Technical Performance

The Traxxas 4-Tec Drift Nissan 240SX Clear Body is engineered from high-impact polycarbonate material, the same durable compound used in professional RC racing worldwide. Clear polycarbonate offers superior impact resistance compared to painted bodies, meaning your investment is protected from the inevitable crashes and contact that come with aggressive drift driving. The body's construction is lightweight, which helps maintain the optimal balance and responsiveness your 4-Tec chassis requires for precise drift control. The fully trimmed design means every body line, panel gap, window opening and aerodynamic detail is factory-cut to perfection, eliminating the guesswork that comes with trimming bodies yourself. The integrated molded body accessories—including the aggressive front splitter, side skirts and rear diffuser—aren't just cosmetic; they're engineered to complement the aerodynamic performance of your 4-Tec platform. The pre-applied overspray film protection means you can paint with confidence, knowing your work won't be damaged during the painting process itself. With proper care and the recommended Traxxas ProGraphix paint system, this body will maintain its appearance through hundreds of drift sessions, track days and competitive events. The clipless mounting system is engineered for durability and ease of use, allowing you to swap bodies in seconds if you want to run multiple colour schemes or designs.
