Introducing: The Meanest Looking Custom Built Skyline R34 GTR 1/7th Scale Remote Control RC Car

Passion, It's the thing that drives us to achieve. The push we feel to dare to dream something, ideal, and then manifest that vision into reality. For anyone who's ever fallen head over heels into an engine bay, or body work, or getting your car track ready, YOU KNOW that feeling that drives you to customize and make things as you feel they should be. Your intuition is second to none.  RC Car Skyline GTR R34 Custom Built Remote Control Car This GTR is no different from any of the other incredible cars featured on this site ( just look around; there's red ones , blue ones , silver ones , white ones , black ones ) - except for one, small, detail. - It's 1/7th the size! You wouldn't be able to fit inside it, but it still rips around like a GTR should, and is a whole lot of fun to drive I'm sure, and the customization on this build is phenomenal.  Nissan Skyline GTR RC Car Rear End Spotted on the RC sub, user XJuggernaut101 shared their build story with us of ho

Japan: Ruddel Sports 16V

Following yesterdays hot find, there was one more. But this time based around a well known VW shop within the Matsuyama city limits.

This Golf GTI was built several years ago. Built to compete in a Euro race series up at Okayama Circuit though has made some short appearances at small tracks around Shikoku Island.

The body on this car has been lightened up big time with reproduction Carbon Kevlar front, rear bumpers, front fenders, FRP bonnet and finally extremely lightweight high quality acrylic side and rear glass. Final total weight around 850KG. Now that is super light!

The 16V has been well tuned as seen. Originally all parts were brought in from Germany and assembled at the Ruddel shop. Net power is said to be around 260PS at the motor. Werent these cars like 150 out of the box...wow!

Finally the cockpit. This car is as fierce inside as it looks under the hood. Fitted with a cage, dry carbon door panel covers, plated foot-well, Sparco race seats and more. So many ideas have popped into my head since viewing this car. I think the Silvia is getting a few extra's soon :-)
