Re: new project: Kyosho usa-1

what is this called and where can I get them? Metal-parts, one-way thing, I believe it is used to fasten the roll bar. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/1MyEgxJ6R1k4ZF1YHDv_m8LI21my1I2a0R-H5p9UxmOad3WkvxW_kBAUlhLlohYGNHFFi26H2SeF29iEfei-uj6hdUIiBrjnE4AikzNp_cS3uXy4_g2RqPZk7EFqyW7bjGXPkcR-n1Uuprt7Z8R...

Re: My "collection"

Yes, the mini-z turbo optima mid:) Quite easy. used the optima, and got a wing and wing stand for the mini-z lazer. The optima body need some modification to fit with the wing stay. optima wheels, and a little bit magic with photoshop will make the small decals. it's not exact scale, just testing. T...

Re: My "collection"

took some more photos. I found 4 ball diffs, 4 dampers (incomplete), and some spareparts for gold dampers. Took a photo of one of the carbon fibre chassis. I have no extra bodies, but that's easy to buy from marwan i guess:) Same with tires:) http://i380.photobucket.com/albums/oo247/oddi1981/1_zpsxm...

Re: My "collection"

Nice cars and I am especially jealous of your 240s. You need to add a Turbo Optima to put it in! thanks, I might build the nib turbo optima mid with all the futaba-electronics, and put in the 240 s..:) Or not. I paid a lot for the items on ebay (think the car and transmitter-set was sent from Japan...
