I think I just found my next upgrade
I dont think it flows with the car. Or maybe the tires make it look like a wannabe moster truck. Maybe some skirts and front and rear lip and the wing to conplete the rockt bunny look. Its not ugly, but its missing

true. the edges are a bit rough at the moment. We'll see how they deal with all that. This is definitely just the starting stages. I will update if new pics pop up anywhere as it's hard to know when I can't read Thai. laugh.gif

Yeah I think the wheels are just a little bit too wide so it looks a little off. Either bring them in a bit or a bit of negative camber and I think it would look nicer

For some reason I'm having terrible flashbacks to when I was shopping for a Miata.

So much want.. Thanks for posting this, I'm sure it's not the last time we will see it. Looking forward to seeing it complete.

@floordauto
no problem. These Thailand celicas are crazy cool.

I don't like it . It just doesn't go with the car. It looks like one of those rc cars with giant wheels on them.

I was being nice earlier, but this. If for once someone would take the time to mold the panels into the body versus just riveting them on it might actually look nice. That and tuck the wheels in...

Yeah I'm not a fan of the rivets. They look ok on some cars but most of the time it just looks like lazy body work to me. It's definitely not my taste but to each their own

It still looks like early stages of the build. Maybe they plan on molding the panels later

Lol. Yeah guys. As I stated this was just a teaser pic posted up on the thailand celica page. I'm sure it isn't the finished product.

After seeing something like this being the "finished" product time and time again, I hope you're right.

Personally not a fan, and this is coming from someone who is a fan of the Rocket Bunny kit, but it just doesn't work on this car.
I think the car sits too high and also needs skirts or a lip (maybe this will be fixed once complete), and the wheels are poking out a bit too much for my taste.

I just can't see this style working out well on a gt-four (or front end swap), but maybe they can prove me wrong.

Looks like these are just huge fenders riveted on, along with sideskirts. Maybe if they re-worked the front fenders, have some nice rear quarter pieces, add-ons, etc.

BUT, i will admit those damn Thailanders have awesome rides! Can't wait to go see my friend and his gt-four in Thailand next winter!!!
I like it. Gives the curvy 6G a more hour glass figure wink.gif
i want to find out how i can get my hands on one of these kits.
The kit looks Okay, but the wheels look ridiculous.

That is just the normal RB for the 86 but being cut down and modified for the 6G.

It looks like theyve used rear arches for the front as well and extended the bottom a bit.

Looks like he is making a full kit.. I'm loving the progress!

@floordauto
looks like it will be interesting when its done
i think it may look good, once they finish it up and get some good wheel fitment

I found some thai forums too but couldn't read anything so I forgot about them.

The real question, what is a rocket bunny anyway and why is it called as such? I guess I'm that out of touch with my generation. tongue.gif

Rocket bunney is a JDM tuning shop. they are known for the fender flares. Wide low

IMO Regardless if you like it or not, you've got to respect the workman ship. Not many guys thinking outside the box these days

Everything is rice these days.
