Porsche Gt3

Tamiya GT3. Awesome kit. I've noticed a Porsche revolution, and I supose I'm contributing to the cause. I'm going to smooth out the back-seat ala the rx-7 in my sig. Going to add a set up somewhat familiar to the f&f supra w/ role bar for a pair of 5 or 4 point harnesses. Many of you might not like the color scheme or the use of the 350z rims, as this makes it look like a "tuner". This wasn't my intention as a Porsche hardly deserves to be turned into a tuner...but, hey I get to do what I want, and this seams to work for me.


2 coats of metallic black


now with the color scheme intact using italian red


here are the rims w/ pegasus sleeves...THANKS TO HIROBOY FOR THE TUT.


some pieces before being finished


here's the role bar and the 2 rear supports will hold the pair of nos bottles.


Feedback please!

Wow! While I admit that the wheels are a bit much, the overall look of the car is spectacular!
I especially like the red/black paintjob.

Re: Porsche Gt3

I think you did a great job on the stripes. Although they are a little tunerish... The interior looks gorgeous though. Great job!
