Anyone ever use the Vorsteiner Ventross Nissan GTR R35 kit?

My next project is a GTR of course. I love the amuse and Scale Production kits. But I really can afford to spend 50-75 dollars for one of these kits (thats another kit lol). So I am considering this affordable option. Any thoughts? Has anyone ever used it?

Thank you

From what I can see, none of those trans-kits for the GTR is of anything that can't be replicated with a little plastic and putty and a little effort.
I really can't see the worth in any of them bar the wheels where they are a unique design.

What is a good putty to use. I have been using automotive glazing puty on small things. But its is way too soft for any major owrk. The most extensive I have done is biuld a custom front lip for my 370Z, which I don't have pics of since I left my camera in Mexico lol.

the price for my Seibon R35 TK is ~35$, check the Stradasports shop please,

HD price is ~20$, no decals, hood, rocker panels and pe brakes, but I have no problem with your choice

I have Amuse and Shadow Design kits for GT-R for sale in classifieds thread, relatively cheap.
Milliput is a good putty to use for making body details.

Interesting. I did a search under GTR and R35 in Stadasports and it did not come up. I did not know you have items there since I'm new to the site, and your products. I found it under the company name and the whole kit is $45 US. Savw on shipping from Europe

Thanks

Personnally I use a 2 parts epoxy Putty. if you can't find it in your area send me an email I will see what I can do for you. Usually you will find this kind of putty in a taxydermist shop. It's a lot better than the milliput because you don't have to worry about if the miliput you will buy is fresh or not. thi putty is in 2 pots. at first it look like expensive but at the end you will not throw the half of the unuse putty in the garbage.

hope this help


A+

I second that, also tamiya 2part epoxy putty is great too.
