They go for about $245US on RC-Mushroom, or you could go for a Murnan modified one :sneaky:

I was thinking the same thing about the STI logo. At first I thought it was mere coincidence but then the Subaru STI logo is exactly the same design.

Yeah, I'm wondering about that too :sneaky:
By the way, from where did you get that picture?

After 7 gallons on my first Sirio Kanai 1, it finally gave out. Only regret about it is that it happened during the A main of the 2006 Nitro Explosion in Dallas Texas at Speed Racers Hobby. Do have to say, till it went it was running only at 230 and screaming.

Due to bad picture and a better one take and posted below, I removed this image.

Dude i have never seen a conrod rod or piston that colour. What oil are you using and what % oil?

The conrod is actually has a goldish color, it actually wipes off, the light I used is bad where I took the picture, that is why it looks spotted(looking straight on it only has a slight gold tint). For the piston and the dark area, the piston is slightly burnt only at the exhaust port area of the piston from the original sirio pipe I had with the plastic coupling piece that leaked and cause cool air to hit the piston while at TDC during the run. The fuel I run has 8% oil in it, not sure which oil is used but it is very good quality in my opinion.

Keep in mind, 7 gallons out of a motor while I rarely used after run oil, right after breaking it in it reached 300 twice due to lack of experience tuning nitro engines, and I have only went through I think a total of 5 plugs in it.

I suppose after i convert it from gallons back to litres then yes it is a fair bit. Looks almost black in the pics.

yea, 7 gallons = 26.5 liters. The picture doesn't really show the true color. The picture I took of it with good light looked as if was light mirrored back at the camera. Here is a more accurate photo of how it looks, took me a while to get the light right.

Any specs on the new sirio.?

tunnelhead 03-03-2006 09:52 PM

need some help from you guys. About a year ago I bought a Sirio Kani EVO 2 motor .21 I havent found much info on it. I was looking for breakin precedures and needle settings, glow plug. Using non turbo head button. Is it worth switching to the turbo style plugs? What Fuel would you recommend? I really like White lightening. BUT I think 8% oil is not enough. More like 12%?I live on the central coast of Cali

I know this is asking alot but I greatly appreciate it! Phil

Nova Carb on Evo 3
 
Have any of you guys tried using a Novarossi Carb on a Sirio Evo 3? Im having a few problems trying to get the Sirio Carb to fit and function cerrectly in my MTX4. It's a very tight fit. I've had to dremel a little from the carby under the midrange needle so not to touch the brake disc and also, the slide hits either the top deck or the fuel tank when the throttle is at around 3/4 open. Also, the rubber boot on the slide gets caught on the topdeck when i open the throttle :flaming: :flaming: :flaming: :cry: :cry: :cry:
