Compact Rally Replica Built by Kyosho

The Kyosho DRX Subaru Impreza WRC 2008 brings WRC styling into a 1/9 scale nitro platform. Featuring the GXR18 engine, this Readyset balances punchy acceleration with tunable handling for hobbyists who enjoy setup work and on-track practice.

Powertrain and Control

At the core is the GXR18 with a recoil starter to simplify engine starts. The separate-type clutch sharpens throttle response, while the 3-differential full-time 4WD layout and long wheelbase provide predictable stability when driving on loose or sealed surfaces.

True-to-Life Looks and Serviceability

The body reflects the 2008 Impreza WRC livery and comes with clear-lens headlights and decals. Pneumatic rally tyres mounted on wheels deliver a correct look, and features such as a dust-proof radio box and oversized air cleaner make routine servicing easier.

Tuning Range for Different Tracks

Owners can adjust ride height, track width and toe to suit different tracks. Optional clutch springs and shoes let you alter engagement characteristics, and independent front and rear dual disk brakes give you control over stopping balance.

For crews who value realistic handling and room to tune, the Kyosho DRX Subaru Impreza WRC 2008 provides a solid nitro rally platform that is both durable and adaptable.

Yes, its robust drivetrain and adjustability make it suitable for club-level rally and off-road events once you fine tune suspension and tyre choice.
Regular checks include air filter cleaning, clutch inspection and drivetrain lubrication. Keeping the radio box sealed helps prevent dust ingress on rough tracks.
Fine-tuning shock oil viscosity, fitting different tyre compounds and adjusting toe and camber are effective first steps for improving cornering and traction.
