if u look carefully.. they are actually cutout stickers of a window frame.. clear contact with a light spray of black.. take ya time n do it neat :)

eh siq of the blue ones.. im always one to make a scene..
*at the time it was prolly the slowest nitro car @ our local car club meet.. so had to make it look decent :P *

you know, thorpie, the swimmer...fully sick? ahh you missed it

as for the tint, you can also buy tamiya "smoke" same can as the polycarbonate paints, but its comes out as a smoke on the lexcan....presto, but adam's way works cool too :)

Yep can happily say that the ole std tg10 motor with a 2spd was reliable as hell.. went to stanbridges the day before just to get them to help out with a tune *learnt alot*
all day long.. will fill a full tank.. go balls 2 the wall *didnt have much innit* for 5-10 mins.. run it dry.. pull it in.. wait a min or 2.. fill tank bak up and go out for another floggin.
Didnt miss a beat all day long.. musta gone thru bout 3/4 of a litre that day :P

got a question for ya. your air filter seems to be in the opposite direction to which the air will be hitting the car. ie: the air filter is pointing to the rear of the car but the air of course will hit the car from the front as it travels forward.

do you think this is restrictive and could be robbing power?

That particluar air filter is solid on top, like a cup upside down. the air gets it thru the neck.

I dont think "Ram Air" would make as much difference as getting cool air though.

yeh its the tragic std air filter

tried a few different positions.. nothin really makes the slightest difference.. tho the way it is now.. worked best with the std motor..
been meanin to get a decent air filter.. but thats just another of the million other things on the to do list
*shrugs*.. havent had an issue with it.. find it works ok.. and gets decent airflow from under the neck..

It's the same as the filter in my TGM-01 Mad Bison. The truck runs great with it. It can be a pain in the ass to put back together after cleaning it though.

you really dont need to RAM air to any filter on anything. so long as it's cool air, it's all good
