Nissan Skyline GT-R (R32)

Hi to all:

I've just completed this Tamiya model.

It's built almost SOOTB, with only minor additions, inspired on the Initial d Series GT-R (R32).

It has a problem with the fitting of the hood, because of the screen wipers (I should have been more careful with those parts)!

I hope you like it.

















Cheers

Even with the hood issue it looks absolutely fantastic. I especially like the little added details.

Superb build! Insanely crisp and clean, the details really set it off. The brake lines you ran look awesome, great job on this one!!

Re: Nissan Skyline GT-R (R32)

That is a beautifully clean build. I love it. Nice extra detauiling in the engine strut brace and the small wiring. Fabolous paint too!

One thing - it looks as if the rear wing isn't flush with the body work like the 1:1 car. can you confirm?

Yes, unfortunatly I have to confirme this! It's another problem with my model! I was alerted to it by a friend, but the spoiler was already glued and I was afraid to damage the paint finish if I tryed to unglue it.

Thank you all for your kind words.

Cheers
