Just got my first XMODS!

[Osiris19]

Well, after going to two RadioShacks, and then calling about 5 I had to drive about 15 miles to get it. I picked out the 2010 Mustang starter kit. (Was half off, maybe that's why no one had them) Anyways, I was driving it a little and it'll take a little to get used to the driving. Unfortunately, my house is really small and my room is all carpet so I have to throw it on high in order it to be enjoyable. I'll post pics tomorrow. Is there any modifications I can do right from the starter kit without buying anything yet?

Congrats, I knew you'd find one at a local RS. You can try lowering it as your first, "mod". Everyone has their own way. Some the same. Haha, what'd I tell ya? 25 bucks right?

[Osiris19]

Yeah, but seriously, they're originally $50 around here. Any visuall pleasing lowering tutorials?

[Songha]

There's quite a few here. Just use the search bar and you should find some. Me personally. I cut out a piece of plastic to fit for a front clip, really low too& for the rear, I sanded down the part under the rear clip.

[Osiris19]

Ahh. I see. My carpet has dust bunnies all over soigave to take the wheels off and clean it before I drive again.

[Osiris19]

Sorry for the double post, but I took some pictures last night. I didn't get to mod it yet. I have no spare parts.

Nice start man, it's clean. I only have 2 Xmods, 370z and my red Skyline on Evo Chassis. I have two bodies coming in soon and I wanna get me a gen 1. ;D

[Osiris19]

Yeah, messing around with it, breaking it in on my road, the car doesn't want to move anymore. When I lift it off the ground, the motor isn't moving the wheels as fast as before, and when I stikc it to the ground, it stops alltogether. I was on a flat macadam surface and it hit a small bump and did a barrel roll.

Could also be your battery. When my battery near dead it does just that.

[Osiris19]

I just replaced the batteries before I left.

[FloydfanYodaman]

are you useing rechargeables?

[Osiris19]

No. It was the batteries. Weird. Changed 'em and it's all good now. I effed up though when ordering my all wheel drive kit from atomicmods.com. I completely missed the print that said evo TRUCK. So, I basically payed $1.99 for something I can't use.

[Songha]

Haha, I thought so. You should invest in rechargable. I Duracells I got for 10 bucks from Walgreen. ^_^, I'm satisfied w/ this until I get the money to up my stock drifter to a real drifter. WhiteCharisma would be my Xmods drifting role model. LOL! But yeah, should cost too much. $20 for me.

[Osiris19]

Anyway the truck all wheel drive kit can be modify to work in my EVO car? :/

I feel stupid.

[Songha]

I don't think so. I think the size in gears, diffs, and shaft are much bigger than the cars. Although I've never seen a comparison.

[Osiris19]

Dang. I'll have to cancel the order then tomorrow n
