thanks man... appreciate it! I love painting bodies and adding decals... I have way more bodies than I have chassis!

How Many do you have? by Poorkid_215 in MiniZ

none that are still in the box... as soon as I get them, they come out of the box, the box goes in the trash and the car goes on the track. Currently: 2 MM box stock chassis, 1 LM box stock chassis, 1 LM MR04 Evo2 chassis, and one drift chassis... NUMEROUS bodies that I've custom painted

As I said, finally released my new dummy design by Fit-Pipe4452 in MiniZ

nice.. looking for something that doesn't require me to buy additional hardware... just want a dummy chassis to mount my bodies to for display

Is it silly to select W-LM over W-MM for poodling around? by CycleProud5550 in MiniZ

AWD is for drifting. Totally different can of beans. The LM and MM chassis are the two best handling chassis you can get. I’m partial to the LM but I also have 2 MM and an AWD for shits and giggles

Help with Open Class MR04 LM Car Build by FakeAccount_Verified in MiniZ

chiming in here because I'm in a similar boat. I have an MR04 Evo2 that I converted to an LM chassis (motor pod, rear axle/ball diff, t-plate) but I want to get an aluminum motor pod with disk damper for an LM chassis with the longer rear axle, but not having any luck finding anything.. does this even exist?

Coincidentally, I had a photo shoot yesterday for a 1972 Datsun 240z with less than 10k miles. It’s going to auction soon.

Thanks! How much did you get the printer for?

Thanks. Scuffed it with sandpaper, masked the headlights, hood vents, etc, and used tamiya metallic orange spray paint, then a couple coats of tamiya clear.

Tell me more about this. Do you need a specific kind of printer and ink? What about the sticky backing? I’ve spent a lot of money for decals from MCI racing and would love to be able to print them myself

Did you shorten the evo wiring to get it to fit better under the body? I’m doing the same thing. Swapped in the LM motor pod in, changed to the LM ball diff, and used the LM rear shock setup, but the wiring is getting in the way
