Default RE: Old, OLD Inferno

Hi, Nice old buggy you have, but this is not a Turbo Inferno, actually it is not from the Inferno series, this is the Kyosho Turbo Burns from 1989 with a Turbo Inferno Body and wheels on it.

its manual is here: [link=http://www.retromodelisme.com/manuels_pages/91/turbo-burns-4wd-kyosho.html]Turbo Burns Manual[/link]

parts are difficult to find and expensive in eBay, just sell it in eBay and get a a new MP7.5 sport or a used one.

here is my New Turbo Burns;





ORIGINAL: beddo

Hey guys,
I happened to be walking past a house having a garage sale yesterday and saw this in a box with a bunch of other crap, offered the lady a tenner for it and walked away smiling.

Im fairly sure its a Turbo Inferno like it says on the shell, but Im not 100%.

It has a Mugen 3.5 motor with an Efra Power pipe and a K&N air filter, the motor has plenty of compression, Theres a hump pack and Fastrax failsafe fitted and it looks like the receiver has been water-proofed at some point.

Its in fairly scruffy condition all over, but I reckon with a bit of TLC it could be a decent buggy again.

The biggest issue I have found is spares...... i.e. none! Anyone know if any of the newer Inferno parts will fit? Also, it has 19mm hexes with a screw which goes in through the wheel. Can these be convereted to 17mm hubs and nuts?

Any info anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Beds.
