Specifically a body that can be used on R/C's. That would be so cool. I've read up that you can use epoxy to model it but after that i have no idea what to do next.

Idea's anyone?

Thanks.

 

I wonder if HPI would make a custom mold...that would be pretty cool and add a Stillen kit on it or something like that....man that'd be nice!

 

No kidding!

I've asked a scale model builder who imports hobby kits from HongKong if he can find a body for the Maxima. Unfortunately he couldn't though.

Hmm.. HPI... they make sweet kits. I wonder ....

 

i am making a replica of my car into a 60 hp gas rc car. i'm using a body of an accord and some puddy, then sparay paint to cover and some handy art work!

 

Sweet! Got pics?

 

that was my thought right there....I'm sure since HPI makes bodies of "popular" sdeans (such as '00 Accord body, etc.), it wouldn't hurt for them to make a 4th or 5th gen body....I'm hopefully gonna get a Super Nitro RS4 this summer(although I wanted it since last year ), wouldn't mind having a sweet looking Maxima body(especially a 3rd gen body would be off the hook!!!) I'm gonna email them and see what they say.....

 

Yes, a 3rd Gen model kit (I don't do RC) would be sweet.... but probably expensive All I've ever seen are ooogly UK-trim die-cast models for display purposes or something on eBay.

 

i've seen a 3rd gen one, it was pearl white. it was on ebay. i've seen a few on there, but they're very rare. i've never seen other generation maximas though.

btw, i just won this 300ZX model on ebay, but mine will be white:

The company Kyosho makes an amazing 300zx 1:18 scale model. It has carpet and real nice detail. The price should be between $59-79 depending on the color (some are discontinued).

yeh i seen those. i like the 1:18 size, but that's just too much money.

 

it only cost you 25 in japan last time i saw it =(

 

hoo boy here we go again. No one makes a diecast or model of anything but the 3rd gen RB20DET Cefiro. I have the model kit of that, but I haven't had time to put it together. It's a level 5 or something...crazy detail.

If there were some way to get models made, it would require a large investment of $. I tried to get a pettition going to Nissan USA for a 4th gen model, but no one really showed interest.
