^^^^ nice car! :D thats what i planned on doing with those black chrome wheels in my pictures, have the pvc stick out. i may get them tamiya 2 piece wheels tho they are pretty sexy.

i found pics of my other drifter, its a HPI rally with the shocks from my pro3 on it. box stock set-up and it was an AMAZING drifter...

Good driving !!!!

That last pic, it almost looks like a real car

I use to build Monster Trucks way back when, expensive but fun hobby.

Nicely Done !!!

 

Sorry to bump such an old thread, but I thought this would be better than a brand new R/C thread. I just ran my HPI RS4/3 Evo for the first time in a year the other day and got all excited about it again. Does anyone know what happened to www.hpi-forums.com? It used to be an amazingly useful board and now it's dead... I'm actually really sad for some reason.

Any ideas?

 

it turned into a faq-forum and ended up sucking bigtime.

i visit drifting forums:

Yo D, we gotta run once Zach fixes my HPI Nitro RS3 this week. It just got setup for full drift. Im waiting on a new clutch now cause the one that was in there is shot...

 

I'm completely stripping down and rebuilding my car to get it in perfect shape for the summer. Can anyone give me a crash-course in setting my RS4-3 Evo up for drift? Will I be sending my T-15 to an early grave drifting about?

I'm tempted to just go with the PVC on the wheels, but I'm wondering what else I need to consider without spending money on the Stage D kit, etc.

 

what paint/process to yall use on your car bodies?

 

i have an electric team associates rc10t4 and for some reasn, when i hook up the battery and go on the throttle, it is not constant. this was the same thing that happned to my old r/c (traxxas bandit) and thats y i bought this one and now the same thing. any ideas?

 

My rebuild is taking shape... I stripped out a few screws getting things apart, so I went ahead and invested in a full stainless-steel, allen-head set for the entire car, as well as new fuel lines, an inline fuel filter, and a new exhaust gaskets since I destroyed the stock one.

Has anyone here ever torn down the T-15? The piston isn't too enthusiastic about coming off of the crankshaft, should I just yank harder?
