I finally was able to pull the trigger on this Demon
Tekin Rx8 and SC4x 4.5 will power it. I'm super excited to drive in this class. I think it is a solid race plateform. Hurry Fedex!

Is that site reputable to deal with. $95- postage to Australia, but thats going to be what i need to pay i reckon. I like the demon. I'm guessing it's a bit cheaper than the subaru and fiesta due to not having licensing fees to pay??

Who else stocks Kyosho, other than Amain?

This is my first purchase from Infernosonly. However, I have not heard anything negative.
Amain and Infernosonly seem to be the main online dealers.

Can't you go through Japan or China and get a little better deal?

Might want to try it out.

I'm googling...... Cheapest so far is about $85- postage from USA eBay, which I think might be coming from Hong Kong as you say. Edit: eBay items are from the US. Can't seem to find many sellers from China/Hong Kong.

How's this for service - I go to my local hobby shop to ask whether they can get them and how much. They say " ooohhh very expensive". I ask, "ok, how much is that?". They reply, "ahhh, too expensive to worry about". I quickly walk out the door. And they complain about the increase in Internet shopping......

That body looks awesome! Just missed out on Amain's 10% off deal (although they only had the the Subaru). Rc planet or eBay will be my friend, sending me a Demon, veeerrrry soon.

Those light buckets are actual buckets are they? Just not as detailed/authentic as the fiesta ones.... And one more question, pics I can fins seem to show primarily Phillips screws. Is that right? Any hex hardware at all? Metric or imperial? Cheers.

It's a gorgeous body and scheme forsure. However, There are no light buckets in the rear. It's a sticker. The front has the bucket's though.

Yeah, I was kinda bent Amain didn't carry the Demon. Since I shop mostly there. All my rewards points are there. Also bent they don't carry Tamiya. Can't have it all I guess. I haven't dove into yet. But from what I have seen alot of phillips.

It's hard to stop staring at it . I'm just blown away how awsome it looks. I can't wait to drive it. Hopefully this afternoon. Going over setup right now.

Forsure video coming. I just don't know if today or tomarrow.
Gotta go to bed in a couple of hours. And setup is still not done.

Any reason for the running gear upgrade? Didn't even drive the standard set up?
