Welcome to Dazza's Garage! Its a bit of a work in progress, and I seem to be accumulating more projects than I'm completing these days. I'm going to try and get a photo of every car in my collection so I have a documented current state then I will continue to build them and update the photos as I go...

Next step is to make up an ATD diff, 2 speed gearbox, center bulkhead, front input shaft and K-Factory front one way. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/TXoAzqEMzV_pp6BowJF6KmzyHl_MpA3LZK_JF5QKuDMrHsfqoXsgEjQ_wmnFikbHuC3vvo4xWb_Xd98klSwBH_L8GUGjH5OaQNh3q82D0PTW9udOF0Va13oPFAsVLVDH2ZBS0JFgEwQqQUPeZnHI...

That’s always the same problem isn’t it? Just one more pass, just one more lap, just one more... oh sh_t, now it’s broken. At least you didn’t do too much damage. Oh and it’s looking real good so far!

For the rear end I used the matching set of Andys arms and more Du-Bro upper arm links. I'm still missing one, but hopefully I have one coming with a trade I'm working on. I was going to use MIP shiny CVD's for this build, but when going through the parts I found out my wheels wouldn't fit. As the w...

This has turned out amazing, have you hit the track with it yet?
And where did you get the carbon chassis?

I've rolled up a few steps into this one because I forgot to take a photo, but I installed Carbon chassis braces, K-factory shock mounts and carbon towers. The next step is to make up the suspension sets https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/rKvSVX0W5Z47QSuViIXkNa3_UMuEoyLdghHU4sbKESbOaP226NIzp7GSJmmEgM...

Shocks are now in and its getting closer to completion. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/Y9lgZitOqTf66XT6Hvxkik7QMRT41anUEwokY1ElqiotsZ3qKTp_9TgQUIgYIPUtlUaJGdXd45Hbw7tTBSBlH7uMcjFNngOZmjuMTjXTSRRBeQ4CaEXH5T1M2xcgukD0g-IOo2UVkH-Mxx5Hipts8Gu0lLyUmwUEOk5IULbxdvD2rHGsDPnQH6Zkxn5vojPRPu49eEuRfj7IsQCciE...

Step 2 - on to the building. First up is a rebuild of my original B4 Team kit that I purchased new a few years ago. I hardly used it at all and it has never had any parts replaced, so it doesn't have any carbon components, but the plastic all the parts are made from is much harder than the more mode...

Shocks are now in place, so I suppose its time to finish this one. Its only about 15 years since I first built this car; that should be sufficent time to ponder the correct sticker placement... Now where did I put that body. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/fv33wq-YnG1ri9KLSmLYd84rt7VKA07lrco_KS2VY...

Righto - on to the B4 Factory Team then. This is the only carbon chassis of all the B4's I have. It was in need of a tidy up with a bit of CA needing to be removed - this proved to be no problem with the Acetone on a cotton wool ball trick I learned here at RC10 Talk. I then used a bit of car wax to...

This is a very impressive build. Those K-Factory parts are very nice pieces. I hope you get this one completed and updated. Thanks! I have my OG NTC3 that I am thinking may need a rebuild. Thanks Lavigna - thats just the kind of comment I need to re-focus my attention on actually completing somethi...

I did a bit of a shuffle with the shocks - they are now in a collection of parts called "Factory Team TC3" which will one day find its way here. These are V2 shocks with the later version of unobtanium coated shafts that are gold instead of grey. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/ACtC-3...

So this is kind of where I'm at so far - I've built the K-factory 2speed and installed it on my motor. added a couple of servos and made up the steering links with some Lunsford titanium turnbuckles. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/ACtC-3c3mHZcdfoEOBQCdN6e9UxeR3eXQCdk2PdNHzUXWR5pINzdV5UwcmDqtvi...
