driftpackage

 evolution of my driftpackage . first purchased as a basic type b about 5 years ago
was soon upgraded first on the list was to strengthen the drive train and ad cs and fow . im still using the yokomo 3 peice diff and d like gears to this day which are a testament to there strength .
next where team suzuki high angle wipers driveshafts and removal of c hubs . it stayed this way for awhile.

                                     
then as seen above a major upgrade was done anything that looks like plastic is the graphite option . lots of alloy bits and some more upgrades to the drivetrain, front Y arms where added a front underdrive plus the sliderack that has to be one of the biggest differences made to the chassis.


 now in its current form rwd , changes made to chassis for this .
removed the rear swaybar springs are twin type changed to supersoft rear lighter oil and more holes in piston .front , wrapup knuckles extended the track medium top/soft lower lighter oil .
drivertrain changed fdr to 11.4 from 9.6 .
future upgrades are the sanwa type d and a g force motor .

hayabusa rdp01

my rdp01 while not heavily modified a well designed chassis doesnt necessarily need to be.


upgrades i have done are , graphite diff case different spur gear and holder . diff oil changed to 10000 weight graphite gears

also added alloy toe blocks and carbon and alloy tower braces , the kit doesnt come with shocks im using some from a hpi pro d .

i also changed the front knuckles to mikuni alloy ones and added a cut down front shock tower to widen the shocks position in front .
