details there squizzmo? where do you buy it and how does one 'hot' them up?

Upgrade your speed controller, battery packs and get a lower turn motor.

I have a Tamiya TB-04 with upgraded diffs aswell as the above.

hmm so i can get one of those off the shelf tamiya kits for $400 or whatever, then just pimp it up and be happy? how much do the extra goodies cost if i wanted something that could pull skids on pavers

Get an off-the-shelf, shaft-driven awd and you can go down to around a 19turn motor on the stock speed controller. Get some 3600mAh battery packs and change to a quicker ratio drive sprocket. If you buy a kit I can assemble it for you. Give me an excuse to re-tune mine. I have a drift/road setup and an off-road truck, and the missus has a an off-road race buggy that shits on both of them... but I'll have the last laugh...

same same, it's sitting in the garden from where i crashed it last time and couldn't be bothered going over to pick it up.. what a wasate of $300

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
