I will be the first to admit to it, but damm they are a lot of fun.

Im running a Hyper 10 Drift / Road car.

If anyone is keen, i would like to get a few SAU peeps togther to go muck around down at Hobby Habbit in Melrose Park.

+Extra points awarded for anyone with a Skyline shell.

If i get some interest i will post some pics.

I have a Carson Attack 1/5th scale. It has boost bottle, pod filter, power pipe. It rips up all the grass with the chunky tyres. I also have a smaller road car with nitrous engine at the moment it has conduit glued over some old wheels and drifts nicely only its a ford shell.

I ain't in SA but I do have a HPI 5T & a 5B. The 5T has had $1000's spent on it. I am sponsored by RC Buggie's and race at SOLS track in Sydney! Wicked cars these 1/5th scales.

Drop by on AUSRC forum, check out my build thread and say gday!

I have a yokomo drift package, spectrum 2.4ghz radio gear running nosram speed controller and yokomo D1 15 turn motor, i use to go to hobbie habit on a weekly basis for the wednesday drift night and then the comps that followed id be keen to bust out my R/C and go for a skid its been a while :)

we have a few vids on youtube firs one is

Twins rc Drift

and second one was

RC Drift Mix

were put together by my mate tom was good fun

mine is the Gold BNR32 in Twins RC drift

and the yellow 180sx in Rc drift mix. :)

I got a Yokomo drift package with a few shells: R32, Chaser, AE85, S15, Nomuken R34. Standard :) And its f**king fun. Havent pulled it out in a while tho!

The only bad thing is, if there are others there with Yokomo packages, fair chance some of us will have the same frequencies :(

I have no problem with Frquency as my car are locked to my own personal frequency.

I have a spectrum and top of the range remote so never have a problem.

I have a yokomo drift pacage with Spectrum win win :)

Go the spectrum 2.4ghz :) no more interfierance problems for us :)

And for all there is an RC drift comp on 2moz arvo at hobby Habbit starts at 5:30 for any one who wants to have a go

or just come see what this nonsense is all about. my self and a few of my mates will be 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..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • 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
