1/24 Fujimi RX-7 (FD3S) with RE-AMEMIYA body kit.

Here's Fujimi's Proj. D FD3S (from the Initial D series).

It's a mid 90's RX-7 with RE-Amemiya's wide body kit.

There are some fitting problems but generally it's a good model. I used Aoshima's Advan RG wheels (the ones that came with the kit are to small) and some photoetched details to improve it a little.

Here are some photos:

















Cheers

No fair posting pics of real cars!

Just kidding, that shows some awesome building skills. I'm no fan of that bodykit, but I'm a big fan of your work on it!

It might not be possible to use fujimi or aoshima's wheels directly on Tamiya models, but adapting them is not overly complex!

Here are some links to some possible solutions for your problem:

I hope it helps

Great build
Yep, i hate how Fujimi just don't take notice of their wheel problems, i think half their car kits have it.
