Its that stick i was talking about... no clue what to do whit it , anyway if i take a normal wire made of plast or something... it might burn or melt... so im not really sure what to take...

please send pic's or a nice explanation and not like the one on my manual :p

the "stick" needs to be mounted to a body screw or some other nearby screw. I don't have a pic here at work but there is one that mounts the radio plate on mine, pull that screw out, slide it in the round end and screw it down.

the other end (not the rounded one) goes into the front of the muffler, there should be an allen screw in there, back it out a bit and put the end in there. Lemme draw up a quickie pic for ya..be right backk

hope this makes sense, doing it from memory and well, mspaint isn't the greatest :)

you probably have to bend that "stick" a bit to make it fit depending on how yours is setup, but i hope you get the idea. Let me go look and see if I can find a pic somewhere..

okay heres another one. i circled in red the part where the "stick" goes. You can kind of make it out going to the screw there just in front of the gas tank

Hey, thx i see what u mean but the manual says i have to drill a hole in the chassi to do so.. and the problem is i aint got a drill :(

also, there's a nice hole in my fuel tank that i maybe could use...
but no idea what to use to bind them toughter... also whichever ´way i do, the exhautus will crap to the chassi if i do any quick turns so thats another problem..

And now the last one :p , well u see, if i'll have it something like this, the pipe will scratch to the chassi as u saw on the first pictures... thats problem 2 ... maybe i should put some silicon or some better type of plastic.. What do u guys think?

lol, it looks like it wont work... but its worth a try, thats one thing i dislike about those companies... im sticking with AE for now i've got ENGLISH instructions and good HOW TO photos...
:)

lol the thing is, MADE FOR PURETEN GP ALPHA *my model* is what it says, says also a good manual but i dont wanna drill in my chassi... maybe ill be forced but rather not.. its even Recommended by kyosho heh. Anyway, why dont u think it will work? its not like it'll slip off, just if i make some crash or something that it'll get damaged.. anyway i think i will rent a drill and do as manual says but i still dont know if it will work
