Fusion Speed build-up

[scr8p]

alright, i spent some time installing the radio gear. i scored these pieces a year or so ago on ebay....... dirt cheap. i think the price was just over $10 w/ the shipping for the servo, esc, and the reciever. they're in near perfect condition, and since this is probably the nicest car i have, i figured i'd use them in this.

the motor/battery leads on the esc are quite short. so when i get some wire for it, it'll be coming back out so i can replace them. i'm still up in the air about what motor i want to put in it, but i have a few different ones to choose from, so we'll see. i still have to attach the linkage from the servo to the bellcrank, but i'm thinking about swapping out the stock one for a houge, so i let that go for now. plus, i think i'm gonna need a couple more new white ball cups. i guess i should check on that.

Year anniversary on the last update coming fast!!!

[scr8p]

well, i do have a nip white associated spur to put on it now. i might have some time in the next month or two to install it.

Wow, and all this time I thought that you were cleaning the 3k weave with a toothpick and it just wasn't ready for a press photo

[scr8p]

nah, i did that in jan. '08. why do you think i didn't put any parts on it until feb. '09?

[Charlie don't surf]

Yeah, but that has been almost 3 years so like the Golden Gate bridge it's time to start over again

isn't it funny when some of the last posts of a thread are jokes about something sitting a year or more, then you come back to it 2 years later with a tiny update?

this thing was friggin dusty as hell, so i thought i'd give it a quick cleaning. then i figured i would install new, longer wires on the esc that i threatened to do almost 3 years ago. and while i was at it, i installed the capacitors on a nip b&r stock motor and put it in the car. i've had a nip s&k 1400 scr match pack (6 loose cells) for a few years now that i'll most likely assemble and throw in the car. i also have to dig up an old style turnbuckle to button up the steering.

i also sold off the sees wheels in favor of stock tq wheels since bling doesn't really do anything for me.

Steering linkage is foreseen in August 2014 Jason told me through PM!

That's about right.
