Just finished my rebuild of my B4 so I though I would show it off !

Is the shell completely chrome? Hope it doesn't all flake off! I Painted wing up in chrome a long time ago and it all fell off after a few runs! :lol:

I knew about the chrome problems so I got some PS-48 Tamiya Semi Gloss Anodised Silver which is not chrome as such but has a similar effect. I was recommended to use this from a guy on oople who had done Mclaren b4 & B44 shells.
Fingers crossed it's ok tho !

Looks mint that does Tim!
Do you fancy tidying mine up? Stephen Adams marshalled my car at Worksop a fortnight ago, and commented after that it looked well used!

It cost me about 100 notes ! Which is a little crazy but boys and there toys ! You have had your B4 for some time now tho Chris.
I was considering a x6 conversion instead of this but after me and jeff (B4's) beating all the x6's at the club I though again.

nice b4 were did you get all the:thumbsup::thumbsup: alloy bits from and the gearbox. and were did you get turning buckles and rear caster i would like to make my b4 look like your buggy it look sweet ass, well nice b4 best i have seen yet

' I would like to make my b4 to look like your sweet ass '

Another Stampy classic!

Sweet ass! :thumbsup:

Read your post first before you post it so it makes sense, I am wasting my breath I feel!

:lol:Lovin it! Didn't know you swang that way? Just kidding fella I think fastrax and gpm sell various alloy parts for the B4

Yep it's all GPM stuff ! I have been running gpm blue alloy wishbones for approx 1 year and haven't broken one single part on the car and to those that say they done handle with them I have to disagree as mine has been mint all year long. Won a regional B final with them on so must be ok.
I picked the silver ones because the blue anodized layer scratches and looks crap this way you will not notice them. Blue bits are nice if they are out of the way were they don't get scratched.

there some kids on here lmfao bigboy racers :p:p:woot:

can you get the parts from the uk ?

Try ebay thats where you'll find most gpm parts ;) Alot of it is abroad but are same price as you'd pay here if not a little cheaper sometimes :thumbsup:

I got mine from ebay and they took about 2 weeks for the stuff to come. They do shock mounts but I reckon they will bend to easy

thanks do any shop stock the parts in the uk or is it just ebay that got parts

is there anywere in the uk that does them i looked all last night thanks for the link mate

Does it matter if its hong Kong or the UK ? they are good for the parts and cheap ! just have to wait a bit

he needs uk as he will only use postal orders due to no paypal account I think.

no paypal that the problem plus shipping fees and fees when it hit the uk 24% of the total cost plus 15% handel charge plus royail mail cheaper to get them from the uk or i will have to leave them alone

Why don't you just set up a paypal account? It takes just a few minutes.

need to sort a bank out first mate

No bank account?!?!

You do have running water at home though???

How the frick can you not have a bank account?!?!?!

got a bank but need to sort another card out lost it. and if not i will use my wife bank but still need to sort paypal out

you don't need a card for paypal. Mine comes direct from the account.

Col... I agree...

It is, as previously stated, a doddle to set up. It takes literally a few minutes.

And, it has SO many advantages over using postal orders.

Just been backing the shell with masking tape and notice a few cracks in the bodyshell ? It's not even been ran the car has not moved at all ! The cracks are about 5mm long and clean through the shell. It's as if the paint has reacted with the polycarbonate ? The paint is designed for polycarbonate
I am racing it tomorrow so not to confident that it will look to great after

Any ideas what's happened here ?

sounds like its cracked :p

I am cracking up now :thumbsup:

You should have saved up and got an x6 conversion. I hope the alloy doesnt bend and cause wird stuff to happen. Hopefully see it in action tomorrow!!

stampy if you keep the value of goods from abroad at £30 or less, you should not get charged import duty or handling fees??

I have had GPM alloy wishbones on since day one so not to worried. I have your long spikes in my box ! I have just put brand new yellow mini spikes on so hope they work in the new hall
