Rally-Ready 1/9 Replica from Kyosho

The Kyosho DRX Subaru Impreza WRC 2008 captures the feel of WRC competition in a 1/9 scale package. This Readyset includes the GXR18 nitro engine and delivers striking acceleration and realistic rally handling for both experienced drivers and newcomers looking to step into nitro rallying.

Built for Rally Conditions

The DRX is powered by the proven GXR18 engine with a recoil starter for reliable fire-up. A separate-type clutch sharpens throttle response while the long wheelbase and 3-differential full-time 4WD system keep the car stable across loose gravel and flowing tarmac turns.

Authentic Styling and Practical Details

The bodywork reproduces the Impreza WRC 2008 livery and includes attachable clear-lens headlights and full decal set. Rally-pattern pneumatic rubber tyres on matching wheels give the correct stance, while practical touches like a dust-proof radio box and a large air cleaner simplify maintenance.

Setup and Tuning Freedom

The DRX offers adjustable chassis height, tread and toe-in so you can tailor handling to the surface. Optional clutch springs and shoes let you refine power delivery, and the dual disk braking arrangement lets you balance front and rear braking for sharper lap times.

The Kyosho DRX Subaru Impreza WRC 2008 is a solid choice for hobbyists who want genuine rally character with room to tune and upgrade. Its robust drivetrain and realistic layout make it rewarding both on club tracks and practice runs.

The Readyset comes largely assembled and includes key parts pre-fitted, which lowers the barrier to entry. Novices should still learn basic nitro setup and safety before running.
With its full-time 4WD and adjustable suspension, the DRX performs well on gravel, dirt tracks and smooth tarmac. Tyre choice and setup changes help adapt it to each surface.
Fuel consumption depends on tuning and driving style; the 103cc tank offers substantial run sessions but actual duration varies. Monitor fuel level and engine temps for safe running.
Yes. The DRX accepts common upgrades like different clutch springs, shock oils, stabiliser kits and alternative tyres to refine handling and performance.
