New Restoration project 3 (FF01)

Hi All,

It's me again.  After the Pajero and it is now the final stage of the MU, here is a new project I started last night.  It's a Tamiya FF01 chassis.  I got this used about a month ago.  When it came, it already has carbon fiber chassis, no wheels, a pink color vintage Tamiya motor, a very rare motor heat sink for FF01, some brand new parts, appears to be the front gear box and such, and a ABC Subaru Legacy Wagon cover (which is badly painted).
When I first look at it, the gear cover is the first to go.  The cooling area has been cut.  Also, some other parts has crack on them too so after I took it apart, and there are a few parts that needs definiate replacement.  
After double checking, some parts are already provided by the seller and the only thing I need to find new at this point, is the steering cup.  They are the same as the ones in CC01 (XC) ones so I hope it's not too hard to find in KWS........
Well, will keep you all posted, doesn't look like a terriablilty hard project....  

Going to steal your damn wheels while you are not home.....................

Mikemike, you want these rims?
here's my levin, your twins brother

I know how a standard FF01 look like, because I have one FF01 too!!!
But I think you guy have not fix the problem of 推頭 ~!
唔好咁serious啦，我都係玩FF01

I guess we are not actually playing these vintage...so in terms of setting we did not put too much effort in...

this car was raced with a 9T motor back then......and of course...you would need some stiff antiroll + the harder spring just to overcome the basic geometry of the FF car....

but this car..if u tune it right...is faster than a M03...

Mr. Siu See.....
No serious la......    Everyone here just want to play play and discuss...  
So, how's your FF01 look like?  I have disassembled mine and got all the replacement parts that's necessary and ready for clean and reassemble.  
So tell me, since I have never play FF01, how is it handle compare with FWD cars like M03??  I have been running M03 for a while and I recently put 23T motor in and it's pretty fast on straight but during cornering, the inside wheels spins like crazy!  
My FF01 really is gonna be for play only, not planning on running high performance race as I am going to put a "discontinue" cover on it as well.  No accident is allowed...!

ic but if we are thinking of the collection , why we just stay limited by the setting of esc or motor? Why don't we just keep our FF01 in Up-To-Day keeping them in high racing perfromance?^^

i think parts are are very limited for this discontinued model, and plus.....we dont use parts that are not from the original manufacturer......go check out a standard FF01...and then u will know what we have modified

你地架FF01好似無咩改左渣bor

Show us what you got then???  
At this point, I think people who keep their FF01 are for collection only, not much use for racing anymore... so hop-ups are not too high demanding.......................
