Building the 1995 Nissan Skyline R33 GT-R

This is the build process of the Tamiya 1/24 scale 1995 Nissan Skyline R33 GT-R 4WD 2.6L inline 6-cylinder turbo.

What influenced me with this car was the sheer amount of JDM R33 Skyline coupes where I am driven by the local boyracer community - and that I had already built THREE of its R32 Skyline predecessor.

And while it has a family look to its R32 predecessor, it is actually slightly larger, particularly at the front. Unfortunately, unlike the Tamiya Skyline R32 GT-R, this one did not come with engine detail.

Soundtrack is Origa - "Rise" (2004) from "Ghost in the Shell"

when you spray paint do you have to use primer please please tell me

[joh2]

@xDRiiFTzx1 I recommend that you do, otherwise the spray paint may react badly with the plastic.

very nice model, did it come with the interior prepainted?

[joh2]

@thucster5 Thankyou! The interior was moulded in a generic grey colour and I sprayed it black to contrast with the white bodywork. You don't see this in the vid, but when I originally did the interior tub the black paint reacted badly, and cracked, hence I had to strip it back to bare plastic in brake fluid before respraying it again.
