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!
Thank you so much for doing step by step.. im new to this hobby
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.
my brain melted watching this
Thanks for sharing, that was awesome tips. Happy building
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
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!
Awesome tip keep them coming.
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
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
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
Awesome Erriott!!!
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?
Instructions unclear, got pulled over by a cop.
I just got me a model Silvia scale kit want to modify it hehehe ive done a few in the pass Cheer's
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!
that's great! thanks for sharing.
Can you do a tutorial on how to lower Tamiya kits please
how did you reinstall the steering rack ? The height of the U joint is different after you you lower the suspension. Can you still steer the wheel after doing that ? 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 :)
hey bro how did it go?
How to add a tow hook please
My build is a bit complicated as it’s engine swapped AWD converted and lowered
Hi mate, nice tip, I wonder, where you buy separate wheels? Im thinking of start a project but hate the original wheels that I get with the kit.

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
Chris Tong Okay, thanks!
When I first saw this I thought it was for hotwheels.
Nice job man :)
tuned4life Thanks dude :D
ELP Modelling No problem :), How do you feel about the head and tail lights on this kit I think from what I have seen the aren't as accurate as they could be.
awesome! thanks ;)
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!
YourHobbiesOnUs Not a problem! :D
How do you take the wheels of a ready built model car
Sam Weatherley Do you mean a diecast or a model kit that has been built previously?
Is fujimi or tamiya better overall?
Thanks :)
A Pugs Dream gggggggggggggg
那白色東西去哪買 也就是遙控車要轉彎時的那東西
Y don't u make vids anymore
where can I but the saw tool
nice tip
How to camber you're car please
Just get a pair of pliers and bend the wheels and axles
I would use metal clothes hanger, bend it to the angle you want the wheels to be, clip it, and glue it onto the car!
Who are you calling a model car, jerk?
Take the A2 or M20 but sorry, I won’t be your car...
where do you find your wheels?

Cool
good
Where can I buy a kit? Or what is the brand name? I am in the US
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.
eXite Video Magazine can you contact me because I am looking for a 1/24 scale tamiya 1997 nissan skyline non race car model kit
Raceboy5512YT just look for it on eBay.
hobby lobby, or any kind of hobby store. Michaels arts and crafts store also carry models.
Raceboy5512YT u almost copied my name..... but I'm the original Raceboy out of us two
asome
Would you be willing to make a 1/24 model matching my Evo 9 silver in my videos? Would love to use one for my upcoming wedding on the cake. Price shipped if you can.
Stephen Brewer Hey Stephen I prefer not to do builds for people due to the pressure that come with it and also theres always a chance of them breaking in the post however well you pack them. If your located in the US I can put you in touch with a few who may be willing to do it for you :)
Sounds good! Thank you!
what model cars are those?
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!
Thanks tho i know what car was it but i'll see what other Fujimi has
cool tip
+Neal Beggs Many thanks!

Cut springs
What kind of toy is this plz reply
A model kits dumbass
needs to be lowerd more
Or just leave out the suspension altogether.
This only works for Macpherson Strut...
Not a comprehensive tutorial
+Jony Flying I'm always open to suggestions on other tutorials. I did say in this that the method can be used on other kits with a little bit of imagination
gonna try this on my messed up ae86 before i ruin the supra
+k Good to know! Be sure to post some photos on the Facebook page :)
How to lower a model plane
+Keya Bhattacharya Don't fit the wheels and let it sit on its fuselage ;)
It's muGEN not moojen. FFR
+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
you ricer! Lol nice video and overall nice tip bro
so late
100th
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.
What models do you have?
