Looks sweet. Enjoy the quick spool of that turbo.

haha, your build pretty much inspired me. i remember reading a while back your suspension set-up having 1 stock rear shock and one kyb AGX, well when i bought this shell i was looking at the rear suspension and its got 2 ground control sleeves with one stock shock and one AGX :S

i would say total investment is well under $5000 including the cage and slicks.

nhra and nopi dont run races anymore. Nopi is bankrupt


Import scene is very slow business are going out of business being sold out daily. Importers are running out of motors. Many known importers no longer deal with performance parts and switched to just replacement parts



Competition hardly. No ability to make a living more like it.



JK made a solid product for cheap that wasnt the problem.

I was unaware of all of that information. However, even in Japan, motors are becoming very scarce. Like I have told several people, you cant just run out and get ---- like I guess it "used to be". Another discussion for another day. Sucks for everyone though. :(
