This is a spin off of the "Black Friday Special on G35 XMOD Remote Control car" thread. No, these kits aren't on my street drivable G35, they are from my XMODS G35 Evolution Series RC car. They are really cool looking in person, not metal or anything, but hard plastic that can be painted. They run on 4 AAA (recharge set available) batteries, and move pretty fast stock or with the Stage 2 motor upgrade. Below are the following specs, and various pics. I took before pics to compare to when I eventually decide to paint it all black.

A bit pricey, sure, but fun as hell.

The cat doesn't come with the car. I had to stop taking pics around this point cause she started to eat the car, which is not good for the paint.

I know some more of you guys bought these, so post up pics, especially if you have repainted or done any other mods.

 

Cool!

 

i have a skyline r34 xmods version from last christmas, but i havent played with it in forever. it just sits ontop of my monitor for decoration, sure was fun and fast though. when i first got it, i bought the all wheel drive conversoin, and stage 2 motor.

 

Was that really necessary? Not only was that rude, but what I do with my spare time should not concern you, sir. Take your own advice.

 

all you need now is coilovers, and a system.

 

Thats Cool. I been thinking of getting one.

 

Does the suspention kit really make any difference in handeling? and do your wheels have tons of play in them? like mine move all around.

 

Actually it does, it even drops the car (softer springs) a bit. They include 4 different tie rod's to choose from to adjust your handling, and 3 different types of springs (soft, medium, stift). It really corners nicely, and handles good at higher speeds, you would be surprised at how fast it really is. Next thing I need is the metal bearings kit.

I would suggest to tighten the wheel lug nuts a bit, or maybe your dampers are loose? It's easy to take these apart to troubleshoot problems.

05GCOUPE6MT, Thanks, they are pretty cool.

 

hehehe, that's pretty cool.

 

+1 in a big way...


Life...that thing that comes in between hallucinations and death...

 

There are always some a$$holes on these boards.

 

Ya DiamondG350GT, here we go again with the teenage mentality crowd, and the stupid comments. You know what's even more funny, mommy and daddy will probably buy them one of these like they did the car they are driving now.

It's very simple, if you aren't interested in this thread, simply click on the BACK button.

 

lugs are tight. Everything is tight. Its almost like the bearing is too small and lets the piece the lug goes on to move around.

 

Did you try taking out the wheel spacers?
