For racers and RC hobbyists that want to build their own kit,
HPI offers the hot new Nitro RS4 3 18SS+! The 'plus' features
classic sports car bodyshells with the latest in speed and
performance upgrades! Along with the satisfaction of building your
own car from the ground up, you get an impressive array of great
options - ranging from go-fast goodies like a two-speed
transmission and the powerful 18SS engine to durability upgrades
like hardened diff gears and outdrives. The
heart of the 18SS + is the Nitro Star 18SS engine, an insanely fast
powerplant that will get your car moving so fast it'll make your
head spin! Top speeds aren't a problem, either, because the
two-speed transmission keeps you in the ideal rev range for insane
speeds over 81 km/h! Protecting the 18SS engine is a two-stage air
filter, providing a double layer of filtration protection to keep
the engine running safely and securely. An aluminium tuned pipe and
manifold keeps the power output high and gives the 18SS+ a menacing
growl!
The tough shaft drivetrain keeps rocks, twigs and other
foreign material out of the drive gears, giving you maximum
durability while you're blasting your car around with your friends.
As an extra level of strength, the diff gears are made from
hardened metal, as are the diff outdrives, providing an extra level
of security and durability. Everything is bolted to the 2.5mm
aluminium chassis for increased rigidity and strength. The
removable radio tray features an enclosed electronics area to
provide splash resistance for the receiver and battery pack.
Rubber-sealed ball bearings provide extra efficiency by keeping
everything running smoothly and efficiently. To aid adjustability
to suit any track conditions, adjustable oil-filled shocks are
used, plus turnbuckles are provided front and rear so you can
adjust front and rear camber, plus front toe.
For the discerning RC hobbyist, this is a kit that provides great value with maximum enjoyment. Provided unassembled with clear, concise instructions, the Nitro RS4 3 18SS + is a joy to assemble and run! No electronics are provided so you can install your favourite radio gear. A classic exotic sports car bodyshell is included in the kit; you get to choose from the all-time classic Lamborghini Countach or the vintage road racer 1968 Chevrolet Camaro! Each version also includes period-specific 'mag' type wheels and vintage racing tyres. There's no easier way to have one of the most desired sports cars the world has ever seen in your driveway! Customization is easy - any of the HPI touring, street or drift options will fit, from bodyshell, wheels and tyres to D-Box, drift conversion and Nitro 3-specific upgrades!
