Looks real good, I'm doing the same with my tamiya 350Z, almost completed, just need to finish the interior and connect the wires to the power source. I think my next kit might be a skyline, thanks for the inspiration!! and again, beautiful job on the R34.

hahah thanks =)
Oh I didn't use batteries, I connected those 8 LEDs with a 24volt transformer <-- is this how u call those biggo blocks u put in the outlet? Cuz hahaha.. I love to watch my Skyline lights on 24/7, so I don't think batteries will last. There are some pics of the LEDs in the Skyline Workshop,.... a little tiny link on the skyline page... hahah or just go here: http://www.tomazws.net/skyline/skyline-workshop.htm

it looks awesome....... just hope that my R32 can match your R34
 those 3mm white/blue LEDs are great.. i didn't found any white LEDs below 5mm where i live.  just one question, maybe two: 1) did you use any resistors?? 2) did you put the front LEDs in series??? Cheers

yea i put a resister in it... forgot how many ohms, my friend gave it to me (it works without it but he said i need it
 )ummm... i put the LEDs in serial order.. like this:  For the 3mm LEDs, I got those from Frys.... don't go to radio shack their smallest one is 0.5cm
