No, heh that RSX has long since been retired... that chassis was a terribly design, I have long since perfected my technique.. I will post up pics of my latest chassis in a day or so. I shaved the WHOLE thine, so every single line is curved and smooth
I will never mod a chassis with walls again.....
I am also working on a battery pack system, that will allow me to swap between single, dual or tripple cell in seconds

check this out, I recently did this. I took a clone chassis, and
I cut it in half, and then i used some scrap plastic and plastic cement
to fill in the gap once i extended it to the desired length, then i melted
all the plastic togetherto make sure it was strong, then i modified the
tabs, to fit a ZZ body...i thought it was pretty cool.

My school has a CAD club, where you can build anything you want. I am starting a streched clone with as many batteries as I can fit. My question is, should I use balsa wood, or plexiglass, or lexan for the streched segment, and what to use for a body?

Hey, i extended my clone chassis about the same time i knew about this forum...once i looked at some other designs, i realized, why the hell did i leave walls on the side?? it's just extra weight, and a pain in the a$$ to work around, (i dunno if we can swear on here or not) so i cut the walls out, and noticed it was a bit flimsy, cause it had two seams along the bottom, where i extended it, so i added some tiny walls, to strengthen it a bit...so here it is, and i'm still looking on some input, for a dual cell mod, and maybe some others, i work on my PCB so mods that include soldering are welcome, thanks

I have grown very proud of the job I have done to this Skyline... Everytime I see it, it manages to look better and better....
The rims are my main pet peve right now, but I went a step further on the underbody to make it fit and hold really good, like it was made like this
If you want a Full Size pic, go to: http://members.shaw.ca/blinnstudios/SkylineR34.jpg
Hope yall like it.... please post coments and such if you have them....

could you just extend a chassis by adding a spacer between the motor well and the rest of the chassis? I wanna do that.
btw dont drink and solder
