| Yes Steve, I know what you mean, I have seen the prices of a lot of these hop-ups and they can be pricey, where possible I do make my own and will certainly do so for this car when the time comes. I did quite a lot for the Scooby that you can see in the pics above, that was another old car (an early Thunder Tiger DT10) Some parts on the newer version had changed quite a bit....So I modded the old car to make use of the newer parts. This car now goes like Stink.
It's easy when you know how....I already have quite a few ideas in mind to improve the Chassis/Running gear for the Skyline too...none of them difficult to do...will see how the car runs first on the chassis as it is.
Regards.......Mark. |
