Default Kyosho Mini-Z 350Z

Hey, not sure if this is the right forum for this but I just picked up one of those Kyosho Mini-Zs and it looks sweet. I just had to share this cause the little think kicks ***. I know they're prob old news to some folks here but I thought I'd share.

Thanks for posting this! I had 1/10 scale cars growing up. I ordered the Mini-Z 350z and its really fun - probably more so than the larger cars because you can run it inside. Also the level of detail on the body and even wheels is amazing. I will probably get some ball bearings and a faster motor next. I also have my eye on the 2005 Nismo Test Car Autoscale body -- Its a black racing 350Z. I'm pretty sure I've seen picture of the car that was the inspiration for the model on this site. I might also have to get an AWD -- looks like there are a couple overseas sites that are selling a GTR model, and coming soon / preorder for the US. My wife likes driving it around so having two we can race against each other will be fun.

Is that a 1/10 scale model? I like it.

Right now I have these two 1/32 scale toys on my desk at work:

I have about two dozen 1/18 die-cast cars in boxes at home. I need to put up some new shelves to set them up right.

I also have about half-a-dozen non-Nissan models on my cubicle shelf, too.

MarvinMartian, The car is 1/27 scale according to Kyosho.
Cool, thanks.

Yea, I do need spacers on it. They actually sell wheels in different widths and offsets...lol. And there are plenty of mods for the motor/suspension/batteries too. These little fockers are fast!
