Progress : HKS R32 Skyline

Thought I'd get a couple of things sprayed up over the weekend while the weather was not too bad. Paint is Renault Pearlescent black and engine is Tamiya Mica Red over a silver base. Will go with either the CE 28's or TE37's (possibly sprayed gold). Seats will be Recaros from SAS & I'll be having my first attempt at making a racing harness (which should be interesting judging by the Studio 27 instructions !). I think this one will have a wing - may go with R34 wing with C/F - hood will also be c/f.
That's about it for now - thanks for looking.

Just how many sets do you have of the CE28's and TE37's!!! :eek:

I'd say go with some Gold TE-37's

TE37s! IMO leave it wingless.

I'd say go with the CE28s! i agree--- leave it wingless.

Put those TE37 on it! Those wheels suit almost every car!

Sound and looks great, like to see it with the R34 wing on it (just to see).
Wheels have to be the TE37.
You say HKS R32 what are you doing to make it HKS, Decals etc?
I was expecting to the Tamiya Green Decaled HKS car.

Ahh, dam you j/k, I was going to buy that kit and same exact wheels, but youre lucky I didnt and went to hobby town and bought calsonic r32 by tamiya, i was looking forward to working on it myself, but go ahead i wanna see if this kit was worth my $$.


Ohh and nice wheels, the first pic. looks like a good progress.

Steve - It's the Aoshima HKS Kansai Service kit - not sure if I'll use the kit supplied decals as they're most black - probably just keep it simple.

That color looks like its got a little metal flake! Should be another fine build!!

This is a really good kit, just a pity about the lack of interior detail, but can't complain. I still have one somewhere. Looks really nice in black and the second wheels do look nice.

The TE37's look great IMO.

Theres one thing I can count on when going into the Completed and in Progress Projects - Street and Show section, and thats seeing a new Andy Jones thread. The Quantity and most of all, your QUALITY is just amazing.

Looking pretty good Andy!! :sunglasse

Made a bit of progress on this one :-
Paint polished out
CF'd hood with Studio 27 decal -need to clearcoat it later
Rims sprayed with Revell gold (no94)
intercooler sprayed with Alclad chrome
Engine completed - Tamiya Mica Red plus air filters from AMT 41 Woody shortened a tad

Engine looks very good indeed! You built that one quick! The wheels are just great!

Wow, I am loving it! :iceslolan

Nice work as usual Andy!

Gotta love them TE's... Keep it up man!

I liked those rims witch was on those first pics. But I could live with those TE's also. Hell, I don't even have access to those aftermarket wheels.

nice r32....engine looks great, the whole thing looks great too!
