I have been waiting for a long time for one of these to be produced. My favourite chassis iwas the ff01 so this chassis has made my year. I like the ifs system and everything else that comes with it especially all the blue alloy. The build was a bit fiddley with loads of small plastic washers everywhere but other than that it was a pure joy to put together. The shell is from my civic drift chassis and the decals where puirchased from eBay. I was considering putting my 10.5t novak brushless system in it but i thing i will stick a tz motor in it for now. I know the bodyposts need chopping but i have not decided which shell to run on it yet as the civic is for the shelf.

Thanks for looking and comments welcome as always.

That's a nice chassis and the body work is very well finished.

Body looks fantastic -- Nice work! Are the post holes already cut or did you have to do them yourself?

That looks great! I've never run/had an FF chassis, and always wondered what it was like. I assume it is the closest to a real front wheel drive car as possible. More so than the M03. Great looking chassis and body!

I built my TRF201 yesterday, and it also has loads of small plastic washers... Perhaps to reduce wear and/or friction in places?

What wheelbase does the civic have?

Very interesting... kinda odd looking chassis (with those inboard laydown front shocks)! What are the proportions for it - i.e would a normal 1-10th 190mm touring car shell fit? I can remember there being a bit of a Fwd following when touring cars first 'took off' in the 90s with the FF01 series of cars & the Yokomo YRF2 (would love one of those now). Do you intend to race this & does your local track run a front wheel drive class?

Turned out beautiful. Perhaps Tamiya are finally trying to fight what they are infamous for - slop - with all these plastic washers.

Thanks for all the great comments. The body post holes were already cut but i had to widen them as the posts are a little wider. This takes 190mm size bodyshells like most of tamiyas touring car range. But you can have 3 different size wheelbases.
