Re: static display?

Static = not moving
Curbside = no engine

Static can be curbside or with full engine detail. Tamiya v-spec (be it R33 or R34) are static and curbside display model kits.

Re: static display?

The question on which Skylines models have engine detail has got to be the most frequently asked one on this forum, yet I don't think it's in the FAQ. But to answer you, in short - no. Only Tamiya and Aoshima R32 kits have engine detail.

Re: static display?

If you go back and read what I wrote again you'll see that Tamiya R33 and R34 kits are curbside. You asked about a v-spec model. There is no R32 v-spec model by Tamiya.

Re: static display?

if u really want an engine and can't build it, just get both kits, slice the bonnet, and put in the r32 engine.. sure it isn't r34.. but looks good enough
