Rêve D MC-1 conversion kit

Rêve D have announced the upcoming release of their new MC-1 conversion kit for the YD-2. The car that won the R.C.D.C. All Japan E-Drift Championship as a prototype is finally ready. Rêve D main designer Hayato Matsuzaki, together with the development team and team drivers all worked together to further refine the kit and after almost a year it’s ready. 2.5mm thick carbon material is used for the main chassis, upper deck & vertical deck to optimise pitch & roll rigidity. The aluminium gear case, which has succeeded in reducing the weight to the utmost while maintaining rigidity, has been designed so that the gear differential unit can be easily attached and detached, achieving outstanding maintainability. The new motor plate design allows you to select the motor height in 3 steps without removing the spur gear unit, making it easy to change the settings. The MC-1 conversion will be available in 2 versions, the slide rack spec or the bell crank (wiper) spec.
