ITR Progress Pics...

[nikanora]

Hey guys, this is my latest project, other than finding a nice case for my computer and CHEAP white leds local for my supra.

It's my ITR, my second model, well here are some pics.

I decided to put a nice hood scoop into the hood, i hope it turns out well



And this is the color i'm going to be using, it's chromo spray paint with clear blue airburshed over top of it to give it a really nice bright metallic blue color (i think it looks like the impreza rally blue, but that's just me) and i plan on doing a type of racing strip design across the hood over the fender(the strips being silver/chrome)


Haven't done the rims or the interior yet but i'm thinking of a white/light blue two tone interior with either chrome or white rims.

Tell me what you think so far.

Looking good so far! I also used transparent blue over chrome for my 300ZX (its in the gallery). I agree, the resulting color is very nice and very metallic.

Hmm, blue ITR? Looks good on it.
By the way.. I like the coin over the hood.. loL!

[nikanora]

Yeah, so i saw, I was going to do the exact same thing with a 300zx but i saw that you did it so i opted to buy a ITR and do it to that instead of buying a 300zx

Thanks for the comments

I like the idea of the bonnet being cut like that ...very cool looking

Thats gonna look good, any other mods planned.

[nikanora]

Well, i got to thinking, if i mod the front, i might aswell mod the back However i need some feed back on this one...

I'm thinking about putting a dual coffee can sized exhaust going through the back bumper with some, here are some pics of the spare bumper i was messing around with...(sorry for the quality, my friend has the good camera)





The metal tips i used are actually some electrial supplies, they're called "steel crimp connectors". I work at hardware store and i walked by these one day and though "Man, these would make great looking aftermarket tip" so i bought some along with some white drying epoxy paste.

Tell me what you think i should do, if i do it i will make sure they are nice and lined up straight so they look right, i did these fairly quickly with a drill press. Oh and i'll also putty up the existing hole it came with.

coming along nicely!! the exhaust is definitly not something that i would put on my own car but it sure would be a site to see. keep us up to date on your progress

[turbos86]

Remember the Batmobile? Those exhaust looks like rocket packs
WOW

[rcmaxx]

LOL< couldn't you buy the tubes a tiny wee smaller? ........whaever rows you boat.......rows your boat........mary mary mary...............aaaaaaaaaaaa sleepy

[pkw1]

heehee.. don't you just love those coins

[flyonthewall]

hey man i like it although the tips are a little too big for me. Also maybe have a gap between the body work and the tip, in reality the hole wouldnt be just right for the exhaust to fit through. Just something to think about!

I think the exhaust looks great like that but I would have to see a pic of that practice bumper on the car. Also I have a problem with my Itr see I was going to have it all red so I painted the hood red with a mirror or chrome look on the inside so now if I go LeMans like the white and orange ones that race but do white and red do u think the red hood would still work or do u have any other color sugestions?

The duel tip's look great but just need to be a bit smaller

[nikanora]

Welp, here is an update on my ITR, i've added some side skirts to it, this was my first attempt and i think it came out pretty well, the pictures however didn't i'll post them anyways so tell me what you think. I'm not sure if i want to do anything to the front of the fender/wheelwell (and back) to match the side skirt, i'm afraid i'll do something and it'll look pretty dumb, i think it's looking hot right

I'm also in debate about the color again. i'm thinking about now a grey with a cool darker(not too much darker) grey pinstipe/design down the side and on the hood.
