Default Kyosh Ultima GP & Quick Tech Hobby?

Hi guys, I hadn't started up my Kyosho Ultima ST GP in over a year. i finally bought some new fuel line to get it running and with in 5 minutes i crashed it into a rock snapping my Front chassis & upper plate.

so as far as i can tell the truck has been dicontinued and tower hobbies no longer carry replacment parts.

What other online stores are there that you all trust? i found one called "Quick tech Hobby":

http://www.quicktechhobby.com/Mercha...Store_Code=QTH

but i'm not sure of their reputation.

any help will be greatly appreciated,

thanks

RS6 - $1.99
RS7 - $1.99
UMW109B - $10.99
UMW110 - $10.99
UM130B - $4.99

Type the part numbers in with no dashes in the search bar. All the numbers are there, just some aren't in the listing for the vehicle. As for the older cars...Kyosho has their work cut out for them.

yeah i saw they were remaking them too. Only problem is... very pricey! But this makes me wonder... if they are STILL making them, could they be ready to update or redesign a new one?

The kit number has changed. I'm only suspecting some revisions in the graphics and maybe an engine change. I don't expect any biggies. The price will come down eventually.

well they better get to it! Since they have the factory here in america now, should be a LOT easier to sell.

In the years to come, I am expecting Kyosho to become more mainstream. About time to see the Ultima R in the big-time races. It all just trickles down from there. Popularity leads to more sales, meaning wider distribution, resulting in a lower price tag at the end. Is it 1986 again? Maybe not yet, but Kyosho is off to a good start.
