Finally, 3/8 of the upgrade plans.

Went to winnie's shop Swan Hobby at Orchard Plaza. Got a few stuffs there.
New Body clips. It is much longer now... providing a MUCH LESS hassle to clip the shell to the chassis...
First thing, i took off the spoiler of the 350Z shell, due to majority of people telling me that it was nicer without a spoiler, largely thanks to Alston of SPRCD. I really like my shell like this.
Did what i promised. i changed the driveshaft, a few scratches though.... Some stones got caught even though the shell is there....
My New Attanae, I took 1 hr to do it... Cut the stock CF stick provided by 1/4.... Twined it about 30 mins.... then took some masking tape and made them less messy.
My new heat sink!! This thing was said to be a waste of money. It wasn't, it really kept the motor cooler than expected.... loved the color too =) oh, and one screw went away for some reason...lol.
Lastly, My exhaust hop up. I did this, to enhance the look of the car... Looks like the HKS Muffler though.... just without the blue flame effect.

As you have realised... Theres some aluminium tape on my shell... That is to reinforce the sturdiness of the shell.. i got it from winnie's for $8?? my memory is not very good.

Recently, i cooked my battery.... I mean it. it Burned for god knows how long before MZ aka wonderlite realised.... it melted the whole shrink wrap..

Now i can't force charge using T15, But possible with wall charger. It still is able to take its full capacity.... but it will Melt now when the T15 completes chargiing...

This is going to cost me a bomb.... to get a New battery, Lipo pack+T15/Hyperion charger...

T.T

OK... I'll do this now, My plans are to Hop up this chassis as far as possible, the next upgrade will probably be the CF Underchassis Swap from 3racing.

After, it'll be another new chassis...
No idea which one it'll be... but most likely TA05 with CF/Square Conversion..

Pretty much this is it.... I'll be back next week.
