is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that the MM chassis is a longer wheelbase than it’s RM brother by about 5-6mm? Got the SLR AMG Merc ASC the other day, and like the Enzo its kinda long… might have to do this mod to fit it. Nice job though ph2t:approve:

[dgs73]

that is INSANE. Absolutely love it. Have only seen the first of the two vids, but will be checking out the other tomorrow… hoping its as cool as the first one… which i’ll guess now that it is…:smiley2::D

[dgs73]

same Z, different angle… not a bad effort this paint job…

[dgs73]

at Pete’s request, here’s another one… how many Trueno fans we got on this site then?:smiley2:

I know you have not taken the time to look at the galleries yet and ive seen those cars before….

Why not go have a look see :smiley2:

yes, you have, and i may have posted them up elsewhere. This way if someone wants to see them they dont have to spend half an hour looking for the specified topic… i put them up for anyone who has’nt seen them.:smiley2::D

and more again… what you think of the body work Z beam?

[dgs73]

here’s some more inch-ups to drool over… not Square product though…

[dgs73]

yea i’m gonna jump on that queue now while i can still see the front…

[dgs73]

that last one ROCKS…

[dgs73]

look forward to drilling and tapping all your motor cans that dont have the two mount holes… ie. 90% of mini z motors…

[dgs73]

no need, i know the one… white box… second gen.

[dgs73]

James; done be pedantic. You know i meant neo magnets… :smiley2:

[dgs73]

i’m in for a pn so3…

[dgs73]

that’s a good idea… but what if you need offset, say, on the front rims?

[dgs73]

been a while since i put bearings in mine… your link is for 01/02… they come in a pack of nine… you need 5 6×3 for front wheels and one in the diff side of the rear, 2 8(?)x3 which go through the rear pod where the diff goes through, and the 2 tiny ones go in the gearbox… they’re available on the bay but have’nt seen any in a while. I’ll go look and send you a link…

[dgs73]

02 iwaver or kyosho? Either way that’s gotta be annoying…

[dgs73]

at this point azza, shauny still has a stock diff i believe… shaun; 01 S2K? In the old brown box? where abouts? Online or hobby shop? azza; try throwing some titanium grease in there, the difference is awesome.

[dgs73]

i think z-beam’s point was you’ll have a hard time getting an iwaver02 pcb by it’s self, because no-ones likely to want to sell one and be left with an empty iwaver chassis (and who would?)… why not just get a chassis complete, minus tx and shell? Still cheap…

plus hair and carpet builds up between the motor mount and the diff plate… remarkable the amount of fluff that can be picked up in just a half an hour… 20 degree or lower tyres will help, but keep em clean and dust free

[dgs73]

or you could just add bearings and neo brushes to the existing P.D. can (that one is up to you)

[dgs73]

hmmm. Odd. Try adding a ball diff to the mix like Jamie sez, then see how you go. Bearings are a must have as well…

[dgs73]

you mean the storm photo? Was emailed to me a couple of days ago… TD; think structural strength… plus should (will!) add a degree of difficulty to the layout…:p

[dgs73]

very tasty pics… top notch job there:approve:

[dgs73]

like mocky sez; check how tight your wheel nuts on the front are (too much pressure on the stock bushes prevents the wheels spinning freely; one nut on front may be tighter than the other). This does not sound like a diff problem, as it goes forward for a while before going off-track. A ball diff will help the handling issues, but this sounds like it might be a problem elsewhere. Where in Oz are ya shauny?

[dgs73]

…and i’m back. Oh look!!! There we go!!!:D
