it came with those wheels and tires also??

VERY nice build as always :unsure:

Thanks

Actually thinking about it it's not strictly oob as I changed the rims for a different set that were available as a seperate wheel set awhile back - the stretchwall tyres are included in both the kit & the wheel set.

Cheers

Oh man Andy, you know I love this! In my opinion this is my favorite Skyline and love the styling, this is the king of Skylines, I'd love to have one....even in model form! ;)

Oooooh, Andy that is clean! Even back in the day the skyline had a really nice look. Great work!

Chris

what you mean back in the day?? they still do! :P:lol:

yes it is clean

they have stretched tires? what wheels are they?

WOW! that thing looks great in black. a really nice skyline there, andy.

i have built both the aoshima and the fujimi GT-Rs and they present well. yours is outstanding.

One of my favorite Skylines. Always like the cars with the big air dam in the front. Reminds me of the old Trans-Am days.

Even though this car never raced in that series. Very nicely done on the paint. Just a straight black looks really good and the trim really sets it off.

:angry: Well it sure LOOKS GOOD, Whatever it is! It's an old Skyline? Like in Nissan? What year is it? Was it a Jap only model?I'm not really into "Tuners" BUT THAT looks really nice!

Yes, Skyline, yes Nissan and when Datsun was around. The Skyline's been around since the 50's. Probably '72 :P nowadays they have no style :lol:

Yes this was a mianly JDM car but was known worldwide for all the races it won, I think 58 :D

here's a good video of one, turn it up!! GOTTA love a straight six with triple Webers

sequential..shmequential psssh B) when you had no traction and stability control, you learned how to DRIVE and SHIFT :P
