Ok, so I decided to dig this back up, my post I can do that! :D So, for the b4.2 parts, I would need the steering knuckle and carrier, and either the b4.2 or t4.2 axles, correct? Those would most or less fit into the current A-arms? Then just change the tie rod length to suit. Hex wheels are so comm...

built this a bit ago , but its been sitting on a shelf with no electronics been afraid to run it because of the cost of all the nip andys parts I put into it yesterday I said what the hell ,added some electronics and let her rip glad I did did have to take of the body since it was rubbing pretty bad...

The purpose behind the quadra symmetric design is to give the front and rear suspension the same geometry. Same arm length, same chassis width. So in order to accomplish that with the tub with no mods, the arm mounts needed to squeeze in ever so slightly. If you don't really care about that as scr8p...

Just picked this up. Looks like full Hot Trick.

The original was better in a few places, unfortunately they are key areas. the aluminum screws are poor, ie, not really aircraft screws, some cheap facsimile. So swap them out for something better. the transmission has issues with a poor idler/case tolerance and poor quality control on the top shaft...

no, bulkhead is about the same overall. they adjusted the battery box however to fit a lipo, basically trimmed the bottom off. the silver springs have been around forever, standard kit parts, no real change there. the metal is extremely close to the originals as well as the plastics, so it's probabl...

Really cool build!!! I also still have a set of chrome HPI Super Stars left. Those are my all time favorite wheels Yeah, they always did look great, and nice to be able to use some of my original parts from back then on this build. Otherwise they would just be sat in my spares box forever more, whi...

Some update (almost there!): - I need a shorty battery - I need a soldering iron to install the original motor that I still need to clean (surface rust) - the right rear wheel is locked, I need to check the transmission, never seen this before - I need to acquire a Protech I body and paint it! https...

Congratulations on Car of the month and an awesome finish on the buggy!

About a month ago after running it really hard since my post about it, a tooth chipped on the idler gear. Going to go back to plastic gears but it was a fun experiment. Made it sound less like a toy and like it had a supercharger. I think if I had kept the plastic idler gear everything would have be...
