I bought this kit in May 2006 from a local hobby store (where I first sat my eye on Mr.Haidi). Djan aggressively forced me to the shop and persuade me to buy a set so that he could have someone to play with! … and now I’m addicted ever since. I’ve been using this kit until now. (Sold my Yokomo BD but I’ve got another kit which I’ll cover some other time, WIP). Back to this chassis; Broke the tub twice last year. Broke the diff case once. Broke rear arm twice. Broke the driveshafts twice. Its not the chassis, its me. I just like to drive it hard.

So nothing I upgraded, its stock. Except that I’ve changed the front diff to a one-way diff. The rear diff I’ve changed to spool (fully locked diff).

You can see the picture above that even the front toe link is un-adjustable, its fixed toe to 0 degree.  Below picture shows the overall chassis, again its stock, no aluminium or whatsoever.

The electronics; Yokomo VFS-FR, Futaba Servo S3003, Yokomo TMAX 23T brushed motor and a Yokomo Starter transmitter/receiver kit. Nothing great about it except for the ESC – one of the far best ESC I’ve tried for drifting. And the Yokomo TMAX 23T motor is one of the best 23Tbrushed motor I’ve used for drifting but unfortunately its really hard to get these days but everyone has obsessed to brushless lately.

The tires I’m using are Max Concept hard compound which I like!

So basically its basic. Below are the stock dampers without no oil, its friction dampening. Not recommended, I’m lazy.

The rest is stock lah. Standard mcm AE86 with a 4AGE… kena clutch-kick somemore…

So overall, I’m not saying that this the best chassis in the world (like what Danial said for his Team Losi chassis) but gives me the fun with less maintainense and keeps me running every weekend without any fails (maybe once or twice) but most of the time its good.

Setups? Well the cambers, toes, ride height and droop as exactly as per manual. No changes were made.

Frankly, my setup is not comparible with other people’s la sebab semua stock standard and I have no plan to upgrade whatsoever. Of course others are better than mine. For competition usage? Urrghhh struggling to keep up with all those lipo and brushless freaks but competitive enough I’d say (If you see this car could get close to you car, that means something is clearly wrong with you or your car by right it shouldn’t).

At this moment, I’ve already put this kit into my storage. Too many things to do at this moment (kahwin, games, families, etc.). Concurrently I’m preparing another chassis which I’m dying to try it out. Bought it sometime ago from someone but don’t have the time to do it. Hoping to get it prep, shake it and test it for Yokomo GP 2008 Round 3… soon! And this time I’ve got new team memberS…
