In Progress* NISMO 380RS Competition

For this one I am combining Tamiya's NISMO Fairlady Z and their JGTC Z kits.

I'm making something close to the 380RS Competition shown at the 2006 Tokyo Auto Salon. It will have a full race interior and similar graphics to the real car.

So far I have chopped up a SAS Skyline resin hood and dissected the vents into four sections. Marked lines on the hood and cut holes for the vents. I also filled the stock fuel door and drilled a hole for a dry break fitting. The 'B' pillar has been removed and the rear side window opening adjusted to accept the blank window panel from the race Z kit. The side view mirror mounting panels have also been removed and the locating holes drilled for the race mirrors.

Interior is assembled and some decals have been placed.
