What a lovely kit this is. on its own its a easy step by step kit with crisp details and the fit of parts is spot on.Theres a really nice build that Rob has completed on this forum.
The fit could potentially become troublesome as the locating pins are tight in most parts but i prefer this and just open the holes out with a set of micro drills.
I got the Marlboro decal set from japan which also has all the tyre decals required to detail up and the steering wheel crown logo which is not in the kit
.
Completed the dash with switches from studio 27.


Using a lot of info from the web. Ive added detail to the engine with sensors from the exhaust,exhaust support bars,exhaust flange nuts, Jubille clip on the oil return pipe,pipe clamp on the breather pipe,brake pipes with banjos, bleed nipples, fuel leak off tube and some wiring to the injectors with painted yellow tags terminating to connectors to join up later when the engine is on.

Some glue marks in places which will need cleaning up later on.
Cheers for now.
