toyeast had a set of the tuneup box + 3.0 motor, i went back the next day and it was gone, now they only have the set w/o the motor, for close to $50

An hour after I ordered an OEM Light Up celica from Toyeast for $19.08 shipped, I found a place that sells them for $25-$35 plus shipping, based in the US. Linky

The guy that owns that store is a member at this board.

Another mini-R/C forum

confirmed addict on teh loose! (me)

I wasted my subaru cause it wouldn't turn left so I exchanged it for a new one .. I got the 2.6 motor and painted it, did the range mod (controller) and the antenna mod on teh car .. sweet, lots of range now. It's kind of ugly with my new paint job though, I want my white WRX back, but alas, I bought a Mitsubishi, the red one and it kicks, the handling is a lot better on it (why I don't know) .. but both are fun to play with and it's been nothing but racing with the friends all the damn time .. going crazy! :eek:

How did you do the range mods? I still have a week or 2 to wait until my order arrives.

If I ever get bored or have extra money, I want to use the parts to make a rc airplane. Like this one. Text :cool:
