Scaled Drift Heritage: Yokomo DPM-REA Featuring RE Amemiya Design

The Yokomo DPM-REA celebrates the RE Amemiya RX-7 in a 1/16 scale assembly kit that balances scale fidelity with practical drift mechanics. It is aimed at modellers who want a period-correct look matched to a chassis that encourages progressive setup work.

Balance of Looks and Control

The DPM-REA reproduces RE Amemiya graphics and body cues while providing a chassis tuned for controllable slides. The full-time 4WD and independent suspension make it easier to manage drift transitions and maintain line through corners.

Technical Layout and Materials

Constructed around a high-strength composite base, the kit features solid axles and an adjustable double-wishbone suspension to replicate realistic drift dynamics. The shaft-driven 4WD spreads torque for steady traction across turns.

Personalisation and Competitive Tuning

Hobbyists can pursue upgrades across electronics, gearing, and suspension to refine handling and power delivery. The DPM-REA offers a sensible platform for both display builds and competitive drifting.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.
Basic hand tools and a small hex driver set are sufficient for assembly, though a fine paintbrush and masking tape help for finishing the bodywork.
Increasing front steering throw and using a responsive servo with a good horn ratio will help achieve larger drift angles while keeping steering feel predictable.
Inspect shaft, gears, and bearings after every few sessions and replace parts showing wear to maintain smooth power delivery and prevent failure during runs.
