Found awesome model for Drift fans

BOOSTD · 07-29-2003, 11:30 PM

I was browsing on HLJ and I am sure most of you would have seen this before but I am very excited to say the least. Those of you who follow Drift or are fans of the Japanese car scene would know about the A31 Nissan Cefiro. It is kind of like a 4 door S13 Silvia but it is equipped with an RB20DET engine and it is a very popular car amongst Drifters in Japan. Anyway I found this great Aoshima model on HLJ of an A31 Cefiro and I was amazed to see it has full engine detail. Not only is this great for the Cefiro but anyone who is building an R32 GTS-T model will now be able to do an RB20DET engine conversion. I have already ordered one and when it arrives I will show everyone lots of pics and give my opinions on the kit. Here's a pic ENJOY!!!

I didnt think they had any in stock. I might just have to order this instead of the new STi.

Yes i am a "NEW-B" But whats HLJ. Can someone send me a link

I hope they have them in stock. Last time I ordered from HLJ some of my items were back ordered and it took months for them to arrive. Anyway it says the Cefiro is available so hopefully it wont take too long. Just thought I would let you all know that the Cefiro will be painted white with gold BBS rims on it. Can't wait to start this one.

HLJ just stands for Hobby Link Japan. They are an online hobby store with heaps of great models and supplies.

I thought all the High Power Unit kits are still out of stock? Have been for a year or more as I remember!

They come in stock from time to time; I bought my Cefiro earlier this year from HLJ. Excellent kit!

Very nice kit. Aren't Cefiro's FWD nowadays? Its the same car as the Infiniti I35 here in the US, and thats FWD.

HLJ online model status isn't as reliable as you would think. I keep ordering shit thats listed as standard, and they keep telling me its out of stock or something like AFTER I order so I have to play the waiting game. that and the fact that my orders take 7 years to arrive after dumping UPS. YAY.

BOOSTD · 07-31-2003, 05:01 AM

You guys are right the model is on backorder

Oh well good things come to those who wait.

RyanGiorgio The A31 Cefiro was RWD and came with an RB20DET engine. The A32 Cefiro I believe is FWD and is known as the Maxima in the US. Im not sure if it comes turbo or not but I much prefer the older RWD version.

Cheers
