no, the thinner is not the same. this thinner is for use only to dilute enamel colors ( the small bottles colors ) and to clean the dirty edges when you free hand color the window panes that are overpaint.


the small bottles are for detailing purposes not for spraying. use brush to color them.

extra cement is to glue up parts. it's better than the cement( orange cap) which is quite concentrated an messy.

rear lamps , front laps can use tamiya cement, extra thin, mr hobby cement , white glue and those glue we use in sch back then. windscreen i usually cut double side tape to stick it.

the glue i mean was the normal one that we use to stick papers together when work or study.

yes, super glue is a must. because some parts will be held strongly by super glue like if u break the tyres inner part that we fix to the chassis, we use super glue ( like my evo 3 ) and not cement cause it drys too long.

those two tapes tamiya masking tape 6 mm and 20 mm.
RM 8 for the 6mm and about RM 12 for the 20mm.

get from hobby shops.

finishing abrasive is tamiya high quality sand paper to wetsand after spraying and then polish to achelieve shiny effect.


wan bang got lots of uses. like they say fujimi tyres are FEMALE while tamiya tyres are MALE. so we use it to conver tfujimi tyres to fit to tamiya models.

bondite is to cover up holes and scratch build bodykits. ( smooth the curves )

I rebuild this model. Color is Blue and clear coated with FELT GREEN color and polished. This car now looks like a Lancer with evo 3 bodyparts on the front and side profile. I removed the intercooler and replace with the Radiator from Tamiya Evo 6. The rear spoiler is removed also. The side mirros are black in color so as the front air scoop on the bonnet.Rear lamps are tinted red color completely for a fiercer look .Just a simple rebuild.

I considered this model as a Lancer 4wd.
