Status: offline 		Thanks man, I like using my own recipe
Well the weight helps there, although my gps is at serious risk lol.
It's actually not too horrible to keep straight the suspension really starts to squeeze down at high speed and the wheels get that gyro effect.
This is it fully dressed...

Status: offline 		Yeah the tyres were taller. he has other gearing on order so that will increase the speed also. He had a gearbox failure but think he has parts.

I was so impressed with this that I got myself a BZM motor. Its the same as Rinos full moded with 16hp and 19,000 rpm.

I havent seen the video yet but from previous runs I dont think he is hitting peak revs at all! What he needs to do now is stand on something to increase line of site and radio range. Both me and Nic know this is the way to increase speed. After that the tyres will start to give up.

Anyway I have thrown the guantlet down for first one of us to reach 300kph! I have some catching up to do as I havent received the motor yet or bought a chassis...LOL

I doubt it will fit so snuggly as the stock engine though. We will probably just take the rear and front units and build a chassis to fit

Cheers

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Status: offline 		I have an HPI rs4 e with a new is os 18tz. My problem now is that when I accelerate hard or somewhat hard the car kicks to a side. I'm using a buku clutch shies and fly wheel. Could this be a problem? Is my clutch engaging to late with too much rpm and power or would it be something totally different?

Status: offline 		Does anybody on here have a old walburn chassis that they would part with? I have been modding my own motors for a few years now and never new what I had going. I mainly just ran with my brother and one of my friends. Recently I started selling and doing other peoples engines and I got a guy who is running one of my 3.3's in his 4tec. He raced somebody with a rail that was all done up and modded and beat him all 3 races with a 4tec. It upset them bad enought they got their big block rail out and still lost. Now I am looking to actually get out there and start drag racing around here while he is going to advertise and drag down there.

Status: offline 		Hi  new to  this forum.  I  am trying to put a .21 (GRP Tuned on road)  into  my NTC3. I do know  it will blow the diffs and that there is other models better  suited but  I still want to  try. I am trying to locate engine mounts that will allow me to do the conversion. Any info  will  be appreciated.

Status: offline 		 You can try this starting technique for a new motor.. loosen up the glow plug slightly to relieve the compression, connect ignitor give it a couple bumps on the starter box when it starts up tighten the glow plug back up. I had to upgrade my motors in my mugen starter box 2 months ago to start my nova.
