Looks great to me! I still need to order a third test from Shaoeways to get the holes the right diameter. You did exactly what I did- rotate the motor plate and raise the brace. One thing I struggled with was the motor plate holes since mine used all b6 driver train. I ended up screwing the motor pl...

I’m glad to see someone else doing this- I don’t have the time and it’s something that would sell for sure. I don’t recall the idler teeth but it’s all b6. I did a couple different setups, and also modded them in case we wanted to run 4wd. I just never got around to finishing any of it. I don’t thin...

If anyone is willing to share the files I can get willspeed to produce these in cnc ali

Now this is one really sweet project!
All the benefits of the B6 style trans without having to cobble the goldpans chassis.
Very clever indeed.

I just wanted to follow up my original question also, with this. I contacted Schumacher some time after I posted this thread, to ask where the CAT XLS Masami was manufactured. The answer? Thank you for your E-Mail. Our kits are still designed and manufactured here in Northampton, England. Best Regar...

I did finally decide on a body. Yellow and black, same colors as a Radioactivity symbol! Paint is Proline Flourescent yellow and Proline Pearl black. Used Diveley mask for the first time on this paint as well. I chose the yellow for it's perfect match with JCracing yellow wheels, which are also new ...

My 3rd Box Art, 100% airbrushed paint job I did. No "box art stripe decals used"

Glad to hear Sally is leaving. We are still deep in smoke here, enough that i am not working in the shop at all. That case is looking great! Really nicely done! So, the final step is to drill the screw holes for mounting the case to the chassis and the top brace plate and its spacer. This is where I...

Very nice.
Really setting the bar high for innovation and creativity.
Just love it!

Nice. It looked to machine very smoothly so figured abs or pvc. Plenty strong enough for what you are doing.

Easier to solve by creating new rear hub carriers that both fix the driveshaft angle and also correct the bone engagement. The ones I made adapt b6 cva’s over which also fixes the wheel offset problem by using modern wheels. That’s my .02 anyway

Wow! This is a very impressive undertaking with great looking results. I'm curious to hear about the performance. Keep up the good work!

Looks really nice! Thank you. Why isn't the body painted yet ??? It took me long enough to build. I'm getting older. :lol: The car looks great Chris! By chance, are you able to determine if the front and rear sprockets have the same tooth count? Someone mentioned the car having one-way bearings in ...

Sunday delivery! Exited like I’m 10 on Christmas morning!
