Progress: Xanavi R34 with VQ30DETT engine

if i will change i will only change the peddals to those drilled type :iceslolan but if you are doing OOB it is ok...looks GREAT enough

I think you must ad a drivers seat=P

looks sweet!

The drilled type paddals looks good but the real car use the non-drilled one.

Looking Good !!!

my very bad~ i did not do any JGTC cars before :icon16:hmm yeah probably some wiring will be enough

looks very realistic. the interio and the cf work is superb! I know how hard it is to work with those decals around a compound surface, but you did a great job! Can't wait to see more.

Hey Nismo,
I just checked you wesbite...NICE Skylines! Is there a build-up thread of the blue R34(with engine)?
Ever thought about building the earlier KPGC10 Skylines???

On the Xanavi R34 I agree with the others, maybe add some wiring, but for the most part you built the cockpit super clean and that shot of the driver's side look pretty realistic!

Yeah, i agree, the cokpit is real cool.... the rest too! keep it rollin!!

Thank you.

Hey Nismo,

I think the progress post is gone after AF updated. Try to search under this user name if you want a try: "cph81". It was my old AF name.

Maybe. I might go for the PGC10 and KPGC110 to complete my collection. :biggrin:

Great Progress Nismo! I plan on doing a similar project!

Like I said Great Progress,Cant Wait For More :iceslolan

looks great, i havent checked back on this ina while, the cf is looking really cool, but do you have any engine updates?

For the interior, the only thing that the kits lack are the wires. Like FOTW said, no need to do it exact. Unless you really want to. I've found the slick rubber the wires are made of is difficult to glue into complex curves. You could always fabricate some eyelets, however, and that would hold them in place. I'm too lazy to do stuff like that.

The fresh air tubes are easy if you have access to Renaissance parts. They make a product called "soft duct" that looks great, but is a real soft rubber that is probably impossible to glue. I have some, but have not used it. It can be found here (http://www.scaleracecars.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=renboag&Category_Code=renaissance) or elsewhere. Alternatively, if you can find some flexible drinking straws with a small enough diameter (or, since this particular one runs under the steering column, you could slit the straw and reduce the diameter). They are made of a very difficult to work with plastic, however.

If you could score a helmet, and paint it up, that would be totally sweet even though I've never seen JGTC cars with helmets just chillin' inside all rally style.

Anyway, why are you askin' us for comments? You've got all the reference....

Wickid-A!!! :sunglasse
Keep It Up! I might just end up buying another model just being inspired by your awesome work!

Thank you.

Um... i'm not being rude and all but a part of me does'nt believe...
She/you look like a jpop artist... A. Hamasaki? :shrugz: dunno...

not to be mean Nismo...but all the asian girls I know look almost the same to me. btw, great job on the interior.

Nismo,
That cockpit looks fantastic! Great work!!

Great work so far Nismo.
Both the modelling and detailing process are looking really good.
I’d also the opportunity to visit your website and admire some of your great models. Excellent work. :)

Wow! Just what the interior needed. Looks very convincing. Don't do anymore interior detailing...I'm so jealous now :smile:

"looks allright"?.... :eek7:

I think you just wanted to mean perfect! :eek:

I've never seen two asian girls (or guys) looking the same, :sly: but I've never seen such a cleanly, accurately done and so real-looking interior neither! :smokin:

You girls really know how to take our poor guys' hearts!... :loser: :lol:
I don't know how to translate it, so I'll tell it in french:
Chapeau bas, mademoiselle Nismo400r!

Great job on the interior. Really nice! You have top notch skill....and an obvious love for the Skyline.

Man (Girl) that is awesome! A+ For you!, :lol: Me soo Jealous, lol.

Looking great, but I have a question...

Nismo400R, will you marry me?

Hey hey hey! buddy buddy buddy buddy, i asked first man, back off! :sunglasse

That's it, knife fight, right here, right now!

Ah, forget it, I wouldn't want my wife to be better at models than me anyway, lmao.

We can still have the knife fight if you want though. Everyone enjoys a good clean knife fight.

Do you have any more information on that car, or pictures?

Yvonne...that looks great. So the hood vents supplied as pieces you have to glue on, or in this case, into?

Yes the vent is a seperate piece.

Do you have any more information on that car, or pictures?

Knightinwhite, I went to the site that Drifter_D was linking the picture from, and there's another pic. Check it out here. (http://www.se-r.net/multimedia/pictures/misc/) There's so many cool Zs in Japan.

this is total madness (positive meaning) ! ! ! :iceslolan

WOw, that is just insane, I love it. Keep up the great work! Very detailed.

oooooh soo much CF :sunglasse

Mad!!!!!

I am lost for words.....this is totally insane. :)

damn you make my R34 looks like a toy!!!

awesome

damn you make my R34 looks like a toy!!!

awesome

damn you make his R34 looks like a toy!!!

:lol: :icon16:

No! You're just making YOUR R34 look like a masterpiece! I wouldn't even dream to make one like that! The CF work is heart-taking, the Calsonic is just such a perfectly shaped car... :sunglasse Everything looks so clean, not allright, just (and incredibly) RIGHT!... :eek:

...You should resin cast your skyline engines and sell them! I feel there's something nearly indecent in seeing parts of the engine under the hood... makes me want to open it so badly!... :naughty::loser: :lol:

I'm just going to disconnect and smoke a little cigarette to make my heart slow down... :smokin::lol:

... but how could I look elsewhere? You're the skyline mistress! :banghead: (what a poetry!) :grinno:

Superb work. The detail on the brakes is amazing! The Cf decals look flawless. I am shamed by the masters yet again ;)

Projects like this is why I am on AF.. to learn from the great skills of other builders! Thank you for this thread.
