It would of been nice to hear you ralk through the restoration , i have two or three of these of these cars waiting to be restored along with many more cars and trucks , one day i will get to them , I've just finished restoration on two Hpi savage trucks , a 25 and X both 4.6 egines .
I raced these as a younger fellow... made 3mm chassis plates from no parking signs. 6160 aluminium, believe it or not !! Countersunk them. All you did there was a clean-up. Not a resto. I had many GPM parts + Kyosho parts installed, Novarossi .12 motors, and cleaned up all of the slop in the suspension & steering linkages. Also, I ditched the Kyosho fuel tank for OFNA tanks, no primer, and a bronze diffuser at the outlet point. Your front shocks look like they came from an EP 3 electric version too. Pipes were Vantage, or HPI, which went better. The rear belt gets stripped from dummies doing donuts.
Hello. I'm searching for this green foam bumper for years. Was it only on this model? Would you know where I can purchase it or do you have the part number perhaps? Many thanks. RCCLL
Hi! I believe it is Kyosho 39401. Here's a listing I found but it's out of stock: www.hobbydirekt.de/sonstiges/sonstiges/Stossfaenger-Kyosho-39401::146179.html
yoo I'm trying to fix mine up I forget where I bought it from, but the wheels. When I try to move the wheels one is spinning the opposite direction of the other wheel, therefore it won't move. Suggestions??
That sounds like normal open differential operation, where if you spin a wheel forward, then the opposite side wheel spins the other direction. This doesn't actually occur when the car is on the ground and under its own power. Is this what you're seeing, or did I misunderstand your issue?
I have the same car, but I also have the "cooling fan" option and the belt snapped after 20 years. You can't find the belts anywhere and a "new" old fan kit is about 150 U.S.

Yes it is. Quit being a fool. People have been cleaning carbon fiber long before you came on the scene. In case you don't know, carbon fiber is impervious to most liquids. 😢@@Ludo1986

My first hobby grade RC was a GP10. I still have it and plan on buying a used one off eBay to help restore it. Many hours of fun running that old car.
Very nice rebuild👍. My first nitro car was a Superten back in 1998. Great fan off Kyosho.
Awesome Restoration to a badass oldschool car man! You rock! NitroGang !!!!

What cleaner are you spraying these parts with? Want to restore my HPI Racer 2 now….those were the days indeed!

@@back2newrc Thanks so much, lovely, I'll find it :-) Enjoy RC
Can anyone send me the link for a replacement of the Pull Start, mine needs a replacement but I think I ordered the wrong one.
Which engine do you have?
What Grease you use for lubrification?
I use Loctite 234227 moly paste in the gear diffs. You can find it here: amzn.to/3NNFGjv
Can you tell me the name of the motor please ?

I never would by such a kyosho 10-scaler, because of that belt drives...
any one know the factory setting on the carb for this car i

Oh no! I wonder if a large o-ring might work? I haven't seen one of those fan systems in person so I'm not familiar with what was used as a belt.
i specialize in rc restoration
how much is it worth restored?
Used but nice ones like this are between $250-350 and perfect/NIB ones are between $600-800.
La culasse du moteur est bleu normalement sur la World Cup.

Oh my god, poor Mk2 ! Never put carbon fiber in liquid ! And also cleaning the chassis without disassembling all the parts ... Poor car.
Nah man, it's fine.
