2Likes3Racing Sakura Zero S
Guess I was lucky... I got the last piece maybe. Wait for quite some time it will be available. This set comes neat with a very nice packaging. Compared to my TRF416 HL shocks, the Sakura aluminum shocks is shorter.

i havent built mine.. or started it. im hoping to start it tonite or tomorrow nite.
i think what overgear is saying is that the S kit is a better value.
even spending a few extra dollars on a couple important upgrades like the chassis and springs (i dont care about the chassis but the springs seem important) you will save money over buying the fully loaded zero model.
i paid 122 for my S kit shipped. granted im in the US. im not sure what prices are in malaysia.
but other than old tamiya tt01 kits, i dont know any other rc car you can get for that kind of money. especially one thats competative.

Take extra care while threading on the plastic parts - don't over tighten. Also it will be helpful to take note of the few mods which was posted earlier in this thread before you start the assembly. I built my friend's Sakura "S" with a 30,000cst Kyosho diff oil on the front and a 2,000cst Mugen diff oil on the rear. Still have to do some test this weekend if the diff action/reaction will be fair...

I would imagine the flex in this chassis will be pretty good for low traction tracks and I will not be surprised it will be more forgiving car to drive on low traction surfaces.
