What HPI is it?

Post by cautiousone » Sun Mar 31, 2013 10:16 pm

So I found a milk crate full of RC cars this weekend. This is one of them, but I'm not sure what it is? Any help would be grateful and thank you in advance for any info.

RC10talk.com is like a bad accident, I just can't stop looking at it...

Good luck finding a body for it - 300 mm wheelbase, IIRC.

They're actually 280 or 300mm wheelbase. You can flop the rear arms to adjust the wheelbase. Uses the same bodies as the Kyosho Superten. Team blue groove makes several for them.

I'll second the Super nitro RS4 Identification. I always thought these were a better and more stable platforms for those high horsepower .15 power plants

Does anyone know if these are HPI #6207 Universals for the RC10T and RC10GT? The instruction sheet doesn’t have a part number on it.

Last post

Yes they are. They are actually a higher quality universal then the AE part.

Here's something I built from some parts last weekend:

- HPI chassis, front brace, and upper pod plate.
- Composite Craft lower pod plate.
- Unknown manufacturer left clamping hub and lightened right hub, servo...

I also think of making a HPI 10L if I find a chassis, I have some other HPI parts already.

But I think at your car you should take away the bumper, this HPI chassis looks much better without.
You hide maybe the best looking area of the chassis...

Original RS-4, picked up for about 35 bucks, in great condition, came with dual ball diffs, full ball bearings, alloy shocks, universals, etc., with some vintage and modern options added:

- HPI 15T one-way pulley
- Speed Max alloy front lower hinge...

Last post

didn't the original rs4 have a rear gearbox?

As I wrote in the opening post, this one has a special 2-belt conversion set for the original RS-4. This belt conversion set won't work with the later versions of the car because it uses user-modified...

Do not know if this is old news for you guys, but teambluegroove has a repo HB HPI Viper body for RC10B2 on the bay now.
I think i will add one to my B2.

Last post

Unpainted, but cut to fit.
A bit hard to tell the lines of the body.

This is a new never run car. The body I have set aside for is the HPI Nissan 350Z Nismo.

I bought one of these cars new back in '96. It was my first entry into on-road or 4wd for that matter. I ordered it from Tower at the beginning of my first...

I do as well like the older HPI onroads. Nice Pro you got there! I have a RS4 3 RTR and a Sprint 2 Flux. I wonder if any parts are interchangeable with the Sprints and the Pro's?
