@@MSC-dudeYT yes, 1/10 Tamiya 👍

@toppertopp thanks i have the same car just wanted to know

Hi, thanks. The rear tail lights are masked out and no additional stickers. You could fit indicator led's in place of the tail lamps.

@@toppertoppthanks for the redponse

@@toppertoppdid you paint the rear lights red? I mean they have a nice design red with transparent middle. It’s a sticker or no?

@@Billan123 ah yes, you do get transparent stickers with the kit to finish them off.

@@toppertopp damn i wonder if I can find them separate prob not, I bought a gtr shell from aliexpress but the tail lights are clear

Yes, they're quite alike. I too have the Manta Ray, awesome chassis. Never had one back in the day, just a Falcon 👍

Tamiya 54298 LHD 👍

Yes, it is an original 👍

Thanks. They were painted first, always paint dark colours before lighter colours 👍

Ugh, I was worried you’d say that 😂 you had to mask the entire car for that 1 strip at the bottom…

Yep, unfortunately. Problem is, iff you spray the silver first, then the black, the black will bleed through the silver 😔

Thanks 👍 I went slightly off boxart to simalarise between the two models, turned out well 😎

Yes, holes are pre drilled 👍

@@toppertopp thanks!

I've never ran it but stocke speed is around 18 - 20mph.

Standard long wheelbase, 257mm 👍

Bought it from ebay. Tamiya 54298. Painted it myself 👍

@@toppertopp Nice. Thanks for the info.

A-main in the US. They are very rare now.

The wheels I believe are Ride from rcmart, and the lights are gool rc from ebay 👍

I painted them, always looks better with a painted finish rather than bare plastic 👍

I use a hobbywing 1060. It's for brushed motors and ideal for motors down to 12 turn. The hobbywing is the goto ESC for brushed motors 👍

@@toppertopp you’re saving me time and money brother 👌

Only used one can, then backed with white 👍

Hi, thanks. A bit of advice when you build one, glue the rear fenders on first before spraying. Iff you spray the rear fenders first and then glue them on, the glue attacks the paint and can be a pain to stick and ends up creating a mess. So glue them on first, then spray together with the main shell. I don't build them anymore, but that's not to say I wont in the future. If Tamiya release something special, like an 80's re-release I could be tempted. I do still have a collection though.

@@toppertopp thanks for tips,what glue did you use fella

@@col72 Just Tamiya cement glue, any cement glue will do though.

Yes, I painted them in Tamiya TS-17 👍 looks loads better than standard wheel plastic.

They are Astute dampers. I got the part numbers out the manual and searched ebay for the individual parts 👍

They are original Tamiya models. I have applied different stickers from MCI RACING in Canada 👍

Possibly splash proof but I wouldn't say waterproof.

@@toppertopp OK thanks

@@toppertopp is everything you need included? Also remote control and battery?

@@lukasgrunstaudl53 when you buy the kit you only get the bare chassis, wheels and motor and bodyshell. You will have to buy the LED's and remote seperatley.

@@toppertopp oke thanks

The wheels are from a TT-02R 👍

Thanks. The body line are Kyosho 0.4mm micron tape. The antenna cap I got form modelsportuk but you can buy them from pretty much any modelstore or ebay.

You mean fold it round to the outside of the shell? If so then yes. Make sure when you peel it off it doesn't remove the protective film. I tend to use news paper for masking large areas on the inside and fold it round to the outside, then just secure in place with tape.

No I didn't bother. The grey was dark enough not to bleed light through. I see no reason to back dark colours.

@@toppertopp OK cool quick reply cheers

Yep, had to mask the whole shell and leave the black bits.

OK cheers
