Well I’ve been watching a long while from down under in Aus and I finally bit the bullet and bought myself a nitro, got an old school HPI Savage looking forward to tinkering with it and get her screaming again.. appreciate your work on the channel
thanks bro! The only real tough part is finding good tires for this style model, from what I've found only the electric 4-tec 3.0 tires would be a direct fit for this style chassis.
thanks bro! You're the first comment!! SICK!! I'll still work on making this one better, its a better pipe and better shocks and bumper, but we got ourselves a RUNNER!
hey man! Thanks! Yes, this one has come a long way, still needs some work, but it's a runner!! Frankly im surprised the Picco 12 runs this great even with the highly restrictive can muffler. I'll be on the lookout for another header so I can run the CVEC pipe.
yes man, so the bad thing is Tires are not say to get for this model. IT's got much larger tires than a regular 1/10 scale and still had 12mm hubs. Basically a real PAIN in the AS* to get anything that fits, other than brand new 4-TEC 3.0 tires, those will be almost a direct fit.
Thanks man, just making nitro great again, one vintage RC at a time!! Glad to know there are sickening viewers out there like you who understand the Mission!
Thanks man! I'm just glad the super nitro made it through the video in one piece, I doubt I can find any more 3D printer files to make it even greater at this point, lol!!!
thanks my nitro bro! - Yes, this one has come a long way, still needs some work, but it's a runner!! Frankly im surprised the Picco 12 runs this great even with the highly restrictive can muffler. I'll be on the lookout for another header so I can run the CVEC pipe.
Those Supers are a blast on not terribly expensive to buy if you hit eBay every day, five times a day. Bodies are what costs the most if you like them originally. I have bought complete cars just to get the bodies.
hey man! That's SPOT on 100% about hitting embay each day, each hour of the day lol to search for a nice super nitro chassis. Yes, this one included a body when I got it, but it was literally a 1/10 scale incorrect body that the prior owner cut giant wheels wells in and killed the whole body and it still looked terrible.
LOVE IT! I still have yet to run my Super since I did the Wolfpack Chassis ... the one I sent you the pic of on IG. I have it geared for low 80s as long it pulls 40k but i dont think that will be an issue with the engine thats in there...Modded Mito 9 that was timed for lots of over rev power..power that hangs on after its peak
Yesterday I was trying to remember something and today you posted this video and I'm here laughing because it made me remember that I have a RS4 Sport with a 2speed transmission (Electric) that I used the wheel/tire combo from the Super RS4 and a blue Honda Accord body to make it look like those 20 inch rims on the ricers from back in the days rofl. Now it looked amazing, but brushless power and the electric version of the 2speed didn't go so well. Thank for the video that made me remember what I had forgotten lol.
Hey man! Happy nitro Sunday bro! What model did you run? im super curious, we all need to know what the Tmaxx KING is running out there! lol.. Yes, the handling and quirkiness of an on-road is totally unique compared to the trucks and off-road models for sure, and that's we like them!
I've found that air leaks will cause erratic idle and hard tuning. If the engine cuts out immediately when you pinch the fuel line, I think you're too lean on the low speed needle. Great content! That's a sweet set up. extended chassis 💯
I meant in your videos, not your stream, I said it was the music quality played in your videos that kind of need to improve, I love looking at nitros and your videos, I love HPI and Mugen Seiki at the same time… Can you review the Mugen Seiki MTX-2?
hey bro! that totally makes sense, I get your point now. Yes, I don't use a lot of music, but of course what I do use I have to ensure it's not 100% good music audio and I have some other noice in the back, otherwise the copyright claims gonna be popping up like people at the US border! lol... I totally know what you're saying. Plus this was a super windy day, the camera did what it could you know.
The camera is good tho, I understand the copyright claim thing as RUclipsrs as well have been getting it time to time… I have a iconic sliver HPI Nitro Star 15 FE or 12 FE Engine yesterday and I have it, I cleaned it up and I made sure it wasn’t seized as it wasn’t going all the way around when I spinned the crankshaft, now it isn’t seized up as there isn’t a flywheel, carb, and 2 speed gear on it as I am going to be those 3 things…
@hybrid32494 allowed some time to think about it. The current 1/8th scale Subaru from hpi would be nice.its a small 1/8th and narrower if I'm not mistaken. Looks better than the old hpi super bodies imo. And that chassis has extended wheelbase option . Unless ur already using long wheelbase..!!
thanks my dude! Yes, this one has come a long way, still needs some work, but it's a runner!! Frankly im surprised the Picco 12 runs this great even with the highly restrictive can muffler. I'll be on the lookout for another header so I can run the CVEC pipe.
Hay Dude it’s an RS4 Sunday! Love the super Nitro . How smooth is it with the belt system? I guess smoother than the 4tec? Thanks for bringing another great vintage Nitro back to sickening greatness 😂👍
It's great bringing an old RC back to life I just resurrected an MRC thunder king I now have three again and I need to sell at least two let me know if you know anybody who wants to buy it it's 33 years old
Hey bro, I am glad to hear you are also out there, making old RC’s great again. It is truly one of the best things about this hobby, and might even be more fun than getting a brand new one. I will ask my buddy Ben if he wants one of those for you, he is a big fan of old RCs too. This one was totally traah wen i got it too and now its a runner!
@ hey bro! Nipe, i stilll have that esc in a box ready to go! Thank you for reminding me actually. I was about to put it into that hpi rs4 i did a short on, but turns out the stock hpi esc is fine.
thanks man! It's was for sure a journey with this one, and still needs some effort like a correct side exhaust header so I can run that nice CVEC pipe. Eventually one will come around!
Hi I ordered this..astrax Lightweight Small Fuel Filter Rebuildable, is that the correct stuff to use to oil the air filter? I am new to nitro so unsure if I got the correct stuff? Thanks
hey man! You're correct, these models were usually used for speed runs a long time ago, because they could easily handle a high RPM small block, a 2-speed, larger wheels, and had good enough ground clearance. Basically these were the ARRMA Vendetta of their time, but nitro and way cooler.
HPI was my favorite RC company growing up. I had a Nitro Rush and I mowed lawns and saved for one. Wish HPI was still current in the Industry.

