I don't know Swede, sounds like a nitro to me :lol:. I wish the baja was really that quick.... maby soon;)

Here are some more photos with HPI Baja Wheels/Tires I have since run several tanks of fuel and everything is holding up fine. I am going to be making several more sets if anyone is interested. Price will be $75 USD + shipping. Send me a PM if interested. or have any questions.

Well after some posts and no parts availabe, I decided to machine my own utalizing an extra set of HPI wheel hubs I had. Machining fronts to fit FG bearings Machining aluminium sleeves for rears

Anyone notice the front and rear swaybars? New accessory soon? Hope so.

DDM Has them, On sale too, $119.99

HPI 5b Pipe Got mine today from DDM $119 minus 5% discount. Installed it already and did a quick run. Awesome. Not as quick on the low end but better top end over my x-can. Nicely made, heavy guage alum. and best of all it fits. It's loud but sounds like all buisness especially when it comes on...

My mother-inlaw has had a stroke and have been helping my wife dealing with her care. Have no time for toys now. Johnny 5b remains dissassembled:( Will get back to you all when I can.

Well since there doesn't seem to be anything out there to help me out, I am going to do some expementing my self. Have purchased a set of HPI hubs and maby with the right combination of other HPI parts, machining and bearing choices I might be able to pull it off without big $$$ spent. Will keep...

Yea my shocks were leaking out of the box. Called HPI and they wanted me to send them in. I opted to dissassemble them (Didn't want to be out of commission with a brand new car for however long it would take for replacements) and check over, nothing found really but after re-assembly they no...

I will post pics as soon as I can. Some family health issues developed and has and will be taking up much of my time for a while. I did manage to get all the rear carbon installed as well as the rear alloy arms. New engine is dressed and ready to go in. The HPI carbon fiber parts are an exact...

That's great but for the cost of a set of alloy wheels alone, one could purchase a set of adaptors, wheels and tires with some cash left over.

Just got them today, They look great.

Well my new 5b is spread out all over my shop in preperation for a compleate makeover (plus it needed a deep cleanning). Just recieved the mother load today, Full HPI carbon fiber bits, RC4WD front & rear aluminium suspension set and stainless hardware. I am also installing a new Zenoah G260RC I...

Just installed mine today. A little more difficult to start without choke. I pump primer bulb about 10 times and within 2-5 pulls it will start. Runs great, definite improvement over stock.

Interesting site, they don't seem to have anything in stock though. Also found the sport buggy interesting, looks just like a 5b. Clone???? 5b's real roots??? It's cheaper, parts & upgrades could be interchangeable. Hmmmm!

Well I did it, I just purchased the RC4WD front & rear aluminium suspension set. Cost nearly as much as the 5b. Am I nuts or what? Resistance was futile! Think that's sikk, as soon as I get the parts, there going to the anodizer to get a coat of purple. Yea, I can hear some of you gasping but...

Would he consider a custom one-off set and for how much?

Got the extra stinger and installed both. Hope to run today and test. Initial startup sounded good but still loud (as if I care:) ) I am plannining to shoot some photos and try and get them posted. Full throttle to all.

Have you purchased Nitro fuel lately? $25+per gal for 20% and I used to run 33% in my traxxas 3.3's @ $30 per gallon. I can run all season on coleman fuel for that price. BTW Sellinmg all of my nitro cars:)

I planned to use 2 HPI stingers since I have won one on ebay for .99. If it works well I will continue to use it. If not I may fabricate my own 2-1 silencer setup and see how that works. I am trying to stay away from the tuned pipes even though they give better performance. Don't like the look...
