Want to do an RSR conversion for the Fujimi kit. Started with a smashed flat nose body much list this to create the front faring. - Removed the rubber moldings
- Filled the light openings
- Enlarged the oil cooler opening
- Cut the bumper free from the body

Attached the bumper to the Fujimi RS 3.0 body and created the brake cooling ducts.   |

When I read Porsche RSR I mistakenly thought of this:

JC,
Another one of your special Porsche conversions. As usual, I'm super impressed with how you go about modifying the AM parts as needed.

The car is running a fuel cell so I removed the gas tank and fabricated a cover plate.  My preferred technique on Fujimi Porsche builds is to use the curbside chassis, suspension and interior tub and add the EM parts to it.  |

JC,
Those Scale Production White Metal headers look fantastic. I've really got to take a look at what they offer. I'm sure I can find a few things that fit my retired person's budget.

Maybe the roll bar was originally designed for a RHD car? Odd for a Porsche, but you never know.

JC,
The important thing that I took out of this roll bar brace location is that your research is more then up to the task to correctly finalize it's orientation.
