Talking my guts...

LRP BL 15.5 Vector combo
Airtronics 2.4 rec
Hot Racing front and back hubs and axle shafts
Hot Racing alum shocks
HPI rims and tires.

Waiting for the brake calipers and some drifting tires, just to have some versatility....

On the Hpi site it says you can use a multitude of bodies. Does anyone know where and what bodies there are?

its made to fit ANY mini body currently on the market - from the Cup Racer bodies by HPI, to the old HPI Mini bodies, to Tamiya M-Chassis bodies, to the ABC Genetic bodies...

if you want an exact list, just visit Tamiya's site and ABC Hobby's site - you'll see them there

but for HPI - it will fit the following:
Datsun 510
Datsun 240z
Toyota Levin
Mazda Miata
Honda Civic
Cooper
Soon to be released Porsche 911(or 944 - forget which)

that help?

Thanks!!! And yes my car now has a front bumper so the only difference is the color and the flares.

My local hobby store didn't have a very good color selection. Anyone know where I can get an orange closer to my real car?

BTW, I have set this suspension up for drifting as much as I could imagine for a real car. Should I get harder tires as well?
