Tamiya 1/24 Nissan Fairlady 240Z Street Custom Plastic Model Kit

Nissan’s “Z car” was a hit at home and overseas following its 1969 debut, and in 1971 its line-up was further bolstered by the 240Z, which paired that classic long nose, short deck body with a 150hp 2.4-liter inline-six engine.

About the Model

• Length: 172mm, width: 71mm, height: 52mm.
• The 240Z is depicted with popular customizing parts from its heyday.
• The model can also be assembled as a Datsun 240Z, as seen in the North American market.
• Its 2,393cc inline-six SOHC engine and triple carburetors are rendered realistically and can be viewed under the opening hood.
• The car is depicted with lowered suspension.
• RS Watanabe wheels are a 2-part design for an easier paint job.

The nose is a newly-designed component. Compare it here with the “G-nose” 240ZG, also a part of our 1/24 scale Sports Car Series. This customized car features stacked rear exhausts. 8-spoke RS Watanabe wheels are a fitting addition to the model. The bonnet opens to let you check out the engine and its aluminum air funnels. These are the new parts in the kit.
