here ya go, a few shots there. hope it gives u an idea. yeh, the colour, im still not sure. but i can use pretty much any colour from any car. i work at autobarn, and can mix my own paint for cheap as. i just gotta put a plastic primer on first.

nope, havent painted yet, the diecast one is a ’04 subaru, so the bonnet will be different, and probably bigger.

i did have the intercooler glued to get the new pipes right, but its off now. the window and all lights are off, i just sat them on for dispay.

i havent even painted the intercooler yet, it came stock chrome with the sweet blue edge bits and “TRUST” on it. the pipes are off scrap 1/24 model kit, painted ages ago, but now that i look at it, im just gonna repaint the pipes gloss black and leave it at that.

oh, and the wings in my gallery are up for sale if anyone wants them. couple of dollars to cover postage would do.

[hakhawk]

sweet, thanks for that. now for some pics, so ppl can see them here.

oh, and nice subaru there z-beam. whats with those wheels on the green one? are they painted white?

[hakhawk]

hi guys, been doing some more work on it. i made new pipes for the intercooler now. starting to bog up lines i dont want. (slow boring process waiting for it to dry). got the body lowered, but i think i need to raise the rear end a bit (forgot about battery eight). the front wheels turn quite well without having to flair out the guards, but i think i might a bit. havent got heat gun, gonna try soldering iron barrel on low temp. check my gallery for more pics. oh, and how do i add pics into my posts? i also have a couple pics of the wings off the 1/24 cars i got and a comparison between one of them and the suby. dad and i are gonna go halves in a digital camera soon, so expect better pictures in the future.

lol, yeh, i have chopped off the pipes, and and putting shorter ones on. i do have a slightly bigger one with STI on it i could use 😀 i have decided not to remove grille. any tips on body modding and painting would be great.

[hakhawk]

nice idea, i got the intercooler off a diecast silvia. u know that topic i started on the diecast rc car, i found some non rc versions at the warehouse, bought a couple, good for a few odd bits. being 1/24, theyre a bit bigger than the iwaver, but its all good.

[hakhawk]

lookin great so far, lovin that camo paintwork

[hakhawk]

very tempting, but i should wait a few weeks, til after i get my big car on the road.

[hakhawk]

yeh, i found the non rc equivalent at the warehouse. $10 each, i grabbed a couple to see what theyre like. friggin heavy!! but excellent detail. i’ve been thinkin bout gettin aan xmod lately, what’re they worth?

[hakhawk]

yeh, i’ll probably go iwaver, oops, i just noticed my stuff up on the postage, its supposed to be $24

[hakhawk]

ok, yeh, not sure wat is out there in plastic. now its time 4 me 2 find cheap price on some of that green stuff. i have heard a friend mention it before, but i thought he just didnt know its name.

[hakhawk]

i found a few sites that sell some holden and ford resin kits. i cant remember the addys tho. search on this forum and its there somewhere. im gonna do one myself sometime. nice work on both cars too, oh and what body putty is that ur using?

yeh, i used to do playstation mods with a automotive iron, now thats fun. but i havent done much small stuff these days.

[hakhawk]

oh yeh, ur tellin me, the legs joined a few times, coz i was using a 2.5mm tip. i need a smaller one for these sort of things. now to spend more money on more upgrades.

[hakhawk]

yep, i went and gave it a go, before you posted. i found that white square, thanks priest. well on one side anyway, when i fried the stock fet, it lifted the copper under the fet. all fixed with a wire link. i am now running a 4×2 stack. i already unsoldered a coil end on one handwound motor, due to heat. now, im charging up my batteries, to see it at full pace. need motor heatsink, and somehow, to mount fet heatsink without glue. and i need a good bb motor case and endbell. ahh, the joys of micro rc’s. oh, and the wheel bearings in it now, so much smoother. should’ve got them ages ago. and thanks to aaron for the quick postage to me from the ausmicro shop.

[hakhawk]

ok, i got the parts, now, its an iwaver 01 board, how do i position the fets? same as iwaver 02? or different? pic would help.

[hakhawk]

cool, well i’ll probably get some fets, and finally get some bearings and wheel nuts while im at it. now i just gotta get paid.

[hakhawk]

yeh, theyre just a tryout pack for the $1000 a litre stuff. if u have friends that work at autopro, or autobarn like me, they can get em for u cheaper!! im gonna use some when i do a good body.
