Just got this kit. It comes with Advan Model 5.. but i think it is a bit small.. so i am going to use the CE28N instead.... it looks like a good kit.

I do have the Tamiya R34.. but i don't have the SAS kit, so I can't compare them.. However, for a beginner like me. I think building this kit is easier? i guess.

The other set are CE28's so as they are 19" the Advan Model 5 look large as well, it would be nice to see the diameter in mm of the Advan Model 5's.

Just a little update.
I was going to find the light gunmetal color paint. I couldn't find it... so i just decide to paint it with Mr. Color Gray Silver Mica. I still need to get few coats of clear on it.

sorry for the lack of update.
I am kind of busy with school work and somewhat lost interest in building... I am just too tired to even think of it.
anyway... I clearcoated the body, polished and waxed.
the silver color is kind of unique (grey metallic mica) it has a small hue of gold in it.

o sweet ass man, that looks liek an awesome kit, iam gonna be following this thread, i myself has this r34 kit, http://www.hlj.com/scripts/hljpage.cgi?AOS03278
i also have the tamiya kit, superb kit
and as for the question on the tamiya r34 + SAS kit, id say that the tamiya + sas would be the way to go, better detail imo, tamiya is the best in detail, but i guess it would just cost more
