Looking for an ID and specs on this old fantom motor. Its been in a box for years. installed it in my rc10ce a while back and ran it a few times. car seems to move really well with it. just curious what this is. In the last pic, its says ROAR 91 on the bottom of the bell. I reached out to fantom wit...

Happy Easter everyone. “ He is risen. ” This gives encouragement. Appreciate the info on the 6gear. makes me more optimistic about the limits I can push. The GoolRC combos are pretty gutless. The finned can 3500kv (blue) is basically a 380 can in a 540 shell size. The orange can 3500kv is a 540, bu...

I'm not looking for a shelf queen. Just want something decent brushless system in and really move. I'll prob keep looking for a stealth or maybe I'll just go with one of the new JC racing tranny cases. but for right now I think I'll just rebuild the 6 gear. pulled out the J Halsey tranny tips write ...

ok so i'm going down a lot of rabbit holes for various transmissions. just looking at options for replacing the 6-gear. Looking at the factory works/jc racing tranny case and going through the parts they list. I was able to track all the parts except for one. The last one before the bearings. its li...

Appreciate the responses guys. Unfortunately its too late. The auction ended just after the first response. At least now I know for next time.

Does the original 2.25:1 stealth transmission just bolt in the 6-Gear tranny hold pattern on the gold chassis? NO MODIFICATION REQUIRED? I've got a B stamp Championship Edition with the 6-gear. Dont want to drill the chassis. Looking at buying a stealth bc i want to run a faster brushless motor.

saw your videos on fb. This is AWESOME! how much of the car is printed vs parts you have or are buying? Are the print files something you created or freely available online? i searched for just a min but didnt find any type of print file but i know nothing of 3d printing. The video of the scx10 tran...

Cars been in the garage for a few years and I'm dusting it back off. My son will be getting a set of keys soon and Id like to increase my insurance. I need a bumper and skid plate. I've already dented the front end pretty good but id like to protect the current condition. And the bottom has its fair...

great build thread. super cool cars you have.

Welcome. I enjoy these types of threads. Im new here as well and doing something similar, restoring and updating a few things.

Oh your right lonestar. It is fun. Another shock question. I’m buying the rebuild kit and just noticed the split washers in the kit are not the same as the ones I have in my shocks. Mine are round split washers like the ones in the pic from the manual I posted. The kit has square looking ones. Will ...

Thanks for the tips guys. I get caught up in wanting both sides exactly the same. I’m about to settle for relatively close though. I’ve ordered the rebuild kit and will do all 4 at the same time. I’m ready for this part to be completed. Next is the transmission rebuild and I’m afraid that will be ev...

well im going to need the rebuild kit to finish the last shock. I built one of the rear. i think it turned out okay. The shock has NO rebound whatsoever. i filled the shock body with oil, then slowly pushed the piston up and down twice to remove excess air. fill in a bit more oil, then capped it. NO...

Okay. I didn’t realize how cheap the rebuild kit is. I was trying to avoid buying the whole kit thinking it was more $$.
