HPI RS4 3 Drift modifications

thingiverse

Air filter intake pipe. This is a simple modification for the HPI RS4 3 Drift nitro car air intake. The factory fitted rubber pipe bend needs to be turned upside down and needs to face forward. A hole (size depends on air filter diameter) needs to be cut in the hood of the car body. I prefer to use the k&n breather filter, but don't forget air filter oil! Ps.. This is my very first design :) Front splitter. I felt the front end of the car could do with a little more protection against curbs so I designed this splitter. It protects the nose of the car by absorbing most of the impacts through the foam bumper which it is mounted to. You'll need to cut the shell in the front to accommodate the splitter. It then simply fits at the bottom of the foam bumper using screws. It was printed using support set to everywhere. Rear splitter and tail pipe. The rear splitter was initially also made to help protect against bumps but I soon got tired of the oil that splashes all over the inside of the shell.The car still uses the factory exhaust and this part only replaces the aluminum pipe that was fitted to the exhaust. Once again you"ll have to cut the shell to accommodate this part. Support was set to "touching build plate".I printed it using carbon fiber pla and so far it hasn't melted :) *NOTE.. The exhaust pipe seems to break because of vibration. I"ll update this part as soon as I'm done with modifications to it. Exhaust bracket. This is a simple bracket I made to accommodate a side mounted exhaust pipe. The bracket worked fine but I wasn't happy with the performance of the pipe I used so I completely removed it from my car.
