Nice, I like those rims. Ive always been a fan of black rims.... I hope this thread does last. I was thinking of turning my Hyper 7 into a truggy, thats one reason I bought one, I never heard much about people making a hyper truggy, then i saw an ad for the Hyper ST. This should make the conversion a little bit easyer. Does anybody know if the shocktowers from other truggies, like the jammin', will fit on the hyper 7, because the ones on the Hyper ST are plastic, and I was looking for something stronger.

RE: OFFICIAL HYPER 7 THREAD
 

i dont think so you do know that there IS a conversion kit to turn a Hyper7 buggy into truggy and it comes with the Metal shocktowers.

I didnt know that. Thanks, I will probably get that, that looks like what I need, and it has a nice chassis.

RE: OFFICIAL HYPER 7 THREAD
 

yeh, i havent actually seen one put on it, so i dont know how it goes..

RE: OFFICIAL HYPER 7 THREAD
 

Anyone know what weight shock oil to put in?, the stock ones are CR@P, i got some 80weight here but that will prob blow the shocks, what do use guys reccomend?

RE: OFFICIAL HYPER 7 THREAD
 

Maybe 40-60, if 80 seems to much. I hope more people post here......

RE: OFFICIAL HYPER 7 THREAD
 

I would suggest 30 to 40wt. max for off-road. Only go 50wt. or above if you're only going to be running it on-road.

RE: OFFICIAL HYPER 7 THREAD
 

what motor are you planing on putting in it? My Hyper should be coming soon, sometime today!

RE: OFFICIAL HYPER 7 THREAD
 

i also have a hyper 7. dunno what engine to put in it yet, i was thinking of an sts .21 maybe. i've only driven it once with a borrowed force .27 engine. pretty fast, and i love the way it handles. completley different from my Monster GT and HPI MT 2.

RE: OFFICIAL HYPER 7 THREAD
 

mine runs fine, what ya mean it doesnt want to lean out?

RE: OFFICIAL HYPER 7 THREAD
 

ARe you planning on racing? , if so the OS VZ-B Vspec is an excellent choice, sure u gotta change the bearings and rod, but this engine absolutely screams, im going to drop one into my Hyper soon, when i get the funds :eek:

RE: OFFICIAL HYPER 7 THREAD
 

yeah, it's the racer out of my pack, along with my mgt. plan on racing buggy and monster truck class when the season starts. here's a couple pics of my buggy. oh yeah, i noticed that ofna is releasing a ready run version of the tq sport with the macstar 28 in it. didnt they already release a tq version not too long ago with a .28 in it?

RE: OFFICIAL HYPER 7 THREAD
 

Well, if i lean the engine too far, it will just conk out when your on a straight but the engine is certainly not overheating and theres nothing up with the glowplug.
