Tamiya R32 GT-R Tubular Front End Kit – 1/24 Scale
Tamiya R32 GT-R Tubular Front End Kit – 1/24 Scale
Description
Transform the Tamiya 1/24 scale Nissan R32 GT-R into a fully exposed drift, pro-touring, or custom engine-swap build with this highly detailed tubular front-end kit from Nineteen 3D.
The system replaces a major portion of the factory front chassis structure with a detailed tube-frame assembly, creating additional room for an RB26, LS-based V8, or other custom engine installation. Choose either a right-hand-drive or left-hand-drive version.

- Firewall and support brackets
- Chassis rails and A-arms
- RB26 engine brace

Scale & Compatibility
Designed primarily for the Tamiya 1/24 scale Nissan R32 GT-R. The included generic components may also support advanced custom applications, but fitment outside the intended Tamiya kit is not guaranteed.
The suspension geometry was developed around 17-inch BlackBoxSTL wheels, and the brakes are designed to work with many BlackBoxSTL wheel designs. Use the LOW suspension components when installing the BlackBoxSTL Pandem widebody conversion.
Important Builder Note
This is an advanced conversion requiring major modification to both the chassis and body. Removing the original structure will leave the model fragile until the tubular cage is securely installed. Careful planning, cutting, alignment, reinforcement, and repeated test-fitting are essential.
This kit is an excellent foundation for a large V8, RB26, drift-car, or custom engine-swap build, but it is intended for experienced builders comfortable with extensive fabrication.
No paint or decals included. Some sanding, trimming, cutting, drilling, fabrication, and test-fitting will be required for best results.
