  1. I rebuilt the car with all the new parts I got for it off Ebay which include: IG002 Front Bumper IG003 Urethane Bumper which I haven't used as I got it with the Bumper and I am just going to keep it as a spare. IG103 Shock Stay to replace the metal one that the guy fitted to it IG109B 2 Speed Gear Set to replace the stripped ones that where on it when I got it. I also but a screw set as it was missing some screws from the rear,I also bought HPI Z619 Binder Head screw to screw the bumper to the shock stay as it didn't have any. Here is a photo of the rebuilt car Here is a photo of the straightened front centre drive shaft. Here is a photo of the new 2 speed gears fitted. Here is a photo of the front bumper fitted like it should be. There is one little screw missing from the steering servo which I will put in once I find one in my box of screws. I think the reason why the 2 speed was stripped is the chassis is a modified buggy chassis but the person didn't do a good job and the gears caught the chassis so they got stripped,but I have fixed the problem by filing the edges of the opening so they are nowhere near the 2 speed gears. I will be buying some upgrades for it when I have the money,But I bought a Protoform PF8-GT Bodyshell for it and I have a new Chassis coming tomorrow. Here is a photo with the Subaru Body Shell fitted and with my GRP Tires on it.
  2. Been wanting a Kyosho Inferno GT for some time since I seen one but couldn't get one for the price I wanted to pay so I left it for a bit and just by chance I got this one off Ebay for
  3. Well I thought it was going to be hard to get PD0687 Main Gear Shaft for my S2 Rally Game as no-one was selling one on-line new and tonight I thought I would just look on ebay to see if anyone was selling one like I've been doing since I got my S2 buggy,and there it was in front of me a Main Gear Shaft complete with main gear taken from a used EB4 S2 buggy so I bought it quick before someone else bought it and I also bought a new main gear for when the used one needs replacing. I am so glad that is sorted,now I just need to get the other bits at the weekend when I have more money.
  4. Well today I started the cleaning and rebuilding of my rally game first up I stripped the bits of the centre diff and fitted the Egral centre diff mount,then I fitted it to the new chassis Plus I added the self cooling brakes but need to use threadlock on the threaded screws when I get some next weekend. Then I started the cleaning of the front end and I was going to completely strip it down but I just decided to remove the front knuckles and shocks,then use the tooth brush I use to clean my cars with to clean all the dirt off. Then I fitted the front end to the new chassis. Then I cleaned the rear end and fitted it to the new chassis. And then I refitted the front knuckles and also fitted the wheels,I also refitted the shocks once they were cleaned. Then it was time to refit the engine to the chassis once I cleaned some of the dirt off it. The radio gear was then refitted after it was cleaned up,also the front bumper was fitted. The underside of the car all nice and Shiny and new. And seeing as I can't fit my Citroen Xsara Body till I get a reamer I fitted my Subaru Imperza as that already had holes in it. I'm hoping I can get some more upgraded parts for next weekend,also I decided not to fit the Egral front and rear shock towers off my S1 rally game as I couldn't be bothered to remove them so I will just buy new ones for this rally game. I also need to buy a new fuel tank as the one on it was knackered.
  5. Yes it's just a stock Eb4 S2 Pro but I will be fitting all the Egral parts as I have the Egral Decom centre Diff I bought recently and the front and rear Ergal Shock towers from My S1 Rally Game,plus the Self cooling brake discs I bought ages ago and I will be getting some more upgraded parts next weekend.
  6. Today I started with the break down of the buggy and as I was removing the fuel tank and the engine there was a lot of dirt,as the guy I bought it off never bothered to clean it after running it and just stored it in a cupboard till I bought it off him as can be seen by these two photos. Then I was going to leave it till Sunday but thought I might as well continue with the break down so I have broke it down to a bare chassis,and I will strip the front and rear ends on Sunday as I'm out tomorrow. Here's a photo of everything taken off the chassis and I had to clean all the dirt off the chassis as I couldn't just leave it covered in dirt. And once I have done that I will clean everything then I can start the re-build in to a EB4 S2 Rally Game.
  7. Not posted on here in a few years and also not ran any of my cars for a few years too but I'm back with this little Build. I few years ago I bought a thunder tiger 1/8 body shell to use on my Thunder Tiger EB4 S1 Rally Game but found out my rally game wasn't wide enough so it got put to one side and forgot about till about a few weeks ago,so I decided to see if I could get a cheap second-hand Thunder Tiger EB4 S2 Rally Game off Ebay but I had no lucky in getting one as all that popped up all the time was an S1 which is what I have already. This is the Body Shell I bought a few years ago. So I decided to look for a cheap EB4 S2 Buggy on Ebay and won this one for £70 without a body or controller as he said he misplaced them when moving house but didn't matter,it also had one or two small things missing but that didn't matter as they are cheap enough to get off ebay. Here's a few Pics on the Buggy as I got it. Then I bought all the parts I needed to convert the Buggy to a Rally game plus a new chassis and a Egral Centre Diff mount and I'm goning fit the Ergal front and rear shock mounts off my other rally game and then buy them again to fit back on my other rally game,plus I'll fit the spare Self cooling brake discs I have and it will also have some more upgrades as and when I can buy them. And I'll post as I strip and clean it and as I rebuild it. So stay Tuned.
  8. I have bought the Hyper 7 .21 for £222 from Modelsport and got it today and it's my first rallycross buggy and I like it but I will be fitting a different servo for the steering and fit my Failsafe in it tomorrow,but can't run it in till I get some new Rechargeable batteries as my old ones are naff and nolonger hold there charge anymore.
  9. Ziggy I have a few spare Futaba servos I can use to replace the steering one that comes in with the buggy.
  10. Looking good there doom like the blue alloy bits I've ordered the Hyper 7 21 from modelsport yesterday for a late Birthday present to myself just need to order a few other things for it next pay day.
  11. Not good having to have injections to help you to get about as i had 8 injections of Dry Ice into my lower back yesterday to sort my back pain out but today i feel like crap,and can't move much with out my back hurting from where the needles went in as it is still swolen and sore.
  12. You just use a electric airplane starter on the Flywheel thats how we started ours when it had an engine in it.
  13. Could be a homemade Stock car as we built our own from plans we got of some bloke down south.
  14. I'm 27 and i will be 28 next April 11th.
