i then got a x-trail chassis to use. $30
i cut down the axles to 8.5in and used the stock emaxx wheels in ax10 tires which both i had for free but on ebay you can get the tires for $22
i then used all the electronics from the rtr which is also free of expence, but if i dident have these you can get them super cheap. $60
i am going to be getting a proline body $25

total $197
my cost $115

here are some pics without body because i dont have it yet.
pictures are taken from iphone so they are not great quality.
