The build included a Tamiya stock R32 and Tamiya Race Version R32. Subtle differences between the 2 kits like spindles, the hybrid interior I built, undercarriage access., engine parts, wheels (for me to whord..LOL) etc.

The exhaust is solid stock styrene. This particular kind is not Evergreen like I usually use. I had to be very cautious heating it. The exhaust round flanges are sheet styrene. The muffler is Fujimi machined aluminum.

ALSO.

I would like to thank Steve (Hiroboy) for the high detail photos of his 1:1 R32. The photos he showed me were invaluable.

I would also like to thank Joe (malsheem) for the MotoRex decals.

Thanks a bunch, guys!

Aw ha. Modeler's 1/24 (2) seat harness set. As you mentioned they are white metal. They are intended to be used as Cam-Lock recepticals but they fit the wheel much better! LOL

Hence the reason the model isn't 100% complete. Best 1 Hobby is still trying to get me another set.

1st time I viewed this thread Imageshack was down
but now WOW I can see it,
You have put so much detail and thought in to it. I agree it has to be one of the best R32's built on AF.

Thanks everyone again for all the nice comments! Much appreciated.
