Whatcha' think?
 
Hi all,

I've been out of the loop a while, however I thought I'd get back into modding due to the new cars coming out, and me just getting bored lately. So, I thought that I'd see what you all thought of my best car. It runs great, however I do need to find a new li-Poly set for it. These I have here are d-e-a-d. dead. Anyways, here is a picture of it, next to the beater body that I usually ride around on it. The beater is most likely going out in a trade this weekend.

Upgrades:
Li-Poly
2x3 (I think that's how I term it) FET stack
alloy heat sink (gets REALLY hot)
S2 gmod motor. I think I popped off the back once and hand-wound the copper wiring and swapped the mags in it, not sure though.
AWD
Bearings

Whatcha' think? I'm wondering what to do with it at this point. Whether I want to ship it off and get some cash or to fix it up even more and find a nice body to fit on it.

heyy. i remember you from a while back. That car is sick. I would keep it. Looks really good, and im sure its real fast when the lithium is working. What body do you have planned for it?

At the moment I just have that supra beater on it. Howevr I have a supra body that's not a beater, and is just plain, out of the box supra body :P

I'm not sure what to put on it. Any suggestions? Custom mount one? find an old gen1 body somewhere?

EDIT:

I do have an Acura NSX body that's in fair condition, it needs a new coat of paint because the default yellow is sanded down in a few spots just from...well...I don't know what. Plus I have the BK pieces for it too. Would make a great "Xmods history" car, good ole fully modded NSX Gen1 car, would be pretty sweet if you ask me.

personally i would go with the supra. ive always wanted one of those, and i think it would look reall clean with a plain supra body on it. Then again, you couldn't go wrong with the NSX either. in the end its all up to you. What color is the supra?

xmodmaverick 12-03-2009 05:17 PM

Silver. It has a scuff on the roof though, so maybe just a nice coat of clearcoat will hide it?

dr1ftGTR 12-03-2009 08:25 PM

nice nice. yeah that should look good. maybe just some plastic polish will get it out. how bad is the scuff? i loved my car when i had lithium on it. then i let it sit for a few months w/o charging it and the batteries died, and im not sure if the car is still running right now.

It's pretty bad, but you can only notice it when the light hits it at an angle to where you see the reflection.

I need to get new Li-Ply's first, I think I shall make a thread on how to test if mine are dead, because the bateries have their +/- wires backwards compared to the charger and car
