RE: RS4 Club Thread
OMG did u see how he re-fueled his rs4! thats the sickest f***ing thing ive ever seen. just like a real GT supra. Thats fu**ing awsome.
Ive seen a few other guys who have modded ther d-conversion so its a rear exhaust. That was one of the reason why i thought about getting a rs4 in the first place. i wanted to get the d-conv but i said no cuz it cost to dam much.

NP.. my friend has the venom nightranger 3DXL and he flys it in his garage, it is very cool but alot harder than it looks. So im going to buy a venom NR 3D first to practice and get the 3DXL later on when i get better. Im still figuring out a setup and researching then im goin' flyin!
I still like my rs4, shocks are to arrive in the next few days. Cant wait to try them out

Hells go go DOWNLOAD the G3 sim demo. ( unless u got $200 to burn ) I have it on my comp. Its hard to get the hang of but once your use to the keybord the 2 stick will feel like nothing. The two stick will feel alot better to. If u get a heli, im sure u know this but spend as much on the radio gear as u can!!! thats prolly the best tip u can get, aside from getting the Realflight G3 game/demo i was ALMOST gonna get a heli but cant afford real radio gear + i got a tmaxx anyways. i saw this killer hand sized one on ebay for 100$ ( not those picco oones either )
http://www.realflight.com/
And yes i know this is a trend for rs4. bite me >:P

RE: RS4 Club Thread
omg,.... i wrote liek a paragraph on this and it must have deleted... wtvr.. so here.... go to: www.virtualrc.com ... i only have the demo version... it is what the title reads tho: a rc car simulator... basically you have multiple views, the best 1 is staying in the drivers stand on the oval track... or theres a parking lot for drifting.. they have multiple cars but simply put u either choose 1/8 scale or 1/10 scale... then u choose touring or drifting basically... the only thing about the demo is u can only practice... u can practice with AI(other ciomputer cars) but it only counts fasteswt lap so theres no REAL way to race UNLESS u buy the REAL game which i think is liek 60 bux... lol... but i think the 60 bux comes with the transmiter this way its like a real simulator instead of using the arrow keys... lol... well yeah.. its funn.... TRY IT OUT!!!!

RE: RS4 Club Thread
Guys the 3racing shocks arrived today earlier than expected. Heres the lowdown and pics:
They arrived today packaged and bubble wrapped very well. They look very good and matched the rs4 colors. I installed them as soon as i can. The shock set came with everything you need, very happy with all the accessories and screws you can choose from to mount it the towers. You can mount it using either screws, ball end thing w/ screw or 5.8mm (seperate) to your shock towers
The springs that come with it are very soft and short which i didnt like, so i swapped the springs from my old shocks and they fit right in and the stiffness is perfect. Plus you cant really adjust the springs that came with it any stiffer because its near the end of the shock body thread.
Also while i was installing it, i realised the ball end for the top part of the shock uses 5.8mm studs so i had to use the screw kit that came with it unless i buy 5.8mm ball studs. The bottom ones are 4.8mm ball studs so they fit right in the stock rs4 ball studs but the kit comes with extra 4x shiny ballstuds which i used to replace the old purple suspension arm ball studs with to match the chrome screw kit
Took me about 1.5hours to install and tune the shocks to my likings. It fits straight in but youll have to tune the height and stiffness and make sure all the lengths are even. I still havent ran it on the road yet, maybe 2morow or the weekend but for $26US delivered, its so worth it!
