cant recommend how much fun these things are and its good fun having to build the chassis up and tune the camber.
These look quite good I'm pretty tempted for £30. What do you have to build up, everything?

Me too hence the question
you basically fit the wheels, axels and suspension then the body over the top then fit the wing mirrors and spoiler!
theres a few diff car models if you search takara on ebay!
guaranteed the best fun for messing about indoors

I've never made on eof these before, so really looking forward tu building up the Skyline. What paints/glues etc do I need? I'm guessing Superglue and Halfords paint isn't the way to go

Where do you buy your paints/glues/brushes etc? Can you buy model kit 'kits' with the basic stuff you need.
