ae86 levin 2 door

Ive almost finished this one. Just have to finish a bit on the engine and the window trim. I also may put some decals on the body. what do you guys reckon? the paint is also a bit crap, but it looks okay on my shelf, so i dont want to do it again. Also i need to paint the underside of the bonnet i think, the top has a cf decal.

oh yeah i forgot to add, the wheels and stretch tires were taken from my chiki chiki cedric. no matter how good they looked on the cedric, i love them on here too. and thanks for the comment

i want those chiki chiki racing kits :banghead:

Pure sikkness!!:sunglasse

well i got some new pictures seeing its the holidays and im bored. i dont have any really interesting ideas for pictures so theres not much new to see. i did finish my strut brace though, its not too great, but i didnt want to cf it. i still have more engine details, but i lost some of them. also i just noticed i need to paint the mirrors. also the paint is very amatuer, ill just say its a drift car http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/images/smilies/sly.gif

my engine without the extra details

Nice! Those rims fit the Levin perfectly!

Very cool outcome! :bigthumb: Is the motor pure scratchbuilt?

the motor is made up of random peices i had in my parts box. the head is from two cam covers from some v8. the block is some mercedes diecast engine. and random pulleys. not exact, but looks alright.

Looks very cool. I've actually rekindled some inspiration for my Corolla project with engine. Hopefully I'll be posting some pics within the week. Good job on your engine bay though. It's pretty accurate.

yeah it would be good to see another corolla engine. today i looked at this car again, and now i wonder whether the bumpers should be black. or some decals. what does anyone think? im kind of undecided.

engine looks hot! good job!

Here's a link to my project

Stretch walls!!!!

Looks pretty sweet man. BTW, which kit is this?

the kit is the fujimi ae86 levin 2 door. ID-61 the box says. its late model version of the 2 door levin.
*also*
i decided to decal it. the randomish decals now suit the relatively poor paint job and make it look more like a track car. also i finished the window trims including inbetween the rear window and doors.

Nice work man!!! Loving the engine!!

those wheels are toooo hott!

even though the paint isnt great it still looks nice...you did a good job on modifying it tastefully.

Sick job man, I agree the paint isnt so great but it still looks very awsome. I'm loving the rims.

This is an excellent build even though the paint didnt come out great. Props. :smokin:

thanks for the comments guys. on my shelf the paint isnt too nitcable so im still happy. i also straightened the window trims so theyre looking good now. i have a question though. does anyone know how to make the grill that semi seethrough colour? i thought the gluespots were alright but they arent. but i might just paint the grill black now.
also, ill get some pics of it placed with the rest of my cars either tonight or tomorrow.