@ that would be a nice upgrade, but seriously it was a great run with a great tune
nice run with some good tires that thing would very fast in the turns

@hybrid32494 it's TMAXX younger sister 😁 I only run the best 😂✌️
Awesome video man 👍🏻 always thought on road nitro looked fun but I’ve lived out in the country on gravels roads since i was 5 😂

I was curious if your tires would suck as much as mine... I have the same ones and they don't grip at all.
Good run my brother !
Amazing bro sickening rc Nitro
I'm feeling SUPER already, lol!!
6:05 A new set of tires is needed.
Good luck finding body options for that!
YUP, totally true bro! IT's close to impossible for under 50 bucks. These use a highly unique body size, thats why there is no body, lol.
@hybrid32494 allowed some time to think about it. The current 1/8th scale Subaru from hpi would be nice.its a small 1/8th and narrower if I'm not mistaken. Looks better than the old hpi super bodies imo. And that chassis has extended wheelbase option . Unless ur already using long wheelbase..!!
Nice! I have a ofna nitro z10 that I'm rebuilding now. Waiting on parts now. I'm a nitro guy.
The rear exit exhaust is so pimp
That's a sick car!

@hybrid32494 I can remember when these were on the shelves. I miss those days.
@hybrid32494 I want a rs4 with the f150 body.
Awesome 👊💯🤙
Thanks for the love bro! This thing is a runner again, and I am stoked.

@ hey bro! Nipe, i stilll have that esc in a box ready to go! Thank you for reminding me actually. I was about to put it into that hpi rs4 i did a short on, but turns out the stock hpi esc is fine.
I used to have one back in the day 😊
This is so funny! Cause I just took out my hpi super nitro rs4 rally. I chose this cause of the shaft drive versus the belt.
Phenomenal………🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🦾🦾🦾😎

Where did you find parts for this? I have one in pieces from 20 years ago, but parts are impossible to find!
OH as far as gaskets , you can use Glossy Baseball cards just have to break out the razor blade
Did a rs4 set not some speed record years ago ?
