A tuning version of the Silvia S110 in the body of a coupe, with an FJ20E engine from the court atelier of Nissan - IMPUL company.
An old set from the early 80s with very poor detail, a disgusting bottom and a bunch of problems. According to the scheme, the wheels offsets is badly configured - the front ones are too recessed, and the rear, on the contrary, does not fit into the arches. I had to play with bushings of different sizes. Terrible stitching, some of the recesses are not there at all, had to be cut through again. The front spoiler stood up with a huge pull. It seems to be a simple set, but it is very difficult to assemble and you can only assemble it perfectly by very much overworking.
Features - partial glazing (no side windows), aluminum tube for exhaust nozzle, compartment for two AA batteries and outlets for light bulbs in the headlights area. The set has the ability to select the height of the suspension. Cool Impul discs from the set.
The color X-2 is from Tamiya. Painting of the body, interior and bottom in accordance with the real car. I used Tamiya weathering on the bottom and exhaust.
Airbrush painting.
All Tamiya and Gunze alcohol paints, Gunze varnish, Gunze rinse, Revell + Tamiya Craft Bond glue.
Hand polishing from 6000 to 10000 with GodHand sponges and Tamiya finishing polish
