I shall build a new custom Kyosho Inferno electric in carbon. It shall be an onroad model with wheelbare 325mm

I have ordered carbon to make a new chassis

In the meantime I have ordered a motor mount for Inferno MP7.5 and I bought this defect car for the parts.

If I shall buy parts for MP7.5 on e-bay then the prices are blackmail so I have bought this defect car only for the parts. I paid 100 euro.

An Inferno GT2 is the onroad model of Inferno MP7.5 so here is a lot of parts I can use.

So far I have bought everything I need to rebuild the suspensions for onroad.
Some parts I have to buy from Aliexpress, as GT2 chassis plate and some screws, but there are no parts I can't find.
 
I am skip this project in favor of another new project
 
I have got my car. I do not need a GT2 chassis plate. I have found a body Shell That fits this wheelbase.

I have ordered all the parts I need to convert the car to onroad chassis.
I just wait for the mail.
I get the whole car for arround 700 euro and with a much more nice body shell than GT2/GT3.
Mercedes GT is rear wheel drive - Porsche has Carrera 4 so it is more realistic

And as I told - this is an Onroad MP7.5

I have bought a defect Inferno Mp7.5.
It was a dirty wreck when I got it But Ihave fixed up the parts i shall keep.
I have opened differentials and added new oil and i have given it a huge service.
Many parts in a used car.

Now I wait for onroad Shock towers, shocks and other parts in the mail.
But I do not need a GT chassis plate.

Of course it is secondhand with this age but it was not expencive.
It is meant for Inferno MP5, MP6 and MP7.5

I have got body mounts and front bumper. I wait for the foam bumper.

It becomes more and more onroad.

This project will be interessting. I have bought a 3mm thick plate in carbon, and I shall make my own custom parts.
I shall make new front bumper that is much wider and new shock towers in carbon. New body mounts will be made and many other parts.
Carbon is easy to shape with a metal saw.


I also bought a plate to make a new carbon chassis for my car.

Just be very careful with the CF dust, it can do a number on your lungs. Looking forward to seeing your project. :thumbs-up:
 
I have just bought a Dremel to make the parts.

I shall make many many carbon parts to my car and the whole chassis shall be carbon. You can say I make a corbon car.
All aluminium plates shall be changed to carbon. Chassis, shock towers, body mount, front bumper and much more.
