  Pics of some of me vrooms just for the hell of it.
  
  Here’s my latest paint job, a two layer masked red and blue with a gun metal duplicolour paint on top. Not too bad, I’m still perfecting the process. This r-32 shell is a bugger to mask, especially the front windscreen.

  nice job ph2t, looks great, nice collection you got there, the blue 34 looks tough without its spoiler, and the famous light car. The paint job looks good, are you happy with it?

  nice one.
  you can get latex masking paint that you rub off with an eraser once sprayed.

  yeah, they look real sweet! love the r32, be getting one soon. the blue r34 looks good too, can you buy them separately? looks much better than the other r34.

  the 32 and 34 are both pullbacks.

  Yeah I like the pullback shells, they seem to have a better scale look than the shells that come with the RC cars. Mind you, the Gloria shell is pretty mad.

  Nice work ph2t, did you use the pullback wheels on the gloria? I did that for my AE86 but one side (gear side) sticks out more than the other. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

  Yeah, they’re pullbacks Prez. I had the same issue. You need to make a spacer on the other side (non gear side). Just get a normal rear wheel (again the non gear side) and carfully cut the nub off that. Then glue this to the pullback wheel (non gear side one obviously). I used a piece of wire as a jig to help centre the spacer when glueing it on using superglue. Cabowabo has done a great tutorial on this at bitpimps, I’ll find it and post a link.

  UPDATE: Pullback mod

  The mosfets are stacked on top of each other, in this mod I use 8 fets in total instead of the usual 4. The more fets stacked the lower the resistance and therefore the more ooompf in the motor.:p This mod is popular on mini-z’s.

  damn ph2t, thanks for the explanation and photo. How much more ooomph compared to a normal mosfet mod? Can you make another video like you did last time, but comparing mosfet with “twin double backflipped mosfet” or whatever you call it.
