I have been thinking of buyin one of these, I am not a Miata guy, but this is like the only body the M04M come with. Does anybody know of any other bodys that will fit on here. Post pictures of your cars and tips.

Thanks

Tamiya used to make a Honda S2000 kit with the M04 chassis.. I bet you can still get that body.. It will be a direct fit then...

Thanks lunchbox, you know where I could find it at, maybe ebay.

Yeah, it has been discontinued.. but you might still be able to find it online or eBay..

Here's the kit #s (copied from somewhere, not sure if they are correct, but I figured they are.. check w/ TamiyaUSA.com website if you don't trust them.. )

Looks like the S2000 chassis is the shortest one, while the Miata is the "M" size (length) while the BMW is the "L" version..

Similar to the M03 chassis, where the chassis length can be changed by getting different length chassis plate.. (the original Mini is the standard length, the new Mini is the L, I believe, and now the Suzuki Swift is the M)


58236: Honda S2000 - M04

58240: BMW M Roadster - M04L

58307: Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint - M04

58325: Eunos Roadster - M04M

You are gonna build a RWD Civic?!??!! Say what?!

Lol rear wheel drive civic, i thought about that lol. Yeah the car is built its great man. I just have to get a camera to post pics. Also I have been using the MX5 body right now, cause it was already ready. Holes were already cut, only thing I had to do was paint it. I painted it Blue Pearl.

The Honda S-MX lowdown van body fits it too, its kinda dumb looking, but I enjoy it.
