Re: Associated's '89 Stealth car (RC10GX)

About those hard anodized shock caps on the -89 Stealth.. It's not going to happen for my part so I'll go for the next best thing. Enamel paint! With that said I'm partially color blind so don't ask me for the color blending. I've been at it for the past week :twisted: but I have used the following:...

Re: Associated's '89 Stealth car (RC10GX)

Can you show how the back of the body is cut out for the rear mount thanks Hi Hugger19 Masami cut his body just aft of the rear shock tower as he didn't use the rear budy post. He used velcro on the sides. The pictures of Masami Hirosakas car in the Associated book don't do justice as the car has b...

Re: Associated's '89 Stealth car (RC10GX)

Okay.. this shows what color scheme I’m going for..
NOTE! Do not mix Faskolor and Tamiya’s PS rattle can paint. Faskolor do not like it at all!
I got my work cut out trying to fix the body.

Re: Associated's '89 Stealth car (RC10GX)

Here’s something I noticed when cutting the styrene battery hold down. As Masami removed the bottom of the battery cups he probably had to grind down the height of the cups so that the battery cells would have a snug fit….. well that is my theory. Compare pics and look at height of the 4-40 socket h...

GP3D 1989 Worlds Stealth Car Replica

So, I've been gifted one these kits by a good dude for helping him out by storing stuff the last 6-7 months or so.

Re: GP3D 1989 Worlds Stealth Car Replica

The 131S was replaced by the 131SH in 1986 and was made obsolete in in 1987 with the release of the S148 which is a budget servo with very similar specs. THE 131sh had a long life even being re-badged as the 9401. The 131S and the 131SH are identical on the exterior, well except for the sticker. :w...
