custom frontmotor sakura

Hello everyone.



I would like to tell you the story about my sakura.
At first it was a standart sakura zero s.
I dont like how it rides and i deside to change suspension.
I buy eagle suspension from TA05 with stearing.



That upgrade drivving condition not bad, but it have some problems with stearing.
I think that this is due with weight.
Next upgraid is change position of the motor.
I buy front parts from sakura ff.



At this time there is no sakura ds3, it was 2011 year.



And since that time chassis stay on the shelf.
I dont have time and place to conversion.



In 2014 i buy carbon plate 2,5 mm and cut upper and lower deck, shock towers.
In this conversion i wanted max angle from stearing and max weight to the front.





Position of the battery is longitudinally.





At the present time angle is about 50 deg, all wires is max shorten.



Few words about stearing- it turned very strong, backslash is minimum.



A have a few plans with bagi mod from the front and rear and i think that this is the end.

In the end of the story - project starts in 2011 and finish for the working condition in 2014.
I have an idea to change all plastic details to alluminium.
For now cs is 2,04

Next time i tell you about body

love seeing the more custom builds around the place

nice work, very nice build

so how does it perform against other mainstream chassis?

i always wanted to use the ff bulkhead and gearbox on the rear of a d3 in rwd but ended up buying a d4 instead
