S15 Project reborn :)
hi guys,
i've built a orange/black S15 a while ago: ![]() ![]() and actually at the same time i was building another S15 as well orginally in gold colour with carbon fibre bonnet: ![]() unfortunately, i've cracked the body when i was polishing it and the left sideskirt was damaged when i tried to pull it off (was trying to put it on my orange S15). So it was then left in the box for a while but one day i've decided to do something rather than leaving it in the box forever. So i've stripped the paint again and repaint it in a different colour again (the 3rd time!!) and I choose to paint it yellow this time 8) Stripping the paint: ![]() modifed the front bumper a bit so it matches the sideskirts more ![]() After Primer: ![]() After a few coats of yellow ![]() What it looks like now: ![]() ![]() The body is quite fragile now after the paint was stripped a few times so i'm trying not to polish it too much (rather have some oragne peel than have a cracked body again!!!) And if nothing goes wrong, i'll probably finish it by this weekend. |

Hmm seeing that real S15 in your garage makes me hate Nissan for not continuing the "240sx" in the states. I want to move to Australia.

RyanGiorgio: Yeah they are the Andrew Racing Goltdish 18in wheels. They look quite nice and they do look like 18in wheels as well. I was thinking of getting some TE37s or similar but always no stock so i decided to try the Racing Gotldish and it turns out not too bad
I imagine they will look awesome on VIP cars!Corvette: Thanks.. but one thing.. New Zealand is NOT part of austrailia We are a separate country and we are the only country outsdie Japan that has the JDM S15s for sell![]() Zwaag: No i was not planning to do a replica of the 1:1 s15 but more like using it as an example to see what would look good and what would not on my real one Also i have no $$$$ to buy any bodykits/wheels for the real one (all the money goes to performance parts at the moment) so the model can help me feel a bit better Unfortunately the body is really fragile as i said before and the panel lines are not as sharp even before i start painting it
