likin' the supra, lovin' the FXX.

Zebra 05-21-2009 02:10 PM

Really nice collection.
Always wanted a 575gt.
At least it is a very small space they waste!!

cowboysir03 05-23-2009 10:52 PM

here's the next pile since my wife's letting me at the computer. There's two repeat chassis with the 350Z's and the Supra/575GTC...the Calsonic and GZox run on the same mod AD band mr02 and the Supra is for when I worry my loaner car is going to get beat up(so i switch off the 575GTC and use the Supra).

So in total that makes 9 mr02's, 1 mr015 (Ferrari 430GT), one MRCG and two F1's...I loan my stock(sort of mod) cars out to some visitors to our club races to get the feel for racing and then they usually get hooked and buy some for themselves. It's like I'm getting them hooked....:lol:

I have one more chassis to finish building...it'll be a 98mm midmount mr02 with a Ferrari 360GTC body dremelled out to fit the wheelbase of the chassis (360 is normally 94mm)

For those of you wondering where all the scuffs and such are from racing...most of these bodies are new for me and will see the wars soon.:bigwink:

cowboysir03 05-31-2009 03:17 PM

My latest " lets try and build up a full car from the spare parts bin" creation...

AM 3010 MR02
64 pitch gears (53/10) on PN Ti/ceramic diff
1 deg PN alloy front knuckles
PN 0.5 caster bar
Kyosho top shock and PN DDS
stock armature in a Atomic BB can
Atomic 98mm motor mount

Dremelled out a 360GTC shell to try a small body on a 98mm wheelbase...should be interesting.:lol:

Pictures are a bit dark but they'll do until I set up the booth.:bigwink:

cowboysir03 06-26-2009 09:07 PM

stay tuned for the new build...

I decided to purchase the new MR-CG1.1 after i sold off my previous generation to a buddy of mine. I'm deciding on a servo for it and then the build will start from there.

You have no idea how much I love build efforts like this.:bigwink:

TheB1GDude 07-08-2009 10:37 PM

WOW.... thats pretty **** sick... any more photos??

bigez 07-08-2009 10:54 PM

man you have a very nice garage of z's i love them all wish
i had them
man i love those MR-CG1.1 i want one so bad but i do not have place to
race it and they are so dam pricey i may just have to make a track just so i can get one

Donziikid 07-09-2009 12:13 AM

An unused sticker sheet?! :p

I can't quite place it so I must ask.. what servo is that?

Awesome setup. Hope it performs well on the track. ;)

Cheers,
Kyle.

cowboysir03 07-09-2009 12:33 AM

It's a HiTec HS45HB...same rating as an HS55 but with a tiny bit lower and wider profile. I wanted to try a lower front end on this car because my last mrcg 's servo made the tierod sit every high on the knuckle pivot arm.

A good friend of mine has a light booth for macro shots so I'll be getting some shots from him.;)

I'll get around to placing some stickers soon donzi.:lol:

Spoon_Tuner 07-11-2009 11:26 PM

How do the Ferrari TEST Car and the GTC 575 stack up compared to the JGTC wide cars? I am interested in getting a MR-02RM Ferrari car of some sort for my next Mini Z project.

I mean stack like good aero to them and wide at the wheels?

stang_racer 07-12-2009 01:01 AM

OOOOOOOOO nice dtm looking audi!!! i want it lol, got any bmws?? sorry bit of a bimmer freak here hahaha, very nice collection

RedSXmodder 07-12-2009 02:48 PM

What wheels are those? Those seem to be getting quite popular...my deep dish ATMs must be going out of style haha.

Later,
RedSXmodder

cowboysir03 07-12-2009 10:06 PM

Hey Red!

Those wheels are PN Racing's machined delrin 21mm rims. i find them a bit more round than my ATM's and tires fit really snug when glueing them.

As for BMW's I have an older autoscale tossed into the back shelf area that belongs to my buddy John. He bought one of my NSX bodies off me for racing so it's just sitting there.

I have some neat plans for it, though...maybe eventually once I get some other random projects rolling out my head and onto my work table.:lol:
