1/24 Mitsubishi Starion

This kit is totally rubbish especially the chassis and the way to fit the tyres. I made mistakes but not visible.Just plain OOB build. The only mistake I did it I didn't putty the inner part of the sunroof lines thus making the lines visible abit on the roof. Overall, if given a chance to build another kit of the Starion, I will refuse.

you did a good job

Looks good.

I really like it! This is the first scale Starion I've seen.

Nice! I really like the Starion, it reminds me of when I first started watching them racing in the mid 1980's! I have one of these and agree that it is pretty basic but with some effort sorting out the insufficient width of the front axle and the excessive width of the rear it should look great. Although yours loooks very nice already I think if you spent some time doing this and get the tyres to fit snugly under the wheel arches it would greatly improve the stance and overall appearance!

I think you already did a good job making the bad kit become what it is now.
If I get a chance to build this kit I will leave myself a year of free time, and then make a late model widebody version from it.

Not too bad. Good work for a crap kit! I am doing this same build right now as I drive an '84 Starion ES Turbo. Correcting this kits shortcomings is a huge chore, however with some careful work the stance is easy to fix. If you cut away some of the mount off the rear wheels they will fit much better and use a longer bolt for the front stub axles. I am converting a chassis from another kit to help with the realism on mine, but I managed to correct most of those problems when I mocked it up in the first place.

I didn't even know this kit existed. Great job you did. I'd love to have one of these in real life.
