could be a kyosho inferno dx rtr or a inferno dx kit? They might have after market shocks-----the blue anodize is throwing me off:D

looks like the stock inferno rtr engine head, but it's a light blue.

200? A new inferno rtr costs 270 on ebay

The engine is an OS .21 RX from around 10 years ago.

looks like an old DX to me too

got a link [link=http://freespace.virgin.net/radio.racer/]HERE[/link] to an old web page with MP5 etc information & links on it, might be of some help;)

yea---it's a 1/8 scale----it would be interesting to know if it has sealed diffs---the old infer's didn't. - we used to have to break them down all the time and pack them with a heavy grease we called strawberry jam(not heavy sil oil).

You're right, it is a O.S. That shock tower is very very thin

It looks like it is a Turbo Inferno or maybe an Inferno DX.

I think you got the answer in your other thread with the same topic.
Also, ask the seller.

d2cs2mdw 11-17-2005 05:24 PM

RE: I need to know what this is quickly!
 
Well if that's the engine, what kind of speed will this pushing?

SManMTB 11-17-2005 05:30 PM

RE: I need to know what this is quickly!
 
40 mph or so. Depends on gearing as you know.

d2cs2mdw 11-17-2005 10:26 PM

RE: I need to know what this is quickly!

RE: I need to know what this is quickly!
 
Thank's, I want to do some research about this but I havent been able to, I didn't know the name of it...

RE: I need to know what this is quickly!
 
thats the inferno DX my dad have one and still run very good an that engine it's an O.S. like 10 years old.
i'm from Dominican Republic and the first buggy to come to my country was the inferno DX from my dad and it doesn't come with the side guards you have to modify the chassis and the body to fit the side guards

virgilio_frl007 11-18-2005 08:12 AM

RE: I need to know what this is quickly!
 
and the rear shocks are from a inferno turbo series

if you are going to buy a new body u will have problem finding it, and the wheel hex it's 19mm not 17mm like all those buggys now

The Kyosho/Hype Zircon buggy still uses the 19mm wheelhex, so it should be possible to find some new wheels.

RE: I need to know what this is quickly!
 
So is it going to be very difficult to find part's for this?
