Does anyone make these kits?

Anyone know if any model maker makes these?:

1) 4 Door Subaru STI version 5-6
2) 200 Series Volvo (any year- from 1974 till 1990)
3) Toyota Supra Mk.3 ( I know someone makes this)
4) Nissan Cefiro
5) Any top fuel dragsters still in production?
6) 1990 Lincoln Towncar
7) late 60s Nissan Silvia (i know that htis is a BIG ask!)
8) Any Volvos besides the 850 sedans, wagons and racing versions?

Any help would be nice as I have no clue about these...Thanks

Re: Does anyone make these kits?

1) 4 Door Subaru STI version 5-6
None, but Hasegawa makes 4dr WRX. You'll need to add the front spoiler, side skirt, and rear wing. Or kitbash those from Tamiya or Hasegawa's rally version.

3) Toyota Supra Mk.3 ( I know someone makes this)
Tamiya and Fujimi. Both are curbside. I believe the Tamiya is narrow body, and Fujimi is the wide body. Tamiya's Soarer can be used to make a detailed model.

4) Nissan Cefiro
Aoshima makes the 1st Gen Cefiro. Fujimi makes the 2nd Gen Cefiro wagon.

6) 1990 Lincoln Towncar
TKM's resin kit? Not!

7) late 60s Nissan Silvia (i know that this is a BIG ask!)
Imai makes the 1st Gen Silvia 1600 Coupe

Sweet, what is the Hasegawa 4 door like? Is it curbside? What about detail? It isn't like Fujimi is it? Have you got any pictures of the 1st Gen Silvia model? I might look into the Tamiya Mk3 Supra...May or may not put the engine in....Thanks for the reply!

Hasegawa car models are fairly good. They don't overly exaggerate like Tamiya, but it still look fine. The kit isn't STi, but as I said, the parts or the entire body from a rally kit should fit the street Impreza chassis. Tire might be a too small and skinny, but that's common in all Hasegawa car kits.
I don't have the Silvia 1600 kit, but at least, I can show you the box, which I found on the net.

It's 1/24 scale curbside model.

Here's the Hasegawa kit. I like their stuff, perhaps second in line from Tamiya!?

Aoshima makes both a drift version and a street version of the first generation Cefiro sedan. i'm ordering one of these soon from 1999, because i am absolutely in love with this car.

I just checked Revells site and they have just released a Top Fuel I'm happy! I'll be getting that, and while I was there I decided to have a look at the ITR ( I know at least 95% of you have it) So i'll get one of those too.. The front of that Hasegawa kit looks like a version 4 sort of front...Does that mean I have to cut a complete rally front bumper/headlights off? I can do this easy though, I have a spare 2 door STi Rally car which I have screwed the paint up too much to sand it back......Heres the top fuel and a Lowrider model which I am getting in a couple weeks (thanks to my best friend in Canada!)



Oh yeah, That silvia looks trash stock! If I am lucky enough to find one I will do it up well...Thanks for the pic that was the one I was after!
Thanks for all the help! i'm now on a mission!

I've seen one MK.3 Supra w/ engine detail... Been meaning to pick one up...

Toyota Supra 3.0 GT Twin-Cam24




Seem like it's in stock at Hobby Search for 1710 Yen. Search for "Supra" if my link doesn't work.
