RC-ART RX rear damper stay

Picked up the new RC-ART RX damper stay features more shock adjustment & has ball end mounting points for camber link adjustment also its 4mm thick over the original 3.5mm.

Keen to get on track and see the difference.

Adding a little overdose

Picked up some Overdose shock caps for the CE-RX...gotta make it look nice.

Blitz S14 on track

Actually drove my cars properly yesterday for a bit and was very rusty to say the least. Wheel time and setup us very nessisary. Here's a few iPhone pics. I really need a local track to run at.

CE-RX Upgrades Again

Few more upgrades for the crimson lightning
Tail-Slider bumper & D-Like alloy pulleys. The black RC-ART bumper I had was annoying me and red was out of stock so went with TS

Type M Chassis plate upgrade

Got the new RC-ART Type M chassis plate 

2.5mm, Adjustable centre ESC/Servo plate,Adjustable battery mount

See how it runs with thicker chassis tomorrow

CE-RX Update

Stepped up to 1.73 CS on the crimson lightning  so that meant i needed to get a front belt tensioner

Also gonna add a little extra weight around the chassis,i started off with 2 small WUN weights mounted in the rear battery mount holes i will add or remove once i run it. 

Something new in the post for this too......

Lazy Sunday + Carbon Wrap = Little Details

Sitting around tinkering on sunday and ended up putting carbon wrap in a few things

Top of servo

Capacitor on ESC

Also added new red turn buckles to finish it off

                                     

The Zeon got some carbon too

                                   
                                                                 servo mounts
                                   
                                                                   battery holder

                                                                  diffuser ends

The ZEON hasn't been getting much love lately but a friend just got the new MK4 so will be interesting to see how they compare, Might make me a little more interested in it as ive been focusing on the CE-RX so much.

RC-ART roll system

Cool front damper mount setup for CE-RX from RC-ART

CE-RX RX-J Battery Holder

Fitted up my RX-J battery holder it certainly looks nicer than the stock plastic Street Jam one.

Pretty much full tune now not too much more i can do to it hop up wise. I have a few tiny cosmetic things to do when i have some free time.

Carbon rc-art battery holder

Picked up this battery holder for my CE-RX. Will give me a little more room and clean up the look a bit 

OVERDOSE on CE-RX

Fitted some Overdose ball caps to the CE-RX to try clean up some of the play and they look a bit nicer.

The Athlete

The RX7 still isnt finished im making some custom RE Amemiya style side skirts and got side tracked building this crown athlete

i really like how it turned out bit different style of car than i usually build 

Modifying Cheap Parts

I picked up some Cheap R2 R31 rear hubs for the CE-RX.Im not usually a fan of their stuff as its just copies of companies who put time and money to develop quality parts but got these to modify and didn't really matter if I stuff them up.
So all i wanted to do was add more adjustability to the top mount

so drill

then tap

new thread

then touch the top of the tread with the drill to clean up 

done

The aluminium is so soft on this stuff i'll see how it goes,probably upgrade to something better.

Kinda pointless but I like to play around this stuff sometimes. 

Warehouse meet

Pic of the crew from the warehouse

My CE-RX (purple S14) & ZEON (red R34) in the bottom right 

Tail Slider & D' Magic Treats & "finished" CE-RX

Got a little order of parts in from Tail Slider and R'Wing / D'magic

Got the TS ZEON front brace as there are clearance issues with the knuckle tie rod once you run the aftermarket steering wiper these curve the other way to give you a heap more clearance.

And picked up the TS spur holder for no reason other than i like it haha

Got the D'Magic light bucket set for a S14 project

And a wing for my 180SX project

All the re-anodized parts are fitted to the CE-RX now so it's pretty much how i want it now

The red isn't a perfect match but close enough happy with how this servo horn turned out seeing it was Tamiya blue after a de-anodize and polish it came up nice .

Thanks to Ando @ Tetsujin for getting me the parts
