still not decided what colour to paint mine, I've been researching the paint schemes on early 80's Mazda racing cars though
got to dig out my short chassis TA03 too, as the standard 1/10th chassis is about 30-40mm too long for the shell

I don't have a clue what to do with the shell... Either keep it as is, just to collect it. Or paint it and use it. Problem is: using means damaging... I also wonder what engine to use: electric motor, or nitro.
I think I'll build an electroracer one day. But right now, it is just a piece of the collection.
Maybe a simple red or yellow paintjob might be very suitable, with some race-like sponsordecals.
Still time enough, as I have so many other projects on the way

i hope post didn't brake it or lost it and that you get your body. one time i bought a set of 1/43 cars from Hong Kong but the package was lost during transport
i hope this is not the case with you of course!
if you paint your body, please post pictures!
REgards,
Andreas.
guys, anyone of you does have Mini-Z Racer from HongKong ?
Local kyosho dealer (he is offering those models for $200) said that those for $90 from dinball.com store (HK) are replicas (not Kyosho original)......i doubt it,but if someone got one from there and could make detailed pictures, i would like to face it him

Higgi > There are two types of Mini z.
There is a chaeper one but still kyosho.
Howevere the one for $200 is the one to have..
I have driven both.. the "real" one acts like a racecar the cheap one like some crappy toy thing..
Andreas >> IT'S HERE! Thanks man! Now I only need to gather some old Assosiated 1/12 stuff to get a running car...

no real plans yet. I'm really under stress right now. Not knowing if I will be able to buy the parts I need for the engine swap and all that... Also: I'm learning the Alsthom locomotives right now... Rather complicated stuff.
body for racing/thrashing since i have a Viper for thoose tasks

higgi. Here is a picture of my mini-z racer.
It has got a few mods but the chassis should look like this.
