LOL, I gotta take new pictures of mine

 

Hey I have one of those (well the body anyway idk what chassis you have it sitting on) in the trunk of my car. Mine is white though and not all pretty like yours. It's been sitting in my trunk for months already hahaha.

 

It's a Tamiya TB-02. Had it since '05 I think.

 

Here is my black r32 in the last comp at the blaisdell

1st of 6 Hyper Drift Comps Begin Tomorrow at Kunia Box Car Track

 

nice cars!

 

I have a Tamiya TT-01, basically a starter model but I upgraded the motor to a Spitfire brushed motor(only 20 bucks and yes I know brushed vs brushless but the performance is nearly that of a 60$ brushless motor) Aluminum drive shaft, metal swing axles i forget which one but a yokomo differential.
Gotta buy me a new body though since my riced out honda odyssey is pretty thrashed. What bodies do you guys use? I really want a yokomo jzx100 but its super expensive.

 

I Also have a TT-01 as far as bodies go a lot of us run Tamiya Bodies ($40) because of the price compared the yokomo bodies, you can pick some up at Sandy Flemings in Pearl City. For the brushed vs Brush-less I say go with the brush-less because he majority has it because there's less maintenance involved and more power, but a brushed is good enough for now. At Aloha Hobbies Scott might have have them for around $140 for motor and ESC (Novak Havoc). Later down the line you might want to think about locking your rear diff and getting a front-one way. Hope this helps, since this is a Subaru forum if you want to ask really specific questions http://www.hyperdrift.com/forum/ is a very resourceful site and we can help you out

 

Yea, hopefully I am going to pick up a JZX body sometime soon(my sti body died finally) I just picked up a Novak brushless from my friend who is big into rc drift(400 dollar carbon chassis) I saw the hyper drift video and I was saddened by how much more organized it is over there compared to here on the big island. All we do is put cones on tennis courts lol.
