The DT02MS is a fully hopped up DT02 chassis. The TRF stickers are there because the MS stands for Maezumi Satoshi and the paint scheme is a replica of his car, which includes the TRF stickers everywhere. It's a limited edition model but it's hard to tell whether the MS replica paint scheme body is prepainted - my Japanese is none existent but web translations do hint at it.
Alloy shocks, ball diff, UJs, turnbuckles, ballraced, motor heatsink (on the 540!) Priced with an rrp of 21000yen, expect to find it in Japan for £60 so very good value for money, but obviously not designed for the serious racer.
