are we ever going to see that new bodyshell masterpiece you've been brewing over there in J Land???????

Got my new shells back from the paint shop tonight

I like them too, all painted, no stickers I just wish I could do that

Nice I like green headlights Maybe would have had a colour on the rear instead of white, but still very nice, I like the R2 on the front

I think Dave's lost the ability to use a digital camera either that or he's busy working
HEHE, just in the middle of searching for an old picture in this thread when I came across these couple of posts (from 10-24-2003) , feels like deja vou

Here is a pic of my Cuda with the fan on it. Oh by the way I don't have that front plastic cover on the diff case anymore. I just took it off and used some nice blue 1mm spacers since I don't have the short steering posts on. Might order them but those blue spacers are so small you can't even tell the differance.

How free is the drivetrain on your R3's? Also, just want to make sure I didn't misplace them, I didn't find any droop screws in the kit, and the manual does not call for them either.

Once the gears get broken in it should be supper free. I filed mine down a bit. The Droop screws were not in my kit but if you order the TI screw kit from SPeedTech they are included.

Well I got my new titanium offset pillow balls. I must say they are very nice. I set them up to take out as much toe in as possible and then I have on the Xenon rear hubs on. I checked my toe in now and I have 2 degrees per side which is what I normally run on all my touring cars. Now at least I can add or take away as needed.

not another blue brick I hope
I've used it twice now, boy is it weird driving with it in.
Forces you to be smooth since it's so poor on power, makes great packs of cells feel like 2 year old practise packs lining up on the grid is easier though
