Subaru Brat Re-re Differences

Recommended Posts

I was curious to find out if there were any differences between the original and the rere Brat in terms of the bodyshell / details. Think I saw something somewhere where someone said the little white bumper on the front nose of the Brat was different? Also wondering if there was anything difference between the Mudblaster Shell and the Brat's?

cheers

Fairly certain that the body itself is the same on the original and rere.

Differences in the chassis itself from (my dodgy!!) memory are as follows;

Original had no diff in the gearbox.

Original had a 360(?) motor not 540.

Original had a seperate servo saver, not one on the servo.

Rere has extra width where the battery compartment end lugs screw on to accomodate better the 7.2v stick packs.

Rere has electronic speedo not mechanical.

Rere has tinted glass not clear

Front body post is annodised aluminium on Rere, steel on original.

Rere has oil filled shocks on the back (my original one had just springs iirc)

Cool thanks for the answers! I'm now in search of clear glass for my Brat project...

The very early Brats didn't have the antenna mount where it currently is now. That feature was added for the release of the Mud Blaster.

I had one but it was too far gone to save, it was the only difference I could find between them.

Ah click, yeah I remember now about the bumper being not as wide... For some reason I thought there was something different about the small white bumper that mounts directly onto the Brats nose... I had one of those and thought great they're hard to come by but not so it's the chassis bumper I'll have difficulty tracking down :/
