  1. There's quite a good few reviews coming through for um! Not enough shouting about um! Wounder what they'd be like rwd ? Anyone got a blown front diff that can report on its ability as rwd, big old truck getting the ar5e out! That little front wheel drive interested me you no, I used to race fwd locked up aswell and you just drag the rear end around with ya lol! I can just imagine it with these 5th scales it would be good, fast as aswell in the corners, Interesting to see!
  2. Iv got full front and rear ends with the diff still in, spur gears and carriers, brakes, chassis, a nice little 26cc engine very little use its had! Didn't think it would hang around for long! Anyone got a yama buggy for sale let me know ill but it! Lol, But Yeh matey if you need owt drop me a pm and we'll get you sorted out lol!
  3. I'll take blame we just want to know well i do really, are they as much fun as a rwd baja? Personally no I don't, or can't imagine them to be! Lol! But from what you say andy, the 4x4 are better? Did you race the baja andy? Full on like ?
  4. Sound andy! Cool man! What's it like compared to the baja? Are you getting on with it? What they like as in speed,? They look every so heavy compeard to the baja, Mi mate stripped his back to 5b from sc and its crazy power to weight lol. Front ends just up all the time power of the reed, a 32 reed at that lol! Beast! And it's on a two speed so its taking off a 17 and upto a 21 lol! Then it motors, Quite unreliable though the two speed is but he's had it on for years km I believe aswell! But gears are gears and iv noteist a difference in gears, Iv got a black bone spur and a vertigo pinion and the BB spur is eating the vertigo spur lol,! Itll still last a bit longer, What tyre you finding are good on the 4x4? Obviously all for needs to be the same with having 4 wheels doing the driving, I'm sticking with 2wd but we'll done matey for making the swap and sticking with it!
  5. Iv just bought the new phatdads drive shafts so id say yep my drive train is sorted! Im on stock km dog bones and they was holding up and it broke one! Snapped it like a carrot, i was landing on the throttle though so my folt, I got a spare off a mate and its on ready to go! But when the phat dad's get here there going straight on, and im gunner put even thicker oil in the diff, its got 60,000w oil in now witch is good and it locks the diff up nicly when the weight is pulling on it! But id like to get as close to a diff locker as I can then its still got a bit of give in it, so its not totally solid! You'll not need to super charge a reed pal, its difficult as is to keep under control, its rapid as hell in a 5b, and iv got all the lightened spur carrier and BB spur, vertigo bell running it in a tr inclosed clutch bell carrier and its mint, Runs nice and true, compared to the stock bell and carrier lol! They was crazy out of line lol! Wobbled around more than jelly lol, But its all coming together nicly now, its a case of choosing the right gearing for it now, its currently running a 18 56 but its just screaming out and I think its crying out for a 21 pinion and im going for the 4mm wide losi pinion it'll work with the BB spur alot better, there the same width
  6. Sound pal now iv managed to stop it leaking lol, it wa only the reed block that was leaking and iv got a new 990 on it so ready for testing, i had a stock carb on and it just wasn't feeding the reed enough fuel I could tell the difference just firing it up without the clutch on lol! Waiting for a replacment tr inclosed clutch bell carrier from turtleracing.com it should be here in the morning fingers x ill be out!, out ill be! Getting some Grass ripping!,!! Done!
  7. Iv got a obr reed that does that for ya! Lol,
  8. Get a camara on that Heli and get some baja videos done.
  9. You'll probably find the truck version last a lot longer with having somthing wrapped around it, the buggy is wide open same as the km baja is, but upgrade parts stops all that nonsense lol! I love my baja and its coming on nicly iv only had it 6 month and in very happy with how its coming on, cost a bloody fortune,
  10. Iv just got the fan case meshed witch I thought would do it but it still gets in, around the coil, with it being wrapped around the coil its making it miss fire now and again lol! It was quite a bit though not just the odd strand dean gets, with his super duper Baja5b-SS Titaniumrc mesh mod The DJ special Mite be time consuming but it works a treat
  11. Sure is, the mesh is cheaper and the stuffs easyer to work with.
  12. You off the 5th scales Dan? Not seen you on there?
  13. Evening guys, I'm off the road again, lol! Nothing major though lol! Just my clutch bell carrier, the little tab that the brake assembly bolts to, thats snapped off, so im waiting on what to do about it, im just on it now, But apart from that alls good, iv just bought all the phat dad braces, fan brace, chassis brace, behind the tank brace, the lot for it as iv broke the stocker that come on it, all the km stuff is just about gone, iv got kraken front suspension arms now aswell and what a difference they make, the ground clearence is miles more and there loads firmer I could feel the quality there for sure, Ho and I broke a dog bone the other day to, dam! I was praising the km dog bones the other day on how good they was and boom! One let's go, snapped right across the ball that the pin goes through, lol! They've had some stick though ill tell thi, some proper hammer they've had, but i new the reed would sort um out lol! It was just a matter of time lol! And they didn't brake were i thought they would either, I expected the pins to go, but nope, the pins are sound as a pound, and would go for loads longer, So its use the km ones iv got a spare and see were i get ut im selling the yama buggy stuff and its selling ok tbh! Didn't think I'd struggle tbh! Looking at the prices they charge on these sites, lol
  14. You know ya stuff dude don't ya!? Shame it started the way it did, You sound alright, petrol heads are always alright, they just like to make a lot of noise just like the things were talking g about lol!
  15. Haven't they done a upgrade as yet? Make some probably? Is that possible iv not had owt to do with the fg tbh!
  16. Like the cent of it too, it's not eye watering like some when you get an eye full lol! Interesting read mcn I buy it nown and again What 5th scale you running atm!?
  17. Im using rock oil atm and iv used it in the crosses and use putoline In my trails bikes, Strawberry cent, Mmmm it was nice, But the rock oil im using in the 5th scale is doing g its job really well I like it, not a mark on mi piston after the run in and the plugs always good,
  18. Iv got the reed in and its er good with all that smoke, stands still for a minute and its smoking nicly, and I give it the beans and lol, its like a steam train lol! Bellows out lol then clears obviously lol! Nice to see though, hearing a lot a out reeds Lean seizing im keeping g it rich
  19. I did mention that the premix will loose its spark if left mixed to long, I do it on the day, mix the tank as I need it.
  20. O yes, and it was going well till a dog bone let go. mite get the flms kid and run my cups, they do fit in the 22mm cups hay?
