here is some more info.. from duratrax.. added this morining to their site
I want one. Are there many hot up part available for it ?
Quote:Who have you asked…I’ve phoned around to some carpet places plus clark rubber because they have a small carpet section as well.
When I mention ‘ozite’ they say they’ve never heard of it.
Also google is my friend.
Quote:kevsta, speak of the devil!! does your GT3 shell take wide wheels? ..and where did you come across a metal motor clip that fits a stock plastic mount? ps, blew up my damned peugeot (real car)but hope to get down to meadowbank sometime soon; anyone sorted a track for down there??That GT3 body came with my ready set which was narrow wheels alround. However, the later tourer type porsches eg. taisan come with wide rears. You could dremel the inside of the wheel arches I guess if you really want to run wide rears with it.
You’re going to bring back some bad memories of it being run over by the bike.
That metal motor mount clip is available from most mini-z online retailers.
How did you blow up your peugeot ? Who were you racing with this time ? 🙂
Got mine as well, thanks !
🙂
Pete, I think it’s called ozite racing carpet.
Which isn’t available here it seems.
However, having said this, there is a mob down in melbourne that specialises in the manufacture of automotive carpet – I think it’ll be the same carpet used to line the car boot. But I think it’ll be pretty expensive. So that is why I think it would be more economical to look at felt like carpet or material if available in large lengths and widths.
Gotta check the mail box tonight…
How about visiting some of Sydney’s local carpet places ? Buy some “felt” like looking carpet, then get some of that white foamy stuff and adhesive velcro strips and be done with it ?
Or we all just buy hosing or rope and join them up ?
Quote:thanx N-hawk, broke my plastic motor clip so this should be the way to go! i`ll ask around with the sydney/meadowbank guys and see what i can come up with. ps,what is done to the modified motor mount, and where`s your side of the fishing hole?I know the feeling, I broke mine the yesterday as well, simply trying to take it off and the clip just snapped :evil:.
Fortunately, I had a spare one of those metal clips that fit on the standard motor mount :).
Another group buy would be good – but who with ? bithed ?

Quote:guess who’s back… back again… Geo’s back… tell your friends… has been a while dude, lookin forward to seing you down there. Bring a Bit too, it seems…:question::smiley2:Excellent, he’s back. It’s been a bit dead over on the courts lately I must add with only a handful of us turning up.
Geo-z, we’ve all got turbo and standard cars now… so you won’t be alone with that whisper quite ultra fast z of yours.
😀
Quote:Im guessing that motor is for FETs or a Turbo??The way I read into it, is that they don’t mention fets or turbo required. Then further say it is for all i-wavers and z’s. They only compare it to the kyosho x-speed motor…
But who knows…
I’d like to order one perhaps next month or so, already depleted the rc budget for this month.
Yes. Please lock it and delete it if it can free up some valuable disk space.
🙂
So has anyone got one of these non turbo motors yet ?
Wouldn’t mind hearing a review of it compared to the kyosho x-speed.
🙂
I’ll be there as long as it doesn’t rain.
I’ve got a new motor that’s begging to be run in the benz – not a pd. Having issues at the moment getting the 12t pinion to mesh properly with the spur gear.
My skylines been lowered, and I’ve cut off the front spoiler off of it with the dremel – because I’m sure it would affect handling/performance when it scrapes the ground.
dgs, will bring those rear damper springs that you wanted.
Who keeps bumping this post ? Forum Rule #101 says no intentional bumping of posts.
🙂Quote:I am familiar with the adjustable model and agree that it is probably one of the best out there. But I need one that does not hang lower than the stock low-mount for my application.The one I’m wondering about now it this one:

Thanks,
N-HawkThe one in your pic looks identical to the TopCad alloy motor mount.
Quote:I am having serious trouble believeing those dyno results…..Hmm… 60,000 rpm under no load sounds impressive and the design being patented and all..
Still, I’ll end up buying one anyway just to see how it’ll go…
Quote:Quote:no man these are the digi q clones, they shoot a infra red beam which disables the other tankreal fun, esp when been drinking LOL
this is true… there is a quite a bit of stuff in the box, you can set up a “battlefield” on any table, etc. which will make hits to your opponent a little harder to pull off. The adding of alcohol to the mix just makes it that much more fun…:smiley2: I’ll get the grog, see you next week:p

TD’s bit track would be a great battlefield, all that rugged terrain and forest just waiting to be trampled over by tanks…
🙂
Quote:yeah sweet dude wish i could go to urs on sat but!got my sisters wedding this saturday!
next sunday we wil have a battle with those babies at urs dude, by the end of it i bet u will want some of ur own lol
Are they the ones that are suppose to shoot a ball bearing 25 metres ?
🙂
They look like yabbies to me, big ones at that.
On the subject of slang…
There is a scene in Finding Nemo where the dentist says “I got to see a man about a wallaby…” Next scene shows the toilet flushing…
Is this slang like “I got to go drain the snake ?”.
I’ve never heard of those slang terms for money.
Not sure if these error message help at all…

Quote:i hope the gt40 body is good, i liked the skyline gtr iwaver bodies.Might have a good look at your gt40 body before I order one. Do you know if its a wide body or narrow ?
The only good i-waver body I’ve found so far is the skyline gtr. The Benz and Ferrari 355 bodies need to have dremel work and possibly hair dryer treatment.
K.
Nice alloys DGS, thanks.
:smiley16:I think this thread has gone on long enough.
Quote:Hey, i’m considering buying a dig-q tank from toyeast, to strip the guts out of and fix my tiger!-What is the shipping like?
-How quick is the postage??
Thanks
Shipping rates are similar to hong kong online retailers – everything driven by weight. You can find out actual price by going to the checkout section after selecting your goods.
Packaging is great, it’s all bubble wrapped and placed in a hard cardboard boxes. So your parts arrive safely.
Postage is about 8-9 days registered air mail to Sydney. Don’t know about EMS – never used it coz it seems so expensive, and I usually don’t require parts “urgently”.
Quote:looks like one of those toys r us rc cars?put a bigger motor in it dude! DO IT DO IT DO IT you know u wanna
:pYep, they are toys… These are some of the presents my son got for his birthday. All my bcgs are ready for him when he gets a little older. He’s already dropped and cracked a bcg contoller, bent and snapped two tx telescopic antennas, stuffed up two bcg clone shells by throwing them in a tantrum (as young toddlers do).
But he knows the Mini-z’s are mine.
I’m pretty sure I can get air with one of them. I’ve run one off the sofa on to the tiled floor – seems like they can take a bit of beating.
