The Tamiya R-32 and Performance Car Magazine came from a friend in N.Z. ;) The 3 Aoshima wheelsets came from American Satco (www.americansatco.com) . The Evo V, Prelude, 2 mufflers, and 3rd generation Skyline, and 2 Fujimi wheelsetscame from HLJ. The Prelude is from Fujimi's Toghe series and has simplified chassia detailing/assembly but has a cool set of tuner decals. The 3rd gen. Skyline has decent detailing and somewhat simplified assembly/detailing. :bandit:

Yeah the old school Skyline!! I vote that one first and do it the old school drifter style :D , look exactly like a Datsun 1600. Whats that Skyline like anyway? I picked up a NZ Performance car mag from school today for free :finger: Got a phat Cadillac in it.

I believe those BBS LM's are 17". I have 4 sets from satco. Looks quite good on more mainstream cars (eg. S2000) but looks too small on exotics. (eg. Ferrari 360) Compare them with the very similar-design 18" wheels from the Tamiya Porsche GT2. Now that's the right size!

The one I find most interesting is the 3rd gen skyline. You GOTTA do a build report on that one, pleaase. It doesnt really matter tough, I'm getting the Tamiya one anyway. No more fujimi :mad: only Tamiya :cool:

Nice choices.

I'm tempted to get one of those Evo V's (for possible veilside), they look great on the box but wot they like?

:zx11pisse All you pro model people getting all these fancy kits and one time... I can't even find a Tamiya model except for a Modena for $41... That will all change this weekend when I go to an official licensed Tamiya dealer that has TONS of model stuff. I will still always be jealous of you guys ordering tons of kits at a time and showing off all the pics. :mad: ;)

Nice order you got there Antonio! Can you post some picture of the contents of the Prelude Kit? Cause i'm deciding whether or not to get the one you have or the JUN mechanic version by Aoshima.

Thanks! ;)
