Drift culture has become a hobby staple, and RC models let you explore car control in a smaller package. The Tamiya 58386 NISMO Coppermix Silvia on a TT-01D chassis brings authentic drift styling and a chassis built for sliding tactics.
Debuted at the 2005 NISMO Festival at Fuji Speedway, the Coppermix Silvia is a tuned, road-legal S15 that made waves on drift circuits. Its silver finish with red and black detailing is recognisable among fans and model builders.
Drifting relies on controlling the rear slip angle while maintaining momentum through turns. With an RC drift kit you can experiment with throttle inputs, steering correction and weight transfer without the high costs of full-size racing.
The TT-01D chassis is tailored for drifting. It arrives with drift tyres that hit the balance between traction and controlled slip and are pre-mounted to save time. The platform also includes adjustable suspension settings, full ball bearings, a sport-tuned motor and an aluminium heat sink to reduce heat. The shaft-driven 4WD bathtub layout adds stability, while independent double wishbone suspension and sealed diffs support precise corner control.
Tamiya 58386 NISMO Coppermix Silvia is well suited to RC fans who want a tunable drift platform; the kit builds nicely and rewards sensible setup changes on the track.
