  1. Do I care about them? Yes. Am I talented enough/patient enough to get them perfect. No. True Story, I had a NIB Loctite R34 on a TA04. I paid good money for it, but i did get it cheap. However I decided to build it up as I hated having the other 3 GTRs on display, with the Loctite one in the Box. I struggled so much with the decals, and I was so upset with the end result I nearly gave up with the entire Hobby. I genuinely nearly sold my 50ish RC Collection, and quit a Hobby Ive been into since I was in Primary School. It took me a few days to even look at my RCs after that. So now, if its an important RC, I buy it built/finished not NIB
  2. Brilliant. Thank you. Happy to support!
  3. Bizarrely Ive had an email saying my subscription has ended? Within a few minutes of paying for the year? See upload?
  4. Awesome. Not really interested in the Showroom side (that may change!) but Im glad a found a way of financially supporting this great forum. Subscribed!
  5. Must admit, everyone raves over the Tiger Stripe or Pilot Sport (I do own them two as well to be fair), but to me the Repsol is by far the best one for me.
  6. Is this the forum or something separate?

  8. I basically havd the full Arrowmax Catalogue of tools. No complaints from me
  9. I can only echo this. Other than sentiment, theres not much logic to running Tamiya electronics full stop, unless its a shelfer, and if thats the case, the fact it wont run shouldnt matter. Tamiya ESC's and Servo's are ridiculously over priced, and perform terribly in comaprison to the competition. But hey its your money
  10. I bought a Blue Painted R34 Z Tune shell so we played Body/Wheel Merry Go Round First of all. Correct wheels onto the Repsol Cosworth I moved the Evo 7 WRC and Rally Wheels to the TA02 I bought just for the wheels above I then put my new Z Tune R34 Body and some 2 Piece Tamiya Wheels on my SRX. The wheels rub on the TT02SRX, but its a shelfer so not the end of the world Blue is just so much better than box art! I know the Z Tune is Silver in real life I may have a plan for the clear wing......
  11. For the above. Found this on eBay Painted to a brilliant standard so I bought it Cant beat a Blue R34
  12. I have the 2 piece ones in storage for my Pilot Sport Escort. I may put them on but theyre a bit faded. It currently sports the same ones as my Repsol above. I feel a wheel changeover soon
  13. Was browsing eBay whilst my Mrs watched the Rugby on Saturday (im not into Rugby) and I noticed this. Had a long chat with the guy selling it, lovely guy, and struck a deal. It arrived today Now you may be thinking, why has he bought that old TA02 for? Hasn't he just sold 5 of those for a 'clear out'? Well yes, but when I bought my Tamiya Repsol Cosworth, I didnt have the correct wheels. Ill be honest, I prefer the fake Rally Style ones I have on it, but recently Ive been making some perfecting tweaks to my stable, so I decided to get the period correct kit ones. I'm not going to lie and say Ive been looking every day for #50711, but when they did come up, the seemed to be very expensive or battered. From my limited knowledge, they only came on the 1 Cosworth model. I'm sure an expert will let me know I could have got some from 'X' but hey, I have 4, decent. condition ones now. https://tamiyabase.com/parts/1373 They will end up on this As I say, I probably prefer the ones that are on it, but hey. This is how it should be and how I remember it. It also gives me a spare chassis, so I can move my Mitsubishi Evo 7 WRC off my SRX onto this chassis (Rally car, rally chassis) and Ive picked a road car shell for my SRX (Touring Car Shell for a Touring Car). Make sense? It does to me! I think!
  14. Hopefully tomorrow is a good day. Looking forward to seeing what secret kits you ordered
