djmr2 - Not sure what you mean about the lip, but there is no putty on there. I usually file/sand joined edges as smooth as possible so that no putty is needed.

MythosGR - I'm not a big fan of chrome rims so I shot some chrome silver onto the chrome rims from the Civic Si. It looks much better in person, more of a satin metallic look that Tamiya rims usually come in. The camber is what the kit has, I didn't change it. The base is just a flimsy box so it might give the illusion of an off-camber wheel.

Yes the turbo is scratchbuilt but I do have the masters to make more resin copies. I'll post more about that when the right time comes.



Thanks, all.

The brakes are almost as big as the rims! That'll stop an integra in less than 100 feet which is good for a streetcar!

The piping you see in the progress pics was the prototype which used aluminum tubing. The pictures of the completed car has the resin pieces installed and painted. Intercooler was done with styrene and junked radiator cores but again the completed one is the resin piece.

I'll have resin kits for sale when I sort out the instructions. It's a bit too complicated to explain how to assemble the mess of pipes without pictures. There are other resin kits in the works, I'll be posting the website in the classifieds and possibly my sig when it's ready.

All "done"

As done as it'll get.




Chassis is painted black and fogged with silver. The details are then picked with a brush with a combination of dry brushing, brush painting, and washes.


Off to the next project. Thanks for looking!
