Smile *Project Extreme NISMO 350Z Super Z Tune*

I had an idea to convert Tamiya's JGTC Z to an extreme tuned street version and to apply the NISMO color scheme. It will have stock interior from the 350Z street car and 4 rear tires from the stock Z. Seats are from Porsche GT3.

The body is painted with Cobra Colors Nissan Aluminum Metallic, various SMS carbon decals cut for wing and interior, hood vents. Wheels are painted semi gloss black, interior with Acryl Interior Black and Guards Red. Decals are from Aoshima's NISMO R34 kit and the etch set is by Tamiya.

Toning down the body just a bit for street purposes I got rid of the racing fuel fillers on both sides then drilled a hole for a single one on the drivers side.






Also filled the slot on the front where the pull hook was and the air fitting hole, and the indentions in the rear 'window'. You'll notice the white body hood vents etc. are different because it's the Xavani car, the one I modded is the Calsonic body.








Inspiration:

No, I considered putting a rear window in but it required more work than I wanted...also the stock windshield will not work in these race bodies.
