First Gen Toyota SCX-10 got a scx-10 a while back and have been working on it for a while now. i took a bunch of pictures of it so now i am going to start a build thread on it. It has a novak brushless goat 2s system and a spectrum receiver and remote. On 2.2 wheels with custom beadlocks. Heres a couple pictures of when i first got it. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7581038710/" title="IMAG0490 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7259/7581038710_2666c67b03_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0490"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7581034646/" title="IMAG0493 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7278/7581034646_d1e335ac93_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0493"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7581033380/" title="IMAG0494 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8155/7581033380_743f46fc00_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0494"></a> First thing to go is the 2.2s didnt like the look of them being that big and didnt look actually "scale". So ordered some 1.55 black wagon wheels and 1.55 iroks to make it look a little better. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7581030938/" title="IMAG0500 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8284/7581030938_4f07ae3259_c.jpg" width="800" height="478" alt="IMAG0500"></a> |
Re: First Gen Toyota SCX-10 Next thing i did was cut the springs shorter and take all the oil out of the shocks to make the suspension softer and also to make it have a lot more down travel. now it sits lower and about 80% of the suspension is down travel to keep it from rolling because it sits low but it has i little bit of up travel to make it ride normal. Heres a picture of it flexing with the new setup. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580931818/" title="IMAG0504 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7124/7580931818_1679344731_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0504"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7581029118/" title="IMAG0502 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8155/7581029118_3e265d6704_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0502"></a> Heres the new stance of it. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7581026614/" title="IMAG0506 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8293/7581026614_28b55095f0_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0506"></a> Rear Flex. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7581023736/" title="IMAG0508 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7258/7581023736_a74daab982_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0508"></a> |

It also has pretty good flex too which is even more of a plus. I forgot to say that these are not the stock shocks either. they are shocks off of an axial wraith. |
Re: First Gen Toyota SCX-10 Now moving on to the mojave body to actually make the first gen. After Painting it. I rhino lined the bed with actual rhino line paint and then painted the rest of the body toyota tan!!

Re: First Gen Toyota SCX-10 Check out the rear shock set up on the TR2. |
Re: First Gen Toyota SCX-10 Somehow i broke the novak system driving it in dry dirt so i sent that in to be fixed and decided to tear apart the rear end to fix the body mounts and shocks. I like to keep everything nice and clean... ha <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580950190/" title="IMAG0547 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7108/7580950190_cb0aeb983f_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0547"></a> So what i did was mounted the springs to the rear of the axle and made a triangle formation connection it to the rear cross member and then shaved down the body mount to the perfect height. also moved the rear axle back about 5mm to sit even in the rear fender wells. heres a picture of the new setup with the springs remounted. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580996616/" title="IMAG0548 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8164/7580996616_2e5d87b6b3_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0548"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580992314/" title="IMAG0551 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7266/7580992314_57bbee290f_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0551"></a> it will flex a rockstar can perfectly. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580991158/" title="IMAG0552 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7116/7580991158_a0401edfe7_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0552"></a> AND with all of that done it sits like that. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580985440/" title="IMAG0556 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7263/7580985440_5417fb14d2_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0556"></a> sits just how i want it to and everything. stuffs the tires and looks awesome! just need that novak back so i can drive it now!!

Re: First Gen Toyota SCX-10 I love the Toyota. Seen a lot of them on here but yours is so clean and IMHO sits at the perfect ride height. Can't wait to see what else you do with this build. |
Re: First Gen Toyota SCX-10 I got bored waiting for the new novak system so i decided to go ahead and re paint the old honcho body. taped off all the windows and the front grill sticker to make it look a little nicer. went with the same toyota tan only rhino lined the bottom part of it and the rear cage. looks sweet i think. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580982418/" title="IMAG0558 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8167/7580982418_957443434c_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0558"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580980926/" title="IMAG0559 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8003/7580980926_1b14eb956e_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0559"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580952006/" title="IMAG0561 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8020/7580952006_a9b08de611_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0561"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580953770/" title="IMAG0562 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8006/7580953770_1a19b0879f_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0562"></a> All put back together looks nice! <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580977894/" title="IMAG0563 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7267/7580977894_49875feec4_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0563"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580976238/" title="IMAG0565 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7276/7580976238_5ca4d0d91c_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0565"></a> Both bodies side by side. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580973972/" title="IMAG0568 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8294/7580973972_71ed45bc1a_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0568"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580972766/" title="IMAG0569 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8009/7580972766_bcc3cbfb79_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0569"></a> New decal for the roof <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580957782/" title="IMAG0585 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7263/7580957782_cd58ddfff7_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0585"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49839190@N06/7580956924/" title="IMAG0586 by Donnie896, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7250/7580956924_1aa831c484_z.jpg" width="640" height="383" alt="IMAG0586"></a> |

Re: First Gen Toyota SCX-10 First round of my bumper build didnt go so good. solder wouldnt hold at all so i pretty much gave up. i tried using solder with a propane torch to join brass tubing and plating and had no luck at all. any advice? anybody know an easier way than solder and different material to use? it would really help me a lot thanks guys! as soon as i get my electronics back ill get some pictures of it out in the hillclimbs! |

Re: First Gen Toyota SCX-10 How does that rear suspension setup work for you? I was thinking of angling my shocks in towards the tranny plate for a little more articulation but I never thought of trying it like that. Is it stable? |
