  1. thanks, I was really after an exact length though from eyelet to eyelet
  2. Hi Could someone with a supershot please measure their front & rear dampers in mm from eyelet to eyelet for me please thanks Jak
  3. I love my Big Wig, but it looks much much better without all the yellow plastic everywhere IMO.
  4. Respond to what? this topic has been done to death, so why start it again? It's as simple as everything else you can purchase in life, don't like it?, don't buy it. Just stay in your basement wrapped up snug in your Tamiya pyjamas ( at least they havn't been re released yet ) & pretend that Mr Tamiya didn't re release anything. & don't use the internet............
  5. I love how people start contentious topics then, just walk away......................
  6. thanks for the replies so can I just put the bear hawk gear set inside the blitzer gearbox case to sort out the gearing with smaller wheels?
  7. G'day I really want a bear hawk, but am over restoring old cars, would it beasy enough to buy a brand new Stadium blitzer & convert it to a bear hawk, obviously wheels, body mounts & body need to be changed, but anything else? It looks like it might be quite easy? but then if it was everyone would be doing it? regards Jak
  8. Anyway - flogging a horse that has been done to death on the Australian forums over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. My head hurts Darryn, I need a Bagz Banger...........
  9. Heres some vids of mine & my sons 13T brushless Sand Scorchers. it makes them much more fun to drive, but to be honest I think the 17T would be more than enough! Although having your sand scorcher do wheel stands on the sand is pretty cool! Enjoy Jak
  10. I would normally never say this about anything Tamiya does, but I think my bling bling HotShot was a little bit better effort. The Gold wheels & gold body do look good though Jak
  11. Thanks guys I too asked Jason for a Boomer shell but he didnt' reply. he's normally pretty good & I've purchased lots of things off him over the years for excellent prices. regards Jak
  12. G'day guys, I have been searching everywhere for a Boomerang body & wing, I would have thought that the re release would have meant plenty of supply? Can anyone help in pointing me in the right direction? regards Jak
  13. thanks for all the replies. Southy, thank u for your reply, (hoping u would) can u tell me exactly which system I should buy, I want for both mine & my sons SS as we are over the sports tuned/tamiya esc combo on the beach. Just need to know which kv motor & amp esc to get. regards Jak
  14. Hi guys Can u point me in the right direction with regards to a 13t brushless setup for my Sand Scorchers, what should I be looking for & whats best, basically need something a bet better than a sportstuned with a lipo, with more reliability I found these, your thoughts would be most appreciatted as I don't quite understand the kv rating & the esc amp rating, ie: which is best. i only drive my scorchers on the beach. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/EZRUN-COMBO-13-5T-2...=item255fd3d630 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/eZRun-Combo-B1-13T-...=item2eb2952f54 regards Jak
  15. Thats correct, whilst I love the Hotshot suspension from an engineering point of view & also aesthetically, the Supershot hop up made it handle alot better regards Jak
  16. I forgot to add , I don't mean to talk u out of the HotShot, but I bought my son a Boomerang & it's a far better car all round than the Hotshot , video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpU5upLYu-o Just a thought for you regards Jak
  17. http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...88&id=13023 http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...82&id=13023 A couple of mine for something a little bit different regards Jak
  18. Thanks for the replies. I have since learnt that some people are buying the rally style wheels in the mini/beetle 42 x 24mm size, then using 1/10 tamiya rally blocks by cutting & re glueing them to make them smaller. That sounds feasable. The ripmax ones look as though they would go nicely on a 959 as far as scale looks go I think. It says they are 1.9 inches (48mm) & the 959 wheels are 46mm, so they might look just right? Anyone have any pics of their 959 with the ripmax wheels & tyres? regards jak
  19. G'day guys I need the 2 roof mounted lights that face the rear on the Porsche 959 asap, drivers heads too if anyone can spare 2 Any help would be most appreciatted regards Jak
  20. G'day guys As topic says, my driver for a Sand Rover I am restoring for Xmas needs soem arms, he can't steer without them! Any help would be most appreciatted regards Jak
  21. http://www2.ripmax.net/item.asp?itemid=Z-R...;Category=Z1650 Are these ripmax wheels & tires any good? regards Jak
  22. G'day guys Finally got some Avante wheel hubs so that i can run some aftermarket wheels & tyres on my 959, I'm also building a rally beetle (M04) at the same time so I ordered some white rally wheels, just a nice white 5 spoke design, same size as the beetles Mo4 standard wheels, then got some tamiya rally block tires which have just arrived. Now, the Tamiya rally block tires are too big for the white rally wheels, the rally wheels are smaller than the 959 wheels, so now I have nothing that fits each other. I have no idea! Can someone point me in the right direction please, i really wanted to have the same design wheels the 959 & beetle, but they seem to be all out of whack with the scaling. Any suggestions would be most appreciatted regards Jak
