You could buy old used ones pre-built on ebay ,But half the fun is building them... Always wanted a Tamiya subaru brat but could never afford one .. till now .
Glad these have been re-released and with 2 bodies and esc included .. just bought one today and now waiting on my one to be delivered from Japan
@efedude77 Hi, this is a pretty straight forward build. Just take your time and make sure you've assembled all the extra bit and bobs that you'll need :-)
hi mate, i am also the proud owner of a tamiya subaru brat and would just like to say that you have made a legendary job of painting this one. Its oldschool in very good taste and i dont know where you got that base paint but i wish id done mine with it!!! nice driving too, these tyres have brilliant grip, but they can still pull off a descent dohnut. Which gear did you put in the gearbox? the torque gear i would imagine...
@al3xmet sorry I'm so late replying. I've sold this now but it was the standard spur with a 3500nimh. The gears (as ever in this box) couldn't handle the power but much fun until they started slipping :-) J
Is this kit one you would recommend highly or say not to get. I like the way its running here, and the body has good details to it. Tamiya has made some good kits over the years thats for sure.
One day I will get one of these, when I was a kid I would ask for one all the time, but my dad would always get the crappy cheapo remote controlled cars, but these are AWESOME.. So cool
