Awesome little things, I wouldn't mind getting one for my umm 21month old boy. lol

Would any one have better pics of the R32 GTR, from what I can see the R32's shell looks a little crappy. The R34 looks good but.

I used to be into these, where I was younger, I had a RWD one with FETs extra battery and faster motor, thing used to drift. :sleep:

generally hobby stores are abit expensive,

I used to order all my stuff from hk or us. was cheaper, cant remember where from tho

edit, ausmicro sell ready sets

Yeah, the hobby shops in aust are very expensive, considering for diffs transmissions etc, you can have the price and have it at your front door (shipping included) but coming from a hobby shop is hella spensive...

But when people are just getting into it, alot of the time it's better to buy local.

lol I have this tiny tomy rc car, about the size of a 50 cent coin and its got an r34 shell, batteries last abou 10 mins then you recharge it off the remote. pretty sweet but i havent used it for about 3 years cause the cars battery stopped chargng properly

They come up occasionally on ebay, but otherwise HPI make an RS4 micro, with an R34 shell. They're about the same size.

Available locally, plenty of hop-ups...etc etc.

But if you go down the road of a 1:10th RC drifter, there's plenty more options and cheaper parts. Essentially you're going to need the same radio gear, batteries, charger etc.

Thse guys stock them locally...

They have a shop in Rhodes and the city.

I had one for a while. There pretty cool. Especially when you start modifying them

I have a collection of the Tomy Bit-G (aka Bit-char) cars...

The best is my R34 skyline (no honestly) - I got the upgraded motor and gears for it...

I think toyseast sells them from hongkong - but check Big-W!

I'm sure I've seen the Kyosho ones there!

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..   
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
