Sprint S15

this project is just an experiment, so i can learn new methods of scratchbuilding an stuff, so im not worried that some things aren't perfect, next time i'll know what to look for an stuff.

a little history on the model first, i bought this model in singapore in december from hobby point i believe, it strted life as a aoshima kei office S15, then i started working giving it an RB20DET, with an evo intercooler an other goodies, that then went dead

i decided the other day to ressurect it, i thought wide arches would be good, and for the race look maybe lower it a bit, but i dont like cars lowered with the wheels tucked under the arches, so i would have to lower the arches themselves.

here's a few sneak pics, more soon

Great start. Nice to see you brought this one back from the dead.

it seems that you have a clear picture in your mind!
a real cool S15!

Sweet ass widebody! Good luck with it!

in scale i think this widebody would add like a foot on eather side. looks good.

its 14.4cm extra each side (approx 6 inches) making the car 28.8cm wider that standard, the car would be 198cm wide, nearly 6 foot !

Sweeeeeet! Cant wait to see more progress.

Nice Start... I love this car!!

Nice track car you have there! :sunglasse
Are you going to have to add wheel spacers or modifiy the suspension to fit the wheels?

Nice project! Good Luck!

Aww, that bodykit is awesome !

Can you say WIIIIDE?
Looking good so far. Keep it up.
Later, Troy. :aus:

no modified suspension with spacers, im using part of the front end of a Nissan R390, perfect width with TE-37 from a R34 GTR pennzoil, brakes from the R34 an a scratchbuild SR20DET.

Noooo...WTF happened to the pics? They disappeared. :crying:

Thought you said you were going to build an RB20DET?
Why not just build an SR22DET? :iceslolan

Ahhhh...all better. Now make some more progress. :)

really cool project, sounds crazy, and looks awesome

That is one pimp ass wide bodykit man totally awesome.

yay i can see the pics now! haha that thing is so freaking wide. good job on this build so far!

it used to have a RB20DET, but thats gone for a new engine, SR20DET.

Awesome! Looks sick man! I did a similar thing on a Shelby Series 1 for the same reason.. to learn how to schratch build. have a look at www.polarcirclecars.tk . Keep it up!
