Question Nismo models

Do any of you know if any model companies make either the Nismo 400R or the R33 Nismo GT-R LM (as featured in Gran Turismo 1+2, I dont know about 3)? I've searched the internet but cant find anything. :cry:

Cheers.

Well, the R33 Nismo GT-R LM is the road version of the Clarion R33 LM car you can get as a Tamiya kit. You can de-decal that kit and it'd be about right. Don't recall a 400R, though...

just take the R33 Nismo GTR from Fujimi and convert it to a 400R.

I'm planning on taking a Eairly version S14 Silvia and putting the Nismo 270R body kit on it

which is what my car in real life looks like

cool

But where can I find decals for the 400r? I've tried the internet and hlj but again, nothing. Oh and how long does it take for something to arrive from hlj if you order over the internet? (to be shipped to england)

Yeah, I would love a 400R! Not seen any decals yet, though scratch building them wouldn't be TOO hard! (Just Hard!!!)
Start with a Fujimi Nismo Skyline and go from there! I plan to get another R33 kit on the way home and do a modded version!
