Hi Guys, im building my ST Pro at the moment, but i have become angry at this setup, im still busy on my front wishbones, bone i have noticed that i have 1x 8x16 ball bearing missing, the kit should have 18 and i only received 17. Did any of you have the same problems as me? [Front and Rear Diff 4x 8x16's / centre diff 1x 8x16 / front hubs 4x 8x16 now i still require another 6 bearings. 2x for the rear gearbox and 4x for the rear hubs.]

Are you positive you didn't misplace the 2 packages (Tubes) of bearings?

no im sure, i received 2 tubes with bearings in it, and currently i have 5 bearings left still need to do the rear gearbox and rear hubs.

you can email them and wait a week or so to get the one bearing, or go buy one at the lhs, not an issue really. might as well buy a whole set, they won't last forever either.

Loose the OFNA Fuel filter, that one caused the same problem on my Hyper ST, that thing leaks

Well Its All Broken In

This thing drives GREAT.!

I really like the way it lifts up the rear inside wheel while turning, looks cool

Just a few questions again.

Can I wash the wheels + tyres, Theres so much of grease + drit on the rear left tyre + wheel, because the exhaust gasses get blown straight to it.

Second is there any way to stop the body from melting onto the exhaust.?

Thanks Guys

20% simple green will leave it looking brand new, the key is let it sit on there for a minute, then rinse. take off radio tray and engine then spray and hose off, wd-40 and done. the pipe looks like its sitting a bit hight, try lifting the header and have the pipe more horizontal, it rests on the side guard, melt that instead.

The truck is clean

Only the Rear Left tyre + wheel is disgusting because the exhaust blows the smoke into it.

So is it safe just to wash the wheels + tyres.?

Yeah I cant get my JP 4 to go lower down.

Have tried everything,.

It hasent even seen dirt yet [:-]

I just brushed whatever lil' was on it.

My only complaint with it is the brakes.!

It really needs better ones.

Ill try re-adjusting them now.

Thanks

I use exhaust heat shield from an atv. I get it from my work since I am a motorcycle tech. If you go to you local kawasaki dealer and order part #16073-0014 and it is a huge heat shield for like 15-20 buck and you can do probably about 10 cars or so. It is stuck under the rear fender and protects the exhaust from melting the plastic. Just clean off the inside of your body and cut of a sheet and stick it on. I do it to all of my bodies and they stay like new.

Thanks

We dont have a Kawasaki dealer, but I know a place where I can get it

I prefer Yamaha

sportbikes like the R1 and R6 also have heat shield inside of there side fairings that is the same as the atv's. Just make sure you get a pretty big piece because they are all different prices so find the biggest one so you have plenty left in the future.

I got a 6 by 6

Pretty big I must say lol.

Ill do a lil' bit on this body

I have a mugen body coming soon, will do it right on that.

Cost me there abouts of um $40 I think.

here's a couple shots of the mods i've done. 8.5 c-hubs, brake horn, hub extender locks (my favorite, no more 3 wheel action), losi 8 shocks with extensions (still need a little work to get full down travel), radio box, ace and hitec servos and sts d21b with dynamite 007 HT pipe and header.

Hey J_Blaze,
Can you take a look at the photo and let me know if ive mounted the top centre diff plate right. Ive done it as the manual states, but your photos show it the other way round. Is there a reason you turned it round?

Cheers,

A

do you really only need that little of an antenna for 2.4ghz radio?

That intersting as I have that center plate turned 180 degrees.

mate..ive checked and re checked..i have them on callipers rite infront of me..they are 16mm shocks..ive bought 4 sets now off fleebay and they are all 16mm shocks...

sorry, it was backwards, i was working on the brakes to get on some aluminum servo arms. its back to normal now. actually, i realized if i bend the brake bar thing, it engages better, instead of having to pull all the way out, i'll get some pics...

Wrat, why have you bought four new sets of shocks off flea-bay? Do they break easily or what?? So what you're saying is that the stock Hyper ST Pro shocks are 16mm??

IF that's the case, are there any bigger that would fit on?

Guys, ive ordered the Racers Edge Super High Temp Brake Disks for Kyosho/Hyper/Jammin/Hot Bodies Buggies (2).
Are they any good.

Also took the Himoto V2 High Down Force Wing, any idea if that would fit.

Thanks

Some photos would be great, thanks Blaze.

This is my first build and im really taking my time (Call of Duty 4 has proven a BIG distraction).

If I could only get my diffs to stop leaking....

Wrat I thought the same thing about the hyper shocks.
If you measure the outside of the hyper shock it is 16mm where as the kyosho shocks use a 16mm shock piston.
I have'nt done it yet but measure your shock piston and you will find it isnt 16mm unlike the kyoshos
One of the guys at the club has big bore shocks and looking at them they are physically fatter than mine, looks almost 18mm, anyway hope that helps

No one know how the brakes will work [&o]

I have been trying to find the right pre filter for my ST Pro.
It seems that there are 2 different filter assembly's available.
The problem is that they both have the same part number. For OFNA the part number is 28065
And for Hobao the part number is 88065

This is my filter



And this is the other filter that I have seen on other ST Pro's. See the thickness of the black edge of the filter.


When I order a pre filter the part I get is the grey one. When I want the creme one that is wider.
Does Hobao\OFNA know that they are two different parts?
If so what is the part number for the creme one and where can I buy them?

Thanks

if they are similar to the losi's you'll be happy.
