isnt the sledgehammer the one with the .50/.70 block engine ? if so thay are a Pig to start and use turn up the idle alittle more get it started and try and run 1/2 tank of fuel Turn the top end needle 1/8th of a turn clock wise at atime untill you have good engine top end performance and a nice trail of smoke the engine must not bad off under its own throttle (die) now once you have done that u can tune the Low end Needle turn this in 1/8th atime clockwise untill u have a nice Zingy throttle response once this has been done back both needles of by 1/8th and then u can ajust the idle again so the engine ticks over nice but not engaging the clutch engine must not get to hot normaly u can tuch the top finn of the head for 3>4sec before its to hot to tuch this would be about right 200>250f

most of the cars these days come with performance airfilters .21>.28 ( 3.5cc 4.6cc ) engines Hi torq servos 2.4g Radio systems All fully ball raced Metel Gears Take a look at the latest Design thay have done to the savage x 4.6 you would be looking at £400 for car £15.50 for Batt ( for electric roto starter ) £25 for charger ( fast,mains,12v ) £14.99 for starter pack £16 for 1/2 gal of fuel Extras 2.99 air filter oil 2.99 after run oil 9.99 hump pack Batt (for the car)

some shells are on there the ones i sell most of .. Dont change any of the parts to alloy it doesnt make the car stronger .... just heaver and slower and more expensive to repair if u brake some thing thats alloy .. trust me i been there got the t-shirt .. and seen meny other ppl with there mangled up cars trust me i seen it all salotape,glue,tieraps,wood screws,bits of metel straping stuff togeather seen the after math of cars running them over jumping them to high , runing in to trees that just come out of noware i race on a Pro Level so i kinda get to see it all lol

ok here are the good and the bad points about some cars .. Traxxas 3.3 trucks engine is very finiky to tune T-Max likes to roll over all the time due to high ground clearence Not that strong Front wishbones are very weak Good Points Very fast and handles quite nice Revo has a weak gear box blows the reverse gears all the time both have a stupid Ezy start system that Eats batt life and pack up over time ( depends how it gets abused and used ) Good points fast and has Trick suspention setup HPI Savage Rolls over due to being high Strips spur gears if engine gets knocked ( this goes with other trucks to ) a little lazy in steering but thats a monster truck for you Good Point .. Very very very very strong !! there all with in your budget and have change left over .. if you was to come away from monster trucks and have a think about Truggys or Buggys you could go for Hong Nor CRT x1 truggy big wheels like monster trucks but lower to the ground and would out speed and out manoover any monster truck going Plus its very very strong downside is that the Jumps are not has high due to being lower to the ground but hay if yout thinking of doing 10ft jumps then trucks are good but remember is how u land them buggy is more for Cheap playing and Racing

only nissan 350z & nismo nissan skyline r32 & r34 Nissan skyline GT-R nissan Silvia Thats all

ok yes i sell Universal bodys ( 190mm ) for all tamiya Electric and Nitro the Prices are around £22>28 depending on car body type ok Traxxas is a very good brand but you pay 20% more just for the name compaired to Hobao Hong Nor HPI Ansmann Caster the list goes on the best thing is what do you want to do with the RC and how much do u want to spend ?

ok found it Pin 50 is Ground on the ECU chart Mark Edit Just a Ref for other ppl .. Pin 20 & 4 for the Reverse on the Auto ECU Pin 44 & 50 for the Neutral on the Main ECU

ok and just to confirm pin 44 on main ECU and then Ground as well .. does any one know what pin or colour the ground wire is on the ecu want to try and keep it a little tidy Mark oh and whats the Ajusting pot on the ecu for at the bottem ?

ok got the light to work and the reversing bing ... when i wire hcuk up the wires togeather on the top wing plug .. i was doing the wrong plug ...lol

yes thats great but Jeff at zedworld said i can do it from the Auto ECU loom under passenger side foot well on Pin 20 i carnt get the light to work full stop i know the switch on box works as i have had 12v running tho it as a switch on its own and had bulb/motor working ..

yep i own a model shop ask away

ECU Pin 44 and Auto ECU Pin 20 as i have two wire per switch does one of each get grounded to the body or an earthing point and other say + of the wire go to Pin 44 for N and Pin 20 for Rev Mark

this new stuff added to the MOT Regs was Posted December/Jan so theres only till the end of this year when it becomes afective its not just the bulbs he would need to remove its all the wiring and the Balist,electroincs that go with it i know its a bitch thats why when i converted my other car to HID's i used Projectors as these focus the light beem corectly using the HID in Normal reflectors would have a much larger beem patten hence this is why alot of cars with it Glar/blind you

2011 VOSA changes to MOT Still 13 months away until these new regulations come into force, but some interesting changes. From MOT from December 2011, the below changes will come into force, which will be very bad news for some. HID lights – Specifically those aftermarket kits that give the very bright headlight beams. Any cars found with these kits will be an automatic MOT failure. Testers are able to easily spot the difference between HID kits, and manufacturer fitted Xenon’s. Easy to spot as Xenon cars have suspension level sensors, in car beam adjuster, and usually headlight washers. Chipped ECU’s - Unsure of just how/if this one will realistically be enforced, but any cars with chipped ECU’s will in theory be an MOT failure. I can only assume VOSA have found an easy way of checking ECU software through the cars OBD port (diagnostic plug). Wiring harness – The general condition of he wiring harness will be checked to make sure there is no rubbing or chaffing, and that the harnesses are in generally good condition. If unsecure, or damaged again MOT failure. Airbag warning lights - If any warning lights are illuminated, it will again be an MOT failure. http://www.motester.co.uk/TradeMagaz...alChanges.aspx

just a Tip the new MOT Regs thats out later this year will Fail HID that have been Retro fitted in to normal Light reflectors Factory fitted HID with Projectors are fine i will try and find the MOT info

still not had mine ... has it been sent ?

the Vac side and Solinoid is working .. need to Test the FPR unit its self as when u blow in to the main (In) its blocked or Shut .. if u apply vac ( suction ) it still doesnt open to alow fuel tho i have two doing the same thing come across this and its saying the FPR should be fully open http://zhome.com/ZCMnL/PICS/hesitation/hesitation.html

I have two here that was making my car not start .. the outlet one works fine i think .. but the main Inlet one i can not blow thou it or even if i apply alot of Sucking to it.. it still remains Closed ( blocked ) and this is stoping Fuel getting to the injectors How do you Test them Mark

you need to undo the other bolts holding the control unit on the Left side of the idle unit this will alow u to removed the unit u need

on the auto plugs .. on wing does any one know what the pin's are for Neutral as the auto box used this in the loom and had the neutral conections Mark

Ok.. will leave it at that Rant over Mark

i stand by what i said ... post's was done at the same time i dont keep posting it and plan not to
