Exclamation In progress: Revell HB Turbo w/ NOS!!

Here is the progress of my HB I have been working on, it seems to be going together better than my freekin' coupe anyway. I am building this turbo utilizing what I learned on project Del Sol type R Turbo, I am going more detailed this time as well. I am going for the JDM look with a little american "flare" of my own, hope you like.


The motor is more complete now than this pic shows, more will come soon!


a little crooked but this is not yet glued in place.

here you can see the HUGE color matched NOS bottle.




This really shows off the V-tec controller, DVD/Computer screen, and handpainted scratchbuilt gauges. a monster tach is also awaiting install

No pics of the body yet as it is just wearing the optional side skirts and rear apron right now and it's all primered. I have to wait until the rest of the car is together so I can make an entirely custom front end to fit over the very thick intercooler. The factory bumper is WAY off. The turbo got all plumed up last night so I will take pics soon, I even made an impressive HKS style blow off valve that you guys will love!!!

Yes it is HUGE, but that is for the HUGE shot it would recieve (in the real world of corse) I have seen bottles bigger than this in real life, the more NOS, the better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only if you hook it up worng to the motor and if your motor is not built for it! Trust me, if you build the motor right you can run one hell of a shot of NOS, it's all about the TUNING!!!!!!!

I used 1/8 (I am pretty sure this is the size I used) styrene tubing, cut it and just carefully worked it how I wanted it. Patience is the key when working with styrene this small.
