  1. The chassis arms are made of good plastic, very strong but can be flexed. Plus if an arm does break then I replace an arm, if the chassis breaks I'm rebuilding the whole car.
  2. My TB02 unofficial rally car. Had to grind the front arms to get some droop. Apart from that, no specific rally parts
  3. Started with the masking and internal decals.
  4. All I really need is the snorkel that goes up the side window, but I'll take the whole j parts if anyone has them. Thanks.
  5. Chassis rebuild is complete. Hex screws, bearings, alloy prop shaft, motor mount, shocks and steering. The Jazrider steering was very sloppy in the bit that joins the two sides together, a little brass tubing solved this, now it's very precise. Was gonna stay brushed but went with brushless in the end, just a cheap GoolRC combo I had spare. Added some scale brake disks to the sexy alloy wheels, I didn't add the brake calipers yet as there's a ridge on the steering knuckles that gets in the way, maybe I'll leave 'em off, dunno yet. and also magnetic body posts as I want this to look quite scale. Lots of bodywork next, vents, mesh, exhausts etc, and I need to make a roll cage and bulkhead for behind the drivers cockpit.
  6. Somebody knows somethings, in the past two weeks there have been many Falcons going for as little as £110, including a shelf queen that went for £150.
  7. Added some decals(more to come), and working lights. Then finish the driver and I think that's it.
  8. Tamico will send to the UK but have a minimum order of 151 euro, you have to email them.
  9. UK is great for current car parts , but anything more than a few years old can be a nightmare. The only two places I can find the parts I need are in Germany, Modellbau-Seidl are not shipping to UK, and Tamico have a minimum order of 151 euros.Even Jap stores are out. I'm tempted to buy another car just to get the parts for Tamico.
  10. Tamico has told me they now have a minimum order to the UK of 151 Euros, where else can I order rare tamiya parts?
  11. Got the blue backed with silver and added a little white, next will be florescent red and orange flames. It's been over 2 years since I airbrushed anything and I made a few stupid of mistakes on the paint, nothing a few strategically placed decals won't fix. At least I'll know what I'm doing when it comes to my DF01 Lancer build.
  12. Got some lights and some sexy scale exhausts for the sides. And I need to fit a square peg in a round hole. My new file set and maybe a Dremel should do the trick.
