R35 R/c Drifter

Recommended Posts

i have two video's it . There ok quality.......i took them on the mobile so it isn't the best quality and there on the side so you have to watch it with a tilted head :banana:

This one is when i was driving it on the driveway and in the garage doing some slides. I have racing tires on so there HEAPS good for grip but i can still drift it when the floor is slick (goes for about 1 minute) :

In this one i drove it on the tiles with the same tires but it drifts fine. The space is so small i could only drift it a little bit (goes for about 30 seconds) :

It looks better if you flip the screen on its side :banana:

LOL!

Yeah you filmed it on the side, but sill looks good.

Gee you got good control in a small area.

Umm the TT-01 is an Expert build series. So the build is expert and the car for racing.

these are also expert build lines.

M-

DT-

DF-

there beginner models are Quick drive models. Also the Touring car class's so thats SOME TT-01 chassis but not many......all the TA and TB etc are not classed as expert but as intermediate. The silvia you have is for beginner modelers but want a expert car (because it is a TT-01 chassis) so they come pre-built.

It cost like $380 for the Type E and its comes with the R35 Body in the box so it ended costing me about $430 to finish it off.

Nice, thanks for that.

Yes the RC Car is very well built, can't complain about Tamiya, awesome quality.

It's fast for sure! Gota get use to the speed and controlling the throttle as well.

I took my S15 out again today out on the street, I'm getting use to it but still need practice.

Today I got my +6mm Offset Volk TE37 wheels in black and looks awesome as it fills the guards nicely.

I will get some pics tomorrow in the sunlight.

im trying to source the calsonic R32 GTR bodyshell but i cant seem to find them!

im trying to build up a nice little GTR collection

i got bored so i took apart my lemon of an E10 and cleaned up the parts then put it back together. runs better then new! :laugh:

also i got bored so i fitted a pod..... yes i actually have a pod on my electric RC

i think it looks great thru the vents that i cut open and it delivers cold air to the motor which gets pretty hot due to the exessive thrashing i give it :sick:

Thats awesome Sam.

That Pod air intake should cool down the Motor very well. How did you make the pod?

How long does your Battery last? Mines about 20 mins and giving it full throttle most of the time and they say you should give the motor a rest after every 10 mins of drifting...

Ok I got some pics for ya all.

A few "biffs" and "bumps" here and there as I took it out today and got too close to the curb a few times, looks tuff but haha!!

Tamiya PS Gloss Black paint sprayed on the inside with Tamiya PS Flat Clear coat on the outer shell.

Still need to car the rear bar skirt and make up a metal muffler exhaust system. Hehe!!

looks great jamie!

fuark these things are addictive

im stepping up to either a petrol drag RC or tamiya with a brushless motor

here are some pics

im loving the look of the R34 but the pod wont let the R34 body fit as its a tamiya where as the R32 is a HPI

i regret buying the HPI

its a hunk of shit..

it runs like crap now

barley turns right

stupid peice o' shit

cant wait till i get my nitro car

would look tuff az nails having a drag RC GTR.. no wing, fat black rims

some people managed to make a miniutre exhaust syustem as opposed to the side mount

seems easy enough. only a matter of time before someone releases a tiny ass turbo :rofl:

i revised the pod just before. used PVC piping and warmed it up till it could be malleable.

i simply used a lawnmower airfilter. the long cylinder ones which i cut in half

sticktape on with electric tape. also add some to the bends to strengthen them. and then mount it

easy as pie!

battery lasts for about 20 mins

gets very very hot..might need to mock up an intercooler :thumbsup:

the Ztuned ztune for comparison :P

Yeah awesome Sam!

That exhaust muffler looks cool.

So about 20mins for the battery yeah... I thought so as I timed it on Monday. I was hoping I was charging the battery for the right amount of time.

Z-Tune looks nice, what wheels you got? And I see you have put in disk brakes and calipers in which look nice.

Are the Tamiya and HPI chassis different in measurements?

Do you take you RC Car down to a nice smooth indoor/outdoor track? Cause atm I'm just using it down my street on the ashphelt. It's OK, but I pick small stones and you can say its a rougher surface then a track.

i just race it at the carpark near my house and in my court..

i love how it spins all 4 wheels on tiles

the rims are rays gram lights

they were chrome but i painted the centers black and left the dish chrome

`tamiya rapes HPI's ghetto ass in everything

i rushed into the RC and bought the HPI so yeah my loss

ive decided on a petrol car as oposed to the electric

im pretty crafty so i think ill make some miniuture performance parts..

the boss just went out and left me in charge... FMIC time:ninja:

Yeah I see.

I searched on the internet and there is a place down Port Melbourne where they have tracks to race all sorts of RC Cars.

Yeah I thought about going for some other "Cheaper" brand RC Cars, but I know everything with Tamiya will be built at a very good quality and you will be safe with them.

The wheels I bought were HPI brand and the new tyres are some other "Made In Japan" brand...

Petrol cars ehy?

LOL! Drift it to the servo and fill up then walk into and pay... "Thats $1 thanks..."

My FMIC is just a print out and stuck on.

Next body shell is probably a 180SX, R32, R34 or RX7 FD Wide body or something totally different and looking at building a Submarine and set it off with my dad as he is into RC Sail Boats as he's got two.

One is purely wind powered and the other is wind and electric motorised.

Supercharged nitro rc engines are bullshit.

The problem is that there are no "valves" in the engines so the intake path is never closed and hence cannot be pressurised.

IMHO, if you want more go either get a bigger engine (my Savage runs a .28 with 3hp.. enough to do wheelstands in the 5ish kg truck), OR, get a NOS setup.

thanks bubba

someone managed to get a turbo working on an RC engine the turbo was tiny

so how would a 3hp engine go on a road car?

all 4 wheels smoking? :thumbsup:

    • Yours would only have been worse, because I've spent 2 weeks cleaning mine. And yet it barely looks any different... Ha ha ha The work bench is unusable as things are stacked so high on it, as it down each walk way between the cars. And on one of them. And inside the other... And under one of them... These days when working in the garage, I need to roll the Subaru out. Because the "workshop" portion is just so full of stuff... To do anything means to move lots of stuff...   But I recently got rid of a full rack of fish tanks, and a few more. Then have started just throwing shit that's actual rubbish. And trying to sort everything else! Ha ha ha   Needing to move the Lathe into its proper spot, and then move all the other gear like the press, compressors, welding trolleys.   And let's not talk about the camping gear... I want to get rid of it, the GF wants to go camping... I think I'm getting to old to want to camp these days   Oh, I also evicted a few things, like the motorbike outside ages ago too! Ha ha ha This is all in a 6x9
    • The end of 2024 fast approaches!!! So before the 'storm' hits, we think it's worth enjoying a little 'calm'! How better to enjoy some calm with a chill social out at Aqua Golf!

Who knows where the night may take us... What we do know is that there are plenty of food options available at the Penrith Panthers complex. For those of us keen to hit a few golf balls, prices start from $7.00 a bucket. Aqua Golf is open til late, so we have plenty of time to have a few hits and laughs with each other!
