xmod canuck mini z garage
So I finally got an AWD Mini-Z, but I kind of went all out for my first one. And I don't think anyone will be surprised by which body I picked. I was going to get the readyset, but I found a shop where I got the chassis with the multi-offset wheels and the body for less than most places are selling the ready set. So for less money I got the multi-offset wheels as well.
And as soon as it came out of the box, on went the Team Atlas rims. Q & C welcome. |

I noticed that you have wide rims on front and rear, do they rub at all ?
The body looks great, but somethings missing. Not sure what, but something is. Can't wait till you make it POP and me drool. |

Thanks man. I wanted one for a long time before I finally had enough saved up to get it. I can't wait to get my controller so I can take it for a spin. |

I never tried any Mini-Z tires so I have no idea what your talking about ! But holy wide STi, I would have assumed their 0.5W and 1.5W. But ****...
It's hard to explain, you know the feeling where you see something and you go "OMG ! That STi is awsome, how the body curves perfectly and such" Rather then "Wow, nice STi" Hope you understand what I'm trying to jab at. Maybe it's the pictures ? Or I'm just use to seeing them in blue. |

Well there was a bit of a wait, but it was worth it. I can finally take my Z for a spin.
I'm honestly not sure what I'm going to do with this part, but it was such a great price to get the package that I almost bought 2 of them. All paired up and ready for a spin. And let me say after a short spin around the house, I will be getting another one one day. |

I love this car. Where did you get those wheels at? I need something like that for my Z. Also, I'd be interested in purchasing the board if your considering selling. I want to convert my car to 2.4. PM me if your interested and we can hopefully work something out.

B, if you can/want to trace a fet pad ona 2.4 board, I can sell you one I have cheap (bought it cheap to maybe try and fix it, but never ended up trying to).
As far as this AWD, get some drift tires and you're SET.

I wasn't interested in that body, but now I want one... I love the final car with the white rims and blue nuts. Very nice.

I recently got a package with some stuff in it. This was one of the things in the package. It was used, but barely. And it came with some nice extras - bearings, cf t-plate, extra wheels/tires. I bought it off a fellow rc nut who I have bought many items from in the past. Q & C welcome. |

And it's funny that I ended up buying the mr-02 because I bought this from him too thinking that one day I would modify it for a XMODS body. I have to lower it though, it sits way too high. Q & C welcome. |

Well, the GT sat way too high so I cut out the front clip and shaved out about 1mm.
Before. After. I think the previous owner was going to convert this into a XMODS body so the side clips were already cut out so I shaved the ridges they rest on about 5mm. Before. After. The result...mush less wheel well gap and a more level body. Q & C welcome. |

??No love for the GT??
I guess there's a slight difference with how the Z bodies and iwaver bodies mount to the chassis. The stock offset for the GT is 0N and 2W. I figured with the clearance the front was right but that I could go wider in the rear so I got these... And these to fine tune the handling a little. More pics to come. Q & C welcome. |

I've gotten some stuff recently. Some new/used rims. A truck load of tires. Almost 200 bearings for mini-z and xmods!!! And my all time favorite wheels were finally made into alloy versions for the AWD. I bought some before Christmas but they never arrived so I got a refund and the only other places I found with them for sale were more money and the one place that had the bronze wides were twice the price. Well they dropped their prices and matched a competitors price so I got narrow and wide in bronze and silver. They aren't the perfect offset for my current Subaru, but when I get another chassis they will be perfect for my blue WRX. Just a little bit of dish to them. Nice! And some new rims for my GT. I do love the team atlas wheels. And last but not least. Something I've had for a while and I have a good idea of what I'm going to do with it, I just need the material and time to do it. Don't expect anything to be done for a while. Q & C always welcome. Last edited by xmodcanuck; 03-28-2010 at 03:40 PM.. |

I got something free recently. Well, not exactly free, but I traded some stuff I didn't need for something that someone else didn't need. Q & C welcome. |
