i have an rc nitro car for sale.

4wd/rwd nitro powered remote control car, motor has been ported and it hauls arse

subaru impreza and s15 silvia shells, this thing looks mad and is awesome fun, but i never use it anymore. comes with controller, car, lots of little spares.

asking about $330, cost me more than double.

apart from the port the car is stock, i used to have a 2 speed in it but pissed it off cos it kept munching the gears.

fs-12 engine

bigger muffler

better air filter

bigger fuel lines

running on 15% nitro fuel, it was running on about 30 but i found it ran better on 15, could just have something to do with the port and the mixtures

i'll post up some pics of the car on tuesday. my camera is away.

to be honest ive never tried to do a burnout, but im guessing yes it could, as for smoke, if you had the right sort of tyres on it yes. i havnt used the car much over the last 3 months so its pretty clean and well lubed. here is a pic of everything.the s15 shell is bout 6months old but ive only ever used it on the car once or twice, so its newish.

well you wont be able to start the car with out a glow plug lead, i guess in a way its like an ignitor, you hook the lead up to a 1.5v battery and plug it on top of the motor and pull the recoil.

pretty sure cod it safe,the package gets sent and you pay when it gets to you, or something like that.i'll go into the post office tomorrow and ask.

so do you want to buy it?

dont know about receipts, ive had it for awhile. there isnt much to it really, the car is pretty straight forward, start it learn to drive it and race things.i havnt ran it for a while so it might pay to read the engine instructions and reset all the setting. but thats it.

    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
    • You just gotta be really, really, really clear and decisive with what you want your end product to be. 99% of people who want this conversion aren't "I want to run a 295 front tyre!" so they don't really need the widebody. They just want the OEM body to look a little less dumpy, so bonnet, bar, skirts job done with some camber, stretch, slam. It's when you want that, but then decide to pivot later you get big problems. See also if you're willing to get an all in one fibreglass bar, and you're willing to accept fibreglass problems like cracking the entire item on a driveway, instead of just a piece attached to the bottom, etc etc etc. Decide this all before buyin'.
