My new addition - Marui Samurai
Got this from my Neighbor 2 doors.
Has been put togeather wrong. Chain is upside down. The steering links go over the chain not through it. Chain rubs on the steering links. Torsion bars aren't hooked up. Have got all the shocks and the Golds on it.
Will go well with my Galaxy. All up $80... It's nice to get a bargain, Doesn't happen often LOL....

Re: My new addition - Marui Samurai
Let's see some pics, Mark! Heck, even strip-down pics can be...fun. Show us your stripper.
P.S. Now that you own one, you can't keep calling it "Mauri Samuria", it's a Marui Samurai.

Re: My new addition - Marui Samurai

Re: My new addition - Marui Samurai
I don't know, I shipped them the same way as before--the el cheapo way. There could be joggers & skin divers involved...

Re: My new addition - Marui Samurai
Any progress on this build? I recently aquired a Samurai (in the mail currently) and am very interested in seeing this go together.
