Addiction
Been seeing a lot of quality collection here on XMS.
Thought I should let the world know about my problem and get some help!!! These were the first taste... http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1953.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1956.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1959.jpg The addiction begins... |
nice cars .......
|
Looks great. I like the Subaru the most.
|
Nice start to your collection, keep it up :)
Edit: I have decided XMods are like tattoos...After you get your first one you can never stop! |
great start...nice subie...and you do realize its all downhill from here LOL...and welcome to the site as well
|
very nice.. its an extremely addicting addiction!!:eyecraz:
|
The first two was right before The Shack discontinued Gen 1.
The addiction continued... Found myself going to a different Shack everyday after work. After several shacks and nothing in stock, found these two display models... http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1976.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1979.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1980.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1982.jpg They were shelved in a display case since Day 1 at the shack, as they claimed. Looks like returned mechandise, but I didn't care. Shelved them, thus these seen no miles. A little description: Both bone stock, but the wheels, the brakes and the body kit. Civic is lowered with an RSX front clip, and dual exhaust mod. To be continue... |
Nice find. I should probably go around asking what they have in back.
|
Sorry Hiyoto, that would be 5-6 yrs ago.
|
Nice collection! What exactly is the point of the two screws on the rear bumper of the Civic? Is it part of the "dual-exhaust"?
|
The screw is used to hold the muffler mount. The other is there for balanced look.
Back to my problem... After visiting many Shacks with nothing in stock, started to get acquainted with the Shack people. This paid off. One of the manager was able to locate a black Civic starter Kit and some RSXs and Supra bodies for me. She called to have me pick them up. The following are the goodies from her. http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1983.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1984.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1985.jpg Beater Supra now, all scratched. No head light lens. http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1987.jpg Traded one of the RSX Body for this baby. Might have seen it with the 370Z post a while back. http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...Z/IMG_1989.jpg This stopped my hunger for a bit, but not for long... |
Nice pick up. I just recently ordered me a camaro, civic, 65 mustang body from radio shack.
|
nive i just got a 67 camaro that works with 04' mustang body through a mod and already had a 65 mustang
|
Wow, an excellent collection coming along there.
|
Wow it just keeps on growing. Looks great.
|
Thanks for the comp!
Here is the next batch. Just when I thought the EVO serie was all done and out, found these guys on sale. Didn't even know they were out. http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_2012.jpg Bumble Bee with Weapon and Light Kit http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_2013.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_2014.jpg Barricade with Weapon and Light kit. Modded with Gen one light kit to house all three set of light; ground, police and front (with the other front bumper of course) & brake light. http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_2016.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_2015.jpg Need to beef up the board. Lights flicker when all three of them are connected and turned on. And this one for kicks... http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_9562.jpg Not an actual Xmod, but would be nice. Hahaha |
NICE...where'd you make that score?...looks like the collection is definitely growing...and that would make for a funny xmod...maybe you should do a model conversion?
|
It just keeps on growing and growing. Where are you getting them from?
|
Just want to clarify; all of these were purchased way back in the days.
This is my collection of the last 6 years. Question for you, Hiyoto; When you said "I just recently ordered me a camaro, civic, 65 mustang body from radio shack." How is this possible? |

Yea, when to RS and asked for old xmods. None in the returns, or at least not the older generations.
Also asked the manager about Unlimited. He said only the old Camaro is available. I have it already, so left it for some other soul that wants to add it to their collection. One question for y'all; do all RS have the same list form Unlimited? I mean if I go to a different RS, will the manager tell me only the old Camaro is available again? Any how, here the next episode to my addiction... After the Bumblebee and Barricade, there wasn't much with the Xmods around my area. To kill time, I attempted to mount Mini-Z on my chassis. Here are the first three attempts. Gunmetal FC http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...d/IMG_2004.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...d/IMG_2005.jpg Yellow 911 (I think, need to check the back) http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...d/IMG_2008.jpg Dodge Viper http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...d/IMG_2010.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...d/IMG_2009.jpg One more on dummy chassis waiting to be mounted. No conversion to this yet. Blue Altezza http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...d/IMG_2006.jpg http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...d/IMG_2007.jpg Street Generation coming up soon... |
Wow that rx-7 is great! mind posting pics of how you mount them?
|
hey man good pics...i like your mini z body additions...and the addicition continues eh? LOL
|
Dang man you have a nice growin collection there.
With all the money spent, you could have bought a couple of mini Zs. |
Been busy lately with other things.
Let take a detour from my xmod addiction timeline. Just found out that I own two of the rarest xmods, so the Street Series photos will have to wait. I heard that the Red and Yellow hummers are very limited. Glad I picked them up, even though the wife is ****ed off by them. Here is the Red Hummer http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...r/IMG_2156.jpg Yellow hummer with all the goods; AWD, Off-road kit, lights, and stage 2 motor. http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...r/IMG_2167.jpg Yellow hummer with body kit. http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/a...r/IMG_2172.jpg Wow, so excited to know this!!! Time to end the ebay auction. Thanks firebird999. |
Impressive! I don't recall ever seeing the red H2! :eyecraz:
How much did they cost since they upset your wife? :lol: |
Nice pick up on the red and yellow H2. I was going to buy them but the wife is not approving right now.

I really like the addition of the Subaru wing to the GTR! Did it fit the stock holes or did you have to do modifications to the body and/or wing to get it to fit?
|
hey man the collection is looking great
and i believe the subie wing fits with just a little shaving...if i remember correctly on the one i did |

hey nice collection. i just spent my time going threw ur updates and its looking good. i'v been collecting for 5 years now. i was 13 wen i got my first one and im still collecting.
im going to post pics up later or ina bit. but you should look into modifing the chassie with aluminum parts. |
Quote:
I got on this train right before they discontinued Gen 1, about 6 years ago. I was a little older than you at the time though. Actually, my first batch of Aluminum parts are on it's way. This is a bunch for the Gen 1. For some reason, I like the gen 1 chassis a lot. It's only right to start the alum. upgrade at the source of my collection. |
xmods
yea it is. i only have one xmod thats fully upgraded with GMP parts and its my evo chassie. and i have a few GMP parts for my gen 1.
but the one on my evo, its sick man. all i need for it is a fet upgrade and a v2 board. i want to get more parts for my gen1 but money is tight rite now. if you need help on anything, let me know. |
Wow that is some collection! My wife would be super upset :mad: if I had that many xmods!
|
great collection
if only i had the money for that many |

Money is tight everywhere, I think that's why many of the parts are on sale. Quote:
