GCRC Battles.. The Sky is the Limit.

I call this "Homework"... Someone has some buffing to do.

GT(S-T)R Delivery

Well the GT-ST / R is out of the workshop.

There are always things you want to do more and more. But I have to stop somewhere.

I left the lower vents closed for re-enforcement, but of course they will look better blacked out.  The Diorama is not 100% complete. But its close enough for some realistic shots.

But in shadow and from more than a meter away. you don't notice the vents.

Added some final touches. But it needs a big fat exhaust and those small loops that poke through the GTR bumper.

Mirrors were needed, these HPI leftovers are actually a nice shape for the Skyline.

+10 up front is a "just fit" senario on the already wide MST.

The first thing the new owner will do is try on numerous wheel sizes and offsets. these are +7 although the rim is an additional 1.5mm wide.

At the front and rear Offset depends on height. the higher you go the more you can stuff under. These are +7 with 2mm extra spacers. Still tucks beautifully.

What is that GT wing doing there?!!! Looking bad ass is the answer.

Well , it's not mounted, but the thin nismo item is removable. 

So a few more holes and small screws would have it looking like a street / semi track '90s day time attack GT-R in no time.  many a japanese street car has a few bits of tape covering the holes in the trunk lid. A tell-tale sign of a sunday track special.

I like this look the best. to me, this is '90s JDM style. Perhaps fresh from the Garage Saurus Factory. A 780Hp, 9 second street / all round machine!

Anyway, I'll pass this on to the client today. 

If he doesn't like it, perhaps I'll keep it for myself... Wa ha ha!

RE-Xtreme RC Client Build - GT-RS Part 1,2&3

+5... WEAK!

 +12 STRONG

Pokie pOKie POKE..

With a need to actually turn the wheels with a large scrub radius in the ridiculously small Pandora Wheel Wells.

And Stand up the rears for near Zero camber... Some fenders were added. 

A slight lean to the front opens up the rear of the fender and brings the front into a nice line.

They don't simply stick on... you have to massage these babies.

As you can see here... the mounting surface isn't exactly flat.

So you have to slowly trim, sand, trim , scrape, adjust more and more until you have the "Right" shape 

Eventually everything lines up.

Then you can move onto... masking and paint.

these were needed to create a "special" colour and applied in this order.

1/2 way through... some times you doubt yourself. But I've done enough now to know how the end result will look.

That moment of truth is the removal of the protective film.

BLING! BLURPLE!

It's more blue than purple. A full can of Blue and only a thin layer of purple.

test fit of fenders... gonna be nice...

Shiney... I've added a few stickers since this... so all thats left is the Goo Zone.
