The Tuned Car is Aoshima's 1/24 scale plastic model series for specific aftermarket tuning packages. The most recent entries are an MCR-spec BNR34 Skyline GT-R, kit No. 71, scheduled for January 2027 at 3,410 yen, and a reissue of the Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu FD3S RX-7 '02, which marks the 20th anniversary of the TV anime and opens preorders at 4,400 yen against a reference price of 5,720 yen.
The Tuned Car is a plastic model series from Aoshima that develops custom cars in 1/24 scale. The line takes specific aftermarket tuning packages and turns them into kits. Kit numbering runs through the series: the MCR BNR34 Skyline GT-R '02 is kit No. 71.
Two entries define the current state of the line. The MCR BNR34 Skyline GT-R '02 carries MCR-spec parts including a front bumper spoiler, front canards, aero hood, aero door mirrors, GT wing, and muffler, plus 19-inch Enkei NT03+M wheels. It is priced at 3,410 yen and scheduled for January 2027. Separately, Aoshima is reissuing The Tuned Car 1/24 Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu FD3S RX-7 '02, a licensed kit tied to the 20th anniversary of the TV anime broadcast. The reissue adds clear stickers alongside water-transfer decals for beginners, and it is an air suspension custom spec that allows ride height, camber angle, and steering angle to be changed after assembly. Preorders are open on Rakuten Books at 4,400 yen, against a reference price of 5,720 yen.
Both stories describe kits built around adjustable, tuner-specific specs rather than stock vehicles. The RX-7 reissue pairs a licensed anime property with the series format, while the Skyline entry shows the line continuing to add numbered aftermarket builds. The RX-7 preorder price sits below its listed reference price.
