About the Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R KPGC10 #15 K. Takahashi Nissan Works JTCC 1972 Kyosho 1:18
TL;DR: Kyosho's 1:18 diecast Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R KPGC10 reproduces Kunimitsu Takahashi's #15 Nissan Works entry from the 1972 Japanese touring car season. Diecast construction captures the "Hakosuka" generation GT-R that dominated early Japanese circuit racing.
The KPGC10, known affectionately among enthusiasts as the Hakosuka, built the GT-R name's early racing reputation, and Kunimitsu Takahashi's factory Nissan drives during this period remain a genuine touchstone in Japanese motorsport history.
Diecast Detail on an Early GT-R Racing Livery
The KPGC10's boxy, upright touring car silhouette and factory Nissan Works graphics come through with real clarity in Kyosho's 1:18 diecast, a manufacturer with a long-standing specialization in Japanese motorsport subjects. The #15 numbering and period sponsor markings are printed with the precision needed to make this specific historic livery recognizable rather than generic. Panel gaps around the boxy fenders and roofline stay tight, reflecting the straightforward, purposeful shape that made this generation of GT-R such a dominant touring car in its era.
A Cornerstone Piece for GT-R Racing Heritage
For collectors tracing the GT-R nameplate's competition roots, the KPGC10 represents the foundation everything since has built upon, decades before the modern R32 through R35 generations continued that racing reputation on a global stage. Displayed at the start of a GT-R generational timeline, this piece anchors the story in its genuine historical starting point. Takahashi's involvement adds further weight for collectors who follow specific drivers across Japanese motorsport history.
