Default lol's HPI Super Nitro Star RS4

The TT-01 went to a good buddy of mines, and he gave me this guy.

Quick Run Down:

Steel Turnbuckles
Steel? Aluminum? Bushings
0.12 Nitro Star HPI Puny Block engine
Old belts
Custom Tensioners

Engine is unbelievably old, yet it starts in 1 pull when its warm out, maybe 5 when its cold out. Clutch is fine, brakes work, stops in 3 inches from full speed.

Hmm, what body ish this?





Middle Belt Tensioner



Engine drive belt tensioner



No tensioner for this belt. its all loose goose and slips at times.



Puny air filter and exhaust. Its a Single Needle Engine!





Thats it for now.

You don't have to take 2 pics of the .15 sticker to rub it in. Saying it once is enough. :'(

Go clean your air filter and give me your rear diff. NOW.

My 3 of rear diff teeth are chipped. I think I need a new glow plug. It will idle for maybe 10 seconds, shut off. Wants to idle, but then shuts off after.
