i have just bought a HPI Baja 5B and have only been playing around in parks
dose anyone have any ideas where in the Perth Metro area there is good place to have a bash around
and if there is anyone else in Perth wih has a Baja wnd wasts to go out for a bash PM me and i will organise a time.
it is the best thing i have spent money on.....
i have upgraded a lot of parts on it and also worked on the starter motor putting wire filter on the slots so i dont get rocks and grass stuffing the starter motor.
i broke the main drive gear today snapping a bolt in the clutch bell housing thats ok cause im going to buy a new clutch (not a stock one) for a quicker take off.
there is $700 worth of alloy parts to make it a jumping beast i will get when i brake more parts it jumps good enough already.
the beach is the best spot to bash with the sand paddles but i also like parks just to see the peoples faces when i explain it almost weighs 10Kg and is powerd by a 23cc wipper snipper motor the price tag is what makes ther jaw drop $1600 for a toy realy ( it is if your not racing it ) i have it just to jump and bash around so i need to mod it so it will not break if this is possibale
I love them... i really need to look at getting mine fixed. The TJ is a big resource hog at the moment - quadratec just made a nice $600 out of me as well as all the other bits i have been doing to my TJ.
when both of mine were going, my old man was watching mine pull "wheelie's" (yes.. off the line, it pulls wheelies) and forgot to take his finger off the trigger... drove his straight into a tree.
A $15 bearing from the local shop, and a new rim / tyre and she was right to go again, no other damage. They are hard as nails -
Every cent spent on these toys is less dollars to spend on the Jeeps.
Whats wrong with you boys?
Atleast you dont have to worry about track closures and adr compliance.
