4dr GTS-T Skyline Progress

[ATMDC]

this is one out of 11 cars i got for x-mas

sorry i didnt start the progress sooner, i had been busy werkin on it, dont ask about the paint, my dumb self was painting in the super cold garage and was rushing the paint a lil bit so i wrinkled some, so i might strip it and start that over, but so far i have finished the interior and i just need to finish lowering the front...


that spot in the passenger seat is just where the light caught a scratch cause in the next pic its gone





sorry bout the picture quality, its 3am just about

OOOo niiice!!
i wish i had a digi camera =(

[ATMDC]

you can have mine lol its crappy, pictures look too pixely and it doesnt have a resolution setting

[TanKaBoY]

lol, id take any!!, to me that digi camera is good.
if i did have a digi camera, i could post up progress of Kyoko's FD RX-7 from initial D. Its still being sent over, but should be here sooon.

Looks nice & clean, great choice of rims!! I think it would be a good idea of re-painting it.

[ATMDC]

those are the rims that came with it, i took these pics on the same day i painted it, i just waited till it was dry to the touch, so after a week, ima try to sand it smooth, but if it dont work then its back to the drawing board, does brake fluid strip duplicolor by the way?

Looks great! I used those wheels on my grocery getter accord, and yes I've used brake cleaner to strip duplicolor.

Is it your camera or do you have loads of orange peel on the car?

[primera man]

Nice colour choice but has alot of orange peel in it from the cold painting.

very nice, i like the four door variants of the skyline, family car coolness.

looks like 18" exxel ennio rims, they look fantastic, i cant wait to see this model completed

[ex-r]

Nice start. One thing though, are the side skirts on the wrong way? Nice ride height. It's not actually that low from out of the box is it?

[ImolaEK]

Wow, put that thing in some Brake Fluid DOT3 fast! Those Advan Model 5's came with that kit???Man Aoshima wheels kick ass! Those Advan's look 1 million times better than Fujimi's.

I used auto-zone DOT 4, DOT 3 works fine, but thats just what I had lying around from my last brake job. Just let it soak for about 45min-1 hour and use a old tooth brush to scrub it with, and the paint will fall right off. I believe there is a detailed step by step in the "how to" section so check it out before you start.
