i'm not a hardcore superGT fan but i know Jasonist is. i only been to Sepang once for 2003 F1 Qualifying session in grandstand, tat was amazing experience for me. i only collect certain model tat attract me the most coz due to budget & cabinet space reserved..hehe

myke: yup, the tyres perhaps got license given to them maybe... black is ok however it might hide some of its lines and air intakes... btw u do need to expand ur collection by buying extra cabinet if ur collection gets bigger...

REALCollector: wow... looks nice leh tat viper... from ALMS ya? btw most of these race car version of vipers from Autoart are limited editions... i would love to get myself a Gulf DBR9 if miracle happens here in malaysia haha!

talking bout the super gt, u should not miss the pitlane walkabout by paying extra RM100 coz u can have closer look on the machines and the lovely babes... i did have great experience there last time... oso hope aa can release more super gt models to come... especially the GT300 Impreza, simply amazing!

Well, I guess if you don't mind to add 1:43 scaled into your already impressive collection... get the Ebbro 1:43 Cusco Subaru.... I think not many of that model left in the market.... In Japan it's selling like hot cakes....

Yeap! I know that, I'll PM you to confirm the detail before I purchase the ticket (next year SuperGT - long way to go).... Just to check, how much one piece of those SUPERGT cars you last seen in Sepang? RM150 each?? what scale? Brand??

Nowadays, it is very hard to get new diecast from AA especially scale 1:12 or 1:18? Very long time didn't have any new diecast in that particular scale in Nikko Ipoh. I wonder why?

My 1/64 little diecast

TAKATA DOME NSX (Michigami/Kogure) wins for first time this season (source from www.SuperGT.net)

On July 27, the SUGO GT 300KM RACE, Round 5 of the 2008 AUTOBACS SUPER GT, was held at Sports land SUGO (one lap: 3.704 km) in Miyagi Prefecture and the GT500 class winner was the TAKATA DOME NSX driven by Ryo Michigami and Takashi Kogure....






sadly my favourite SC430 were winless for the last two round....

it's an actual 3d model really...made of resin by speed freaks...they have many models including the evo and subaru, about 1/24 size...i think they are really cool

Any place still can get Tamiya 1:64 JGTC?

Ha ha nope.. They do not but I'm going to do the conversion based on the brochure pictures of the X5 M Sport. May take some time though.

aurion cant wait to see your x5 m sport..........hehe......gamateh

guys... I'm looking for a model just like this one:

http://www.aa-collection.com/web/product/e...84237F3837B8057

But with a scale of 1:18.. or at least bigger than 1:43 la.. 1:43 is too small for me

I just started this hobby yesterday and this is the first model I wanna collect.. unfortunately Auto Art tak ada 1:18 punya for mazdaspeed.

Wow... Evo 9 Rallyart.. is that from Auto Art as well?? What scale is it?? I'm thinking of getting one along with a 350Z Fairlady (also 1:43 first.. since my table is quite small... )


But now main concern is getting the 1:18 Mazdaspeed RX-8.

The one by auto art.. I just order it this morning.

hi there, welcome to our thread! u remind me of my first year collection of the Tofu car by Hotworks, since then my it kept growing but not much! tat Evo 9 is from AA in 1/18 scale bought last year when i hav the chance to.. i think u cant search anywher else coz currently run out of stock. U order Mazda RX8 (Velocity Red) from AA-online? Nice purchase n i hope it does come in 1/18 scale. U might wanna try RX8 by Hotworks in 1/24 scale if size does matter for u.. go here -->Hotworks

1/64 KYOSHO

575 GTC



F430 GT


250 GTO


TFL.. .

its ok le... after my first experience should be enough le.. oso, im not from KL de... so going there is always a problem since they don provide complete transportation service, unlike the F1 event... the Aerobus only bring us to go the Sepang but return trip is not offered... which we have to pay more for taxi service... at first SIC mention the Aerobus is the transportation service FROM kl sentral TO the circuit n vice versa, too bad it ends up in a different way...

talking bout the super gt car models on sale in sepang, there are lots of choice... from ebbro de... bout the price i didnt notice tat... i was looking for autoart but too bad they are not available...

Here are some pics of my Audi and Ford.
