Technical Performance

The Killer Body Subaru BRZ 190mm Clear Body is engineered from quality polycarbonate material that provides an excellent balance of strength, weight and workability. The clear polycarbonate construction allows light to pass through the body for a striking appearance before painting, and once painted, it provides a professional finish that showcases your chosen colour scheme. The body measures 257mm in wheelbase length and 195mm in width, making it compatible with a wide range of 1/10 scale touring car chassis platforms popular in the UK RC hobby market. The polycarbonate material is impact-resistant and durable, meaning your finished body can withstand the rigours of RC car bashing, racing and competitive use without cracking or splitting easily. All the included plastic components, from the chromed light buckets to the black structural parts like wing mirrors and number plates, are engineered to maintain their appearance and functionality through extended use. The Lexan-moulded front fender and rear spoiler components provide both aesthetic appeal and structural integrity, designed to flex slightly on impact without breaking. For builders who understand the requirements of RC touring cars, this body shell represents excellent value as a complete package that eliminates the need to source additional parts separately, saving time and money whilst ensuring all components are matched in design and quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What chassis will the Killer Body Subaru BRZ 190mm body fit? — This body shell is designed for 1/10 scale touring car chassis that have a wheelbase of 257mm and a width of approximately 195mm. You should check your chassis specifications carefully to ensure compatibility before purchasing. Common compatible platforms include those from manufacturers offering 1/10 touring car chassis in the UK market. If you're unsure whether your particular chassis is compatible, contact RC Model Shop's helpful team for advice.
• Is the Subaru BRZ clear body suitable for beginners to RC modelling? — This product is best suited to modellers who have some experience with RC car body shells and painting. The body arrives untrimmed and unpunched, meaning you need to cut and prepare it yourself, trim the window apertures and drill mounting holes to your specifications. If you're completely new to RC cars, you may find a fully prepared or ready-to-run RC car an easier starting point. However, if you're an experienced RC enthusiast looking for a custom build project, this shell offers excellent value and creative potential.
• What paint should I use on this polycarbonate body? — You should use paint specifically formulated for polycarbonate RC car bodies. Standard household paints or acrylic paints are not suitable as they may crack, peel or damage the polycarbonate material. Specialist RC body paints, available from RC hobby shops including RC Model Shop, are designed to adhere properly to polycarbonate and provide a professional finish. Always prepare the body with the supplied overspray film and window masks, and lightly sand the surface before painting for best results.
• Why is this body supplied clear and unpainted? — Supplying clear unpainted bodies allows modellers complete freedom over colour and design customisation. You can paint any colour scheme, add custom graphics, racing numbers or team colours that suit your specific build vision. This approach also keeps the product cost down compared to pre-painted alternatives, and appeals to serious RC modellers who want total creative control over their finished vehicle.
• What makes Killer Body shells different from other manufacturers? — Killer Body is recognised for exceptional attention to detail in their body designs, with accurate scaling and proportions based on the real vehicles they represent. The Subaru BRZ body includes premium components like chromed plastic parts and Lexan-moulded aerodynamic elements as standard, rather than as optional upgrades. The comprehensive parts package means you receive everything needed for a complete build in one kit, reducing the hassle of sourcing additional components separately.
• How do I attach the body to my touring car chassis? — The body shell is secured to your chassis using body clips, which are included in the parts bag. You'll need to drill mounting holes through the body shell to match your chassis's body post locations. The instruction sheet provides guidance on proper mounting technique. The included 3M double-sided tape and aluminium tape can be used to secure internal components and provide additional support if needed.
