Amazing work once again gg, I hope to build this kit one day.

Beautiful work, and such a small scale!

Oh boy just when I thought I could stop buying model kits (said none of us ever), I’m actually really happy they did this,as the Fujimi kits seem a little wonky. I’ll more than likely buy this kit

Yeah we need a new round of dtm heroes and group C produced, the prices are getting pretty bad. @davi great work once again, I’ll take note of the clear coat issue and try to use something other than tam for my c9 because the two really do not pair well, I too learned this on a previous model.

I’m honestly so glad to see this kit being built, I saw this car race on tv when I was just a kid, it was on our 18” bubble tv, we had just gotten “cable” tv and I was hooked on the speed channel. You’ll make this thing a beauty no doubt!

I recognize this kit as one that I had attempted when I was 14 let’s just say it was WAY too much for 14 year old me, and ended up just being parts in a parts bin. Yours however is beautiful, I loved how the doors, hood, and trunk opened, not many kits do all at once.

Man that’s nice, it came out very well! My mind is changed on the interior color!

Exactly, perfectly stated.

So beautiful! That engine bay looks superb

The first one is my latest long term build of a sangam midnight car driven by Reina, it uses the brakes from the nismo kit and the small spoiler, along with USCP 18inch bbs LMs And this is the aforementioned mostly stock gtr with 18inch nismo LMGT1s from zoomon, they have a turned aluminum barrel and are too deep so require a lot of grinding and cutting to make work.

No the red one was my first r32 and I just painted the stock wheels semi gloss black, overall I love this car, but it requires a few iterations to get it just right with many wheel/tire revisions. I think the “custom” wheels that come with the nismo r32 are 18inch, then they give you a tire with a high profile so it just looks disproportionate, if they had given us a lower profile tire to work with we’d probably not see this as wonky looking. In short, I too noticed how odd the wheels looked and just said nope. Sorry for that long winded response 😂

If you don’t mind me posting a picture I’ll show you what I’ve done, but I put zoomon 18inch LMgt1s and lowered it by glueing them in place, they lose their function but, alas it’s not like we’re playing with these things 😂

I’m going to have to try your method for the wheels, I spent a while trying to match volk bronze by mixing a bunch of tamiya colors in a separate bottle, and here you’ve achieved a better result great work!

I too had an issue with the overall size of the wheels and tires on this same kit, so I went a different route in the end.

Honestly… what an amazing return you’ve made, your work is impeccable and the quality is superb. I loved that you linked your shop build, I felt like I was actually in the tiny tuner shop looking at all the details! Seriously I know I’m just shouting what everyone else here thinks. Bravo.
