Hi Guys or Ladies.

Just wondering if you guys could shed any light on the remote control drift car scene.

First of all there are a few clips floating around, and I must tell you they look awsome, with a bit of honing on the skills. What I want to know is, are they drifting these things out of the box or have they upgraded the motors and so forth.

They are the electric ones not nitro, Aparantly the nitro ones don't last very long on full throttle.

The manufacurer I am refering to is Yokomo. ( model - Eg. BLITZ ER34 D1 Spec).

Secondly, can you readily buy shells for these Eg. r32, rx7 etc.

Thirdly, what sort of prices do they fetch in Japan?

Here is a link to a site with them:

There are a 4 clips you can download, check them out.

I am trying to research these localy, but any help would be apppreciated.

Yes, thank you Adam.

I have seen the rx7VII in a shop in Melbourne. I f you read over my question, I ask if these drift like on the videos out of the box, how much they are in japan and if you can buy all differant shells already kitted up.

I have seen various assorted shells but they are bare, and I am sure the average Jo hobby place down the road would not stock D1 sticker kits.

    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same. 
    • I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense
    • yeh they are 235/45/17 up front and 255/40/17 in the rears. I still didn't get my answer if i can fit a 18x9 up front. I want to get 4 of this and see if they will fit before committing as they didn't see an 18x8 as an option but there is a 18x9.5 also.   Enkei RS05-RR 18x9 35mm ET 5x114.3 75.0 Bore Matte Gunmetal Wheel
