Talking My Supra

This is originally the Tamiya Sard Supra. I want to make it more of a factory show off car, like the option, top secret, do luck, jun something like that. They aren't really raced, more for show but still dayum fast!

I plan smoothing the body a bit by removing some rivets, and filling some race specific vents, etc. I may or may not change the rest of the body work.

The interior will be converted to a two seater, and maybe made a little more stock looking (dont know yet). The suspension will stay the same as well as undercarriage, except for where the exhaust will have to be modified to allow two seats. As you can see I am going to try and imitate actual parts such as tanabe suspension.

O and i plan on ordering some 19" Volk CE28 rims.









What do you think so far (I know theres not much yet).

Re: My Supra

Nice project but they actually race those "show" cars in Japan! Check out Option magazine for more info; The Japanese are more for performance first, looks second.

Re: My Supra

What i meant by my question is..did it come without the brakes on it?
I would do the color blue and white...or purple. that looks like the ab-flug body kit

well i still have a lot to learn, i figured they made them to say "look what i can do" now don't you want my parts?

i didn't really realize they raced cars like that, i mean i know they were driven and were definetly high performance cars, but didn't realize they were raced.

anyway, yes the shocks came separate from the brakes

thanks again everyone!!
