Sorry this took so long I have had it done for about three months i just got a digcam. This won best Euro/Import and best interior in a show in June.This is the Castrol Supra mixed with the street Supra. I put fujimi TE37 which was a pain in the ass to put on tamiya suspension. The brakes in the front are from the race car and the back are fujimi Brembos. The back tires are the wide Supra stock ones. The exhaust is a custom aluminum one with the Apexi n1 muffler. The seatbelts are from Modelers. I made the main vents in the hood because the other vents from the race kit would not fit with the engine. The intercooler was made by me and the wing came from an extra that came in my CWest RX-7. I put carbon fiber around the gauges and dash and on the passenger airbag and got extra decals and gauges from fujimi muffler tune set and other models. The nitrous kit is a kit from detail masters the supra declas on them are on there to hide where the super glue fogged up the metal. The shifter and antena were from a pin and the license plate is a new texas one with the engine code of the car. Tell me what you guys think.
Steve

Lowering it

I have already lowered it it just a millimeter from the wheel well its beacuse the fenders are bigger for race wheels and i didnt want to risk messing it up trying to fill the gap. I had to get this car done for the show so i was on a time restraint.

Does the stock Tamiya Supra come with a buildable engine? I keep asking this same question but I want a Japanese car that i can build the engine in.

Tamyia R32 GTRs all have buildable engines

Looks to be a pretty good job you have done....colour sets it off well.
I'd try and lower it a bit to give it a tough look....and the rear wing is abit to over kill for me. The standard wing may have been better to use.
