Ive got a few NIP Polaris, but id be guessing at the Mercury or LRP units being cannon? Or maybe the XXL?

At a glance its a 94, with optional towers, top deck, steering bridge and links, and also steering links, looks a decent basis, wing mounts do pop up from time to time, never that cheap, but they do pop up. Your hubs are Team Suzuki, pretty decent, id leave them on TBH!

Thats it Dan, its so fun just turning it around, rolling of the dust and tarnish, does give me a bit of a buzz, its a very satisfying and rewarding pastime!

Rheinaldo, hey bud, i already have a 94 lol, my shelf queen one, this is my second, but seeing as im racing my first car now, not sure i need this, im trying to move away from shelf queens now, run 'em lol!

Picked this up the other week in trade for my rather epic '92 Works. She started out as a bit of a scruff bag/cupboard fodder, but with very minimal use, so the rebuild has been fun, bit of polishing here and there, but all drivetrain parts are superb, not like my last pig i purchased haha. Its goin...

Yeah if its really bad some non marking grips will save your post from being carved up by regular pliers, last gasp, drill out the countersunk screw head, and then rag out the remaining thread with pliers, I've done that a few times and as long as your careful, it works a treat!

Yes, the arms, chassis, and lack of TCS are dead ringers this is a vanilla YZ10 94 with the later towers from the 95, and 97 top deck fitted I'm afraid.

lee

So slick, those arms look awesome, lovely car to drive too!

Lee

Nothing aggravates me more than a fella using a hammer and chisel to removed an ESC and thus carving a perfectly pretty chassis plate, arrrgghh, exacto that tape man, its easy, it just pops right off lol.

lee

Yeah you would need alloy ones, oh and shafts too!

Lee

Oh and tie rods too.....if you wanted to do it full on, it'll cost a whack, but you could go full carbon from FL too, think that belt you'll need is ZC653 for fine pitch?

lee

Im no expert in the workings of the 870c Dan, but i think you'll need chassis, top deck, towers, suspension arms and a front belt?

lee

Well mate its just easy on the eye lol, you running her?

Lee

Whoa, killer job, love this car!

Lee

I want one lol, so nice buddy, id paint a Pavidis job TBH!
