Well, in another thread when I was chatting it up with Alfred, he had mentioned to me about snapping some pics of my build up of the micro I just recently purchased. So tonight i'm posting some pics of what it looked like before I tore it down.
Remember, its nothing special, nothing creative, nothing that is going to make you go... WOW!~ ... just a micro put together by .. well.. me. Parts that I hope to get installed into it were all suggestions made from members of either this site or one18th.com. :) I will update this with pics from time to time over the next couple of weeks as I put all that stuff into it. So in case you are really bored you can swing by and look to see what I have added. BTW - If you are wondering about why I have a very red blanket on my desk, its actually an auto technicians drop sheet for the seat. Its also VERY good to find small parts on.. lol. I will have to snap another body pic once its complete, because the front end didnt come into focus, only the windshield area (woops). Enjoy. |
Love the black bold look of the paint on the Skyline, simple yet attractive. I see your going to be busy for the next couple of days, your going to enjoy installing all the new stuff, and i was going to ask you how come you didnt get aluminum universals the stockers wont hold up well.:D

Well I have seen HPI Uni's for sale on Ebay, but im holding out for my LHS. My LHS already has a pair on order for me (along with about 7-8 other people). They are badly backordered as most of you know on here, right from the manufacturing level. So when they finally arrive, he is going to send over an email to me. Which at this point, I dont even need them yet. I havent even finished fitting the HS-85 onto the dual link plate.. lol. Hmmmm I should snap a pic of the current stage :) ~edit - ill snap the pic tomorrow after work.. im going to bed.. LOL |
which ones did you get, keep us posted on hooking your micro up man.:D

I should have some time tonight to work on it and snap a pic of the current state as I mentioned the other day. Turned out it was a busy weekend for me, went snowboarding saturday night and sunday went to the Toronto Rock (lacrosse) game. :) |

Current pic of my ride as I had mentioned. This is how it has sat for the past week and a couple days.... lol. Which im sure is how its going to sit till this weekend at least. The servo and plate I have messed around with a little bit, but nothing else. Its going to be one slow build. I had hoped to be out racing by mid january-ish. That never happened.... lol. Hopefully I can finish rebuilding and installing the parts before spring time :D *crosses fingers*

just take your time with the build, you will be much happier in the end when you have all the new parts installed.:D

Im just happy to have a chassis and something to focus some time on, racing is one thing, but I think tinkering with it.. that is the fun part of the hobby :) |

My other LHS that I just started going too, im not 100% on what they stock for 1:18 parts. But I do know they keep a stock on 1:18 rtr kits. Some used cars for sale and some models and I guess about what everyone else carries. |

Soo its basically better to fake being sick to do what i want. |
