Looking for a model of a Nissan Skyline R33 4 door. If not, what can I use to convert to a 4 door and is there anything available on the aftermarket? BTW, Want to do an Aussie version (RHD)

Many thanks for any help.

Hi Nenad, I know there are 2 types of 4 door Skylines made by Aoshima that I found nowadays, both R34 version, 2005 or 2006 model year, tuning/racing version, both RHD. You may buy one of those to build it or with another R33 kit you probably can make one car from the two kits to the perfect match you would like to have. Here are the links, you can only reserve them at the moment, february release:

I hope this helps some. Good luck on the build.

I had a chance to buy it and make it. Perhaps you can find this kit and an R33 kit of your choice and replace the bumpers and head lights.

This and the two R34 Blitz models are the only 4-Door Skylines i've seen made. In my opinion the body of the R34 is a lot bigger looking then thee R33 and 32 and the tail lights of the R32 are closer looking to the R33 then the R34 models.

Being a major R33 fan and modeler, I have thought about making the R33 4dr with Aoshima Blitz R34 like Tommy has suggested. However, the problem is that the design of the tail lights on the real 4dr R33 is totally different with the 2dr version and that's why I gave up on the idea.

I'm not aware that Aoshima has ever made a 4dr R33 kit. If anyone is aware there's such a kit, please let us know :-)

Silver, what about getting the R32 for its tail light lamps, sanding down the tail light and bumper lines and then refilling the area with putty and before it hardens draw new lines with an xacto to resemble the light design of the car in the picture you posted. Then buy a 2-door R33 kit and remove its bumpers and put them on the R32.

Those lights on the car remind me of the S14

Search for Nismo400R,she did one once...

And it didn't look too complicated at all!
I was going to do one of those,but based on a GTS-T Tamiya Skyline or one of those drift something Aoshima GTS-T...

I gave up on it because it was... "Civic+Integra or 4 Door skyline,you choose..."

Meh :p
