Hey thanks for the complement, I've got the Ezrun 60ABLESC in one of mine too, I really enjoy the options, tunability and price, compared to my Novak BL XTR.
I thought the skyline popped pretty good with the hop-ups and rims being roughly the same shade.As far as stickers, The Yukes is an EVO X pack...I was so stoked when I found <u>rcmart.com</u> looking for the Ken Block 2008 Sti sticker pack..they had it as well as alot of others. I pretty much bought most of the sticker packs they have all at once, some in doubles for future projects. I can't wait to finish my Ken Block body, probibly keep it as a shelf queen. BTW i think they are the only place with the insane selection of 1/10 scale bodies, I bought 3 at once..it was like a kid in a candy store. End shameless plug, I am no way affiliated with that site, obviously, I am in redding, ca they are in china.
If anybody has any other links for a good selection of Tamiya of 1/10 scalebodies, Id love to get them. I think I actually enjoy building the bodys more than driving them.

Got the body from Drew at TopSecret. He has an ebay store that I order from too. Here's a link: http://stores.ebay.com/ProjectDriftI...=p4634.c0.m322
Doesn't seem to have them in stock right now they. But wouldn't hurt to shoot him a PM.

Im running the LP Tdrifts on mine. I believe it is 26mm front and 32mm rears. But I ran it on normal Tdrifts before and it was good.

Just picked this up about a week ago - HPI Pro-D. It's in great shape but missing the center spur gear assembly. I have one on the way from Hong Kong, but it's a looooong trip and I've been waiting a minute or two. Motor is an HPI Flux 5700 system, my first experience with brushless.
I have some LP32 and LP35 wheels and tires on the way, along with an HPI Aero Supra. Tomorrow I'm off to buy paint - I'll probably get gold, white, and silver, and see what happens.

Wow Looks like a HPI Cyber10b, but sporting a CF chassis and touring arms. I was looking to do the same thing to a cyber 10, but their discontinued and I can't find one anywhere. looks like a sweet ride your building. If you need a spare parts try the Hotbodies D4 WC, it's basically a race version of the cyber10, all CF and purple alum.

Thought i'd throw mine in for review... Would be nice to see what people think:

Then i got some lights, and a spoiler:

If you guys think its cool, i'll end up getting a new one painted. This one got some bad scratches when (dispite better judgement and all common sense) i let a friend drive it... It took him 30 seconds to drive it off the basketball court and nose grind onto the sidewalk, damaging the front decals. You can probably see the scratches.
He failed even after i put the trim to 50% max throttle...

Is that a custom light kit?
I did something like that when I had my drifter, had some narrow beamed LEDs, tossed them in a clear straw, and taped the straw to the underbody of the body shell.
Turned out great!
Powered the kit off of 9V (had lights and everything!)

Yeah, the lights are basically just 4 ultra bright lights (2 each for each light), backed with some black electrical tape. Really needs something better to hold it in.
What your seeing is the light shining through the stock stickers. I did some experimentation and found that it looked the best, since i couldnt find a light bucket for it. Also, it keeps the stock look i liked when the lights arnt on, as opposed to looking real ugly otherwise.
The underglow are just some strips of LED's i got off ebay,being powered by a small horizon helicopter battery.
I'd have gone green, but they didnt have it =(

It's not a dollhouse assbag, it's a garage. And that's my RedBull arch way. We use the display stuff at shows and demos.











These were made for a Breast Cancer Demo we're doing in April. They will outline the top arch of the pink ribbon.
