i know im gonna catch some grief from wilmo and rx7king but oh wells.
Tokyo Auto Salon 2003 RE Amemiya "Final 7"



there's going to be some variation between the tokyo auto salon ver. and mines because i dislike the circle tail lights they used on the real car, the rear will look more like the greddy 9.

real deal:

Wow!

[SpoonMan Dos]

Wow is right! I'm guessing you are not going to flair the fenders? Good luck, you seem to be on the right track.

[ShOrtyOC714]

This project is going to look crazy! Keep it up!

[AsongKar]

[Toyotagt1]

aayhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I was tinking that my impala SSr with sthe skyline front and rear bumper with under tray from the C5-R was crazy but that is totally crazy

[ADVANFAN]

ah damn you! i wanted to do this model, I'll probably still do it but hey it looks good so far! So did you use the porsche Gt3 front?

[Slipknot]

im going to add flares on the back but it will take some time since im working on this model in sections and im only 40% complete with the front next will be the sides and last will be the rear

its a GT2 road version althought i think the real car uses the front off a 956 or something? (note: if you're planning to build this model you'll have to cut the front end on the porsche in half to widen it. i had to widen it by 3 mm or so)

i think you posted something up in the general modelling forum about some of the re amemiya cars being way too "overdone"

p.s. nope sorry it won't be in the contest as you can see i don't want to rush things. half arse jobs aren't cool

[rx7king]

half arse jobs arent cool..i agree but 2 months?!

[AsongKar]

nah...some cars can really take more than 2 months even if it is curbside......take your time friend....make it a nice one...
