this is my entry for our local group build here in the philippines, IPMS-Philippines bert anido chapter. it will be held in november and hopefully i could finish this in time. ill just do some minor mods( small flares, a chin or bumper and lip spoiler) and i want to make it look like a VIP-drift car, maybe white with the r34 rims. but suggestions are definitely welcome for this build. the kit has some nice details, i its the first time i came across this kit. found it in the junk pile of a hobby store, for a dollar.

This looks nice! I have never seen this kit before, and it look like you are off to a good start. I think the 19" rims look big because the bodykit is not done but with the body kit finished it will look lower and the 19" rims will look perfect. But the GTR rims are as good. Maybe add a deep dish? Anyway good start!!!:grinyes:

update:
some pics before this is finally completed. i will be adding some rubber bits around he wheel wells.(just have to find some rubber like material,,:D:D:D) a few more weathering here and there and it will be done. :D:D
also changed the front wheels to r33 rims(i crashed and ended up ruining the right side front of the car, hence the replaced fender and hood and rims, and the taped front chin. :D:D)

Nice! I love what you did to the front, swaped rims, fenders etc. A typical street drift car. GOOD WORK!
