Mill

alright i have 2 mills i am watching on ebay. a sts d30m and a lrp z28r spec 3. the lrp is a pull start, but i was wondering if they make a rotostart back plate for it. the sts is rotostart.
which mill is better?
 
well heres a pic with the shocks on! all converted thanks to the last of it from Dave (BlazerX)

sorry for the poor quality, was using my camera phone.
 
tahts all the savvy is gonna get for a while. my puckup just blew the trans out when i was shooting for more hp. seeing as the wicked race to get more HP has left me without any cash, and a need for a new transmission, i have to start saving for the next month or two to get myself a new ATS transmission. so unfortunately my savvy has to get shelved for a while cus i cant afford to break it cus then i want to fix it right away.
ill be around the forums still, but probably not too responsive. i hope you all have better luck that i am having recently, and happy bashing to you all!
 
well got a chance to run my savvy. its a bit cold, just below freezing, but i wanted to run it. i got everything together, filled it up went to the back porch, and it started right up. then died. tired again, started right up, then died. i look at my glow plug igniter, and its down to 3ish on the gauge. so i come back into my room to try and find my charger, and i left it in ohio. CURSE MY IMPATIENCE!! i finally got the backplate from HPI and i cant run it cus my igniter is dead. talk about bad luck..
 
well i got some more pics like i said i would.

here ya go fellas.

alright guys. i have some possibly bad news. I may have to sell my savage in the near future. times are getting tough, and i have enough extra parts to eventually build another one. but, i cant keep up with how much stuff is breaking on this thing. i have gone through 2 engine backplates, 5 owb's, melted a spur in 20 minutes, constantly ripping exhaust couplers, and the list keeps going on and on.

If i do decide to sell, i will be taking most of the upgrades off, including the cen diffs, lst shocks, and possibly the flm stuff. and, as per my choice, you guys will have first dibs. i will keep you guys posted. and Happy Bashing!
 
dude try take the things off that maby causeing the high powered breakage of stuff or what ever is causeing the breaking


ps the tank gaurd will be in the mail on monday for sure absoutley definatley!!!!!
 
its not breaking really, just falling apart. loctite doesnt want to keep the nuts and screws in, and such. I'm not really even bashing it. just driving it. it does wheelies occasionally and doesnt normally leave the ground. i know my front bearing is leaking like a siv, so i am probably going to replace it, or blow it up. i haven't decided yet. and like i said, i may not have to sell it, i may just put my second one together with the parts i like off of this one and sell the rest, ill keep you guys informed.
 
I'm thinking of keeping all the parts that i want, and selling off the extras as a roller. prolly keep the thing almost the same, mid tank it, and see how that works.
 
WOOO
i started my mid tank mod last night. i woke up around 1am and couldn't sleep, so i got to it. i have a cen matrix 125cc tank for now. all i have left to do is mount the rpm receiver side box, and pick up some extensions for the wires. which i cant seem to figure out how to do. anybody have any pics or can tell me what holes the box mounts in?
 
it was really easy to do. i didnt get alot of pics cus it was dark in the room. but ill take pics when i get it out again. its mostly done, but i can take it apart a bit and take some pics.
