GoMachv's hopped up Nikko Dictator
 
Long story short, I've always liked the Dictators and never got my hands on one until recently. I didn't realize how many vehicles shared this platform. I swapped over the axles for Kyosho, standard in the rear and universals up front. Of course bearings throughout. Had to carve a little on the suspension, the travel is very limited from the factory. I added some Tamiya shocks and a RC10 bellcrank with my own chassis set. Kyosho modern wing mounts and custom motor mount plates that allow me to use a 10-14 tooth pinion. I have another car ready to go together that will have dual 540's. For this one, i used Tamiya Sport tuned 380's with 14t pinions. Can't wait for a dry day to take it for a spin!

I've got a load of bits I was sorting through the other week and I'm sure I have some parts for one of these. I would never of knew what they were for if it wasn't for your love of the odd car Jeff looks much better!
