K&N air filter you know it makes sense!!!

i am unsure of what make of glow starter i am using but it was the most expensive in the shop

as for the glow plug i have tried many different ones only to find they all get wrecked by my engine. which type should i use for the standard smartech engine?

sweet car btw andy [8D]

i'l b sellin my duratrax shocks on ebay soon ( only gonna send to the UK so soz every1 else~) ..... hardly used....no leaks.....no marks on it.....i'l send the link in here when i put them up for bid


NICE buggy andy.............a bit too clean though....love the tyres

is the smartech buggy featured in the picture two speed???

yes it is a two speed because you can see the two black gears in the middle

Does anyone know of a decent replacement for the black .15 CXS cooling head? The stock one is just not getting the job done..

Thanks.

any size 15 engine cooling head will fit

that means i got gears and i didnt even know it

there me road tyres
last a long time too, only beaten by the foam tryes that i have they just last forever!!!

hehe andy i thought i would have a go:


And if your wondering where my clutch is:


Ryan.

Wow, now that's a clutch failure! Looks like it got really hot in there and broke through the bell. My clutch spring just went out. I only knew it because the car would only start and run with the wheels in the air. I pulled the bell and saw the spring fall out. The shoes look okay, as does the bell.

Andy, where did you get those tires and wheels from? I would like to know what other cars use this size hex wheel. I want some tires that will last on the street. The only other terrain here in Florida is sand. I will even entertain the foam tires you mention.
The original Smartech tires I have are lacking nubs, especially the front tires! Smooth as baby bottom.

Thanks!
Mark

hehe mark, before i went out with it, it already had some clutch bell missing. It happened when i was going full speed and about to do a jump, when about 10cms away from the jump it stoped :P And it was like that

Ryan.

seeing as we are all posting pics



here is my car

it is not modified what so ever in the picture because at the time of taking the picture i had only had the car a few days. (i wish it was that shiny now )

Hi mark
HPI super size... http://www.hpieurope.com/gallery_dis...=snwhl&lang=en


Andy

Cool... Are they the same size wheels as the Smartech stockers? What kind of money to buy the wheels with tires?
Mark

all hpi touring car wheels will fit same as the 2.2 truck tires. I had a set on my smart tech but it was undergeared for the massive increase in tire size. if it has a hex and its 1/10th scale she will fit, traxxas rims fit as well.

hey, thanks for that, Banx!
I was sure there would be at least one make that shared the same wheels...

I figured the large tires would be much for the current gearing... I bet the top end would be unbelievable, if there is enough horsepower to get it up to speed... You would need some pretty large transmission gears to get the right ratio for balanced power! (or very small driven gears! lol)

Mark

Missing engine due to clutch being on order: Broken front bumper and rear wing were replaced by parts taken from cheapo RC cars out of my boys' closet. Had to make due somehow! Heh heh

Rear wing is actually quite a bit stronger than stock.

ok i fried my clutch today, do any of you guys have a different clutch than the smartech one, a specific brand or something you have that works...i'm sure a few of you guys have fried one

heheh banx look up at my clutch Someone (I think chocy) has got a different clutch with 3 shoes. Or it might be that hes got a 2 shoe clutch but they are made from some material that lasts longer than plastic and do less damage to the clutch bell that a aluminium clutch does.

Ryan.

Guys i need some helpful info
Anybody know the part numbers of the 2 cogs in the 2 speed gearbox?
thanksfor the help
Andy

ryan, since my HPI MT is waiting for parts I stole the clucth and it works fine. a nice aluminum clutch would be great. but for which model?

i'll search the other pages

the main gear is 11284 but my manual if for the one speed car (even though i have the two speed) so it doesnt give me all the details


THEY DISPATCHED THE WRONG MANUAL FOR MY CAR- the picture on the front doesnt even look like my buggy


retards [:@]


as i said before - makes good toilet paper

cheers scott
there is a copy floating around of the manual you need, i can post it up if you want, but its not much better than the one you have
I dont disagree with the comments you made earlier about the cars being of a low standard, but we are all in the same boat and i would have had huge problems with my car parts ect, if it wasnt for the help provided on this forum
Andy

Get a teflon one its a soft metal so it wont kill your clutch bell like ryans one. dont get a plastic one waste of money and time [:'(]
