R33 Skyline GT-R
I started this one way back in June 05 but some reason lost interest and put it back in the box. It's the Tamiya kit basically OOB except for Asohima Volk Racing TE37 rims plus Aoshima discs & a Fujimi metal exhaust. The colour is a mix of Honda Imola Orange/candy orange.



Thanks for looking
Andy

To be honest I cheated ! - to get the ride height down
I didn't use the kit suspension & replaced it with metal rod axles notched into the chassis rails.

BTW/ Thanks for the comments

brilliant Idea. You source metal rods from the hobby shop specifically for this? Figured you could share the right size if you know it.

Love the build Andy.

I managed to but some 2mm brass rod awhile back which fits the Aoshima 19" rim mounting. My supply's pretty much gone now but as alternatives :
1) The humble tooth pick (don't laugh - they work !)
2) Hirobody has just started selling metal rod axles

Hope above helps
Cheers
Andy
