NSX-R Project

[amgnsx]

Hello Everyone!!!

i have been working on my NSX-R 1:24 scale model for quite some time now.

just want to share, i'm not an expert builder.
it has been taking me a looooong time to finish is as i only get to work on it on my spare time.
I'd rate this FUJIMI kit as 8 vs. a TAMIYA kit being a 10.
some parts don't fit well, and some mods and adjustments were necessary.

hope u guys like it.

Recaro

NSX-R Wing

Hood mesh, Batt under tray, Rear Diffuser

Dash, NSX-R Engine Cover

I got that one too. Pretty bad finishing on mine. Lots of pieces don't line up. Hopefully yours did.

I was going to say that, fujimi models really suck on finish comparing to Tamiya (i have like 4 tamiyas and 1 Fujimi and the fujimi looks "ok" .. a bit weird) .. i think Tamiya has now the new 02+ look on 1/24 nsx's .. good luck and i hope yours can look good!

Not exactly step by step. Just some of the process.

I agree not all parts fit well. I did a lot of sanding and shaving and fitting before I did final glue and paint.
The most difficult part was to glue on the front lower bumer and the rear lower bumper, I had to use an extra piece of plastic inside the bumper to keep it from splitting open(outward).

Yeah Tamiya kits does fit well and more detailed. This Fujimi kit does not have a full motor. Just the top ½ of the engine bay

Ariel- Wow -I didnt realize you are a talented model builder :biggrin:

[NeoNSX]

not fair! i did an NSX-R project not long ago, but all the components were white -- the interior, seats, spoiler -- all white! :frown:

but here's an animation of the creation process.



ps. i love your attention to detail with the carpet. 8)

Carbon Kevlar Seats!!!:biggrin:

 

[NSXkkk]

this is what i have. ebbro 1:24 honda nsx R. i just got it this week. spent 120 bucks for it. bought in china. it's very rare. discontinued product. the diecast is made by the company.u dont need to do anything on it.:biggrin:
this is the best one i have seen in the market. i also have a 1:18 yellow nsx. man. i am a freak on that. that white R even looks better than my 1:18 red F430. love nsx type R

 

[NSXkkk]

i bought what u have. it's made by plastic. too easy to get broken. it was broken during shipment. so i threw it away. LOL i think u can get a 1:18 regular nsx for 35 bucks on ebay. yellow or red. instead of that plastic one.

that one looks pretty cool but where's the fun in building your own. :smile:

Most models are made of plastic and they are fragile. i never buy model kits on line. i usually pick up my kits at the local hobby shop because of the same reason u said> (the kit arrives broken)
I also got a few of those diecast 1:18

But i enjoy building stuffs so buying diecast models does not really rock my boat
Besides i like to see the fruit of my labor.:smile:

I have the same one, thanks to Vance for getting it for me:smile:. That is my favorite piece.

 

[amgnsx]

I was thinking about that, it was actually going to be pretty easy just shave off the radio knobs and slap CF decal but but kinda got lazy :biggrin:

I wish i still had the patience to do those models. I have a bunch of die cast 1:18 scale cars, including an 02 nsx (blue), which is my only toy NSX.
