Nissan Skyline GT-R R32

Earned the nickname “Godzilla” in the early 1990s for its domination of touring car championships around the world. Powered by the RB26DETT twin-turbo straight-six and equipped with the advanced ATTESA all-wheel-drive system, the R32 became a motorsport legend, collecting victories in Group A racing and cementing the GT-R’s place in performance history. Its boxy lines and racing pedigree make it one of the most celebrated Japanese cars of its era.

Tamiya’s TT-02 Drift chassis provides the perfect base for a scale version of this icon, configured for controlled slides with hard-compound drift tires and a smooth shaft-driven 4WD layout. Durable, tunable, and widely supported with aftermarket upgrades, the TT-02 Drift combines reliability with an accessible learning curve, making it a strong choice for RC drifters recreating classic JDM legends.

This build features the unmistakable R32 GT-R body mounted on the TT-02 Drift chassis, blending timeless styling with modern RC performance. The setup emphasizes the car’s wide stance and aggressive presence while delivering stable, controllable drifting dynamics. It’s both a tribute to the original Godzilla’s motorsport dominance and a stylish addition to any drift-oriented RC collection.
