I picked up this NIB kit a month ago in a sale as the price and value for money was just too good to pass up. When you consider that you get universal drive shafts all round, 21 ball bearings, adjustable turnbuckles throughout, and front and rear stabilizers it starts to make a lot of sense as a runner. I had a set of VQS shocks doing nothing as well as a new set of Avante wheels so I've fitted those, although I'll likely use the kit supplied wheels when I get around to running it. It's the first of this chassis series that I've ever built and I really enjoyed how it all went together. I addressed the A5 part weakness issue by fitting stainless steel shafts and circlips in place of the supplied screw set as many other people do. I decided to paint the shell in PS-59 rather than PS-4 as I really like that dark blue metallic colour, and it makes the decals really pop especially the yellow. I backed the blue in PS-12 silver. When I do get a chance to run it off road I'll update the photos. Hope you like it. Comments welcome as always. Cheers guys.

The Avante wheels look great on there and compliment the body color really well. Looks great!

I think the terra scorcher must be the best bang for the money as far as Tamiya 4WD goes. Yours looks fabulous in that blue and with those Avante wheels and tires.

Avante wheels suit it very well

Those wheels do look really good on the terra. It's a very nice car and with a few little tweaks runs great.

Really a great result you have here. Looks great with the highcaps, and agree on the darker blue, it suits it well.
