The word ‘legendary’ is overused in the car world, but it’s fair to say that the Calsonic Nissan Skyline GT-R, that won the Spa 24 Hours and three Australian Group A championships, is a modern legend. It’s the car that earned the GT-R the ‘Godzilla’ nickname.

Enter the Nismo GT-R. In 1990, Nissan marketed 500 limited edition GT-Rs under the Nismo banner. Nismo was Nissan's motorsports and aftermarket division. The biggest difference between the stock GT-R and the Nismo was that the latter had a metallic turbocharger instead of a ceramic one. Nissan developed the car as a Group A racer, entrusting it to drivers Masahiro Hasemi and Kazuyoshi Hoshino.

For the Calsonic GTR-r32, Tomica published the first edition in 1989 and which was made in Japan. In recent years, there are some diecast car manufacturers produce the GTR-32 with the Calsonic tampo, such as Kyosho, Inno64, and the MiniGt.

The TomyTec includes a movable car hood and detailed engine. But the selling price is higher than the other brands. In addition, the rims look too thick at all.
