No one can do that. It is impossible.

I think one of those is horribly out of scale. the japan kit appears to be more accurately detailed, so I'd think that it would be closer to scale, however my "stock" 180SX teardrop rims that are supposed to be 15" scale out to a horribly large 18"!

but yes, 1/24 is larger overall than 1/25.

When they're on the shelf it's pretty close. Close enough to not really even be noticeable. They are close enough that a lot of parts, even, are interchangeable between scales. Wheels, seats, and other parts can be used in one scale or the other. Aside from direct fitting parts (bumpers, etc), only engines seem to be obviously out of scale when put in one from the other.
