Re: Subaru Impreza 555 Rally Catalunya 1995

Finally, some updates:

Finished clearcoating the body and other parts.





The chassis is also done. To my surprise, there weren’t too much fitment problems with the transkit.





Need to bend the suspension arms at the front to accommodate the shorter suspension of the transkit. The brake discs are copied from Tamiya’s Impreza.





Next up is the interior.

Thanks for looking!

Cheers,

Thanks! The transkit is way better in terms of quality than the older Renaissance products I tried. Highly recommended

Cheers,

Re: Subaru Impreza 555 Rally Catalunya 1995

Hello everyone. More updates after a 3-month break:

The dashboard used in 95-spec Impreza is slightly different from the earlier versions, namely the locations of switches.



Added a toggle switch and the Prodrive decal in the middle





Completed rims



Body, polished and waxed







Completed interior. I made some modifications to the steering wheel as well







More updates in the next few days. Thanks for looking.

Cheers,

Re: Subaru Impreza 555 Rally Catalunya 1995

Thanks for the comments guys!

Stevenoble: I used Gunze's #9 Spray can (Gold) to paint the wheels and it looks much better than Tamiya's gold.

Just finished this one up. The completed model can be found here.

Cheers,
