Hi All,

Here are photos of my completed R32 Skyline GT-R from the 1992 Australian Touring Car Championship, specifically from Bathurst that year. As you may know this car precipitated a massive change in touring cars in Australia, with the adoption of the V8 Supercars we have today a direct result of the desire to ban 4wd turbo cars.

I used the Tamiya Calsonic kit, as the wheels most closely resembled the Gibson Motorsport cars. Decals are from RooDecals, and required application of a lot of liquid decal film prior to application. In fact, the "Racing" decal on the bonnet was my third attempt.

No problems with the kit. In fact the Tamiya race R32's must be one of the better kits around. I would call the result an homage, rather than a replica, as there are a number of errors with the decals, but I am very happy with the result.
