Newbie, drifting subaru

Hi.. I'm new in this forum and hobby.. I would like to share my finished project.

This is my third car I've built. Initially this is Tamiya Subaru Impreza 2004 WRC Rally Japan but I dun like the genuine wheel from box so I got Aoshima Racing hart, plug and lower them to this suby.

I tried to build it as a drift car. Please feel free to comment me thanks.. :)

Thanks for looking.. :licka:

Any comment guys? Comments will be appreciated.. thanks..

I like the way it sits on the wheels.It seems to lean forwards,looks very muscular.What size are the wheel rims they look huge? Did you alter the suspension height at all?

I like it! I think the wheels looks hot!

19"Racing Harts from Aoshima; the model looks awesome!! :sunglasse

Reply to stevenoble,
Thanks for comment. As tonioseven said, yes, they are Aoshima RacingHart 19''. I customised the front suspensions by replacing it with StripStyrene. Look picture:

Sorry a bit blurry.. =)

Thanks for all comments.. cheers

Good machine.

:yikes: I'm not sure WRC inside would match very well with drift car :lol: but you did a good job on the suspensions and the wheels and their position are really impressive and give a great agressive look to this Impreza ! :thumbsup:

I dont pay attention to drifting but do they do it with AWD cars?

BTW it looks nice anyway!

That is what I thought to until the other day when I saw on 06 STI drifting. I am pretty sure that the front was not driving (connected) as this would cause extremely wide drifts. I don't know if you saw Top Gear much but when then tested the EVO 7MR he could drift it in a 200 foot wide circle. That is not at all tight enough for a drift course. I may be talking out of my ___ though?!

BTW it is a nice model, sorry to not comment. If this is a 2wd idea did you modify the chassis for this?

I like the interior carpet that you added.

Well, i believed that this kind of car do drifting if and only if it is modified to 2WD (rear). The other day I saw subaru drifting at D1GP video so yea maybe they disconnect the FWD. But I'm not pretty sure.. I dun really know about engine though >.<
No I didn't do anything to the chasis.. Make it as WRC car stock except the eksterior and a bit for interior..
Maybe I need to put more attention to detailing. Thanks for comment anyway.. =)

It was my first time for flocking so it's a bit messy haha..
