In Progress: Initial D BNR32 Skyline GT-R
This one been sitting on my bench for months now.
![]() It's a Tamiya R32 Skyline. Yes yes, I know Fujimi makes the official Initial D version, but it just SUCKS! So I went with Tamiya since it has engine details and the body is much more accurate. There was only 1 problem, Tamiya's R32 was the normal version, but the Initial D is V-Spec II....the only exterior visual difference was the 2 intake holes in the front bumper. That was easily taken care of with a cutter and alittle putty ![]() ![]() The car is basically stock. The comic or anime never explained what Nakazato had done to his car. Also, his car was completely stock looking anyways, so I didn't bother adding anything.....except for this boost guage I noticed watching the 1st episode of 2nd Stage. ![]() Stock engine bay~ ![]() So how can this be the Initial D version if everything is stock? You ask. Here's how: ![]() LOL~ Decals! I hope to finish this one within the next couple of days. All that's left is the body, windows....maybe another coat of paint, just maybe. Tell me what you guys think ![]() |

The boost gauge is from this.
http://www.hlj.com/scripts/hljpage.cgi?FUJ11052 The Fujimi Muffler tune set. It's cheap for the amount of things you'll get. 2 boost guage with decals, 1 (or was it 2?) Racing seat, loads of silver plated mufflers and a small sheet of tuning decals. All for 1000yen, LOL, I'm in no way affilated with Fujimi. Last edited by turbos86; 04-15-2004 at 08:48 PM. |

Re: In Progress: Initial D BNR32 Skyline GT-R
Thats awesome. I love all the Initial D cars. the paint looks good like that, though the pics are a bit dark. I like the boost gauge.

Re: In Progress: Initial D BNR32 Skyline GT-R
AWWWWWWWWWWW !!!!!!!!
A terrible thing has happen.....the body accidentally got too close to a heat lamp and the top is now all out of shape and there's no way to fix it ><" Gees....and I was about to finish it too Right now, I'm asking my friend who's in Hong Kong to see if he can get me another R32 kit, cause I can't find any locally, nor do I want to wait for HLJ to ship it over. If anyone has a spare R32 body, I'll gladly take it off your hands! Thanks. |

Wow, glad to see you building again! Too bad about the car though...... Anyways, I watched Initial D Special Stage today, and noted that the R32 has a Bride seat, not sure what kind.
Hope you get a new body soon.

Re: In Progress: Initial D BNR32 Skyline GT-R
Uh oh, Bride seat?! Guess Chris can expect an order from me soon
![]() My friend might have a race version 32 hidden somewhere, if he finds it, then this project can get back on track very soon. If not, I might have to go buy the only 32 that I could find in town today, which isn't cheap. TanKaBoY, are you planning to build all the Initial D cars? That's my goal too. I have the two 86s and DC2 on the waiting list. Also I'll be ordering some FDs for Keisuke's car. |
