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.

can i drive it too work mine is out of action

[bnr#@]

Where did you find that? I must have one!!!!

[Bl4cK32]

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)

Holy crap that's AWESOME

[sky30]

Darren- What size (length) is the model?

[Bl4cK32]

The body of the car measures about 19.5 cm long unassembled.

Its 1:24 scale too

How much are they?

[Bl4cK32]

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.

Happy B'day.

Looks nice, when will you get around to putting all the bits together?

Not going to be like the 'real' R32 is it... You know.. that hks manifold sitting shed.... the bonnet and guards that are sitting in the shed.

hehehe lol

Happy B'day.

[Bl4cK32]

Thanks buddy

No this will be put together asap. I can do all the work myself with this one, and not be tempted to upgrade parts along the way

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]

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

[Miss*33]

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.

[Whiplash]

I just got a different brand 32 GTR that i am building up. Mine doesnt have an engine in it though

Here are some pics of a 2004 34 Nismo Race Car that i built last year

[Madaz]

[Whiplash]

don't think there is one of a 33 4 door. I know there is a series 1 33 GTST and all the GTR's from 32 - 34. will keep an eye out though in the other forums

I have been building an R34 GT-R V Spec II lately.

It is the first model I have built for about 8 years! I forgot how fiddly and annoying it can be!

There are some nice looking models there fellas, good work.
