Toyota Supra

[iceracer1]

This is my new project.

The Toyota Supra from Tamiya:



What's inside of the kit?





I think the Supra is just beautifull from itself. That's why I'll keep it mostly stock.
The original wheels are a pain in the eye, so I changed them for Pegasus 23'' Phat Daddies.











I also have a custom made exhaust.


The body will be painted metallic black.

I love Supra's, they are beautiful cars. Are there going to be any custom parts under the bonnet?

does this kit come with a turbo?

Last days I painted the body Metallic Black.

Today I added some CF on the frontlip and some manufactor logo's on the sideskirt and rearbumper.



1 micro mistake. I think I'll leave it or paint it gun metall. It's hard to see in real life.








I hope to clearcoat it monday.

Good job with the CF decal , the overall style is perfect

[iceracer1]

I worked on the supra last days. I clearcoated it with Gunze Gloss clear. It was the first time I used this clearcoat but I think Tamiya's clearcoat works better....









When it's completly dry, I will polish the body. (maybe this weekend)

Might just be the light, but it looks a bit yellow in those last pics. Like the rim choice and the cf work. Are you going to keep the interior stock too or "race it up" a bit?

Realy loving the color on this one!

Keep it up

I think it's the light :P It's really black in reallife....

the interior will be stock but maybe some CF details. I think I paint it black/red.

Yesterday I polished the body.

After that I painted the windowtrims semigloss black.

You can still see some polishcompound in the panellines :P I'll remove it tonight.











Now it's time to do some work on the engine...

[iceracer1]

Not interesting enough guys?

I finished the engine today. I kept it stock with an carbon air-intake.

Looking way too clean

[rsxse240]

Yes, way to clean...throw some dirt at it!

kidding, kidding!

You must have posted the polished body pics when the site was being slow, or when everyone was at work. I personally LOVE what you are doing here. I can't wait to see more progress. God knows the only progress I ever see is from other people....than me that is.

don't worry, the work you're doing is great.

I gotta say, I remember your first builds, and you've gotten so good by now.

Great pictures, and wonderful builds.
I usually view your threads.

I love the fine detail work you show. I can tell you are very meticulous and it is certainly paying off. Keep up the good work!
