  1. Looking good so far, I have this one to build, I heard it has a lot of fit issues
  2. I would of said, both please
  3. Thats how the stores are all set up here in the Valley, the registers are not computers, just plain old cash registers
  4. Thanks for the pics, I found the kit just as easy on ebay, there are a few of them, the link I posted is for it .
  5. What are the plans for this one?
  6. Mike, how is the chassis detail, typical curbside detail?
  7. I have 01 Maxima, and there are some very close kits out there of the Japanese verison, but it would take a lot of work to make the nose and tail into a Maxima The G35 is based of the 350Z platform
  8. Oh I dont mind at all, its still a Japanese car I found the kit Jason is talking about,(I think) but no good pics of the wheels other then the box art http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fujimi-1-24-Toyota-Celica-XX-/320813456418?pt=Model_Kit_US&hash=item4ab1f8dc22
  9. The link I was going to give would be pointless, the only set they have instock is not what you want. I am going to watch the movie the movie again to see the wheels http://pics.imcdb.org/0is694/ff000334c03.4159.jpg
  10. I have to agree
  11. Chris, I want to do that one as well, what set of wheels are on the movie version If you dont mind buying stuff from Japan, I know online hobby shop that has all the Fujimi Watanabe wheels sets selling for around $7
  12. Its Tamiya Skyline 2000 GTR, pulled it out from the stash, pretty much plan on keeping it stock, going to change the wheels , the kit comes with steel wheels, but going to change them out for a set of Watanabe wheels . I had started getting the body painted but my string of bad luck with painting struck this build , and I am trying to strip the Tamiya paint Here is some work done on the engine and exhaust I am waiting for my new micro drill bits to get here so I can drill out the holes for the plug wires I cut off the small exhaust tips, not sure which one I am going to go with
  13. Chuck, I was wrong on FB with my question on what this was, not even close, I said Chaser I bought four sets of the XS tunning wheels/tires, they are nice, but I agree, they do seem a bit small, I have not found anything to use them on yet
  14. Yeah x3 different builds, its just been really frustrating, but whats adding to it, is trying to strip Tamiya paint, its a pain
  15. Well LG, its nice to see you back, I am thinking about giving it up myself
  16. Thats some good info, like I said, I plan on getting both, but I want to get the SA first, then it will be the GTO Rob, I enjoy a good Ferrari build as well, but I did to many in row, need a break, now if I could get my hands on the 250 California, I would be building that one right away
  17. One word Cheap I really dont know, I burned my self out on Ferrari builds, so I am not really wanting do anymore for the time being, who knows I , I might not wait. I want the SA more then the GTO
  18. Planning getting both, but I think I will wait tell they US rebox them
  19. Its people being to darn lazy to do it themselves
  20. I just about fell out chair when I saw you started a WIP thread
  21. I think it might be, there might be a vaccine you can get
  22. In my case, I had a Tempo, and among the many problems it had, one of them was once the speed hit around 50 mph, there was no acceleration, the engine would still be running, I would have to bring the car to a complete stop before i could continue on my way. That became a big problem on the freeway
  23. I agree, but this has turned into what cars or what decades of cars people hate , although a lot of the cars that have been listed, are junk
