I have this model and it's really nice. But I still don't have any controllers yet so no run's to let you know.
I have been told that you can go inch-up on the Subaru as there's plenty room for it. I've found a source for the colored wheels I wanted for this model. The Subaru's stock wheel sizes are 18's all around, but I'm going to run mine with gold 19's.
I'm also curious as how best to set this one up.
Traditionally, the Subaru WRX is AWD, but since we don't have AWD Dnano's yet, how would it be set up to act like AWD? Gyro might help, stiff springs up front, stiff T-plate in back? Any tip's on the differential setting? Would a disc-damper help the Subaru achieve AWD-like handling?
I do know it's a skinny and long body and I predict it's prone to flipping much like it's larger counterpart.

does anyone have pics of this body with the race wheels and tires on it?... I think it looks SO much better with the chassis wheels and tires on the car... the wheels fill out the wells WAY better, and of course, they look like scale 19-inch wheels...

Ya.. that looks WAY better than the Autoscale wheels... even the stock race wheels (that come with the chassis) look better.. there's not enough offset on the autoscale wheels
BTW.. nice Motul Nissan in the back
