More teaser pictures. It recuires some touch up. I've done connectors for turbo pipes. Oil lines for turbos and wastegates. Throttle lingage and fuel lines. Also wiring for solenoids.
And painted those wheels, makes a huge difference.
I've printed that computer for fun, might put it in to Hiace.

Pulleys, belts and the whole engine is from Testors Coupster. I dont have to clean those inlets, because its missing the intake tubes.

Small designing error. Where are you supposed to see.
