Hi Guys this is my second model, it's a verry old kit from LS.
I haven't seen one of these in the past. It is also a verry simple kit.
Here are some pics :

Keep the deep dish wheels you had on it initially. They suit the car so well! Love the black paint, it makes the car look really sinister, I'd definitely drive that if it were real.
Did you rig up the lights or are they part of the kit?

Thanks for the feedback all....
I keep the rims in the front, they are also not the stock ones ( it comes with some crappy wheels ). The lights were part of the kit by the way.
It also comes with a electric engine. When it is completed i make some new photos.
Thanks all.

The work you have put in seems pretty good for a 2nd model. I just think the subject (not your fault) is ugly, but then it is an old car :) NOI

@SchuberT : it is the stock ride height
@Hiroboy : you mean you don't like the shape of the car or the kit ?
I like the old look of it :smile:

I like that you've done a good job building one of the "alternative" Skylines. We get enough R32, R33, and R34's through here as it is. :biggrin:

Very nice! I must say the C210 naturally aspirated cars have a nicer grille/lights setup than the turbo GT-ES, but its still schweeeeeeeet!!!
I'd paint the first wheels a darker, more matte silver, or even metallic charcoal, but thats me, I just don't like chrome.

The shape of the car, bit too old for my taste.
