53HRA Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 This exciting drift spec TT-02 assembly kit recreates the Honda Civic SiR (EG6). The TT-02 chassis is an entry-level 4WD full independent suspension assembly kit that offers ease of assembly and easy maintenance. The TT-02D is the Drift Spec variant that includes special parts to make it a fun to drive drifting machine! The EG was known as the "Sport Civic" in Japan, and was the fifth generation of the famous car. It had a vibrant look, said-to-be inspired by the famous Brazilian carnival atmosphere. The Civic had a 170hp inline-4 DOHC VTEC engine under the bonnet of the top-spec SiR hatchback, which made for plenty of power at the time. The car was a regular sight in Japanese and international racing competitions.

XV Pilot Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 It is already available as a FWD road car on the FF-03 chassis, albeit in Castrol race livery. The shell appears to be the same moulding though, so if you wanted a FWD street car, you could just leave off the Castrol decals and paint the shell accordingly.

NuttyProfessor Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 plenty of people out there have converted the 1:1 to RWD for drifting, pop the front dogbones and the centre shaft out, boom, RWD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NuttyProfessor Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) Honda Civic, loads of converted real ones to RWD. On the TT02, you could do the reverse and make FWD by taking the dogbones out the rear or as I said, for RWD, pop the front dogbones out as well as the centre shaft.

Kpowell911 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) Pop the centre shaft out? Civics are FWD? Only RWD Civics I know of are SR20 conversions? Edited August 3, 2016 by Guns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
