Here's a teaser pic til I get the rest uploaded haha. not having a facebook account anymore kinda kills my uploaded pictures I'm noticing. Also don't hate that it's an S13. I had an ae86 body, but my friends kid is cool as shit and was BEGGING his mom to get an RC car that's like my "red" one haha. I had a complete HPI E10 as well.... so for his birthday I gave it to him with the red AE86 body. haha

Thanks Dr. Occa! Have you ever ordered from them before? I always get a little sketched out when places are based in China...

On with some MOAR PICS! should we make this non 56k? hahaha does anyone even still use dail up?

Parts and stuff.

I started with the E10 electronics in the HPI ProD Chassis and then upgraded over time.

HPI ProD The chassis came with all the carbon lookin pretties and the aluminum parts nothing was upgraded just out of the box.
Novak Slydr 7.5 brushless motor and ESC
2 Yeah Racing 3200 mAh LiPo batteries
Spektrum DX3r radio transmitter/receiver
JRracing 9100 Steering Servo
few sets of wheels/tires (i still have a set of rubber-ish ones that grip drift like a mofo)
Yokomo S13 body pro drift spec stuff hahaha
LiPo protective charging pouch thingy (in case it blows up since LiPo's are sensative)
Hyperion EOS 0606i battery charger it's pretty sweet as it charges all sorts of different batteries NiCd LiPo etc etc
Hyperion LiPo battery balance adapter
50A 110v to 12v inverter awesomeness!
Usual connectors/fans/etc etc etc

Unfortunately I have too many expensive hobbies so I didn't want to add another one to that list. There are some other sites a few of the other members recommended which you may want to check out.

I like the white hatch kit. Too bad they don't have a Levin coupe cover thought I'm sure someone could modify a Trueno kit to look like one.

yeah. I used to play with mine all the time up until I broke parts... :( I placed an order last thursday with r2hobbies. Ordered the new front diff couplers, and the lower suspension arm... it's still has the status labeled as "packing"... starting to think I may be out of luck... or out 21 dollars lol.

EDIT: Woot it finally shipped!!! 7-14 day wait now... bleh... there's going to be all sorts of snow on the ground before I can slide around 1/10th scale style
