Default R34 Skyline

Electric TC3
Alloy oil filled shocks
F/R stabilizer bars
Deans connectors
Power connectors
Runner ESC
VSPEC 19T motor w/heatsink
3400mAh 7.2v Venom battery
Venom (VSM) speed monitor
V-rage tires
Mesh wheels






Just started working on this one, Had to install swaybars, alloy shocks and then prep this body, its still not done and needs trimming and a spoiler but was anxious to post this.
Still have to paint the wheels (mesh part) black & the spoiler as mentioned then its off to the track.

Torredo, they might've ripped you off.
This whole deal with you getting your car from Japan blah blah and the parts...the guy might've scammed you...seems VERY fishy to me...I hope you get your car how you want it

1:10 Skyline roll call!

Sorry Torredo, hope you don't mind me posting this up!
Tamiya body, was supposed to be a Pennzoil Nismo GT-R, but just went with a yellow paintjob. On a TA04-PRO chassis.



Hope your R32 gets done fast. Call up TSS and tell 'em to git-r-done

Opph. Torredo, do yourself the favor and lose the Venom battery. I have the same one and hate the darn thing. Horrible discharge and runtimes.

Looks nice; love the blue color.

No reason to call the BBB (Better Business Bureau for those who don't know). TSS is a very reputable place, its just this instance where a confusion or some form of business and unorganized matter has come up which delayed his car.

I have no expierence with them, but from stuff I've read, they are respectable(sometimes better) for 1/10 scale and are quite durable and sturdy. I think you can get them in the $200-400 range...correct me if I'm wrong.

For beginners....

I traded my brand new 06 Civic for this Skyline with approx 10k in parts/labour on top as per the contract.

This was done on DEC12/07,
This is the 21st century!
Cell phones, Internet, etc...
He refuses to update me, contact me, etc....

I will not except this as a form of miscommunication but rather avoiding the situation..

I deal with BBB as a warning to start....
If this does not kick him in the rump....Lawyers i go and Case# he gets!!

PS:
For those of you that arent following....
