Tamiya 24145 - 1/24 Nissan Skyline GT-R V. Spec Retro Build Kit  [24145]

Recreating the Icon: Tamiya 24145 1/24 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec

The Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec stands as a defining sports car from the early 1990s. This Tamiya 1/24 scale kit captures the spirit of the 1995 GT-R, celebrated for its engineering and racing success. The real car used a 2.6-liter inline-six with twin turbochargers, rated at about 280 horsepower, which helped cement its reputation on the track.

On the racing scene the GT-R proved dominant at events such as the Macao Grand Prix and endurance races like Spa Francorchamps. The V-Spec variant featured the ATTESA E-TS PRO torque distribution system for improved grip. This model kit lets builders recreate the car's muscular lines and purposeful stance with accurate detail.

Assembly Notes and Display Appeal

Model makers will find the Tamiya 24145 offers satisfying assembly with well-detailed components reproducing the V-Spec cues, including the adjustable rear spoiler and Brembo-style brakes. The multi-link suspension and prominent air intakes are faithfully represented, making the finished model an attractive display piece for any shelf or diorama.
