GT86 Roll call
GT86 Roll call
What GT86/BRZ/FRS bodies are available out there?
Really leaning toward the Tamiya R&D Sport BRZ, Eazy Street's was so clean and different.
Don't be a douche and help the next guy.
Figured I'll be needing a new body whenever and already know I want a GT86 so...

the difference between these two is in the size
the DSLike body has a low, narrow and long feel. it's an easy body for most to feel comfortable with
the front bumper is not very scale and the windows taper in which doesn't happen on the real car.
the Tamiya is pretty scale back to the rear section which is where a lot of the shortening happens.
It's also very high.

the HPI FR-S was also released recently.
the Tamiya Super GT bodies are made for a really low mounting position.
If you don't have a shaft drive or a TA-06, then carefully consider the spur position.

Russ it was from your Samurai and Tsunami 86 blog that I fell in love with this body. Lol, it's from your blog I fell in love with alot of things!
Nate that's a sick FRS!
So my top 3 right now:
-R&D Sport BRZ
-Yokomo HKS 86
-D-like Rocket Bunny
You're right about the Tamiya GT86. From some angles it looked like a Mazda Axela hatch to me
Don't be a douche and help the next guy.
Thats the exact reason why I want to use the R&D BRZ. It's different. I don't like people telling me what I can and can't use because we all express ourselves a little differently. Who drifts a minivan in real life? but the Vellfire and HiAce both seem to be pretty popular. That said, thanks for the list. That was exactly what I was looking for!
