lol I've only a HPi Bullet Flux... just for messing about with. running only on 2s Lipo's.
Its fun, but get sick of ordering parts from ModelSport every Time I break something. I carbon Wrapped a whole body the other week... very badly I might add lol
I think doing a whole body in one sheet was asking a bit much lol.

Thought I might ask a few questions. Some of you may recognise this Hatch
I bought it last year off Dave P on here. At the time it had deted & needed an engine re-build. So now it's fully forged with all the best bits from Lateral, Mahl, Cosworth & the like.Ive only just finished running it in & I had its 1st map last week. It's not making huge power at 320bhp as its till running std cat,air box & so on. My concern is the way it feels at speed. I don't like it,VAGUE is the word & scary is another. I've made a few mods to try & improve the feel Tein springs have helped. The rack has been poly bushed & now I'm playing about with tyre pressures. Any help would be fantastic.

LOL! what car have you come from? i had a cliosport 200 with cup suspension... then to the hatch... never felt such a change in handling! the barge like feel of the subaru was so suprising! 32k when new, pedigree sports car and it cant go round the corner without banking like a battleship! :P i've got used to it now though :P
Totally changes the drive and ride into something decent.

I've got a question about my down pipe. I've got a cobrasport sports catted downpipe and a prodrive cat back exhaust. If I'm right the down pipe replaces both cats on the car with just a singe built in sports cat. Technically doesn't that now mean that the car won't pass an mot as one of the cats is missing- even if emissions are fine?

Lol I did that on the Mazda 3 mps I had previously but a day or two before it was booked in the place lost its licence for just that which at the time left me without any friendly tester! I'm sure most places might just pass over it or not even notice hopefully

Cheers Don, removing rear glass could be a complication I was not expecting, just have a new silver strip to put on as the current is a little deformed and the dealer I got the car from is posting me a new one up, will have a look and see if it looks like i can give it a go with glass in place.
Cheers
