And the turbos:



Working on the motor mount plates:



Currently waiting on more hardware to finish the manifolds.

What is everyone doing for a display case? I'd really like the Japan release one with the body stand, but have been unsuccessful in finding one.

That looks amazing!! I love your mods, they make such a difference! As for a case, I haven't given it much though until I start building, and thats a while away yet.
