Hachi! I love it dude, really do. Crazy stylin is always nice too see every now and then. I may agree w/ the idea of a mesh grill, but moreso know that whatever you do will be slammin.

As for the Nutzo Riced out cars... hmmm, I may need to do that to a micro, just for fun ya know? And not do it up crappy like a lot of kids do, but moreso like some of the "better" cars in that thread.

I was thinkin about a mesh grill too. I like that idea. I've only done the staple grill though. Has anybody done a scratch mesh grill?

Hey Pimp! Suggestion:
Run down to the Dollar Store and pick up a strainer or splatter screen, can't beat a buck..... 8-)

Sorry for the wait on this one. I've been doing some traveling. I've been to Vegas and I went to visit my parents in NC.

I've also been having a little trouble with getting the wheels right. After much struggle though, the wheels are what they are. They look OK, but I was hoping for better. I was trying to make the front wheels slimmer so I wouldn't have to cut up the wheel wells. But the dremmel worked faster than I thought it would on the alloy. So, I had to take both front wheels down to the same width or it would look funny. I'm contemplating ordering some more to get it right, but I'm not sure it's worth the $15 + s/h.

Anyhow, runs great! This turned out to be one of the top performers in my collection. Keeps straight, even with all the power. I got the body kit down as close the the ground as I could possibly get it without scraping the deck. I like the results of that.

I still want to add decals and a grill of some sort. I don't want to put on too many decals as simple is probably better for this car. Almost finished though.

As you can see, I gave it Hachi's Dirty Bird Special; Fets, dual cells, antenna mod, brass axle tube (the bit axle is inside), SS motor and 3.42:1 gearing.

Fuckin A man. I love it... One thing though. (I know, I can't keep my trap shut) The inner dish needs some contrasting paint/color to set off those photo etched hubs (make them bitches pop).. Maybe the same color the car is.. Just a thought. :???:


Nicely done 86 :-o
