So may I ask: How did you manage to make such an accurate looking replica? Did you measure the original? Did you spend lots of time comparing pictures?
It tooks about 2 weeks to design it. I estimate dimensions from some photos and calculate it between some parts I can buy. Such as wheels, kyosho optima parts, battery, and so on. I use photo shop to amend the originals pictures. After that, I designed it with solid works.

The original uses lots of yokomo 870c parts. Fortunately Kyosho optima parts are looks simular by 870c. (knuckles, hub carriers)

I don't know the exact dimensions, so I used specs of late-type Ryuz models(may be..) that I could find from internet. Total length, width, wheelbase, ETC.

Thank you!
