subaru studio 27 transkits ???

V1nce · 12-23-2003, 05:18 AM

has anyone used or got anymore info on these transkits

zero sports

syms

cusco

now the thing im interested in is the details at the bottom say the transkits are for the tamiya subaru kit, now does this mean the road car in which case the front bumpers are the wrong shape to fit round the lights or the rally car or even the fujimi kit and the details are wrong ?

in any case they look interesting

They are not for the Tamiya kit. They are made for S27's own Resin 1/24 WRX.

so i would have thought it would be possible to fit them to the tamiya wrc 99 kit ???

Apparently not, the Tamiya kit is too wide. A more likely match is the Hasegawa or fujimi kits, the former is not a coupe though.

noticed that about the tamiya kit appears to be a different scale makes the fujimi look 1/25 or something

getting pretty pissed off with building fujimi kits looking for some thing interesting and tamiya (not a skyline :P ) chris you anywhere near completing that s15 kit :P :P

The Zero Sports kit wil work fith the Fujimi kit with some work; I found out the hard way but it'll hopefully be worth it eventually.

when you say some work you mean ??? whats the problem ?

tonioseven · 12-23-2003, 07:32 AM

skirts are too long, the front and rear ends need to be worked with a Dremel to fit.

This information is correct but I have not had time to update the website yet. These are the only transkits Studio 27 makes that do not work with a Tamiya base kit. This was much to my surprise. They can be fit to other kits but it takes a little work. Worthwhile if you like the car but not the easiest task.

Is for a Modeler kit. As you can see the code of the transkit...ST27-MO...
When Modeler company fold up, most of the McLaren F1 and Impreza were bought by ST27. That transkit is only fit on road car but not rally car...Tamiya Impreza is way too wide to get these transkit fitting on it. Hope that help.
