I thought you were building a Cavalier?:icon16:
Not a fan of the Cavaliers, but I'd like to see what you come up with.

you might think about looking into a competition resins cavalier body. It is made for a drag car. but I'm sure that it would be a lot simpler to modify that body to stock proportions. than to completely rework that integra

no money to buy the cavalier body and i already done like a good bit of modding to the integra

Not really, saw one of those the other day, it would take as much work to make it right....even in drag form it looked awfully out of proportion etc.

Good luck on that Cavalier! I'm so mad that is no Cavalier/Sunfire... Revell shold stop doing Civic (3 and a CRX this november) and do one Street Force !!
Oh! One day, I saw on eBay a 1982 Cavalier Hatchback.... ugly, you don't have an idea! Since your in Quebec (moi aussi-Montréal), maybe you saw some Cavalier in the '80 hatchback but there were Z-24...
My parents bought 1 Sunbird ('70) and 3 Cavalier ('86-'89-'93)... The last one is for sale 500$ (someone interested? It's manual! But 4-doors...)
I'll watch the progress!!

Wait a minute... this like a bit cheap: sticker for the headlights and rear lights... black windows... :screwy:
Ahh.... that's sucks... I tought it had more details like AT LEAST an interior! No engine pass but still need an interior. :loser:
Is it a 1/24 scale?
I don't want mine now...

I'm not sure, I might of seen 1/24 ones before.
Fujimi made a few of them that were intended to be motorized, so no engine details.
And it's a known fact that Fujimi like to cheap out on details.
There are tons of Cavaliers at a LHS where I'm at :lol:

Believe it or not: this Cavalier is a cop car!
GM and Toyota have alliances... Don't know where you came from but in North America, there is a truck called Pontiac Vibe (one of GM brand) and Toyota made the Matrix:

Barely identical, the Vibe is more powerfull than the Matrix!

actually, the toyota version of the vibe is the toyota bolt i think. saw it in gt4

nope, i actually owned a matrix, they are EXACTLY the same cars expet the out side. the interiors and powertrains are the same. both are based of the carolla.

Toyota relased a version of the vibe too. I know, the matrix, but they released a car(that I can't find the name of) that had the exact same body. Also, Chevy markets the Subaru Forester in some Asian counties that don't get Subarus.....

09-03-2005, 03:27 AM
hmm.. yeah i did some research on this after i posted (prob should have done it before) but thats nuts... and i always knew the vibe and matrix looked alike, but i never connected the dots... but its also like how there is the toyota corrolla and a geo lookalike... i think its the metro... watever... stupid brand mixing...
