Impul Turbo Sillhouette

It's building season again. I got some interior work done on this car. I have to do the seatbelts yet and install the roll cage, then some cleanup and touch up. This kit is old and it shows. Some parts are not molded too well and needed allot of clean up but it is a cool old group 5 car.

Re: Impul Turbo Sillhouette

Looks very good!

Are you basing your interior details on reference photos or on the creative license? (asking because I have a couple of silhouette kits from Aoshima)

The only reference I could find was using screenshots from a youtube video. Th only part I was not sure about is the small white cylinder next to the oil tank. Also I discovered there should be a hole in the side window to access the small oil overflow tank connected to the main oil tank. I carefully located and drilled that also.

Re: Impul Turbo Sillhouette

Mmmm, I must check: there's a GTR Magazine with a couple monography of Mr.Hoshino and Mr.Hasemi: there are several models and this Silvia has a page with few (and small) interior/engine picts - ever if I remember right. I remind it since I thought to start to search a model of it, it looked awesome on pict: I check and let you now if I findo something useful.

Really beautiful car, and great interior, more when reference pictures are difficult to find.
