Honda Integra Type-R

[iceracer1]

This is my next project:

The Honda Integra Type R from Fujimi.













I'll use the Mugen wheels from the Tamiya S2000 for this car.



And a Japstyle exhaust will be nice







The color will be Mica Red from Tamiya I think.

Cannot wait to see this build! The exhaust looks awesome!

It looks good, but be careful when you're using your words cause the word "Jap" is a derogatory slang for Japanese people and may be offensive as a racial slur. Just letting you know in the future.

[prortiz80]

please next time use the term JDM

[axiom]

will this be a curbside kit or you'll put in a motor?

So many projects of you at the same time - let's see what happens at the end :-)

Just 3 kits.... The F40 is nearly finished. I also do 2 models at the same time...

I started with sanding the body. Some moldlines needs to be removed, and I also openend the grille just under the bonnet.

Than I painted it with primer.

I also started on the chassis. I lowered it with the original parts, and now it's maximum lowered, the Mugen wheels didn't fit between the body and chassis. They are just a bit to wide. I can cut them and cut a bit away, but I think that's not what I want. So I searched in my wheelbox and found some Advang RG-II wheels.

On Google I found a picture of a white Integra with the same wheels, but the body color is white.

So I also painted my Integra in TS-26 Pure White. After 6 layers it was enough







En hier de Advan RG-II wielen die erop komen. Deze passen wel.





And this is the reference picture. I also got the Advan logo's in 1/24 scale

I wouldn't lower it, now it'll be looking like a lowrider =))

BTW, nice wheels =)

But when I keep it stock it will be like a monster truck

I meant that if you make it as low as it's on the picture - that would look like a lowrider. Personally I like the so-called moster truck view better %)

Saturday I added the Advan decals and the other decals.

Sunday I clearcoated the body by spraying 3 layers of TS-13 Clear on it.

I also lowered the suspension and modified the chassis for the wheels.















Now the paint will be drying for a week and a half. Meanwhile I will paint the chassis and finish that.

whoa, ultra low stance.

The paint is looking good.

I really like the white car with gold Advans, so this build pleases me.

I take it the car doesn't steer so well now?

Last days I started with the interior.

First I painted the Recaro seats flat red, with a big distance for a rough surface.

I also did that with the other interiorparts, and I added some flocking on the thrunk and floor.



Het interieur werd op dezefde manier gedaan maar dan matzwart. Gister heb ik nog wat interieurvlokken toegevoegd.







Yesterday I also polished the body. The shine is great, but hard to see on white...















Now it's time to do some work on the chassis and finish the interior.

It looks very mean, I like the white body with the red seats in the interior, so cool combo!

[blueboost]

clean build. Look forward to see how it runs on your suspension setup.
