Don't worry, it depends on the track... No need to make an Autopolis version!

Thank You, you beat me to it, looks like it will be the car from the first round at Aida, this version also had the 'standard' front end without the centre section being raised at the bottom, I presume to allow throughflow of air for more downforce.

And yes Jay, I had already seen that site but after I'd already done the artwork for the new decals! But thanks anyway.

Steve

Hi all,

Starting to really get there now, all of the decals are on the body now, the modified rollcage is almost complete, all I really have to do is finish the rear wing and scratch build the new style rear view mirrors.
I have had one minor mishap though, trying to file the openings into the side windows the window has cracked on one side so I will have to get a new one to replace it which will delay the final finishing for a little while, until then here's a pic of the completed body.



Steve

Looks very cool, Steve!!

Do you have a replacement glass lined up yet? Let me know if you don't; I'll check my NSX boxes...

Thanks

I have an extra windshield part from the Tamiya NSX GT kits. If that's what you need, go ahead and PM your address...

Re: Honda NSX JGTC 2003

nice work so far. As for the JGTC Supra and NSX and probably other cars, I've seen new diecast JGTC series at Target. They look 1/24 and would probably be useful for parts like the headlight of the new NSX etc.

Re: Honda NSX JGTC 2003

I'm sure a lot of people around here are grumbling that you beat us to a new-style JGTC NSX, though with work like yours, we can't really complain. this is going to be a stellar model. Can't wait to see it done.
