    Aren’t the stock seats in the US WRX sparco seats made in the sparco factory for them? I know for sure the steering wheel is momo and im pretty sure i heard the seats are sparco. I thought about getting on for awhile but for 24 grand i reconsidered. But it’s worth it for the 227 horses and 13.5 punds of boost stock. Dave

    I just got a 92-95 (i think) model mustang gt and a newer body style camaro body from HO slot cars and im planning on finishing the conversion to fit the bit chassis in about a week or two. I will keep you guys posted, hopefully the camaro turns out but i doubt the mustang will. Dave

    Well i dont really have a extra controller to swap the antenna but yesterday i did a range check and got 26.5 feet with the standard controller (35 mhz) and then i got 5.8 feet with the 4 band controller. I only use the turbo skyline for racing on my track but otherwise i put my 3.0 in my lancer and im as happy as a pig in mud. Keep posting those great mods though. Dave

    Actually, I kinda like my seats. Although the euro spec seat look pretty nice. Don’t know what Aussie spec seats look like.Did you wantthe STi seats? They’re nice, but for the price, I’d rather get Sparcos.

    Ive ordered 5 times from stellamodels and it took 10 days average to get to NJ, USA.

    I got my 3.8 motors from JO a.k.a.R10725, and that took less than a week, literally. I dunno how he does it so quickly from HK. He sent me the dark blue motor by accident once, and when I told him, he immed sent me another pink 3.8 motor at no charge, and let me keep the dark blue motor for free. real cool guy, he is.

    The drift axle is for joyriding. It isnt meant for racing. The hard tires on your front axles are great for racing at high speeds. The grooved hard tires kick butt with faster motors, esp the 3.0 and 3.8 motors. They dont matter as much with the slower motors.

    It depends on the track surface and how good you are at drift-style driving. But probably not the best choice for a race.

    those links won’t take you directly to the threads, they only take you to the main page of the forum.

    No–you’re right, it’s not the OEM bullet… it’s being called the ODM Bullet. At least, that’s what Toy East.com is calling it.

    As you can see in those pictures, it’s also called the Bit ChargE Smart Car. Here’s some relevant threads:

    the hobby shop in my area has something like that in stock. The mouse-shape controller and the chassis (mercede) are exactly the same but no headlights and the package looks different. They are $20 USD a piece.

    hey mcojoc. the antenna switch mod made a noticeable difference in that i have no dead spots at all on the track we race at. it also seemed to give me about 3 feet more of range, so we could make a bigger track and i could still reach. b

    Stuff from HK or Japan typically takes about a week.

    If your pool table and your carpet have the same surface, you either have a crappy pool table, or a crappy carpet :smiley8:(I really need a LOL emoticon).

    so you really dont wanna do a race with that drifting set on right? since the bitcharg would probably spins out when you try to turn?

    It kinda dumbs down your performance actually. Its grooved so that you get forward traction, but when you make turns you get drift action! Think bitcharg + powerwheels! Remember those?! Works best on slick surfaces like linoleum or a smooth desk! Loads of fun. Like zeroBXU said its like ice skating with bitchargs! hehe. There is a front end drift axle for bitracers (the one that comes with the cool looking white tires) but you need to do a mod to get it onto a bitcharg.
