Has anyone else noticed this? What sticker kit do I have? Did GT2’s come as factory team kits that I’m unaware of?
I’m not sure I understand your question correctly? They did sell a factory team truck and a RTR model. Or is it just your sticker set doesn’t match any you have or seen? It looks like it’s basically the same as the one I have.
GT2's came as an RTR (kit # 7092) and a Factory Team (kit # 7080). Your #7999 decal sheet would have come in the box with the FT kit whereas (obviously) the RTR decals were pre-applied.
Sign Shops and Print Shops as you found aren't equipped to print on clear vinyl. You can search online for "clear decal printing", as some of the shops are only about an hour from you. But the problem you're going to run into is if (when) they ask for a copyright release. Could also try talking to Nathanial at MCI, being in Canada he doesn't have that problem.
I’m gonna let go 1 or 2 of my GT2’s and one of them is a bit “special.”
One has a display clear plexi top and a black body with black chassis, blue exhaust. The other the body was cut on the windshield badly and I wanted to include a new sticker - seeing as the piece that was cut out is still in the box. It could easily be covered up or repaired for a shelf/display car.
I would just cut out the side window and clean up that front hole with a dremel and call it good. It’s better for nitros to have more breathing anyway so I wouldn’t even worry about closing up the hole.

Do you think it’s more likely this would be a shelf car for someone or do you think they would use it?
I don’t think there are many “collectors” of GT2s. Let alone rtr version models. I would think there’s a much larger market that plans on using the truck than shelf it. I’m almost embarrassed having that body sitting on a used chassis on my display shelf.
Hello again, I'm trying to build a 1/64 scale tamiya king cab tribute but cant find any scans of a decal sheet. Does anyone have a high quality (ish) scan?

See if this will work for you. It is 120mb, so I may have to size that a bit.
Legend! Thank you! I should be able to work with that.
Hey everyone. Just wondering if anyone has (or could get) a high res scan of the Kyosho Outlaw truck decal sheet.
Talked with Nathaniel @ MCI_Racing and he said he could make repro decals for this if he had a good scan.
Planning on building one soon...

Myles @ tamkyo-reprodecals (ebay) has scans, but they are not to make any prints in near future they say.
alright, to my eyes... just looking at pics on the internet, the b4 and gt2 castor block look the same. other than the fact that the gt2 block has an extra camber hole and the distance between the hinge pin and king pin is spread out more. is my...

Yes 25 degree castors will give you zero (30) on rc10. If you use them backwards still zero (30). I have mine reversed to center the trailing axle on the arm better.
First on tap was to replace the chassis on my TA-03 Piaa Porsche GT2. There is a guy on eBay blowing out these chassis for $32.80 so I had to pick one up. The switch out was straight forward and really it simplifies the chassis.
