This is an amazing description video! So you can actually still have rolling wheels etc without just gluing your wheels in a different position. New Subscriber

That is great Elliott, very clearly explained and will definitely be of excellent help to us modellers who want our cars to sit lower. Thanks for this upload and keep it up!

very cool video. I'm new to this hobby. I just got my first model car today. Looking forward to this build. will definitely watch more of your videos.

Instructions unclear, got pulled over by a cop.

my brain melted watching this

Thanks for sharing, that was awesome tips. Happy building

Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing bud!

A very detailed and well done instructable, however, all you need to do is enlarge the center of the "disc" where the wheel sits in until you achieve the desired stance. I've done it multiple times and it saves all that steps you did there but congrats on a job well done!

Great video. One of the best tips I can give any model car builder is if you do it to a real car you do something to a model kinda only difference is it's smaller and made out of styrene and glue and paint so sometimes it's easier and harder onodels but same principal

Awesome tip keep them coming.

Awesome Erriott!!!

Can you show how to get the tires look like the water down. I'm not going friend of mine used to do it to slick tires on NASCAR and tractors. They felt real squishy like. I can't remember which grain of sand paper he used on them though. They looked amazing

Hey +ELP Modelling, can you do a detailed video on how to run negative camber and offset wheels when you get the time, great video!! Thanks bud👌👍👏

watch JH-Hobby he has easy tutorials

I have a Nissan mk type II I changed the wheels to a Pagani zonda S rims and I need some few cheap body kits to do with it to make it more extraordinary and I will make it like a liberty walk and this is gonna be awsome

Hi there! I' m building the car used in this video and I'm having trouble building the front part of the suspension and brakes, I didnt cement it because it told me not to, it wont stay in place when I build it, what should I do?

thanks bro! great techniques but my only concern is that you don't see the shocks after you drop it with the tubes, i guess you could just use the aftermarket metal spring "shocks" for 1/25 scale. do you think it would work to fit those springs in there?

Hey there! I'm just starting to modify my model cars. I ONLY use 1:18 die cast cars and was wondering how to adjust the camber on them? It would really help me out so thanks in advance!

Can you do a tutorial on how to lower Tamiya kits please

that's great! thanks for sharing.

I just got me a model Silvia scale kit want to modify it hehehe ive done a few in the pass Cheer's

Well it was about time amigo... Lol!! Seriously fantastic tip!! Great tut!!

Been looking everywhere for this tutorial! Subscribed as a token of thanks! I'm currently working on restoring a 1/18 diecast replica of Paul Walker's Skyline from 2 fast 2 furious. I'm quite stuck as it doesn't have a rear boot spoiler and missing a mirror! Any suggestions to what I should do? p.s. if the only way is to fabricate a custom spoiler I'm down for the challenge :)

Cole115x Check out HLJ.com, they have cheap shipping from japan and the kits are really cheap. If you're in the USA I believe amazon.com also has good deals with free shipping. stick with Tamiya (and maybe aoshima) if you are a beginner - they are the best quality imo

301Media hey! There are all kinds of kits available in Japan. I'm assuming that's what you are looking for. The big makers are Tamiya, Fujimi, and Aoshima. It seems like they are make different models and versions of certain cars. And of course, the die hard modelers all have their brand preferences. When I was in the US, I used to get mine from eBay, and sometimes the local model shops had the Japanese kits, too. Hope this helps. I live in Japan, now by the way, so if you need anymore help, maybe I can help you out.

That Red Truck That particular one is the S14 K's Autech Version. In the Us, the closest version is the '97-'98 S14 240SX. This particular model kit was made by Fujimi, in Japan. The wheel kit was made by Aoshima , also in Japan. I don't know who made the Mugen CR-Z. Hope it helped!

+B Mart. I did a feature recently on a Civic Si and actually googled the pronunciation of it due to many people messaging me telling me I say it wrong lol

this is the worst how to ive ever seen, you need to lower your suspension arms and not keep it at the same level. like a real car it goes up when you lower a car.just make a slit in the suspensionarm and bend it up, so it also goes into the wheel. like it supposed to be, so your scale wheel can fit like it should.also you cut the spring??????? just cut the mm"s you need under sthe spring

FYI this technique cannot "be adapted to any model car." This only works for a small fraction, and it doesn't work for anything I own. You might make note of that, because this was a disappointing waste of time for me.
