Yellow R33GTR...

[Noz]

I've just seen a Nismo 400R for sale here in the UK, asking price is £70,000 ($100,596 US, so I'm told) but it was blue.

As for the yellow, I was thinking a slightly richer yellow than the one in tenzoracerevovii's picture, almost like the Evo in Mr Primera's signature.

I think another HLJ order is on the cards

I thought the 400R only came in red, yellow, silver and black. Oh, well, if you pay that much for a car, I bet you can have it in any color you like.

Do a 400R; everyone will be mad at you for doing it first. :right:

Wel, the link is below, you can see for yourself

I made another HLJ order last night, bought some Nismo GTLM 18" rims, a large calibre tailpipe and, I'm such a sucker for online ordering, a Fujimi Veilside R33

Not much of it's in stock though, so I'll hang fire on the yellow paint for a while, see which I think matches best. Trouble with the 400R, is the 'slightly' aftermarket bonnet & front air dam. Perhaps we have a job for Mr flyonthewall?

Did ya order the NISMO LMGT-2 rims from Fujimi? I ordered the same ones! I need to get my ass in gear and put them on a kit before you do :finger: :finger: :finger:

j/k

[Noz]

I did, yeah

[flyonthewall]

maybe i should make a Nismo 400r transkit for the tamiya r33??? Hadn't considered it before, what do u guys think?

[Noz]

It'd be great to see one, although from the looks of the 400R, it may require a totally reworked body... then again, you know more about it than me

Well from what i can see all thats needed is a new front spoiler, side skirts, new rear and a modified spoiler - unless i've missed something???
The whole conversion would be relatively simple...If i see a good priced R33 at the model show i'm going to at the weekend i may buy it and give it a go!

Ah it doesn't look too bad from that photo, the one I was looking at, the intakes on the skirts look enourmous.

Do keep us updated

I'd be first in line to get one! And hey! It's wearing my rims!
