That looks sweet. That is a great find. I picked up an Optima Mid SE a while back but no where near that nice.

This thread is about two Optima Mid models in the SWB segment. One Turbo Optima Mid and one Turbo Optima Mid SE being built side by side (those two yellow cars in the picture above).

Parts are taken from several mid cars I have in various shape....

The build thread still lives on here

I referred to it many times during my ongoing Turbo Optima Mid SE thread.

Thanks for hosting all of that! It is such a bummer when images go away and I appreciate you archiving posts like this.

I am an RC10 guy, but always liked the Ultima and Optima series that Kyosho produced. I don't know much about them though. I always wanted a 4wd buggy since the later 80s, but never did end up with one.

Lately, I have been contemplating weather or...

Just got it, never had one as I have always been a Tamiya/RC10 guy. Like I said, I think its a Mid SE. Pretty complete but I am now realizing the front bumper is going to be hard to find. Anyone have one? :lol:

Last post

bdrmbully- Its no problem thanks for getting back to me. I would be interested in the factory one, get back to me whenever it is convenient.

Coelacanth- yup looking for all new screws too!

Thanks for the info and offers.

Looks very nice

I have a soft spot for the SE as its the only NIC RC Car I owned 20 years ago after wanting one for an eternity

I recently built one up from scratch though its only loosely an SE now

Look forward to seeing progress
