Revell Subaru STI
I started this kit a while ago, but never finished it. My plans were to turn it into a weekend warrior. Cage, stripped doors, racing exhaust system, just something to test some building basics. Well here goes...
First the roll cage. I do need some input on this though. Am I missing any major bars? And how do you all build the gussets on the cages? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Thank you in advance and ill keep regular updates.

Re: Revell Subaru STI
Cage looks pretty good man. I'd "weld" in some triangles in some of the corners. That's about it. What do you mean by gussets?

Re: Revell Subaru STI
That's what I thought the triangles were called.

Re: Revell Subaru STI
Lol alright then. So just chop up some styrene triangles to the same angles of the cage, then, glue.

Re: Revell Subaru STI
D'oh! Of course lol. Sorry. Been having a banner weekend for missing obvious things.
I've never 100% trusted Revell's paint call outs:/ Interior is looking good man! |

Re: Revell Subaru STI
Well...its pretty much done. Had to contact Revell about some replacement rims....not sure where I put them...so here's pics with no wheels. Fell free to comment. The paint didn't come out very well and all pics are from my cell phone.
