Haha, bad idea, as of now I only have 1mm suspension travel. If I take out the springs, then the tires will be rubbing against the fenders.

Kyosho didn't make a Mini-Z 240sx body, but Kyosho R246 did made a 240z body.

put some cross stitching on it :P or make scale duct tape LOL.

Haha, I wouldn't bother with the zip ties for now, because I still have to modify the front bumper, but after front bumper is finished and "if" i get hit and break it again, then I will add the stitches on it.


Update: Fixed the front bumper.

if you want to go lower on the front use a s15 silvia front clip thats what i used top get mine low. heres a quick pic of how low you could go without rubbing the tyres i have about 1/2cm from the ground to the bottom of the bumper and still have plenty of suspension travel

Wow, i thought that thing was low til xmod noob showed his R32 setup lol!

Nice work on the fenders! So clean, it looks unbelievable, the detail is amazing. Did you use a toothpick for the holes?

Thanks for the info man, but I will use the R32 front clip for now, because I don't have any S15 front clip and I am still working on the front bumper at the moment.

Haha, thanks WC, yea I used toothpick for the holes on the flares.


Update: Getting started to work on the front bumper!

Now I have a question for ya. I kinda wanted a D1 look now, like this...
http://www.autospecsltd.com/Japanese...irft%20Car.jpg
and I was wondering, what do you guys think if I should keep or loose the fender flares?

I think you should lose the fender flares. Maybe widen it?

I say keep, its perfect, if it ain't broke don't fix it.

My vote is to keep the fender flares to keep the project unique, unless you want to replicate the pictured car, in which case you should drop the flares. ;)

Somehow, I think the flares look awkward. Maybe smooth out the flares with the fender?

I say keep the flares.

Agreed - keep the flares! :cool:

No. If it aint broke then fix it until it is :)

Update: After reading many comments from many different forums, I deiced to keep the flares for now and see how it looks.

Got some work done on it tonight, side skirts, rear bumpers and lip spoiler.
