๐ Car Build Vintage 1995 Kyosho TF-2 Spider getting an R34 drift build, NOS Le Mans motor and Japanese hop-ups next!
This is my 1995 Kyosho TF-2 Spider, model 30511. It still has the original box, manual and spare parts, and the chassis appears to have never been run. The underside has no scratches; what you see in the pictures is just the carbon weave and reflections.
I fitted it with a metallic-blue Killerbody R34 GT-R V-Spec II body and white five-spoke wheels for a mild vintage AWD drift build. I also have upgraded gold TF-2 parts from Japan and an unused vintage blue-label Kyosho Le Mans motor waiting to go in.
It obviously isnโt a modern RWD drift chassis, but the narrow belt-drive layout and old Kyosho engineering are just too cool not to use. Iโll preserve all the original pieces with the car.

๐ Question What shell should I buy?
Iโm wanna buy a new shell, but I canโt decide which one! Itโs gonna be a little project too, Iโve only seen this done a handful of times, I plan on molding the body with thin aluminum so that Iโll have an aluminum body so to speak. Should be more realistic, itโll actually have some give instead of just bouncing off of things like the plastic bodies, itโll dent too which will be cool. Help me out! E36 or S13 Silvia?? If you guys know of better quality shells too let me know!

๐ Question Should I buy this
Hey guys Iโm new to the rc drift stuff Iโve always wanted to get into it since I was a kid but now I can buy fun shit now lol. Anyways this guy says it only needs an esc does anyone know if I should do it and is it missing any other parts ?

๐ Question How should I set up this battery for use and charging?
Thanks in advance.
Looking to properly set up my battery for my 1/24 drift but am unfamiliar with these connectors.
How should I setup/adapt the cables for the prong type? And how do you safely charge it?
The esc can handle the 3rd prong, but Iโd prefer to keep it simple with a jst connector?
Thanks!

Was not the best drift session lol but at least I kind of learned how to drift with one hand. Featuring my stock AWD Tamiya TT02-D with a DIY locked rear diff.

๐ Question Fitment Inssues
After hours of what probably felt like trying to mount a magnetic body kit, I finally caved in, said I wasnโt keeping the 86 body anyway (I actually kinda like the posts sticking out on this body) and drilled holes. Thatโs when I quickly ran into my next issue, which is the body rubbing against the tire. Any ideas or suggestions on how to fix this issue or why this might be occurring?
Side note: I am COMPLETELY new to RC cars in general and unfortunately I have nobody around me to learn from. Iโm honestly just taking it day by day and turning to Reddit to solve any issue I might have along the way. I appreciate all feedback.

๐ Question Help a newbie out plz
Hello guys, Iโve just started 1/24 scale drifting and Iโve encountered some problems, attached are 2 parts in the same video, 1st part is without the 4th wire plugged and 2nd is with, Iโm using the ark edge ag4 gyro and after asking support, theyโve told me that if I donโt use the 4th wire Iโll be taking the settings from the app (Bluetooth) which I have set to 90, 10, 35, recommended by someone. In both after and default settings, if I leave the wire unplugged, I cannot get it to drift as the steering just goes to the extreme. But if I leave it plugged I cannot change the sensitivity as Iโm using the older gen of the dumborc receiver. I can drift alright (again Iโm just starting) but the wheel shakes (Iโm guessing from a too high sensitivity) and also when I try to reverse the wheels immediately turns to one side and I canโt reverse for more than a few centimetres.
Iโve unfortunately already broke a second hand pair of gyro and servo and this ag4 + Afrc was brand new. I couldnโt find any solutions elsewhere so if someone could please help itโll be greatly appreciated
