Well, the other 40%: Metal bearings, bodykits, new steering wheel, FETs, crystals, lights, etc.

What's this RS volunteering you keep talking about?

Joey · #6 03-02-2004, 09:02 PM

I don't know what I'm talking about, so don't expect me to be able to derive little parts and modifications just by looking at something. All I can tell is that you've got the Civic wheels, and possibly the chassis (though I can't imagine why you'd want either) and soldered a capacitor onto the motor. I really have nothing to say about it.

Allright....Here is an explanation.

I have the Civic wheels on there, alright, because I was too lazy to change them to fit a Skyline outlook. Also, yes it is the Civic chassis. I didn't solder diddly squat to the motor, the wires just kept falling off from being bent and moved so much (the wires they chose isn't the best in the world...solid, yes, but they snap like a twig in some cases).

Nothing to say.....you don't want to acknowledge how tough it was for me to post pics and brag? nah, jk

Well.....your opinion is yours, I can't change that.

Heh, forgot to explain.....

I wanted to get a job there, part time, and clean the place. But, they said policies said you had to be 17 to stock shelves, 18 or older to run the cash register. But, my mom got an idea and asked them a few times if I could just volunteer there, meaning I could be a part time employee, but I wouldn't get paid...the work there would be to support them and for fun. Besides, I'm their fav RC car customer, and they like my knowledge of electronics.
