Zebra's Xmods
 

Hi all.
Thought it about time I share some pictures of my collection.
Hope you like them.

Thes are all on working chassis.

I'm loving this collection, expecially a the lancer, white NSX, and Orange subbie. Nice pics, nicely cleaned cars, you're obviously kept them in really good shape.

Nice collection! Let me know if you ever want to get rid of that blue WRX shell

Wow, nice collection, especially the White NSX and the HPI Subbie! Do you have better pics of the wheels on the Evo by any chance?

cool collection, nice pics...foam mat works good for the pics/background...welcome aboard

nice collection, I like the lancer and the subaru

lol nice collection, love the cobra

You should change the HPI Subaru to Zebra Print,that would look neat-o.

Thanks for the comments.
I do tend to look after them,I like clean cars, and they usually only get used on my foam track with foam barriers,which keeps the damage down.
I have a couple of older pics of the same wheels on my rsx.
They are GPM wheels which fit mini-z tyres on to them.I aquired them second hand with another car.The great thing about them is they are actually round.

I will get some more individual pictures up later.
Thanks all.

Same guy from MZR right(going by that HPI WRX)? Nice collection man. Also, its tIres not tyres (sorry, this annoys the hell outta me when I see it).

Nice collection.
I really like that white NSX.

Very nice collection!! Makes me miss some of my old cars :)

Depends what part of the world you in... try to remember that this site is international and not get annoyed by different spelling locales....

love the orange subaru, adn the 67 camaro. nice collection. rims are great also

lol ehh... what do you mean by "they are actually round."

Nice collection, the cars look really clean. That white NSX is a real eye-catcher.

Sorry,I meant that they are true round in that the drive hole is very central,as opposed to some plastic wheels that are not quite central.
Just more accurate really.Especially when mounted on the gpm shafts,aids smoother running.

Thanks for all the nice comments.

The white nsx seems to be popular so here are some pictures from when I first recieved it from ebay.
It came with the wild body kit only,but luckily since then I have managed to find the mild and standard body parts for it.

Thanks.

great looking car, love it.

man you have some nice cars man i love the way that the silver rsx looks
with those gpm rims looks great and the svt looks cool too
with the white rims

that is a really nice collection you got there iam liking the wheels on the rsx and dont sell the subby shell there getting pretty rare now like the evo 8 body

Thank you.
Not planning on selling anything.
I sold my first xmod collection last year to fund mini-z's,but it did not take long before I started regreting selling them.It's taken nearly a year to get the collection where it is now and I think I have learnt from my mistake and plan on keeping them all.
It's funny when you see people running xmods down compared to mini-z's,they obviously just don't understand the difference.
I have nearly as many running mini-z's as I do xmods and,yes,the mini-z can drive like a dream on the track,but the xmod is more fun just to fiddle with.
The Evo 8 has a mini-z pcb in it with an xmod stage 2 motor and GPM shafts and knuckles with good quality bearings.Sometimes,on my small foam tile track,it seems a bit easier to get a consistent fast lap with it.I think it's because the steering is not as sensitive as the mni-z's,so seems easier to get into a smooth rythmn.

Anyway,sorry for the prattling,got a bit carried away:roll: .
Thanks again for the great coments.

you have some of the cleanest xmods i have ever seen

lol thanks for clearin that up for me lol,

so if some one wanted to get into xmods or mini-z's that had a unlimited money suply what would to tell them?

Forget them and buy a Ferrari!

lol ok not a unlimited money suply..... how about $300?

Half of his collection...

Great rides, loving the Integras. Real clean looking, nice and simple. Makes me wish my RSX was an Integra.

I would say it depends what you want to do with it.
Racing? get a mini-z.
Customizing and modelling? xmod.
I like radio controlled cars and 1/28th scale lets me do that at home.And I can have about 10 in the smae space it takes to keep a 1/10th car.
I'm not much for customising the bodies but I do enjoy upgrading the xmods to improve they're handling etc.

Thanks.The integras are one of my favorites too.

This is my old integra that I sold about 18 months ago.
I added extra led's to the front and rear and changes the green underglow to red.The front led's required a lot of trimming to make them fit without rubbing on the front wheels when steering.The chassis was a gen 1 with tight turns.
Also blackened the lights a little.
I regret selling this one.

Cheers.

My word... That is amazing... How did you manage those smoked lights ? I would've bought that body from you hands down at $35. Just flawless... Any more pictures ?

wow! lol cab you make one of those 4 me??? $50 sound good?

I used Tamiya smoke paint on the lenses.The rear ones where trated with nail polish remover first to remove as much of the red as I could,although this seemed to frost the plastic a little,it did not turn out too bad.


Lol,nah,I'm going to keep the one I've got and probably keep it original.Getting rare now unfortunately.

Glad you liked it though and thanks.

Here's some more pictures.

At rest.

Next up is my old silver Integra.
In the pictures it is mounted on a Gen1,but I used to race this shell on an evo chassis with a friend,hence the battle scars (this was after a clean up).

Sorry to double post but got some new pictures I did today.

New look for the NSX.
Fitted the body to an evo chassis instead of it's gen1 chassis it came with.The only chassis mods are bearings.The bearing I got for this one are of the open type and where cheap-ish,but are not as good a fit as the closed type I usually get.Even though they are very free running,there is still a lot of wobble.
I managed to find standard and mild body kit on ebay.
I think I prefer the narrower kits on the nsx.
Also made a new front clip to lower the front to a more acceptable height,original is way too high.

Managed to pick up a couple of nib silver Supra body sets.
I like the supra but this body is a bit of a wall climber unless it has the wild front on.
This one is also on an evo chassis,with the xmod open bearings which are a lot better than the other type I have.
