1:43 G-OPC model

[willhouse]

Bought this a while back, finished it this avo. Its a handmade resin kit, so didnt really fit together well without modification, and Im not really that good at doing this sort of stuff, so its not perfect, but good enough.
Let me know what you think.







Just noticed crooked tail light!



With some previous cars I have owned (except the GTR (had GTX), and the RZ)

Definitly a car I miss! I had the previous model TX3, non turb though. Is that what you had?

Ah yeap, thought you might have been talking about the KF, or whatever the early 90's one was. KE was the best of em I reckon. How did it go with the turb? The 1600 n/a was lacking a little... Would love a stock 4wd one, or a BFMR, but will never get an unmolestered one nowdays.
Pics of my old one below.





As for the models, i just get them off ebay, although the Astra was from a Dutch company, Rialto models.

ah yeh the KC series.. yeh it still lacked something down low but thats cause i was running to big of a turbo for the engine size (ran a gt28 in the end and killed the engine ahha but went well with a 25) i hated the kf onwards series was deff a hatchback tx3 FTW

Bro used to own a 323 GTX aswell a while back dunno what year it was but it was more square than the shape you had
