FMD ... Boys , if this is available now , please tell me how to get 1 .

I claim the Datsun NOW and that chassis looks tough .

I WANT IT NOW

[obzELiTe]

spring 2009, guess thats us of a spring, not ours

[SNPY]

yeah the chassis is okay .. but that datto is hot .. i want to rebuild a 1:1 one of those when i have my own house and garage.

[SuperRoo]

Those are some impressive looking bodies, the original 240Z's kicked arse so that baby has gotta be good.

The wheels look like 260Z wheels though.

[remotebandit]

the more im looking at them the more i want 1 .

Cant wait massive for these

[eichkay]

Interesting chassis... If you want a 240Z now get the ABC hobby's MChassis kit, they are neat little car thats 4wd and the details on the body are far better.

I actually prefer the Celica.... TA Series Celica (http://cgi.ebay.com.au/24018-ABC-1-10-Toyota-Celica-1600GT-Genetic_W0QQitemZ260349714220QQihZ016QQcategoryZ19 167QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262) ...

Might have to get one of the Celica bodies though, picked up a Genetic a while back for about $100 used.... was cheap because it came with a Honda Jizz body... Honda Jazz (http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=65916&sid=154) .

My Xpress MRR2 chassis has the Coupe body on it..... Datsun Sunny Coupe (http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=82767&sid=154) ... not a real big fan of the blue and yellow, though...

If it helps the cause any, I think these rocked up today just after you left.

I didnt get a chance to look because it got busy and I had to leave at 1pm.

Ahhh .. so that's what was in those boxes coming in as I walked out .. looks like a great chassis from what I have seen .. luckily I didn't get a chance to see them today or I may have walked out with one as well o_O

[Nissanmania]

These look like there's an awesome amount of engineering gone into their design. I must resist, I am feeling weaker..........

[remotebandit]

price?

[SuperRoo]

Dont no price yet, as I said I didnt get a chance to even look at the invoice because we were flat out and I had to be out of there at 1 pm.

I no I am letting the home side down and RC cars should be more important than my wife giving birth. :rolleyes:
