NEXT.....Tommy Kaira Subaru M20B WRX STi...
Well at last i have made up my mind on the next one to build. It will be the Tommy Kaira Subaru
Had a play with the set up last night and i'm thinking about throwing the wheels and using aftermarket ones. Here's a pic of what they look like from the box. I really want to keep the car standard and use these rims but they dont quite look right IMO...maybe once its built it will look OK. The rims will need to be painted again as they look crap. Car will be painted white. Updates will follow as it get done

Future model.....
Hi,
i think that originals wheels are very small than the picture on the box...... It's not a suprise by the manufacturers FUJIMI or TAMIYA..... It would be nice in 18" or in 19" if you decide to open the wheel arch.......... that would be a good project....... Laurent........     Bye.......

Awesome, thought of a color yet? :coolguy:
Word of advice: Cutting out the four vents on the hood (bonnet) can be tough as the plastic is pretty thick. I managed to cut them out hacking away with my X-acto knife and a dental probe, but I'm sure there's an easier/better way..

Nice looking kit P/Man, I'll expect it finished by thursday then!
 But can you tell me WHO/WHAT Tommy Kaira IS/ARE? Are they Scooby tuners? Is he a racing driver who races Scoobies? Oh for those of you thinking why the f**k is he on about Scooby Doo, I'm not here in England the Subaru Impreza is affectionatley known as a SCOOBY (Scooby-Doo=Subaru Get it?)

The design of the wheels looks gd... but i have to agree that the color sucks... a slightly lighter shade of gold will be better... I will be starting my WRX VI soon... will be using this set of wheels...

Today was paint day and it came out pretty well.
Yesterday the body was primed and then the primer was oven baked at my work which allows me to spray the finish coat the following day. Other bits and pieces have been sprayed and detail work to be done next.
