These arrived yesterday. Picked them up from VP website on Black Friday!

Wheels will be going on my Origin. The chassis pieces will be going on a set of spare VP chassis rails that will be used in my next build this winter.

New rear bumper thanks to Black Friday.



It's super scale but seems a bit big to fit my VS4-10. Might have to install it on my Tacoma instead.

Think ya should still try to fit it in the VS4-10....might be a bit wide, and will (most certainly) add a bit...ok, a LOT...of weight to the rear, but you won't be able to complain that the rear isn't protected enough.

Didn’t know biggins counted. I would’ve taken a pic of the $220 worth of valvetrain parts for my 1st gen Taco.

Here’s VW parts for my 15yo so we can have some holiday bonding while wrenching. They showed up yesterday.

Getting 4 of these tomorrow ( need 6 )
140 mm Noctura fan, 2000 RPM @ 12 V / 107 CFM





So at full tilt i will have 600 CFM going thru my case and radiators.
Though i doubt they will ever hit 2000 RPM, will probably sit around 1000 / 1200 when gaming or editing video.

Been custom-building computers for 25+ years. Noctua fans are THE best. I always try to use them, when the budget allows (ie. meaning, as long as customers don't balk at the price).

"Been custom-building computers for 25+ years"
been at it too for a long while, current computer have 1300 RPM 120 mm noiseblocker eloop in it.
But those don't have the pressure needed for my new build, their 140 mm model only have 1/4 the static pressure of the Noctura fans.



Of course a lot less noise too at just 1300 RPM and a measly 50 CFM.
The Noctura ones i get tomorrow are also the loud one with a whopping 31db at full tilt, so happy they don't go there often.


I have also build with other brands over the years, way back in the day i used Papst fans a lot.

While, technically, not actually "purchased" today, these did get delivered today. Now, even though I just started building the SSD Trail King Pro, I finally have the screws & bearings to start the TF2 build. I also ordered KNK screws, and Fast Eddie bearings for the Train Hammers kit I'm awaiting delivery on. And, for my Capra, some KNK screw loving coming it's way, too (ok, maybe not the best choice of words...lol).

With a name like ‘screw kit’ they sound a lot sexier than they are, but man, those things are super-handy. it’s always nice to be able to find that elusive screw.

Today, some Landmines 1.9 tires arrived for the Capra, along with some hop-up parts for the TF2 (which I haven't started building...yet).

Luvin' those Assassins. Those are looking, more & more, to be my #1 pick when I build my second Capra.

Here's the intake from RPM Motorsports for my 200, replaces the stock corrugated tubes and resonance chambers with smooth tubing, just had it finished in wrinkled black so it blends in well with the underhood stockness.


Also plan on getting new plugs, coils from MSD and O.E.M. Pentastar "Up-Grade" lower intake (the "P.U.G." lower flows better than ported out early O.E.M. lowers!) and install them all at once.

Also got some parts for a parking lot basher project in;
Got these a while ago off eBay


and since A-Main had a good sales on all but the needed Traxxas parts on during Thanksgiving weekend, I ordered almost the rest of what I needed for the pending build that weekend too.....even got the "Was this really you?!" text from Chase

Since i have just posted factory photos so far, i figure ill post a couple of my own photos, so you can see i have not been going political ( lying ) on you.

As i am "one of us" i have already used shoe goo to stick the four 140 mm fans together, i will come up with my own way of insulating the four fans from the Thermaltake level 20 XT case.





The 280 X 280 CM cluster of fans seem small on top of the huge level 20 XT case that are stripped down already for measurements and planning.





The level 20 XT case are not build for dual 280 radiators in the front, which are of course one of the reasons i will be going with that, no need to go wit h the stock options like most others will be doing.
Next up is taking the angle / disk grinder to the front and make a big old hole
