DO u know what impedance the head unit can handle ? What impedance the speakers are ? Other option would be a crossover, though have no idea how they would fair with ur active sub. The question is do we know to much about this ! When i had my first car, I just bridged the speaker and it caused no problem to the old Panasonic head unit in it......now i think impedance ! Ed

SUprisingly well built.... I crashed mine into the boiling spuds onto xmas day, and about 3 weeks ago into a bowl of washing up....... I keep convincing myself it goes where I tell it !!!

The stumbling bloke is the art part of what she uses it for....ideally you want lots of RAM, and ideally quick processor / fast FSB so an Intel chip, at least 1 gig ram. Having a lower spec machine won't stop her using graphics packages at all, just make them a little bit slower (I mess about with photoshop, so don't have a high spec machine, as quite happy to wait an extra second here or their) What does she use it for / want to use it for in terms of "art."As if this isn't really a factor, any of the cheap laptops are fine for everyday use. The important factors in my mind is, ability to replace battery, good warranty. I am still using a Sony laptop which is a PII 400 with 128mb ram with windows 98....fine for internet / word some photoshop. Dell do the Inspiron 1501 for £350 ( http://www.dell.co.uk/ ) Don't be fooled by dell telling you are only under warranty for 90 days standard uk sales of goods apply for 1 year (but does not include software screw ups...i.e u get a virus) 2 year warranty £71 (I don't work for dell ) The comet ones start off at £400....

Try playing with vlookups embedded with H lookups they are fun..... or my personnel favourite, identifying duplicates in a column using a recursive count function. Ed (professional excel nerd - pays the mortgage so can't complain!)

Just replacing the front Bulkhead after my little crash, and it looks like I have to cut 2 pieces of plastic that are in place from the moulding process, but wanted to check: Can someone check theirs for me, it's where the steering sits. Ta Ed

After my recent accident - Revo V Curb - Topic I have been looking for spare parts, and this is what my cost is: List Price - £38.25 Modelsport - £29.39 ebay us seller - £14.94 US shop - £24.87 All these prices are ex postage. The ebay sale would be ok for import duty, but I may incur cost with the shop. I know our tax is 17.5% v 5% but, still that doesn't account for the extra cost we incur! Anyone have any recommendations for cheap parts suppliers ? Anyone brought from 'rcmaxpower' on ebay ? Ta ! Ed

Normally it has no problem with curbs..... except this one was a little larger.... Ironically enough, I was using the curb to do somersaults with earlier, must of p'sed off the curb....and it bit back

Thanks for the replies, I was er going flat out, and the road I was aiming got too narrow....well that's what I keep telling myself I've not started pricing things up yet, get paid on Tue, so will do it then The chassis is slighly bent up, which I can straighten. The servos / diff appears to have survived, so v lucky. The parts I will need looks like : the plastic part that holds the diff, also the wishbones link into this part Wishbone pivot pin the small piece of metal that was a skid plate I assume 1 parts that the servo link to in the middle to turn the wheels Possibly 1 rocker, if I can't drill out a screw that sheared. Think I will start looking through the exploded diagrams over a pint tonight to ease the pain Ed
