Aoshima's Top Secret R34 GT-R(the one not released yet)

[TanKaBoY]

Hey,
I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell me weather(sorry if this isn't the right word, i always get confused with this word) the interior of the model kit is like the real one?, and if the wheels on the model kit will come with TE37(i think they are)?
I ask because I have preordered the kit from HLJ

well since it's not released yet, I would be surprised if someone could answer that kind of question.

no one work for Aoshima here.

Like Vric said, no one can know for sure besides Aoshima, but if I were to give an educated guess, then I think the Top Secret R34 interior will be just like the Nismo and C-West R34 interiors. It's not a race interior.

As for wheels, I think it will be 19" TE37's. Aoshima's box art as TE37's and most of their box art is accurate (exception like Vertex FD3S0). Plus the real car has TE37's, so it would make sense to be as accurate as possible considering Aoshima has that mold already.

I'm sure the Top Secret R34 will have the TE37's. Whether or not they have a polished lip remains to be seen.

The interior most likely won't be like the 1:1 car but you never know.

hat was what i ment sort of... just a guess.

so like does anyone have pictures of the Top secret R34 GT-R interior?

They used the same interior sprues for the Nismo and C-West kits, it is logical to assume that they will do the same for the Top Secret variant. They are probably producing new body kit pieces, decals, box art and re-jigging the instructions. The wheels may be using existing moulds. Hopefully the 19's as they were pieces of art!!

since aoshima is working on a engine for Skyline, this kit would be very hot if it would come with one.... yea, i'm dreaming...

Aoshima's R34 doesn't accept any engine detail without modifying it, because the front section of the body has a huge bridge where the hood goes. Also, the strut towers aren't shaped correctly either.
Unless, Aoshima retool those areas, engine installation won't be so easy on any of the Aoshima R34 kits. My guess is that the upcoming RB26 kit is the same parts tree you find in some of their R32 kit, which only has the upper part of the engine. Also, compared with Tamiya's RB26, Aoshima's cam cover is wider. I still suggest using Tamiya's R32 as a donor. (You can still make a curbside R32!)
