ellis Posted September 23, 2005 Author Share Posted September 23, 2005 Not sure - been looking for one for a while - the Tamiya one allows you to make either a J-Spec or UK Spec car (minus the headlight washers for some reason!) and left or right hand drive!. Hopefully I've got another one coming from eBay (Hong Kong!!) so going to make my 'ideal' Supra with that one - Silver with black leather (sound familiar??!!)!!
