Lightning rod exhausts (or zigzag) are a very nice feature on the kaido racers, especially if they are mounted on the side of the car as done on this Mark II GX71:
Another nice detail on this Mark II is the lightning rod vinyl striping over the side of the car:

Okay the end result is not 100% realistic, but at least the hoodfins, oil cooler and blistered fender flares should be realistic enough? 😉

by banpei with no comments yetLast Thursday I was reading one of the RC car features on Speedhunters. This feature was about a roofchopped Toyota Soarer by Tijs Lochbaum crafted with the most tiny details. It reminded me of another RC car that was sent in by one of my readers: a roofchopped Mark II GX71 with the same level of details as the Soarer. Could it be???
Yes indeed: almost two months ago the very same Tijs approached me with the picture above and just look at all those tiny details!
At a glance you immediately spot the oil cooler, blistered fenders, hood fins, victory exhaust pipes, JDM license plate, headlight covers and the bosozoku driver inside!
The Mark II was built for the WK RC drifing match held at the end of August and it became second in the best of show competition. (more…)

Everything is the same on this car. Even the banana tail lights and the lightning exhaust pipes are the same!
