Audi R8 Model Kit by Alvin L.

 

 

This is the new 1/24 Revell of Germany Audi R8 I just finished.  I started with the idea that if I owned the real thing I would like to bring it to the Sema show, since I can't afford the real car I use models to get my Ideas out of my head. 

The R8's engine was upgraded with a supercharger and a big top mount intercooler, the exhaust was changed out and free flowing  mufflers and custom exhaust tips were installed.  The computer was remapped to accept the extra air, bringing hp from 420 up to 535 @ 7800 rpm and 0-60 in 4.1. 

I changed the wheels to a lighter weight Volk racing wheel which were custom painted.  The suspension was tuned and lowered for a more aggressive feel and stance.  The factory mirrors were replaced for a smoother look, and the sideblades were upgraded to a light carbon Kevlar along with engine compartment trim to match. 

Race seats were installed with harness belts for both driver and passenger with an option to shut off the airbags through a SRS control unit switch.  (There really isn't a switch it's just a model.) The paint is Tamiya white primer and Tamiya clear coat.  Hope you enjoy this model.

  • You & Your Audi TT: Buying,enjoying,maintaining,modifying - The Audi TT is one of the few cars which transcends the automotive world, and is applauded for its design per se. Since its launch in early 1999, the TT has been a spectacular sales success, particularly in the UK and the USA. Quattro four-wheel-drive makes the TT unique amongst the current crop of coupes and roadsters. Nearly six years after it was first unveiled to the press, the car still turns heads, and has inspired a burgeoning aftermarket accessory and tuning industry. This all-color book will fascinate all Audi TT owners and sports car enthusiasts in general.
