Mastering the Art of Drift: The Tamiya 57809 Endless 370Z
For RC enthusiasts who crave the excitement of precision drifting, the Tamiya 57809 Endless 370Z offers an unparalleled experience. This ready-to-run model is more than just a replica; it embodies the spirit of Nissan's iconic 370Z, renowned for its sleek design and performance. Officially used by ENDLESS, a famous Japanese brake parts manufacturer, this model captures the essence of the real-world demonstration car with exquisite detail.
Why Choose the TT-01ED Chassis?
The TT-01ED chassis is a cornerstone in Tamiya's lineup, celebrated for its robust construction and drift capabilities. Equipped with fiberglass reinforced nylon components, it ensures exceptional rigidity. The 4WD drivetrain, paired with a longitudinally-placed motor, provides consistent power distribution, making it ideal for smooth and controlled drifts.
Design That Speaks Volumes
The polycarbonate body mirrors the athletic form of the 370Z, complete with boomerang-shaped headlights and taillights, enhanced by metal-plated parts for authenticity. Adding to its realism are the included LEDs that illuminate the road ahead, mimicking the white headlamps and red tail lamps of the actual vehicle.
Performance Features for the Avid Drifter
Drift enthusiasts will appreciate the 24mm width drift tires mounted on metal-plated mesh wheels, which provide excellent control and durability. The 4-wheel double wishbone suspension, featuring CVA Shock Unit Super Mini and adjustable upper arms, allows for extensive customization, catering to both novice and seasoned drivers. Ball bearings minimize friction, ensuring efficient power transfer from the Sport-Tuned Motor, while an aluminum heatsink aids in maintaining optimal motor temperature.
