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

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
