Hey guys

I am selling my R/C drift car because I want to buy myself a New computer so the hobby has to go!! This car is only 3 weeks old and I have reciepts for OVER $800 dollars for it but Im willing to let it go at a non negotiable $450 dollars which is peanuts for this car, its almost not worth even selling it but I need the extra $$$. Heres everything, the car is completely set up for drift and puts on a spectacular show.

Its a current model Tamiya TT01- I hand built it. It was the Raybrig NSX 2003 JGTC race car kit. Absolutely stunning detailed shell.

I have two shells for it. The drift shell is a real head turner. Its a HPI S15 200sx with minimal authentic decals.(it even has a front mount) This is a Nismo Endorsed bodyshell and its painted in a Transclusent Violet/pink. I get gatherings of ppl crowd around me at tracks to have a look at it.

The NSX is a geniune 2003 RAYBRIG japanese touring car body (JGTC) and is very wide. Its painted in a deep metalic blue and is an absolute stunning bodyshell. Its my good raceshell which i keep aside.

The extras I put in.

Tamiya Ballbearings.

Futaba 230 Electronic speed controller with ABS and reverse.

Futaba T2ER Reciever and Controller with 2 high torque Futaba servos.

Tamiya Super Stock Tz 23 turn motor. This is a brilliant motor, much quicker than a stock 540, loads of torque yet is happy to sit up in the high RPM range.

Tamiya 22 tooth pinion. Higher top speed.

Tamiya Hard springs on rear (white) and medium hard on front (blue). HUGE improvement.

Tamiya Upper arm Kit front and rear. To dial in that camber for the sick drift look.

2 sets of wheels. Grey Volk TE37s and a Pair of Hot White PROLINE nylon wheels - my drift wheels.

Both front and rear differentials have been Locked with Silicone. It is removable but this helps a LOT with traction and control.

1 X 1900 mah Ansmann Batt pack.NI-CD

1 X 3000 mah Ansmann Batt pack.NI-MH

1 X Ansmann ACS 67P+ Microprocessor controlled Charger. Charges in about 1 hour. Microprocesser controlled so wont overcharge and damage the batteries. Can be plugged into wall or into cigar lighter in car for charging.

Tyres.

Tamiya Soft Slicks and a set of the latest Yokomo Radial Drift tyres (without the plastic ring crap).

Ive got a heap of spares too - screws and bolts, a brand spanking new Tamiya 540 motor, Mechanical 3 way speed controller, Soft springs, and a few more bits and pieces. The chassis is in new condition.

You wont get a better deal on a Setup like this for under $800 and Im letting it go at 450. Ive put a lot of time into this car and immensely enjoyed running it. It attracts crowds of ppl that go - how the **** do u get it sliding so easily. It suspension is setup for drift, however, whack the slicks on , change the camber settings and it is a really impressive track weapon, lots of the Nitro guys have actually commented to me about how well its setup.

As a bonus If anyone wants it intersate I will post it free of charge!! This is ur chance to get into the latest hobby craze!! I will otherwise advertise it on Ebay or in the melb trading post and it will be snapped up easily for the price.

To put into perspective - U cud buy a new Yokomo Kit for around $450 dollars plus which wud include a less detailed body, without the motor, paint, batteries, charger, reciever with controller or a electronic speed controller.

Let me know by email. BTW all the car comes nice and new in its original box!

Hey guys

Yes of Course its electric. There pretty much the only cars that you can drift precisely. Nitros just dont cut it when it comes to drifting.

I have to get my hands on a Digi cam and take some pictures so please bear with me.... I live in Melbounre.

Thanks guys

Kim

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
