Need some help...
Posted by Mr_Synister on Tuesday, June 23, 2009 8:57 PM
Alright I did a google search and really didn't find anything. I am looking for a Nissan 240sx model, preferably the S13 chassis (1989-1994). Does anyone know where I could purchase one?

There are two that have the same body style that I've seen.  Both are marked as 180SX but they're the same car so yeah.  Theres a Tamiya and Fujimi kit. 

http://www.etamiya.com/shop/tamiya-89727-tamiya-124-nissan-180sx-p-10000650.html  <-- Tamiya Kit

http://cgi.ebay.com/NISSAN-180SX-1989-1-24-MODEL-KIT-FUJIMI-JAPAN_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp3286Q2em20Q2el1116QQhashZitem53db6d7637QQitemZ360163669559QQptZLHQ5fDefaultDomainQ5f0QQsalenotsupported <-- Fujimi Kit. (sorry couldn't find it at all cept eBay)

I don't have any experince with either kit.  I do own the Fujimi kit and I can say it looks nice in the box but its not on my high to build list.  Then again Tamiya is ususally a great maker, but I dunno much about Fujimi.  

Both come with dashes for Japanese 180SX and US 240SX and both are curbside models.  Ultimately the Tamiya one is cheaper, by about half, even with shipping.

 

Hope this helps out!
