a nylint for under 300, is it just me, or am i misssing the hard part about this?

Jeepernick 07-23-2006 01:35 AM

I dont understand

TLTCrawlin 07-23-2006 01:37 AM

haha, my tlt is ending up at 260 RTR, with a k2 chassis, stealth trans, geos, etc and you are making nylints more than my tlt, dam!

TLTCrawlin 07-23-2006 01:47 AM

ya, and a TLT could whoop you! LMAO!

I WIN ;-)

Half the price and most modded rig i seen so far

I get pix soon of my newest build to it, just no camra right now




Front and rear 4-linked
EVX ESC
JR650 Servo for strong true steering(not weak nylint steering)
Traxxus 2chan. radio/resev.
PEDE shocks
85* flex
Tyres cut and narrowed
and such

soon to be running duel 3600 mAh batteries(currently on two 1500 mAh)

yeah guess what, I payed 100 for mine so its not gonnabe as easy as you guys think:roll:

joecrawler 07-23-2006 10:25 AM

yeah but i have a line that will kill a tlt becuase you need a exact tire placement or you fall into a 9 foot deep creek.

oh well hear is my basic start-
tires cut

chassis hooked up and started on-

and yes that is painters tape i am using i forgot to get electrical tape at the store.

Jeepernick 07-23-2006 11:38 AM

just by using the stock battery u are behind, those things are so heavy

ClodCrawlin:
And yes I hope u TLT and take my Nylint, but I would still love to see it, and I bet anything it wouldnt whoop it :flipoff:

trickedoutnylint06:
100$ sorry, I paid 49$
and I have played with stock Nylints, they can go places, but they have major clearence issues

My future Clod will whoop all urs :flipoff::flipoff: :lol:

trickedoutTLT06 07-23-2006 05:22 PM

Jeepernick 07-23-2006 05:39 PM

what kinda stick pack are u talking about?

and ummm about that sticked thing

trickedoutTLT06 07-23-2006 06:04 PM

whats wrong with the stick?, i need like just a pack that will work with my nylint that i can ductape to the stick LOL. i know i know..this is the first build i have done im a newb

'75 Bronco 07-23-2006 07:19 PM

I don't get whats so hard about this challenge. the price cap should be about half that or less. for $300 you should build something hobby level. both you are acting like the price cap is like only $20 for mods. both rigs look kinda crappy.
Just do wrecker's buildup plus a good servo and shave where the old steering unit used to be. you'd be under $300 and you'd have an unstoppable nylint.

swamp_rat 07-23-2006 08:37 PM

you dont have to get the point of this..why do ricers take a 90hp civic and throw $10k into it and make it a race car..because they want to right?

keep up the good work guys!

trickedoutTLT06 07-23-2006 08:46 PM

ok how about not hijacking this thread guys, Please i mean c'mon link ur truck but not on someones build,
Thank you

trickedoutTLT06 07-23-2006 09:22 PM

lol i dont think joecrawlers a newb, but this is my first truck so dont expect much, next im ordering a TLT kit...then comes the talent...

trickedoutTLT06 07-23-2006 09:25 PM

you mean you will believe it when u see it lol, but i suck with electronics...i've never gone hobby grade before...So that might be a problem lol

trickedoutTLT06 07-23-2006 09:26 PM

i got a ? what size is ur vette body...like 1/10 or 1/8? i want a body that will actually fit the wheelbase of my nylint... from the tip of the front tire to the edge of the back one its exactly 20 1/2
