I just got the GT-R lower chassis from CXP and I must say that it just might be better then the switchblade. It seems to be more rigid. I used the switchblade upper chassis. Check out the pics. The batteries aren't on it yet because I want to shrink wrap the supports because the battery ends sit really close to them and could short out.



You are an xmod god. It's good to see some more "old-school" stuff on here. This newer line of crap is depreessing looking.
[quote:6af641f065="Maxaxle"]Cool! Does it actually work?
:lol: I don't think it makes much of a difference from the stock chassis besides weight and strength.
thats the point.
how much was that total?
Thank you. My thoughts exactly. Total cost for the car...the whole 9 yards is about $470.

thats cool dude.
nice worlk
thats tight
that works.
thats nice!
are yo using liths and if so how are you going to mount them bcause you either need the bottum part of the switch blade or the one piece upper deck from cxp. unles you are doing it some other wierd way.
Hope these pics clear things up for you.

If I were to "guesstimate" the weight difference between the two chassis, I would say that there is really no difference, unless you factor in the weight of the vertical supports. As for the strength, it definally is stronger hands down which is why I'm using just the top half of the switchblade now.
trust me there is no other car than the Skyline GT-R. :wink: :mrgreen:
we've been saying it since AM's prototypes came out... CXP just makes a sturdier chassis. heavier no doubt, but sturdier by far.
that chassis better go under a skyline GTR. :wink:
Lol...Maxaxle is Dumb like that.He dont appraciate other people time and Effort to make stuff to Help us and Them.Also Why would you want Fiber Class.That would be Heavy for these Cars to be pulling.Thats Like a 1/24th DieCast Car.
why would you want fiberglass? this chassis is stronger than both, and lighter, and if you want a really fast car, it would be worth it, get that whole "carbon fiber=cool!" thing out of your head.
Dude, maxaxle, he wasnt saying that the chassis was that much, he is talking about the car total, with all of the upgrades.
You need to read, use your common sense and stop posting crap, Max. Pay attention.
And if you were talking about the car, then where does CF or fiberglass fit in? Were talking about the alloy, liths, and more...
My friend, you haven't been around long enough to fully appreciate the older cars. Btw, since you already brought back a 1-month-dead thread, go look at some 1-year-old threads.
Maxaxle- what's worth it, in your opinion?
thats the point.

Wow. I don't think it's worth it, unless it's carbon-fiber or fiberglass.
