Tamiya 24087 1/24 Nissan 300ZX Turbo Model Kit

Build the fourth-generation Nissan 300ZX Turbo, also known as the Z32, with this detailed 1/24 scale Tamiya plastic model kit. The sleek sports car featured a removable T-bar glass roof and a 280 hp, 3-litre V6 twin-turbo engine.

Since it was first introduced in 1969, the Nissan Motor Company's "Z" car has set standards for everyone else to follow. February 1989 saw the debut of the fourth generation model, whose pinnacle was the 300ZX. Also known, as the Z32, this car had an elegant, wide body with a removable glass top based around a "T-bar" frame; power was provided by a 280hp 3-liter V6 twin turbo engine in combination with either a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic. Its Super HICAS system employed a viscous limited slip differential and four-wheel steering, which was paired with four-wheel independent suspension; packed with driver-friendly features and possessing considerable power and looks, this was a model truly worthy of the famed "Z" car line.

This is a 1/24 scale plastic model assembly kit. Length: 180mm. The sleek, powerful form is captured in style. This model features detailed depictions of the 280hp V6 twin cam, twin turbo engine and its turbochargers and intercoolers. The engine hood is molded in clear plastic, and if so desired can be left unpainted to show off the finished engine bay underneath. The "T bar" roof lets you take a good look at the interior. Parts are included for right- and left-hand drive dashboard and instrumentation panel. Excellent detail on the chassis underside and suspension. Realistic synthetic rubber tires. Decals are included to recreate instrumentation and emblems.
