At my local rc club we're starting a low budget class for newcomers with the tt10/tt02 chassis. The aim is to run it as is out of the box with the only upgrade being ball bearings. It's definitely been one of the most fun and relaxed classes.
That was just what i needed. Drive mostly high end Arrma bashers & speed runners but.... you cant beat the fun you'll get out of racing with either the Fazer or TT01 or TT02. So after borrowing a TT02 a the local club I'm super keen to pick up either of these rigs. And i knew Brett would be the man with all the info and knowledge. Cheers mate.
Same issue I'm dealing with now been working on an arma felony build. I'm looking to just have a smaller hobby grade rc drift car that I can build up the same. Can't decided over Kyoshin MK-2D or the Tamiya. I don't mind really having to modify/research I rather enjoy it. Kinda of leaning toward the Kyoshin. Any help/ input would be greatly appreciated!
I have more than 1 of each of these cars... TT02 is a kinda fun build , and can be fun to tinker and upgrade over time... nice to get a motor and esc i the kit, but to still not have kits with bearings in the box makes me wonder... maybe they know a lot of folks might jist build them mostly as models that they may or may not play with and drive a few times....lol With a few fairly inexpensive mods they can drive fairly nicely, bearings being number 1, oil shocks help, and i think one should right away add Yeah Racing or other adjustable steering links, and rear uprights wirh 2 or 3 degrees of toe in them , even with stock steering components elsewhere that really helped one of my tt02 cars drive much better. The steering on them is my least favorite part of the Tamiya. I also added the center driveshaft and drive cups, adjustable motor mount and like 25 or 26 tooth pinions, as well as direct servo horns in place of the servo saver . I have a Fazer RTR that is not ran a lot and driven with care due to the exquisite Skyline body, and also one that was a chasis kit.... mostly prebuilt, fill the diffs and shocks, add electronics, etc... that has front universals, which i really like ... the Fazer steering setup is pretty nice , and my kit one had metal ring and pinion for the diffs and were able to be fluid filled, which was a nice surprise... for 139usd it's a great chassis... Good cheap fun they both are... Next I hope to build an MB01 2wd Tamiya, but am waiting for that kit with a body shell i like, or to find an M body shell separately that i want in stock somewhere... Cheers!
Hi Brett, I love both these 2 chassis! Having played with both for a while, I can say I actually prefer the Fazer chassis as it is certainly more rigid and handles so much better! Not to mention that the quality of the plastics are much better than the ones on the TT02.

I think the Fazer is the better car but the best drift chassis choice would be the Yokomo RD2.0 www.hearnshobbies.com/products/yokomo-rookie-drift-rd2-0-rwd-drift-car-assembly-kit
I just took my Fazer out for the first time (first rc car in ten years) I dumped a 2s 5300 55c inside and took to the wet street. Wow… so much fun and it handles so well straight out the box
Great comparison 👍 have been looking for this kind of video. How does the quality feels between the two? I can see that the plastics differs by just looking at them. Subscribed 🙂
The Kyosho is the better deal, but that’s been typical in comparing RTR to kit offerings for some time. I LOVE Tamiya…unfortunately, they’re in decline as their onroad offerings are a shadow of what they once were. Also, I only need so many TT chassis; I miss their legacy TA and TB chassis that were kitted with bodies.
I personally think Tamiya needs to update their chassis designs and materials. I think Tamiya is more toy grade car, if you want something better you need to upgrade a lot or have deep pockets for the better versions.
Tamiya have a range of cars for different budgets. These are base level cars. If you want full spec then there is the TB EVO.8. Tamiya are one of the few companies that offer beginner to competition level cars.
The new tt02 fit a brushed/brushless esc that is worth more than the car itself. The rest is a very cheap car and lose compared to the fazer , some tt01e come out with such stuoid priced that , if u knkw what u are doing, u can get for the same price a very decent car
Fazer for sure. TT02 is too much of a toy imo. I don’t want to dump a ton of money trying to upgrade a toy. I once tried to upgrade a TT02 and honestly still didn’t like it. An out of the box Fazer is pretty darn good. I would much rather just go for an XV01 then waste time and money upgrading a TT02.

Good work! The Spec classes are great fun and have helped our local clubs grow in memberships.

What parts work with kyosho mk2 i have a mad van ve and what aluminum suspension arms etc
You will need to search the web for aftermarket aluminium parts.
What about the price compare?
If both of them ready to run
Pricing is similar.
I just took my Fazer out for the first time (first rc car in ten years) I dumped a 2s 5300 55c inside and took to the wet street.
Wow… so much fun and it handles so well straight out the box
Great to hear! Fazers are great value and offer surprisingly good performance.
I want other Body for my fazer mk2 but like killerbody they dont match. On each side the wheels stick a few millimeters out.
If the body is slightly wide you can use wheel shims to extend the track width.
@@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne its the other way, the body is a bit small
It that case get some narrower hexes.

Thank you for watching! The Fazer plastics are nicer.
Can both these cars take a 2s lipo 5000 mah?
Yes.
What's a dampener -are you wetting something?
Thank you for watching, however your comment has left a dampener to the happy mood.
@@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne are you mixing up damper and dampener?
Perhaps.

Kyosho better than tto2 or tt01 . Wider chassic I could say handle better on these corners!
We agree!

Yes, value for money is very much on the side of Fazer.
Fazer
The mighty Fazer!
TT02 100%
Cheers!
Kyosho with oil shocking mazing but tamiya tt02 or tt01 none! Silly.
Different cars, different specs.
Fazer for sure. TT02 is too much of a toy imo. I don’t want to dump a ton of money trying to upgrade a toy. I once tried to upgrade a TT02 and honestly still didn’t like it.
