Bombproof vorza artr plus spares. More added. Looks receivers wheels etc

I built this over the last six months with the intention of building a bulletproof vorza I could really thrash, the vorza is incredibly tough anyway but after owning around 4/5 vorzas I'd definitely seen some weak areas that needed sorting so that's how this build got started.

Firstly the shock towers will nearly always buckle after a lot of heavy use so I've fitted two shock towers front and back, now it should stand up to 99% of abuse, next the front hinge pin holder, this always snaps on stock vorzas so the hotbodies aluminium upgrade part fits nice, is twice as thick as the stock part and I've never snapped one yet, it's normally the first thing I'd upgrade on the vorza. Next the t bone bumpers, an excellent upgrade and provide lots of protection, I also fitted d8 alloy hubs front and rear, no more snapped hubs, titanium turnbuckles front and rear, the front steering plate and chassis brace are also alloy, diffs are from a hotbodies d8, centre diff has the hardened and lightened spur gear and the d8 lightened wheel hexes, also the front and centre diff have the lightened diff outputs fitted. Various new plastics fitted including new wing mounts, new battery box, new steering assembly, new centre diff mounts and new servo/Rx box with some used but good condition bits, there's a few bits that don't look the best aesthetics wise but perform as they should.

The savox sc 0252mg takes care of steering, still have the box for servo so will include that, the esc is a brand new mamba monster 1, unsoldered and was a replacement from castle, I took the lower half of the case from it for another esc so it's only got a top half of the case, I've mounted it on some foam and fitted it to chassis but really it needs the rest of the case before I'd run it. The motors the trusty castle 2200kv motor, used in a few rides and works flawlessly although it does have a dent in the side (see pic) it doesn't affect it at all, I've fully tested the motor and servo but obviously not the esc as I don't want to solder it up. The motor mounts been dremmeled to allow the motor to fit, it's fitted ok but could use some more dremmel action to provide a better fit or just swap it for a flux torq motor with someone [emoji1303]

Its rolling on proline step ups barely used on kyosho green rims. Sadly don't think I have a body shell, tons of spares though including lots of d8 lightened bits and spare used alloy hubs etc, new spiral crown gears, steering assembly, hubs plus a spare set of new shock towers.

All in all there's a fair bit of kit, it needs some work to finish but should be an awesome ride when it's complete and should be one of the strongest vorzas on the planet [emoji1]

Anyway pics and lots of them

Any questions just ask. Price is £400 all in, that's fully insured delivery to your door and all PayPal fees covered etc, obviously I'd do it cheaper for cash on collection, can meet anywhere near Liverpool, Warrington etc

Next up two nano tech lipos 2s 5300mah 50-100c hard case. Not had a great deal of use battery connectors look to have slightly warped on the + side but doesn't affect in any way. d77b5285d53172c5e318b92e7aa6b523.jpgeb04f77b923a81a3e33e82ebd4de3f00.jpgd99b2be1e3163cecc440dabcd778524d.jpga3bb226527bd2f8aa17c0ce9717a3736.jpg I'll take £30 the pair all in. There £25 each on hobbyking.

Next we have well used badlands on vorza rims. Still som life left £14 all in. And the proline bead locks, not sure what hex but it's big 23-24mm not sure sadly lost the screws but may find them soon, I only bought them for the tyres so no use to me no idea on price for these so say £20 all in if I'm way off let me know a85070fbfd96923f94618a437d8a64b4.jpgb748ba31216871cd587f24175b4aa5fd.jpg5d71898f52dbc01d91671d1d013a0712.jpg550e12d458025eb18a81db3ca6b4eb97.jpg

Is the castle a genuine or clone what esc is It? 

 

£240 For the lot fully rtr with all the spares and lipos? 

Are the lipos fresh or wearing out?

Sorry I meant the motor mate with so many clones selling on ebay I had to ask but trust you so believe it's genuine now. But it's still worth asking. 

 

I am tempted this is the best vorza deal I've seen usually 300 basic rtr. But my Mrs just lost her bag with phone and money so not sure I can now.
