I've seen this mod. Except u r the first one with dual cell.

So what material did u use to extend the chassis? Plastic? Aluminium?

The thing i used to extend works great, I used to cut up spare chassis's and use them, but this time cause the pcb was on the bottom, I just used an upsidedown pcb cover cut to the right size, it works perfect!

Benn a while since I busted out my bits... work kinda took over for a while
here is the new one (right)

I am working on a method of "hot-swappable" single, dual, or tripple cells without chassis modification... if my plan works i should be able to switch between in seconds!

Note: the chassis on the right has been shaved of every solid edge and is silky smooth top and bottom (still working on the rear end a bit, but front is all done and smoothed) just for fun !

Very well done indeed. I like the pcb on the bottom. It's one of the cleanest I have seen in a while. What are you gonna use for a body?

Note: If you look closely you will see the Dash installed

Sorry double post, i know....
heh i figured i would get more feedback on this thread than I did... but meh...

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 :p

If you want a Full Size pic, go to: http://members.shaw.ca/blinnstudios/SkylineR34.jpg

I was thinkin of entering it into the Christmas Contest... but wasnt sure if I would even stand a chance.... You guys think if I got it some new rims I would stand a decent chance?
