Rocket Bunny’s Mini R32 Tribute Is the Cutest GT-R You’ve Ever Seen

The original R32 Skyline GT-R earned its “Godzilla” nickname through sheer dominance in Group A touring-car racing between 1989 and 1994.

Armed with the RB26DETT twin-turbo straight-six and officially rated at 276 horsepower, the R32 became a motorsport icon — especially in Australia, where a motoring journalist famously coined the Godzilla moniker.

Rocket Bunny’s newest creation leans into that legacy with humor and reverence in equal measure. Instead of brute force, the tuner chose a platform as far removed from the Skyline as imaginable: a Suzuki kei car, specifically the diminutive Suzuki Twin.

As Japan’s first hybrid kei commuter, the Twin represents efficiency and compactness — not motorsport might.

27 Horsepower, Maximum Attitude

While the R32 GT-R’s RB26 could comfortably triple its factory output with the right tuning, the Suzuki Twin soldiers on with just 27 horsepower from a 660cc three-cylinder. It’s a comical gap, yet that contrast is precisely the charm.

Visually, the Rocket Bunny R32 tribute hits all the right cues: squared-off box flares, an exaggerated muffler tip, and playful proportions that read as a JDM anime sketch come to life. It’s what the Japanese call kawaii, an intentionally cute aesthetic that transforms the car into a miniature Godzilla wearing a Halloween costume.

The result sits somewhere between parody and celebration — unmistakably GT-R, yet unmistakably tiny.

Built in Just Two Weeks

According to Rocket Bunny founder Kei Miura, the entire conversion took only two weeks to complete. That speed would be impressive for a standard custom build, yet it becomes even more notable given the unique proportions and packaging challenges posed by kei platforms.

The tuner also confirmed the body kit will eventually be offered commercially, allowing enthusiasts to replicate the pint-sized GT-R formula on their own kei machines. Even more intriguing, Miura hints at future upgrades — potentially including a conversion to rear-wheel drive.

Should that happen, the miniature R32 could become more than just a visual tribute. It might actually drive like a scaled-down GT-R, albeit one more likely to battle city traffic than time-attack leaderboards.

Rocket Bunny’s kei-sized R32 homage may only pack 27 horsepower, but it delivers 100 percent personality. By blending humor, heritage, and craftsmanship, the build highlights a playful corner of JDM tuning that values imagination as much as engineering.

If the body kit reaches production — and especially if that rumored rear-wheel drive conversion materializes — the world may soon have a whole new generation of fun-sized “Godzillas” roaming the streets. Just keep an eye on your ankles.
