one happy fellow.

Oli

Everything on the engine is clean, and then I look at the "RB26" lettering on the timing chain cover...is that just blurry camera action, or are those painted silver?

Any progress on the metal bolt heads, rubber hose labels, etc?

looking very smooth steve. Your skill in turning small detail astound me

I guess I won't be entering anything in AFMOTY contest this year either ya bastid. Can't you go to another forum, your really making a lot of us look bad. :disappoin

The rest of the time has been spend adjusting the ride height at the front and rear, airbrushing parts up and re-roofing the garden shed :)
