Minty XX! Decided to join the double X club!

Post by AndrewSi »

My minty XX to go along my minty XXT I got a couple weeks ago! Added the trinity purple screw set and the trinity kinwald blue flake front shock tower today! Now to hunt down these blue parts everyone seems to be talking about! haha So far the XX has the old style alloy MIP CVDs, MIP lite drives, Carbide diff balls, RCPS titanium turnbuckles, HG diff nut, Factory works true spin spacers, trinity purple screws, trinity kinwald shock tower, dual slipper, and full ball bearings. I kinda want to go full graphite, and then of course find the blue stuff.

Welcome to the XX club, I have a set of those diamond front tyres also, not sure which surface they are suited to though, anyone know? I thought Tarmac?

There's a UK eBay seller that still has some of those Diamond Waffle front tyres left (now @ £4.99) so I'm assuming that this is where you got yours...? It's where mine came from!

I would agree and say that they were aimed at tarmac..... or carpet.... as I can't see them of being any use elsewhere.

Cool! Is it painted and stickered? Having the original box is a nice touch. I have mine but it's getting a little fragile these days......afterall it is nearly 22 years old!

The body is painted(basic two tone paint job), wing is not. Yea, ive realized that parts for these cars are scarce compared to associated stuff.
