This is crazy! I about lost my mind when I saw you polishing the paint and also when you did the '"carpet." Keep up the great work. This is now my favorite channel.
small tip: adding a litte bit of clear/transparent brown or amber paint to the headers after painting them silver adds alot of depth and simualtes the "heat stained" effect
Great custom car. Love the upgrade Bride style seats. The engine swap is trick. I,m currently finishing a stock 2000GTR. I added some spark plug wires with fishing line and some battery leads. I changed from the factory silver to charcoal grey. I cut the trunk lid out and made up some hinges and a channel around the opening from styrene. Some thin soft solder will make a good boot rubber painted flat black. I plan on making a fuel tank to go in tjhe trunk. Your models are top notch.
Worth every minute! I've seen a couple of built of the GT-R but did not expect this kit to be so detailed. Great job on it bro and that engine was the cherry on top to knock it off the park! love it love it! DDE DDE!
I like that you went with black on the trim and bumpers. I did the same with my build on this kit. It's a great kit! I think I'm going to do another one.
Good spot Ricardo, yeah I changed it out after I finished the build, liked these ones more and forgot to mention it in the final reveal. Glad you like the video though, much appreciated
Beautiful and love the engine swap. So clean. What was the silver you used and the clear afterwards? I really like how the color ended up and so glad you went with the black trim. Really great work.
Awesome thanks Ricardo, yes I realised afterwards I should have done a better job at explaining it. I used the original transmission from the kit and used the Engine from an R32 donor kit. Hope that helps 👍🏻

Hey man thanks for a great video 🍻 do you also work on gunpla by any chance?
Thanks man, appreciate the feedback. I dont unfortunately. Mainly scale model cars and bikes
@@autostradamacchina no worries, I thought you might love them as well but these look like a labour of love to make... Thanks for sharing 😊
Beautiful and love the engine swap. So clean. What was the silver you used and the clear afterwards? I really like how the color ended up and so glad you went with the black trim. Really great work.
Thanks man, appreciate the feedback. So the final colour is Zeropaints Anthracite ZP-1296 and the clear is also ZP’s 2K
@@autostradamacchina thanks. I wish zero paints were easy to get here. That silver is perfect. Appreciate the response.
Are those r33 gtr seats? Really neat mod if so!
Amazing model.
So the engine, wheels and seats are from an R32 kit and the brakes were from an R34 kit. Thanks for the feedback though, really appreciate it 💪🏻
Fantastic work!!! Amazing. One question, which kind of "glue" and "dust" did you use for carpets? Thanks
Very cool build, I enjoyed your video a lot. What kind of product did you use around 12:05 for the clear effect on the dashboard quadrants?
Thanks Alex, appreciate that. I used Mr Hobby GX100
😃👏👏👏👏👏👏
cool
Very Nice Model. I got confused with the engine-transmission swap. which transmission you used? which engine you used? Thanks
Awesome thanks Ricardo, yes I realised afterwards I should have done a better job at explaining it. I used the original transmission from the kit and used the Engine from an R32 donor kit. Hope that helps 👍🏻
Great build, what did you soak the chrome parts in?
Its normal household bleach
@@autostradamacchina thank you sir
Shit man.. great video. subbed Great GTR too!
Why does everyone always apply the stickers/decals and then varnish? Always in real life the stickers, brands, model, etc. come after the varnishing.
Over time these decals fade, crack and just generally deteriorate and the only way to preserve them in a good state is to spray clear over the decal
