I love a Speed Champions car that knows exactly when to stop smoothing things out. SergioBatista’s LB WORKS Nissan Hakosuka keeps the old Skyline’s boxy attitude intact, then bolts on the full Liberty Walk treatment like it has a track day at noon and a midnight street meet after dinner.
The color blocking does a lot of heavy lifting here. That black nose over the gray hood gives the front end a proper vintage race-car scowl, while the purple fenders, roof, splitter, and rear quarter panels make the whole thing feel custom without turning into a rainbow parts bin explosion. The big white roundels are doing classic livery work, but the purple headlight surrounds and tiny sponsor decals are what really sell the tuner-shop flavor.
The front is especially tasty. The Hakosuka’s squared-off grille can be hard to capture at this scale, but the layered plates and clipped-in bumper bits give it that slightly blunt, old-school Skyline face. Those exposed mirror stalks are wonderfully fiddly in the best way: black bars, clip geometry, and purple caps hanging out there like they are daring you to breathe too hard near the model.
The widebody shaping is the main trick, though. Sergio gets the LBWK stance by pushing visual weight low and outward: chunky wheel arches, a purple front lip, black side skirts, and a rear wing that sits just high enough to look serious without swallowing the roofline. Through the glass, the yellow interior and roll-cage details add a flash of race-prepped chaos. It is a tiny purple bruiser with just enough old Nissan soul peeking through the aero kit.
