mr. Rallying 8 Posted November 25, 2015 Hi! It's been around 5 years since I was active on tamiyaclub.com. Time to get back Some of you might remember the MG Metro 6R4 I built in 2010...: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=102393&sid=29893 I ran the Metro for the first time this summer and it handled quite well so I decided to build a simular car for my son. I do think the Ken Block DC Shoes Subaru is one of the greatest looking Subarus so therefore I thought a different looking Brat was in it's place. This is a mash-up of different parts: FF-01 chassis tub from a Honda Civic, TA-01 gearboxes, DF-01 upper & lower arms, adjustable tie-rods, TA-02 uprights, DF-03 front driveshafts (modified to slip into the TA-02 bearings), Yeah Racing rear driveshafts (unis), hard driveshaft cups, Yeah Racing TA-01 alu propshaft (shortend), fully ballraced, Alloy dampers, EzRun 17,5T motor + 60A ESC, Traxxas TQi 2,4 GHz Radio + transmitter, FaceWorx decals, AMG Mercedes 58145 rear spoiler, Toyota Celica GT-Four 58164 mirrors, Wide 5-spoke wheels with BF Goodrichs. You'll find more pics here: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=127765&id=29893 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisRx718 3313 Posted November 25, 2015 Ha that's awesome. I'm considering getting some of the decal sheets from the far east as they're so cheap and it's a great livery. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr. Rallying 8 Posted November 25, 2015 My daugther had to have one too..: Same chassis set-up except the tub comes from a Manta Ray, and the wheels are Ansmann. http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=127766&id=29893 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thommo 1175 Posted November 25, 2015 Ha ! My boy's car is exactly the same platform - TA02 with DF01 suspension and uni shafts, brat body and those tyres. They drive unreal ! Great job on the body and I really like the wide wheels too. That thing is rad ! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
