For those who are too lazy to futz with glue/paint.

I expect $150 - $200!

I'll take one in silver :D

Where can we get these from?

This is Andrew's silver 34:

Not due for release until June.

$142.50 at current exchange rates, I expect $200 from any GST paying store.

I'm quite fond of the little s2000, a snip at $110 (smaller, older car).

Bah! These are such expensive toys.

Ebbro far and away the most accurate metal models for the price.

They cannot be compared to AutoArt or whatever models you might seen for $30 or so.

Even this 34 is slightly inaccurate in some areas.

The only better ones I've seen are handmade European models that run $250+ and are one-offs.

On a slightly different note, I just bought a Tamiya Skyline GT-R V-Spec (plastic) from Toyworld for $25, reduced from $40. Part of their Xmas layby sale.

Ive havent tried building a model since i was in primary school. I have a horrible feeling the paints are going to cost more than the kit. =p

Autoart ones are around $100 for the 1:18 scale. With the 1:18 you can see the detail alot better than the 1:24 and all the parts operate alot better.

    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
    • Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
