Kyosho Ferrari 1/8th scale with 4 wheel disc brakes
This is a Kyosho 1/8th scale Ferrari 643 which is basically stock. It has never been run and currently sits on display. The only addition made to this car is I added a set of Auto Art key chain brake discs which machined out to press fit onto to the cars hubs. I also used a small piece of double sided tape sandwiched between the calipers to stop the discs from roatating. I think they look much better than the stock Kyosho plastics discs the car comes with plus the wheels and tires are able to move freely without any problem.

Great result with the brakes! I saw these same keychains on the 'Bay and thought about trying something similar - would love to see some pics detailing the machining process...

Thank-you OCD, I simply turned down the I.D. of the rotor until it was a tight press fit onto the hub.

Nice modifications.
