  I have just been over at the Hobby Link Japan website and saw a few interesting things.
  1. Customize Parts Technical Set
  2. Customize Parts High Speed Set
  3. Enzo Ferrari
  
  If anyone has any information please let us know. Those who predicted an enzo, looks like they were right. Its a bit more expensive than the other kits, its the same price as the initial d set and the GTR history set, sounds like it will be something special.
  Heres a link, just click on the passenger cars button:

  There is no information or pictures yet, pretty exciting though.

  How could they make the Enzo? It’s got such a wierd shape to it, I don’t know if it’d look right on a bit.
  
  I was actually told yesterday by someone I know that there is one in my area. I’d love to pull up next to it. He said the Warranty is void if you don’t use Graphite Motor Oil, and I guess it’s like $60 a quart!!!… I thought my Mobil 1 was bad

  I just visited bithed’s site who has some pictures of the new stuff mentioned above, check it out. The enzo looks pretty good, but ohh boy did they screw up the murcielago.

  yeah, the enzo does look good, but did you see the murcielago? green :dead: I’m just hoping it looks better in real than it does in that photo.

  The enzo looks nice, but it looks like somebody vomited allover the lambo.
  
  The lambo/ferarri sets look nice, i bet they are very $$ tho.

  Not with the Aus dollar so high at the moment. Imported BCGs are cheaper than ever

  Your right bro… that does look pretty good! The Murcielago’s shape is nice, and I think it looks sharp in the lambo set

  lol, i just compared my custom enzo, with the bit char-g one, and they look exactly the same, except mine has side mirrors, and where the front windshield is suppose to seperate the door windows, there is none on mine

  Hobbylink Japan have just put up photos of the new tech set thingies. The high speed set contains a set of axles and front wheel clips, the wheels are gold like those on the WRX sets. Follow the link in the original post of this topic to get there and check it out.

  I’m not sure, all I can see is, a motor, some cones, the starting flag thingy and coloured tires. I dont know what the white things are. Can anyone read that language? everything has a label at the top of the picture.

  the white things are little barriers that go on top of the cones. you can use it to make a little “garage” for autocross/gymkhana courses.
  They’re the same things that came with the AE86 tune-up box, only they were red in that set.

  Good. The spoiler looked stupid anyway. Way out of scale.

  If it doesn’t have the wing, it’s a Muira, not a Jota. only the one Jota was ever built… thhough, name inaccuracy aside, it does look good in that colour and without the wing.
