Introducing: The Meanest Looking Custom Built Skyline R34 GTR 1/7th Scale Remote Control RC Car

Passion, It's the thing that drives us to achieve. The push we feel to dare to dream something, ideal, and then manifest that vision into reality. For anyone who's ever fallen head over heels into an engine bay, or body work, or getting your car track ready, YOU KNOW that feeling that drives you to customize and make things as you feel they should be. Your intuition is second to none.  RC Car Skyline GTR R34 Custom Built Remote Control Car This GTR is no different from any of the other incredible cars featured on this site ( just look around; there's red ones , blue ones , silver ones , white ones , black ones ) - except for one, small, detail. - It's 1/7th the size! You wouldn't be able to fit inside it, but it still rips around like a GTR should, and is a whole lot of fun to drive I'm sure, and the customization on this build is phenomenal.  Nissan Skyline GTR RC Car Rear End Spotted on the RC sub, user XJuggernaut101 shared their build story with us of ho

Now here's a prime example of passion driving dedication to produce a build of exquisite caliber and quality. From a story that no doubt, many of you can relate to in your own way of striving to complete a goal in the face of adversity, along with that oh so familiar feeling of wanting, Just a little more power... Take a minute to check out the story behind Jay Dao's Mitsubishi Evo and enjoy while you momentarily live vicariously through the thought of what, 700 wheel horse power really feels like in an all wheel drive car, as light as that.

"I got the car when I came back from deployment back in 06. When I first started modding, I always wanted to wipe the smirk off people's faces thinking their car was fast lol. Now as I get older, its more of a goal in life to finish something I started. To me it's more engine porn than horsepower. Looking at all the welds, time spent planning and building. Once it all comes together it's like a movie that was filmed and now everyone gets to enjoy it."

Jay and his sister were raised by their Mother, in a setting where due to circumstances beyond their control, the father was not supportive and fostered negativity in a bad environment and projected impending doom and failure without him. Needless to say, Jay (now a Software Engineer) and his Sister (a Biochemist) have actually done quite well for themselves! Jay has been saving up and buying parts for the last six years for this build, which he has been patiently awaiting the completion of for a long time coming.

"I did what everyone should never do. I made an excel sheet of what everything cost + the car. I think I'm at around 70k usd or so. Not too bad over 6 years. At one point I debated on selling everything off and just saving money. After some consideration and talking to fellow big build owners, I decided to just finish it up or I would regret it."

This is a bold strategy and one that I can tell you leads to immense happiness upon completion, the classic "All-in" on your dream goals, hard work never leaves you feeling disappointed.

"As much as I would like to say I race competitively, its more of a street car... I will be taking it to events and shows... In a Japanese car, I can't tell you how many times people have egged me on to launch it but don't get very many street races. They just look at the car... but one time I've had a r6 with his group of friends egg me on. I can say that I put about 5 car lengths on him on the free way."

The Power: "The motor is going back in this week with the forward facing manifold. The last car with a smaller turbo made 670whp. I should be over 700. It's going to be a built 2.0L on a Forward facing twin scroll T4 6265. My old turbo manifold was a twin scroll and I had 2 wastegates lol. 30 to 35 psi. Ecu controlled boost controller via gm 3 port."
