The FAV / Wild One is a great build in my opinion. The one recommendation (which was advice from Tamiyaclub when I was building mine) was to paint the driver / body first, before building the chassis. Because these bits are needed along the way it means there's no frustrating wait between steps and it can all just go together at once. I found it a much more rewarding way to build it!

Ninjagogo I think you need to tell the boss you don't feel so well and need to go home to (build the wild one) get some rest.

Good tip, cheers for that, i'll have to hold my lad off at arms length till we get the driver painted, im thinking of going for a stig type look.

Whats your opinion on the rs540 motor ive bought with it? not fitting that straight away but hoping to later when we learn to drive a bit more

im liking your style lof thinking but i didnt get here till 10 this morning due to going for a pre op or id be coughing and spluttering like a good un lol

Will go really well with the Sport Tuned / RS540. My FAV has Wild One dampers and a Dirt Tuned motor (27T). The Sport Tuned is not far off the specs of the Dirt Tuned albeit non-rebuildable (closed-can) so I think you'll find it to be more than quick enough.

Bagged some spare chassis plates and strut towers for my Vajra off ebay...just in case!!

Today the post man brought me these :-) 

[firefoxussr]

I got this in the mail last month.  Now it sits at work atop a modified TA05.

Obviously it's vintage.  It's my runner body.  I have a NOS one too.

Is that a HKS Skyline? I wish someone repro'd those decals, I've always wanted one in that livery, and the bodyshell is easily available nowadays too. V.envious!
