Drift IT · 07-18-2004, 01:39 PM

beautiful...
where did you get your body from?
and what chassis is it?
is it the yokomo drift chassis?
BTW Nice rims...

sykoracer02 · 07-18-2004, 06:31 PM

my bro got me the body and the chassis is a yokomo yr-4m2 pro so it not the yokomo drift set

Ripper · 07-18-2004, 07:16 PM

can that thing turn? and how much do chasis cost for each brand?

sykoracer02 · 07-18-2004, 08:25 PM

lol yea it can turn and the chassis for the yokom drift set is 200 to 250

spinitsidewayz! · 07-18-2004, 09:32 PM

looks nice. damn that thing is low... but if it was a real s13 youd be slapped for having super *Censored**Censored**Censored* offset

ACDSupra7 · 07-18-2004, 09:55 PM

thanks all u guys

Rx7Ryder · 07-19-2004, 02:44 PM

you can drift with any rc car. I drift with my super nitro rs4, all I did was put electric tape on the wheels (I am trying to find some ABS plastic wheels). You dont need a special yokomo chassis, s13 body, or some weird camber settings to drift. BTW, once my car shreads all the tape off, it does 90mph+. Its a 4 lb car with 3hp engine @ 35000 rpms. I am sure it can go much faster, its just limited by gearing.

cut down those posts, they are wayyyy to high.

I did not do anything to the engine, its a Mach .26 CI engine with 3 hp. I decided to buy this engine for 129 versus a hi-performance .12 engine for 200 bucks.

sykoracer02 · 07-23-2004, 02:00 AM

thanks for the feed back

Drift For Food · 07-23-2004, 11:20 PM

Nice RC. I'd never put a body like that on mine though. She'd be toast pretty quick, lol, especially that wing, although it looks nice on it. It looks like to spent a little time on that body, show only or do you actually use it too?

Those custom headlights? If not, what brand is it?

Rx7Ryder, how much does that thing weigh? What's the motor originially designed for? .21's are big blocks in the RC world, that .26 has got to be a decent size, quite large for an RC...well maybe ok if you're running it in the Super HPI, still big. Was it tough to squeeze in there or did you have enough room to start with?

I've got an electric TC3 I've had for a couple years. I should really start to play with drifting in it, well other than during winter anyways, lol. How long does the PVC pipe last? Anyone try metal? Sparkies, lol.

The mach .26 has 2.75 said horse power its more like 2.100hp
Tight fit in a super nitro since they have the slim chassis .

Lemme take some pics of my collection of cars. I have 2 yokomo drifters,2 ttl-101 5 other nitro cars and trucks.

I need to buy me some yokomo replacement bodys . I especialy need the 180sx and the s15

Ghost of Duluth · 07-25-2004, 10:43 AM

jooser · 07-25-2004, 12:07 PM
