Question Project: R-33 GT-R

Hi fellas! Here's a sneak preview of my latest project. The ground effects were scratch-built, as will be the intercooler. The wheels are 19" but I haven't decided which set to use nor do I have any idea what color to paint it. It will have a carbon-fiber hood and rear spoiler though.

Hey, cool someone's working on a Skyline R33 too.
Hey Tonioseven, let's see who can pull a Pman and get there's done in less than a week! The kit that I started is the Skyline GTS 25t Type M from Aoshima ( Its no R33 GTR, but looks very similar without the groundeffects on the body and minus the 4 wheel drive).
I have the suspension lowered and decided on which wheels to use.
I already got the body painted also. Hope to see yours done real soon!

If it were real, I'd want it to scrape up road reflectors! I'm thinking Acura Citrus Silver or Alclad Deep Blue-to UV Flip-flop. I'm gonna use the darker 19" wheels.

Question Photo update

Hi guys! My pictures are taken with a cheap camera but here they are. I have a carbon fiber hood and rear spoiler element but they don't show up well on the Tamiya Gunmetal paint. The wheels of choice right now are Nismo LM GT-1s. Still working on the interior; just received my Studio27 seat belt kit. Base kit was the Tommy kaira R from Fujimi. I'm kinda proud of my home-made ground effects kit. Thanks to Flyonthewall for the intercooler thread! Am now working on one since I opened up the front grill and removed the ugly molded-in intercooler; will cover the openings with fine mesh screen. Comments are welcome!

Thanks fellas! The logos are from the HKS Subaru Impreza kit and from different Aoshima wheel sets. I'll get some front and rear shots posted later today Do you guys think those wheels are alright? What color seat belt should I use, red or blue? The logos on the car are from: Blitz, Apex, HKS, Project u, Super TL(exhaust people) and Recaro.

I think blue belts will look better with the gunmetal exterior.
