Rishab N Posted January 8, 2016 Another great alternate. I think this model is even better than your previous roadster. Although I've never heard of a boxer 8 cylinder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pluto_MkII Posted January 8, 2016 Great. Simply amazing! I like the flat V8. It fits perfectly in this sports car. Incredible, what you make just out of the parts from 43039. Congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2LegoOrNot2Lego... Posted January 8, 2016 That is amazing having only that small amount of parts left... :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Dower Posted January 8, 2016 well done mate! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Immo Posted January 8, 2016 The best 42039 roadster so far. Well done! The only downside I see are the seats and steering wheel - too small for that scale. But, heck, still awesome! I like the flat V8. It fits perfectly in this sports car. Don't wanna be a jack, but there's no such thing as "flat V8". When all the pistons are moving on a same surface on opposite sides of the crankshaft, the engine is called "boxer". When two rows of cylinders are at an angle, above the crankshaft, the engine is V-type. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Immo Posted January 10, 2016 Umm, don't want to be rude. Well, your link proves I'm right. It says in the article, the flat engine is otherwise called Boxer. An engine CANNOT be flat and V at the same time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bering Posted January 12, 2016 Very nice build! I like the two speed gearbox a lot. Looking forward to the instructions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lipko Posted February 19, 2016 You should put this awesome model on Rebrickable too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rikus Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) Well, your link proves I'm right. It says in the article, the flat engine is otherwise called Boxer. An engine CANNOT be flat and V at the same time. Immo, You probabily missed the point (I understood that only after reading the article 3 times...!) Boxer engine is a flat one with cylinders moving in opposite direction The so called "Flat V" or "180° V" engine is a flat one with cylinders moving in same direction The key is: boxer engine uses one crankpin for each cylinder, while "180° V" share one crankpin for each pair of opposite cylinders. By using Lego parts, one can build a "flat V" type of engine, not a boxer one... Until today, at least (I'm hoping the next Porsche model will introduce new engine parts to build a true boxer). Anyway... Really great model! Edited February 19, 2016 by Rikus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
