Hot Wheels PREMIUM Boulevard 150 Nissan Skyline GT-R (R32) Pandem

The Hot Wheels Nissan Skyline GT-R (R32) Pandem, catalog number JHW41, is a collector’s model from the Premium line, released in the Hot Wheels Boulevard series as number 150. This 1:64 scale replica is aimed at adult collectors and fans of the Japanese tuning scene, distinguishing itself from standard toy cars with its metal base, rubber Real Riders tires, and detailed tampos.

The Nissan Skyline GT-R (R32) Pandem casting was designed by Rob Matthes and debuted in 2024 in the Car Culture: Modern Classics series as HRV68. The casting features the Skyline GT-R with a wide Pandem body kit—riveted fender flares, a front splitter, and a prominent rear wing. The 2026 JHW41 version is finished in black and carries the full HKS livery. The detailing also includes precise printing for the headlights, taillights, and trim. The base is black metal, the windows have a smoke tint, and the interior is black. The model rolls on white RR5SPM wheels—five-spoke Real Riders with rubber tires—where the white rims create a stark contrast with the dark body, emphasizing the car's track-ready character. The country of origin is Thailand.

The livery pays homage to HKS, one of the most famous Japanese tuning companies, specializing in forced induction components, exhaust systems, and engine management electronics. Since the 1980s, HKS has been inextricably linked to the Skyline GT-R scene. The Pandem kit itself is a line of wide-body sets designed by Kei Miura of TRA Kyoto—also known as Rocket Bunny and recognized as one of the most iconic styles in global tuning.

The prototype is the third-generation Nissan Skyline GT-R, internally designated BNR32, produced from 1989 to 1994. The body was designed by Naganori Ito, and the car was created with Group A racing in mind; it was the first car to bear the Skyline GT-R name after a sixteen-year hiatus. It was powered by a 2.6-liter, twin-turbocharged RB26DETT inline-six engine, delivering power to all four wheels. The R32's dominance in touring car racing was so overwhelming that the Australian press nicknamed it "Godzilla." A total of 43,937 units were produced.

For a collector, the JHW41 is a very strong piece: a combination of the iconic R32 with the Pandem kit and HKS colors, topped off with white Real Riders wheels and a metal base. Numbered Boulevard releases featuring Japanese classics are among the fastest-selling in the entire series.
