peedee: if you can dry brush well do it, i have and it looks great if done subtly. clear coat afterward to protect the art…

‘prezza: masking sux bad, so painting windows with acrylic silver or black after a nice enamel spray like you said is my prefered technique. but just as before give it a clear coat afterward for nice shiny looks.

another tip for sprayers: tamiya coloured transparent gloss’ are an awesome creator of realistic depth. a metalic purple with blue transparent (2 coats) gives the deepest bleu you ever seen. candy green metalic ala my echo (or whatever) with blue on top results in a real nice jade green.

soon to see what the metallic purple with a pink transparent will result in.

i received 4 perf.heatsinks in m last order and the gold ones had a stoopid wide fan shape clip,
the black and silver….perfection,especialy with that nice bending tip. thanx micro.

the clone does fall a couple of mm short (and in bit terms thats quite a lot). the shells are nice but sitting next to the tomy ones the flaws show through…

me thinks the perfection company have a scam system of getting all of tomy’s slightly faulty pressing equipment hence the extra flash ( excess plastic along mold lines) and off center logos e.t.c. unfortunatly perfection didn’t get any of the chassis molds as a true clone of tomy sbcg’s would have been nice for modding and parts. the rims are nice and shiny but the unclip feature of sbcg aint there.

performance wise it’s the best clone available, but it aint as good as the enzo,contach or porche.

keeping it on permanant boost tho. half speed sux.

micro: the sbcg’s definatly have a litle more grunt in the power department, for steering and drive which is extremely welcome.

nooooo betty!!!!

the locksmith allready destroys many saws hacking up locks for you…

[z-beam]

yeah thanx micro, that info should be apart of a permanant database on our site…
just to keep it readily available for any newbes (and forgetful like myself ) in the future.

classic! a toyota engine in a lotus…

[z-beam]

wonder if tomy will bother making non super bcg’s any more? there are so many cars that need to be done…

[z-beam]

does it drain power faster tho?

[z-beam]

jamie. do you have a rear assembly i could purchase off you? i need a new motor housing bad!!! good luck with bustin the mini-z limits.

the highest voted request has been awnsered! the tomy gods have created a high speed tune up kit for super bcg.there is a technical one as well.

[z-beam]

got my enzo 2 days ago along with a murcilago and zero pullbacks. the high speed tune up kit for super bcg is great (contains a 3.0,two different gear sets, knuckles and suspension parts) and has everithing for you to change the performance straight away…

the enzo is not a booster. guess we’ll have to wait and see if the new lotus uses the funky extra buttons…

[z-beam]

ph, you still workin’ on this? i need to see it all working…

[z-beam]

on the tomy japan website (using altavista babelfish) there new relases for december had a lotus sbcg listing.

[z-beam]

confirmed: the perfection sbcg’s are on the freq’s stated. i got an awesome tomy enzo (40a) and there is no interferance fom the clone (40c).

murcilago shell looks so good and the blue tip 3.5 running with 12:1 gears is a dream come true.

[z-beam]

got me a super bcg speed upgrade pack, came with two sets of different gears, a pair of nice new knuckles, suspension parts and a tomy 3.0 motor for $8 usd! value plus.

any one got a list of the kit gear ratios to go with the bit gears?

[z-beam]

for a second i thought we’d been hacked again, basta rd on cristmas. got plenty of stuff to share, tis the year of the super bit!!!!

[z-beam]

happy new year all, had about an hours sleep but i’m still goin’. byron bay rocked, good food and an oldies party to crash and pilfer booze from. ran into paul (croc.d) hogan at the shindig
and saw george negus dance like a scarecrow….

nice shampimple went a walkies to the dance party in the street.. found out it was worth more than $60!!! tasted pretty good…

hope everyone had an awesome time. z

brendan was that a aerodynamic heat sink?

and nice avatar…

[z-beam]

i found with afx springs you can wind multiple springs together even at different lenghths to increase performance.

i’ll give my secret supply for all the community to enjoy… the locksmith! they all have a stash of small springs in different strengths they pull out of locks, as each one useally containes at least 4 of the same type. and if they are nice will sell em to you for cheeeeep!!!

plastic cement is awesome for this job, as it welds the plastic together.

[z-beam]

are plasma dash’s that much better than an x-speed?

is a titanium ball diff better than aluminium?

[z-beam]

Quote:

pic 4, the end.:smiley16: just remember, you want to wire the motors in parallel (ie connect all the + terminals together and the – terminals together, NOT end to end ; +-+-). if you do wire them in series the motors will just spin at half their normal speed:8ball:

half the speed, but any increase in power?

[z-beam]

i got one handy, where should the intakes go:
in the same position? if you have any sample pics of real cars give us a link.

i wonder if the super bcg rx7 is nicer than my clone shell……. oh well ican make it better.
