The Story So Far...
I bought the SS kit back in November last year. After spending alot of time on AUSRC.COM as a spectator reading about all of your builds and the journeys of you adding all your upgrades, the Stockton trip and lookin at vids on youtube, I decided I MUST buy me a HPI Baja 5B SS!
I aint one to brag about my car too much and this is why I do not have a build up thread of my own. So here we go! Its about bloody time...
I built the car over 3days on the kitchen table as this seems to be the place that everyone else used in their build ups. The build up was a little daunting as I have never ever built anything this size and had next to no RC experience prior to the Baja!
There aint too much that is stock standard on it anymore. Here is a bit of a list of the goodies she runs:
29cc engine.
Lightened flywheel.
V2rear dominator.
Turtle Racing clutch system.
Robinson racing spur gear.
6000rpm clutch.
Triple carbon fibre brake pads.
Iridium Spark plug.
Walbro 813HP carby.
Protecta Alloy skid plate (not in pics).
Outerwears for the Shocks (not in pics).
Outerwears for pullstart.
Outerwears for airfilter.
Phatdad engine brace.
TGN Billet Spark Plug Cover.
DPS Wheel Extenders.
DarkSoul plastic Roof Scoop.
Turtle racing billet rear plate.
Turtle racing billet front plate.
Turtle racing shock towers front and back.
Integy bead lock all round.
RPM suspension arms all round.
Prewired Monster pico switch.
Hostile mini MX's on the rear.
Etc Etc as ya can see from the photos...!
And there is still more stuff to come!
She owes me a hell of alot of CA$H, but I dont care!!! I love this car so much and get so much enjoyment out of it. Even if its broken and I am in the garage fixing it. I want to personally thank AUSRC.COM and all its large scale members for gettin me interested, for all the top blokes that I have met, and takin me on the journey that is modifiying an SS 5B!
What an awesome thread to celebrate 300posts! WOO HOO!!!
