Bl4cK32 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 they buy u what u want *big hugs to the other half* Inside the box - Parts laid out - the body (fresh out the box unpainted still)- close up of parts - the instructions - I bought some paints i didnt have so i can paint it soon (ive done models in the past). The detail is pretty good, it has a full interior (dash etc.) and rubber wheels etc...i can paint it my choice of colour, but im going for the metallic black. i'll post pics of the build.

Bl4cK32 Posted March 27, 2006 Author Share Posted March 27, 2006 I bought mine from Hobby Habit on Main Nth Road. They have a large range of others (which ive got my eye on) including 33gtr's, Pennzoil Nizmo, Calsonic, 34's, 180's, gtst 33's, silvias (s13/s15). The damn paint costs about the same as the model was to buy, but if you have built some in the past it works out u only need a few colours at a time. Go to the tamiya website to see the full catalogue. Oh yer, Hobby Habbit have one i saw im getting next - The Homer (includes a small homer) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/111262-bithrday-prezzies-56k-sucks/#findComment-2051435 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deluxe Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 How much are they? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/111262-bithrday-prezzies-56k-sucks/#findComment-2051882 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bl4cK32 Posted March 27, 2006 Author Share Posted March 27, 2006 How much are they? The model as you see it is about $34 If you dont have the paint, it becomes expensive, as it uses 18 different colours. I only had to buy a few colours as ive done previous models in the past, and the more kits u buy later, the less paint u need to buy.

savage GTR Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Nice present, looks nice. I thought I would let you know that I have a !/12 scale nizmo R32GTR model. It has rubber tyres, working steering, mesh grill, hinged doors,turbo's brake disc's and even metalic badges . I have been to lazy lately to even start to assmble. lol This one was $300 though and limited to a few hundred models. I got it for my birthday to.{two years ago}This one is mainly assemble with screws and springs and will take time to assemble {many hours} .Its about 375mm long. Got it from complete hobbies main north rd brahma lodge. I have other models to finish first 1\32 A10 thuderbolt , 1\35 apache helicopter etc . If you want a look, I might be able to post pic's or maybe catch up with ya so you can have a look. Any way nice present!

Bl4cK32 Posted March 27, 2006 Author Share Posted March 27, 2006 That sounds cool savage, definitly post pics. I probably couldnt justify spending $300 on a model though, id have to spend it on my lifesize scale one instead Cool that u scored it as a present though Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/111262-bithrday-prezzies-56k-sucks/#findComment-2052797 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss*33 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Straightline Automotive on Port Road also has these Tamiya models, I think he has a couple of 32 GTRs down there at the moment. They sold like hot cakes at the last Extreme Horsepower show. He also has some of the Initial D already built black 32 GTRs which are pretty hard to find if you can't be bothered building one up.
