The filter element looks so realistic!
Will it have some sort of mesh covering over each fin?

Steve, come on now. Buying airfilters is cheating.

Re: Progress - 1:12 Skyline R32 GTR

The filters and the aluminum looks great. However, white paper filters aren't very flow efficient, are they? Die the filters dark red, for that K&N FIPK look.

They look amazing! Keep the filters just like that, in my opinion they look cleaner

Re: Progress - 1:12 Skyline R32 GTR

I haven't commented on this model yet, but I finally decided to. There really isn't anything that I can say that hasn't allready been said. This is an absolutly beautiful model.
BTW-Are the filters made out of paper or styrene?

Re: Progress - 1:12 Skyline R32 GTR

Amazing, I only just found this, I'm lurking in the motorsport forum too much!

One comment though, correct me if I'm wrong but the front driveshaft looks completely weird to me. The CV gators seem to be perpendicular to the ground and the shaft itself is bent to fit. With everything else looking so perfect this just looks a bit weird.

I know ? The original Fujimi Plastic parts are that shape, if mine were any different it would not line up with the hubs, Weird as you say.

I just can't wait to see this one finished!!

BTW just a matter of interest, but Fujimi have deleted this version from their 1/12th Skylines.
