Hey whats up

Post by danielsca »

Hey I'm not too new but I just got into the forums. I am in stationed Japan right now waiting to get back to my girlfriend and the mistress (My 69 1600). I already have plans for when I get back. I have a turbo 13B and plans to drop weight. When I got it from my buddy it was pushing about 202 to the wheels.

Five more days until I get back to the States, my engine and tranny is on it's way back. So when I get back I can get started finally.

I couldn't find a vender over here, however I did find a mini r/c car of the roadster. But I was planning on converting to a four link in the rear for a better ride on the California highway so I didn't get too many stock parts. I was strange some of the guys never even seen a roadster. I guess because all my Japanese friends were drifters.... I was almost thinking it would be cool to drift my roadster. Because one of my friends drifted a Datsun Sunny Truck.... I have video and he was good. Sorry for the rant.

I believe the "rant rule" doesn't kick in until the second paragraph. :D
If you have a source for the RC cars, some people here may be very interested.

Man, for $20 count me in for one if it is a decent size! What size are they? I have one that is maybe 1/43 scale and the body for a 1/10 scale size. Something in the middle would be sweet!

Same as posting pics. Upload the video to YouTube, Flikr, Photobucket, etc. and then post the link.
