Yokomo DP-HKS Drift Platform Explained

The Yokomo DP-HKS is built for modellers who value authentic presentation and controllable drift dynamics. The HKS Hyper Silvia S15 styling mirrors the RS-2 look while the kit layout supports detailed setup work for lining up competitive slides or display-quality builds.

Underpinnings: MR-4TC SD Chassis

This molded MR-4TC SD chassis brings a racing-informed suspension layout to the kit, featuring a shaft-driven full-time 4WD system for steady power transfer. Adjustable double-wishbone suspension and tie-rod turnbuckles allow setup changes to suit different circuit conditions and driving techniques.

Drift Control with Tyres and Shocks

Fitted with Yokomo Super Drift tyres, the kit focuses on predictable breakaway and controllable slip. Composite shock absorbers with adjustable damping permit fine tuning of weight transfer and slide character for corner-to-corner consistency.

Appearance and Accessory Detail

The model includes hallmark styling such as a GT wing, aerodynamic mirrors and narrow chrome 3-spoke wheels. Detailed decals plus accessory items like exhausts and brake rotors enhance the finished model for shows or shelf display.

What should I check before my first run?

Verify tightness of screws and wheel nuts, check gear mesh and battery fit, and test steering centring and throttle response at low power before attempting full drifts.

Can I fit upgraded differentials or bearings?

Yes, swapping to higher-quality bearings and optional diff components can improve longevity and smoothness, particularly under frequent sliding conditions.

Is this kit suitable for club-level drifting?

With careful setup and appropriate electronics, the chassis is capable of club competition and practice sessions focused on drift lines and style.

What paint works best on the clear polycarbonate body?

Use paints formulated for polycarbonate shells, applied in thin layers. Allow adequate curing between coats and use masking for interior trim and window areas.
