Hello Guys,
I own a Yellow FJ Cruiser 2007 and I just bought a Yellow Nikko FJ Cruiser body and I'm wondering what it would be my best option in chassis for an original looking between Axial SCX10 and Tamiya CC01.
I have to say that I'm really new in this hobby and I will need to buy any of those two options.
Thanks!!

Hello fellow FJer. I'd recommend the CC-01 for the Nikko FJ body. The suspension is more accurate for the FJ. Well, the CC-01 is coilover in the rear, but close enough. If you set the chassis to the long wheelbase option of 10.5" the body lines up too.

^^ If you decide to buy the CC01, which like mentioned earlier, is the most accurate in terms of scale to the 1:1 FJ Cruiser, then will have little problems mounting the body. It's just a matter of extending the wheelbase to 10.5". The two options available now for the CC-01 are 9.5" to 10" in stock form. So the only thing you'll need is an extended propeller shaft.

Where did you get the rims and tires? What size are those?

The rims I used are integy 8 hole 1.9 wheels. The tires are RC4WD invaders. They originally come as 1.55 so I cut the tread off and fitted it to 1.9 sidewalls. A lot of work but it was the closest match to my real tires.

This time next week I'll be in Colorado for FJ Summit 9. I've been working on getting my little FJ Cruiser ready for the trip.
I started by molding a clear windshield and front windows.
Expedition One rear bumper was next. I installed the full size one 2 years ago so I've been slacking.
License plates from Krawler Konceptz and found a suitable rear wiper.
Dashboard was the last major improvement.
