HLJ order have arrived!!!!!

The 3.8 turbo do not include BBS lms, but i am building it stock with a roll bar, so im happy anyway. The carrera is just wondwerful as usual, wing and front spoiler is included, and the datsun is nice too. full engine detail. One strange thing; hood is moulded shut ????

Cool buy.

The carrera is an "Enthusiast serie" I think?
Can you do a "kit review" of this one for me? I'd like to know how are the parts.

Nice stuff!

some notes:

Like many Fujimi kits the Z is a modified re-issue. Most releases of this car do not have an engine. That should explain the molded shut hood. BTW; there was a special limited edition that had a cast metal engine!

The EM Porsche has some fit issues... Mostly the engine, some of pipes are too short, the battery is too long (turn it sideways), there are more... I think the front suspension link is too long on some releases (front wheels towed out), the bumper covers are just wrong and hard to fix too.

The race car kit looks cool (how about a peek inside the box!).
What are the decals for?

Correction: All Fujimi 240Z kit have the engine. And IIRC, the 432R should have two, the L24 and S20. (S20 is the right engine for the 432.)

But, be careful about the 911 Le Mans though, because it doesn't have the auxiliary head lights, and the red on the decal isn't so accurate, unless it's the Caltograf version.
