Sweet!

Wow!!!- I have a lot of catching up to do (specially to Ponyboy) :biggrin:
HPI has two versions of the LeMans NSX. There's a #46 and #47. Do you know the different between these two? I thought it was only one race car.BTW, I received the HPI 1995 turbo LeMans cars a few weeks ago. They're awesome. Very well done and the interiors are exceptional. #47 even has the "Honda VTEC Twin Turbo" nomenclature on the intake plenums and both have the LeMans track map on the center console.
There are a few errors though. #47 is missing the rear oil cooler mounted on the diffuser and some of the livery stickers seem a little off in location. And the window venting looks to be off as well (still researching that one).
They're not AutoOrbit quality but the best version of the LeMans turbo cars available.
^^^sick where you find that

Not at all! You and a few other Primers have much more extensive collections and I've been really lacking in picking up the newer HPIs (once they're gone they're gone). That said, I did pick this up recently :
Japan Yahoo Auctions. You can find all sorts of NSX stuff but you really have to sift through the "junk."
#46 has significantly less photos to use as reference than #47 but the main differences other than diff drivers and numbers are:
- #46 uses CF engine bay components while #47 uses more metal
- #46 lacks the rear quarter panel NACA ducts that #47 uses
- #46 has gold wheels and #47 black
Both are GT1 cars though and #47 has the dubious distinction of being the first car to drop out of LeMans in '95.
Hey thats pretty neat purchasing from yahoo auctions jp...didnt realize you could do that lol...
the question is do you have to contact the seller if they ship overseas? also what forms of payments do they take??
Just use an auction proxy service. They'll handle the shipping to the end client and take payment.
hmm what is exactly an auction proxy service? lol i guess ill look online or do a search thanks for the help
i think i know what you mean...ponyboy could you suggest a good provider that provides this type of service for yahoojp? thanks again
2x Autoart 1:18 NSX, the one with white wheels belongs to my friend. We rapainted the wheels and mirrors to make it look more like the oem 02+ NSX-R.
