Finally found a GT2 Factory Team to complete my GT collection! Almost thought the package got lost because it took a few days longer to arrive and the tracking wasn’t updating anymore… :roll: It’s in decent shape apart from the front left suspension being completely gone. I suspect it was only run o...

Is there a chance you‘ve still got one of those NIP bodies almost fifteen years later?

Really like the design of the GTX and NXT! This is my funky looking GTX! Came from Austria in good condition with some Hop-Ups and unfortunately a seized engine. Cleaned it up and unseized the little HPI Nitro Star. Been looking for an original style GTX body for quite a while now. They seem to be s...

Good guess, but nope

One of the best RC10GT vids out there!
I come back to it every few weeks

Here’s the link. Can’t figure out how to embed it

Got some news regarding the body reproduction!

I‘ve finally got a response from TBG. They apparently have a Pro-XRT body in their inventory and reproductions will be available for purchase around april or may.

It was made by an individual person not a company. Don’t remember his name, but if you google Associated GT5 you can find more info. To my knowledge there wasn’t a whole bunch of chassis sets made and that was a while ago. It took me a while to find a like new one for the shelf. If like new isn’t a...

Luckily no damages

Nice find! Who made this and where can I get one?

Since I’m not very knowledgeable when it comes to vintage electronics I’m hoping some of you can identify the ESC on the Kyosho Pro XRTs box art. Doesn’t seem like anything high performance because there seems to be no heat sink on it. Pretty certain the motor is a Kyosho LeMans Super Pro HF Torque....

Found another package

A head to replace the scratched one on my RC10GT FT. Never thought I’d find one of these…

Ok thanks! So it basically means it's a 10 Turn double. It just threw me off that all the other ones I’ve seen were denoted by letters.

Got some cool stuff today!
Cheapest part was 20 cents, the most expensive 40 bucks

I know this isn’t the right thread to ask questions but can someone give me a quick heads up what makes this Reedy Sonic a “?“ because I don’t get it.
Would it be worth keeping in the package?

Cut out a JC body for a RC10GT I‘m working on! Couldn’t decide on how to make the cutout for the head. Seems like it will always look kind of odd… Also haven’t quite settled on a paint scheme but I‘ve got some ideas in mind. I‘ll have plenty of time to make up my mind because I’m still missing some ...

Project update:

Installed the engine and clutch plus a few bits and bobs I‘ve found over time.
And a little hint how I‘m planning to change the layout for better weight distribution and engine cooling.

After my order ships, I'll shoot him an email as well regarding interest in the repo body.

Thanks!
I think it might help if people show them that they are interested in the reproduction of this body.
Last time I was in touch with TBG they always responded within 24h.
Let’s see how this goes…
