Dead Sexy!

Now, RS are we taking notes? That's how a ride should umm... ride, low n' lean

Lovely :cool:

That looks sweet man! I see you cut off the pop up lights. Did you use the dremel for that?

Hey BC can you show a picture of how you did the tab lowering?

i am normal not a fan for body mods, but i might have to do this one, exept with a lancer body... looks sick(darn it now i will feel stupid when i make fun of the lowered just for looks not for prefomance rice burners) man thats looks awesome, i could go on and on....:D

I actually haven't done the complete tab lowering yet. All I have done is remove the existing tabs. It's such a tight fit, the body actually stays in place with out any tabs. I will add some, but they will have to be really small, something like 1/32". You can see here how tight of a fit it is when you push the chassis up in the body (even without the existing tabs).

Yes, I used a dremel to remove the pop up lights. I went ahead and made a new spoiler. Now to paint this puppy.

DUDE now put them lights on a older body

no doubt about it you make the dumbest cars look the best. you are the best modder period when it comes to looks

Great Job on that savanna i wish i could do somthn like that without destroying it:rolleyes:

bc, i got the lights out but do you no how to get the lights in reg. zip bodys

no offense to bc, but have you seen sinned's work? he just doesnt mod bodies, he makes them look like completly different cars.... its amazing. I really like this mod, it one of the best modded bodys that still looks like the source body :p

Also i think that you new sn bc is better, when i first saw your old one i was thinking that you were a person that wasnt much help to the board, except to flame people.... boy have you proved me wrong...... i am still figureing out who this is helpful...... lets see another wheel mod :D if i didnt mess up the steering every time i opened it i might be willing to do this....

i got the lights on the eclipse
 

the front lights

heres the back

Nice job racemini89!

I have seen sinned's work, and I can't even come close to touching him, only his fellow Germans could.

I have never been the type of person to flame or disrespect anyone, that was just a name I choose a long time ago because I thought it was funny and I have used it for mostly everything I can get away with it.

I see that now... i when i saw on of your wheel mods i was like :eek: and you kept on coming with them.... and with hind sight i wonder why i even posted that thing about sinned, oh well what done is done.....

Awesome Racemini looks good, i cant wait till i get mine

Well, thanks for the compliments! Sinned is talented for sure. I only do simple body mods. I don't have the patience to do what he does. As for wheel mods. I 've kinda run out of new ones, until they release some new diecasts at least. I've been thinking about doing my own custom ones though.

:eek: :eek: :eek:
That's amazing! It looks factory...the sexy kind! good job! Can't wait for paint/wheels...if ya got plans..

Does it look like there would be room for a Li-Poly setup in the SE?

EDIT: i'm also not feelin' the way the headlights turn on and off when you stop and go...might just be me though.

Exellent work BadCompany, Exellent work!! I had an Idea though, what if you left the headlights (still in down position) empty, and put clear lenses over them, then you could rig up some sort of space saving led system, and have headlights through the clear lenses. I dont get what I'm saying so heres a picture to show you what I mean. This is what I plan on doing to my BCG RX-7 body. \/

I actually thought about doing that exact same thing with the existing LED's I removed, but I want to stick them in another body. It may be something I do in the future though.

You will have to move the LED PCB to the rear of the car above the motor and add some wire to the front LED's. You also may not be able to lower the Savanna body as low because the plug for the lights sits right in the front windshield.

i find no need to mod mine

i do i personally need to get that shiat 2.4v battery out and put in 2 seperate 1.2v 200mah cells and have some genius do a max torque mod

i find there is enough speed in mine withe performance motor that comes stock with them

oh hell no! even with a 4.2 its pretty slow of the line........

Thats what i heard from bad company. The speed with teh 4.2 is similar to the 28k, but torque is worse :confused:

Hey airline2,

Hows about posting some kind of content? Your posts litter this board that add little or nothing to the discussion. Nice work BC, your posts and faqs on the SE led me to get one and I love it.

I use the 3.4 motor from my Nascar Motorworks (aka ZZ NX) and it goes plenty faster than a 4.2, but in a MS its a different story. Also, I did not get any "lack of torque", on the contrary, the 3.4 beat my friends brand new MotorWorks in a "torque test" (the cars are put nose to nose and you see which car pushes the other to find which has more torque). The only mod I find nessesary is a body kit.

Agreed. Makes it quite difficult to wade through the board to find posts that actually have content -:(

i see (or at least i think i see) that you dremeled away those lines on the body that were from like bad molding or something. I havent touched the dremel or the airbrush for a month or so :(. anyways, great job, power to ya

Actually, I just used sandpaper for the molding lines. I used the dremel to remove the pop up lights and the tabs holding the light system under the body.

Anybody try to get the black goo off yet?

In another post a saw a picture with most of the black stuff scratched off.

Got a link...because I saw the picture of the bottom of the board but not the top...

I dont remember what post i saw it in, but i did see a picture of the top scraped off.

did anyone even try to use heat?

What is the deal with the controller?
Why have they switched they left/right to the left!
Does anyone know if you could get these in NZ? How much do they cost!?

hey BC, hows the Savana coming along? do you have any more pictures?

I haven't been able to do anything here because of the hurricane. I will hopefully get back on this weekend.

Yeaah, we got some of the hurricane too, power's been going out and coming on every 6 hours or so.

BC,

can you show us how you do SE tab lowering?

You can use this, but you will have to make adjustments for the new front tab. I haven't had a chance to correct the tutorial for the new SE front tab.
