Tamiya 1/12th scale Z

[Ron Carter]

I have one of these signed by Mr. K. Still in its original plastic. I cut out a square out in the plastic for Mr. K to sign when he was here visting 10+ years ago. I figured one day I would build it as a copy of my car.

However the right offer would take it off my hands, as ABC has come out with a RC version of my BRE replica and I have the current Diecast model of my Z too.

I am interested in the rally version. Is that the one you have? There are plenty of the ZG kits still available.

Didn't realize there were so many model builders on the site :-) I've got about 600 or so kits in total, I've got this kit as well, and want to convert it to a standard 240Z configuration (so I can make a model of my car). If anyone finds a link to a conversion set, please let me know!

G'day Five&dime..:cheeky:

I was just thinking (looking for more ideas..) and wondered if you may be a member here..

Man, thank you for your very kind credits regarding my build..

I started a thread here some time ago, but never got back to update it for the guys.. sorry gang.

Now I can keep track of your build here as well..

Maybe I saw that conversion kit on ebay? I know it is out there somewhere. I think a team effort in finding the conversion kit is in order.

My wife teases me all the time that if I die the first things she is do is sell my Tamiya kit collection and My G35 sport coupe (that never leaves the garage). I have no interest in selling my kit collection. I have a clear body Farrari that is awesome. I think I am missing the Texico McClaren and the Mantra. I miss the Mom and Pop model shops in Japan.

Ok let's find that conversion kit and make a run on it.

I sniped the Tamiya 1/12 Safari Z last night for $66 on eBay!!!! I can't believe it!!! Now looking forward to creating one car from both kits. Without the G nose.

ha, I was watching that kit on ebay as well... forgot to bid... I had seen a converson kit on ebay years ago ('04-'05?) the kit had the LHD dash, headlight buckets, lower pan, bumper, steering raack, and other various items to make a LHD S30. I have 3 of the kits 1 G-nose and 2 Safari Z's that had been built years ago and are in rough shape, Ive been working to "restore" those kits.

Let me know if you ever want to sell the completed kits. Could always use spare parts

I am off to work now...but I might have saved that conversion kit on my ebay admin page. Let me check when I get home....kicking myself for not buying it when available anyway.

Hello five&dime,

I try to upload pictures of 240ZGs. People were able to buy Grand prix Maroon/White/Red in 240ZG.

PS just in case,the last 3 pictures are NISMO owned racing Z powered by LY engine.

Low funds are forcing me to sell my kits. I listed them on eBay together for $95 BIN +$25 shipping. For both Tamiya 1/12 ZG & Safari car. That is a DEAL!!! I cannot access the bay from work so if their is any interest, search eBay for Tamiya Z or Tamiya 1/12 etc.
