Nissan Skyline GTR, 1/24 by Tamiya, Model Car

About the Nissan Skyline GTR With blistering performance, the Nissan Skyline GT-R has made a welcome come-back to the Japanese motorsports scene. The legendary Skyline GT-R was first created in 1969 as a road-going racer, and immediately won praise from motorsports enthusiasts. In May, 1989, Nissan unveiled a reincarnation of this superlative automobile, 16 years after its previous GT-R. Combined with its refined multi-link suspension geometry, the vehicle minimizes the spin potential during hard competition running. Powerful ventilated disk brakes all-around ensures no fade stopping performance at the track or on the street. The aggressive body styling is sculptured by the massive front and rear blister fenders, front air-dam, and large rear spoiler to obtain downforce performance. The hood and fenders are of aluminum for weight-savings. Packed with Nissan's latest automotive technology, the Skyline GT-R is unquestionably a world class performer. « less
