DarkDragonWing's RC Modify crew is on a mission to recreate Sean's iconic red EVO from Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift, meticulously detailing every aspect of the build. Starting with a Green Light die-cast model of Sean's 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 9, the team dives into the project with an EVO 8 body kit, various components, and a wide-body kit for that authentic touch. As they tackle the assembly on an M-Drift 2 chassis, attention to detail is key, from LED lights and spoilers to an exhaust system, ensuring a realistic and top-notch finish.
The team doesn't cut corners when it comes to safety and functionality, using a lipo bag for the battery, a metal case for storage, and carefully programming the ESC for optimal performance. Wiring is meticulously planned, with components like the engine sound strategically positioned within the spacious body. Each step, from clamping wires with new terminals to adding a switch for the LED lights, is executed with precision and expertise.
The bodywork process is a labor of love, involving intricate cutting, painting, and assembly to achieve a flawless result. Techniques like precise painting, masking, and sticker application are employed to bring out the best in the model. Custom vinyl stickers, painted wheels, and 3D-printed parts like spoilers and front splitters add a touch of individuality to the build. With a keen eye for detail, the team ensures that every component, from light buckets to exhaust mufflers, is mounted with care and precision for a stunning final product that captures the essence of Sean's red EVO.
