Hi Guys,


being a Porsche fan I was really please when Tamiya decided to release the GT3 VIP CUP kit but I prefer the road legal version the GT3 RS, a magnificent super car. So with the help of 2 great TC members, aatnaked and Willy Chang we produced a 'kit' that would allow us to turn the CUP car to the road version.


aatnaked did a perfect reproduction of the original wheels in aluminium and Wills did the specific decals. I have lacquered the wheels in both the orange and black.


This car is availlable in 4 colour schemes and here are 2 of them. The chassis is the new TT01E wich has better steering (you can even install ball bearings on the steering) and a reinforced chassis through a new upper plate.



I think this work paid off as they look gorgeous.



Ming, Wills many thanks guys you are stars !



Of course if you are interested in doing the same just contact me or the other members involved in this project.

Fantastic Jerome , Viper Green is my 2nd favourite Porsche colour. Btw - are those brake discs hiding behind those wheels?
