Started building my SD3.0 kit last night and made progress very quick. I am at a stand still at the moment until I receive my steering knuckles and rear hubs, as well as an adapter for the front upper arms that I didn’t realize I needed. Everything has gone together incredibly smooth and I’m amazed by the quality of this kit, the instructions are spot on and couldn’t be better in my opinion. Will be building shocks today so they’re ready for install🤘

These drift cars are good looking with the carbon fiber and alumunum bits all matching!
The black and blue combo kind of cracks me up! It lets the competition know whats coming! 🤕🤣

Was this really a quick build or were you just so excited that you stayed up all night putting it together? 🤣
(That happens to me too.)👍

Its looking super so far!!! Very clean! 😍😎

They really are good looking rigs. I am a sucker when it comes to carbon fiber so having two carbon fiber drift rigs is pretty sweet. The matching aluminum is the cherry on top!😍 black and blue is my favorite combo so I guess it works for multipurpose 🤣

It really was quick! As long as you have an idea of what you’re doing. There were a couple times I thought I lost a spacers or a screw and ended just putting it in the wrong. I started building around 5pm and made it this far by 930pm so I’d say it’s pretty decent for time! I do have to build shocks and I’m at a stand still waiting for my steer king knuckles and rear hubs as well as my adapters for the front upper arms which I had no clue I needed.

Thank you!! Very happy with how it’s coming along. Will post more updates as I continue to build it! Super stoked for the final results! 😍🤤
