Aoshima Leyton House Skyline R30


Recommended Posts

Nice Kit. Easily goes together, plenty of detail, scope for adding more.

 

What's not OOB:

 

1) Fuel fillers (scratchbuilt)
2) Shut-off handles in bonnet corner (scratchbuilt)
3) Bonnet pins (scaleproduction)
4) Boot pins (scaleproduction)
5) Tow hooks front and rear (scaleproduction)
6) Roof mini-arial (scratchbuilt)
7) Couple of cables on the underside. (scratchbuilt)
8 ) Door mirrors. Not the best fit but better than the road-car stock ones that came with it. These are from the Aoshima Drift parts pack.

 

The rear spoiler was in the box, but was not meant for this kit. I think it looks better however.

That's pretty! I didn't even know this kit existed, and you've done a neat job on it! :thumbsup:

 

Typical Fujimi ride height though - it looks to be set up as a forest rally car rather than a race car!

 

Looks really nice though!

Ooops, just seen it's an Aoshima kit! Sorry Fujimi...!! :)

Nicely done. A ride height drop would really set it off like on the box photo.  The chassis weathering is also beautifully done.... although I'm not sure if a professional racing team like Leyton House/Impul would have a rusty muffler on their race cars 😅

Looks nice.  Glad to see that Aoshima managed to spell the sponsor right on the decals....  Has been known to go wrong there too (looking at you Wave Benetton B193 & Fujimi BMW M3).

 

Very nicely finished indeed, and agree with Dougboy, it would only be honest dirt from the event day/weekend underneath.
