Last night i was rushing to finish this one for NNL East. Turns out i had to leave it at home with the hood in the dehydrator since it was still not hard enough to polish:( Well I guess i'll take it to next year's show:) Wheels were painted with Honda Artic Silver, Hood Painted BLACK (Had no CF decal:() The window rubbers had to be painted freehand since it was almost impossible to mask them since they were almost invisible. The colour on the car is Alpine Green Pearl by Dupli Color. The Muffler and rear wing are from the Fujimi Muffler Set and GTW-Wing Set. Thats about it;) I like how it came out this time wayy better than how it looked previously;)

And here are more pictures:) The car was made curbside, engine will never see daylight anymore:( Had to chop up the wheel wells also to fit these massive 19inch wheels!

I'm going to have to agree with some of the other guys I think it looks better green and with the bigger 19''s. Awsome job with the rebuild.

Yea I was thinking of taking it out and having it there just in case another project comes up that required this engine, but then i realized that this motor was a Nissan motor not a Honduh MOTO-R. :)

Is that the same green as on your Civic? I really dig that color, man, it just looks awesome. I'm gonna have to copy you before long. Great look on that GT-R.

Yup, it was the same green. I might just strip the Civic and paint it some other color.
Wow, That looks awesome, Joeham. The green looks much better than the red. :sunglasse Did this kit come with a roll-cage?
Yup, it also came with two options for seats (racing/stock) and two options for steering wheel (racing/stock). Really good kit for 15 dollars:)
