Before you get to excited, it's only a model.....

I found this on Ebay, while looking for a model FTO for my partner, and thought you guys would like it. I haven't got mine yet because it comes from Japan, but I should have it soon.

The store of Ebay has other ones as well, like the WRX, Porshe Carrera, FTO, Supra, Evo V

if your looking for model kit cars overseas has more variety and costs about the same to ship them than buying here too

they are actually pretty fun to put together and paint as you are doing it

atm im 1/4 the way through a 1/12 scale 1957 chev belair coupe.... the thing is like 40cms long lol

I got a few Tamiya kits, R32 GTR x 2, R34 GTR V-Spec II with optional Nismo wheels, V-Spec II Nur sticker, exhaust tip, spoiler stems.

Toyota Supra x 1

Honda S2000 x 1

Nissan Silvia S15 (Fujimi Brand)

Mitsubishi Lancer EVO VII HKS Kansai Version (Fujimi Brand)

Die Cast models are best made from Auto Art.

Fujimi make more variety of aftermarket model cars ie, HKS, Veilside etc.

They also make aftermarket wheels and metal mufflers.

And they produce scale 1/12 model kits as well.

Awesome Charles, you got a Z-Tune.

I am thinking about getting 1 too but either painting it White or Millennium Jade like the Nur...

Cuz I want a Nur but with the Z-Tune kit on it... Like so...

I even got the metal itch-set for it too lol.

But the thing is, I somehow melted the dash board of it, so I'm planning to buy a complete new kit, so I can replace the dash lol.

WTF!

How did you melt it? :)

How much did the Z-Tune set you back and where did you get it from?

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
