Re: Seriously different JRX-Pro
are you allowed to reveal how you aquired this, or will the men in black come to get you?Charlie don't surf wrote:It was manufactured by Team Losi, and was not a production part-


I can't wait to see a NIP MIP car. I've been building up a stash of MIP parts to do the same.

Re: Seriously different JRX-Pro
All I can say is, I have a few close friends that do/did race for Losi BITD and that graced me with this chassis that I will do my best to make the best looking JRX-Pro I can after I finish-aconsola wrote:are you allowed to reveal how you aquired this, or will the men in black come to get you?Charlie don't surf wrote:It was manufactured by Team Losi, and was not a production part-

And like most of my builds, 90% of the parts are from members-

Re: Seriously different JRX-Pro
I think the use of the words "factory prototype" would have made it a bit clearer.

Re: Seriously different JRX-Pro
Looks very nice Reg. What puzzles me a bit is that this one does have a servo saver hole where the very first ones available to the public had none. Could that mean this is a later prototype? Just wondering... So what MIP parts are you thinking of? Yellow tranny, hard-coated shocks, shock cartridges and CVD's? What other MIP parts were made for the JRX series?

I was trying to be subtle, but you are correct-mrlexan wrote: I think the use of the words "factory prototype" would have made it a bit clearer.
As I assume this based on some other parts in the pile date wise- it was produced in the JRX-Pro time line more than the JRX-T, I have only seen the early JRX-T with the non servo saver and servo saver chassis differences but I am no Losi expert-Asso_man! wrote:Looks very nice Reg.

And it will be shocks (not with the MIP cartridges, but an equally cool type ), the MIP bones, and the MIP bell crank steering-
I also have a really cool electronics and motor package that should really set it off......one of my most looked forward to builds

Anyone know the timeline for the gold MIP shock shafts?

Re: Seriously different JRX-Pro
I only know of one other non-losi cartridge. I hope these are them, because if they aren't that means I have something else to try to find.Charlie don't surf wrote:

I've got some pics I'll put in its own thread, but MIP made a lot of stuff for the early losi cars.

That's one less thing to obsess over

Re: Seriously different JRX-Pro
Update since my other pair of shock bodies finally showed up, of course they are the wrong ones- but I guess it will work out-
Some of the aftermarket parts- I had to build one of the correct ( but used ) front shocks- it was too cool for me to wait The stock NIP parts- I have to decide on tires as well, I was planning on the stockers in the front and the X patterns in the rear, but these "other" Losi rears are kinda cool too I guess I'll start building-

Re: Seriously different JRX-Pro
Looking forward to seeing it come together.
Do you prefer the Delrin 0.25" balls to the stock Losi ones? I've been trying to figure out which way to go...
