Okay, finally my camera is fixed and I can update all of my projects. Pictures will be up as soon as my batteries finish charging. Some updates are a mini-z board, aluminum skid plate, upgraded springs, and some PN Racing locking wheel nuts. I hope this isn't digging up old threads, I haven't been able to update because of the camera issue. I have also decided to go solid black, blacked out, black on black. It'll match the chassis and just look deadly. My plans are a matte coat of black, and a clear gloss coat. The rims will be blue trimmed, so stay tuned.

Okay, I dropped the 350z body, and.... brought the Mercedes back to life! Heres some pictures, snapped a potentiometer wire on the mini-z board, but other than that it runs immaculate with the Helios controller. I ordered the body, and it didn't have any of the clips, that chinese guy always ripping people off. I had to use a hummer front clip, and part of a mini-z enzo clip.











I mounted the body real low, but there is still lots of room for suspension travel.

Edit: Sorry for the double post. I'm going to hell.
