Looks good, although I don't really like the look of the missing front end. IMO, it would look better with the front end, but an intercooler in there somewhere.

Its a nice car and a good job, but i too would like to see the front. I've yet to see a race car that has the whole front/hood gone. Maybe you could cut some air scoops onto the hood is you want that "fresh air feeling"

Nice job though

It would look ten times better with the front and hood attached, i don't understand why u have left them off? Is it because of poor fittings parts, a cock up or is that how you intended it all along?

I can't see how it makes it racey either, hardly aerodynamic is it? It would look good as part of a garage diorama though, with some mechanics working on it. Anyway just my opinion, overall finish looks good.

Maybe he is trying to make his 240z look like hirokfd's s13 in his sig.

The s13's bottom front bumper is gone. You can see the intercooler.

I also think it would look better with the front end and hood... But other than that it is very nice. Is this the Revell kit?

Looks excellent, just put the front end back on. It looks like it got into an accident.

Yeah put the front and the bonnet back on, if you want it to look like aracing Datto just don't put the bumpers on it.

you want a race look then modify the front to fit the intercooler in.

here is an old school B110 datto 120Y running an sr20det motor with big ass intercooler


that my friend is a race look
