This one went through some paint jobs..it was first blue like the one i posted..and it's been, white, and black, now gunmetal...a friend helped me make that custom muffler..the rims are gunmetal as well..i think it looks :bigthumb: ...let's see more pics!..

Heh, you do know I made a new thread, as I couldnt get the pics up for about 2 months on this one. I guess they came out. How did you get a blue one? Ive only ever seen White/Yellow. My yellow one has a 1/18 Maisto S2000 muffler, looks just like a fart can. You should take Testors thinner to the black area on the rear side glass, they have it a little thick on these models. On the Civic, Take out the headlights, then paint the inner housing black, leave turnsignal area, and projector area silver. Take Testors thinner to the amber part of the outer housing, put it back together, and you got Civic Type R lights. Do you know how to lower them? If not I could tell you that too. Thats nice shit you got.:bigthumb:

thanks for the tips! :bigthumb:

about the blue integra, i got it at wal-mart..it was the only type r they had, so i had to get it..and then i painted it white, then to black, then finally to gunmetal..but i never seen a blue one b4, so i had to go bak there and find another one..so i finally found another one and got that blue one..

i've tried to lower the gunmetal one, i used a dremel tool and cut a bit around where the screw goes in..it worked a bit..made it lower..but not to much..you can only see a slight difference..

how do you lower them?

Well with MotorMax, front suspensions are different on each model, and on Skylines, they have 2 different types of front suspension. The Integra, take it apart, look at chassis, at front there are the 2 screw sink holes. Cut the top suspension stops off, make sure it clears the "knuckles" of the front axle. Test the cut by fitting the axle on the bottom stops, and lifting up. You will want to cut(going torward center, and back) about a suare inch of material on each side. When putting the front axle on, it should be able to move up, and you should also be able to see the front axle-except the very middle, when re-assembled. When you are putting it together, the axle can(and probably will) come off the bottom stops. You will have to be patient to put it back together, it WILL be a bitch to get the thing back together. Yes, the steering will still work. I use the MotorMax Civic wheels, painted black on the yellow Integra. Use them, they will work wonders.
The Civic is different, it has wheel wells, and different suspension stops. Take the bottom plate off. Take the axle out. Then trim the wheel wells off (SAVE THEM IN GOOD CONDITION). As with the Integra, now cut off enough material so that when the axle is in place, it would move up freely. Now unlike the Integra, you need to cut the suspension pivot pole OUT of that wheel well you just cut off. There will be a sink hole on the plate you took off, where the suspension bottoms out. Take some super glue, and dab it in the sink holes. You will put the suspension poles in them, making sure they face straight up. Now instead of sliding up, you will slide the front axle down onto the poles you made. Tighten plate back on. Its not as hard to put this back together as the Integra after modding. Set on floor and enjoy lower ride height.
The rears of all of these are the same. Most are not glued on, you can adjust them, then when you have the right camber, and lowering, just lock it in place with super glue. If its glued on, just pull up on the hub(with wheel off) the rear axles should permanently bend under moderate pressure.
And DONT EVER TRY TO LOWER MOTORMAX S2000.
If I can borrow my friends digicam, im going to photo all my cars. I have taken most apart now for the interior shots.

what?!?!? u cant lower an s2000?? damn, looks like mine will look like it has a lift kit for a while. Ill try and get some pics of my 4x4 up later. Wut is the reason that you cannot lower a motor max s200?

Its front suspension is alot different from the other ones. You cant cut the suspension stops on it, you will end up cutting the chassis in 2 pieces The area where the bottom plate screws to the chassis will break, and it wont have a place to screw in. Chassis ruined! I screwed mine's up, but now the chassis is "tubbed", and it wears Maisto yellow Viper wheels, glued to the fenders, It has no suspension at all.

Well, dispite you're advice, i decided to try to lower my s2000 regardles. For a few minutes i thought that i had ruined my chassis and would have no way to put it back together. Then i had the idea of using little screws to hold the wheels in. It still turns perfectly and will still roll.

and the underside look just like it did before lowering, except for two small silver dots which are the bottems of the 2 screws i used for holding in the wheels.
