S13 345 Tuning **FINISHED PICS**

Looks like I made it right on time. Here are the pics, as promised. I had more but some of them didn't turn out very good. Hope you like it.
Before anyone asks, the bodykit came with the kit itself, it was molded in styrene plastic. I will be scratchbuilding the bodykit for my next S13 though.

Nice Lookin model man.... I really like how it looks except I wouldnt have made the wheels blue but it looks SiCK!! (in a good way... lol)

Is it possible for you to post pics of the interior? or did you glue the body on?:confused:

Wow, that's a pretty crazy looking body kit. Pardon my ignorance, but who makes the model? And those wheels? Did those come with the car? Crazy lip action!

awesome awesome awesome

i happen to like the blue wheels...that lip is crazy, its so deep you could eat off of it

but one thing...in the front.. is the turn signal on the left hand side supposed to look like that.. it looks like the paint was chipped..maybe im wrong

looks freakin nice! that body kit sure is beefy. what kinda body kit d'ya plan on makin for your next project? something like that or more subtle? anyways, keep up the fine work.

That is one *HOT* Silvia

So are you buying the Fujumi Initial D one?

oh, and where would i be able to find one? Thanks!

man that thing is just wicked i think ill get working on my CRX again after seeing your results

The silvia is great..

but i don't like the spoiler personally though... :x

That's one evil looking silvia! I like

i love everything on it.and nice to see somebody building my favorite initial d car...:)

:eek: ...you could use it as a snow plough !!!!!...darn thats low :cool:

Real agressive looking kit on this model.
Looks like a great job from the pics.
The back wheels are a bit to "deep dished" for me though, but the size looks awesome !!:D :D

What a fantastic looking model! You have done a great job but i would also say that im not a fan of the blue inserts on the wheels, IMO gunmetal would work better!

Thanks for the comments guys, I really appreciate it :flash:

To answer some questions:
Hash man - Here, from my progress thread, is a pic of the interior:
http://mywebpages.comcast.net/kaiyao1/s13/s13interior.jpg

howiedoit - It's an Out-of-Print ( :( ) Fujimi model, and yes the wheels came with it, I found it at my hobby shop sitting with all the Hasegawa models.

SilverLotus - Hrm, I think that's just a bad reflection from the light...took a look and it doesn't look chipped at all

turbos86 - Already bought the Tamiya model (since Nakazato's R32 is basically stock with tuned engine), gonna have to scratchbuild an front-mount intercooler, maybe add a bigger turbo. Hardest part will be getting some Night Kids decals, though..

and finally

barnabei - I have a Tamiya S13 lined up for this bodykit from Border in Japan:

I have to get ahold of some epoxy putty first, though.

Again, thanks for the comments everyone :flash:

Here are the wheels that came with the kit:

Damn. That shit looks crazy. Like the silvia was bulkin up w/ some steroids and shit. I personally think the blue rims look pretty tight. I don't like how the headlights look like they're one single piece w/ the "silvia" symbol. Looks like that dude from star trek.......

I want that kit soo bad anyone know where I might be able to get one. ALso does anyone make taht kit for a real S13?
