Kyosho Gen 1 Ultima Resto-Mod

I wanted a vintage runner, so instead of the RC10's i normally build and have 100 billion parts for, i decided to go with a vintage Kyosho Ultima. Just a Classic car, with the styling and heritage.. Installed a A&L Lethal weapon transmission with slipper, custom made carbon fiber shock towers and upper deck, aftermarket shocks with kyosho rb5 springs, Andy's Front's Wide Arms, Tower ST-15 Front Bulkheads, Ultima RB5 Front Hubs and Carriers (to use hex front axles), and HPI Chrome Wheels (fronts are cut to fit narrow tires), along with a narrow servo, custom made steering setup, and LRP Sphere ESC, and Novak Brushless motor.

  1. Mike,
    That’s a beautiful car.

    I am looking for information on where to find parts for a Kyosho Gen 1 Ultima (1987).

    Any information you could share would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you
    Paul
