b3nchy Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Hi all, I am planning to build a scale replica of my 1994 Mazda Miata (mX-5) Tamiya used to make a roadster kit on an M04 chassis but after much searching ive not found a complete kit. however i have found somewhere to buy an original body. my question really is what options do i have when it comes to the chassis itself. It needs to have a wheelbase of 225mm and be 160mm wide. drive isnt the be all and end all but i would preffure 4 wheel drive if possible. thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex97 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 You planning to take it off road? To be honest after having a M03 they don't drive very well in comparison to a proper TC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b3nchy Posted January 10, 2017 Author Share Posted January 10, 2017 Not offroad no. Maybe a bit of drifting here and there. The main reaosn for the build is for at car shows with my full size mx5. But the ablity to drift would help convince the mrs on cost [emoji23]Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
