Re: Different twist on a JRX2...
Managed to find some red nuts.....
4-40 was easy thanks to CRC, 10-32 was a different story. I searched all over the place. I know Fastener Express has them, but I didn't want to pay $25 for 25 of them especially when I only need 4. Found slickzero.com had some aluminum nuts but were out of stock (according to the website) on the 10-32 in red. I emailed them asking when they'd get more in stock, no reply. I ordered a bunch of their 4-40 nuts for some other builds and when I got the package, they sent me 10 of the 10-32 in red for free!
Got the body mount made for the front. I need to get a JRXT rear body mount installed to sturdy it up a little. Don't have one, anybody here got one they don't need???
Paint is next. I have an HPI Nissan Skyline GT-R body set that I will be scrounging the decals from. Hopefully my next set of pics will show it completed.

Very nice Brandon! Stick with the yellow rims. Those babies are hard to find and look great on there.

We need one of those Facebook style "like" buttons on here...
I'm rarely in the Losi section, but it looks like I need to check it out more often.
It looks great!
I love the clean customs.

Re: Different twist on a JRX2...
Very pretty. Love the red anno/yellow wheels combo, great contrasting colors. What are you planning for a paint job?

JK racing - Thanks for replying.
I guess it is, but when I googled it, Proline Nissan Hardbody nothing like it showed up.
I was offered some car mats and other Proline bodies, but not the one pictured.

Re: Different twist on a JRX2...
Here's my Nissan hardbody, hard to photo. Looks similar but can't say 100%
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas
