i know stuff about them i dont think it should be to hard buy I'm not to sre about the diffs and cluctch things like that but i want to know what one my car and learn how to put it together

it's not that bad. Associated has the most detailed instructions that I've ever seen. actual size pics and step by step instructions

The instructions for my HPI Savage SS and the RS4 3 SS are very good also. Ofna instructions suck ass!

I put that kit together, and it was my first one. Its really not hard, diffs were no problem. Thats a pretty good price too.

Ofna instructions suck ass!

Agree!!!!

Don't worry about how hard it is.
If you want easy, get a RTR. If you want to learn about the RC you are driving so you are better prepared to fix it and to know every detail on how it works, build it. Doesn't mater how long it takes or how many questions you need to ask. there is nothing like the pride of ownership you have once its done.

Nothing in life that is good will be easy.

this is soooo true kid...learn it now
get one that has lots of support from your LHS....meaning the model they carry the most of that's in your budget....or save more and get the better model....If you know you like the hobby don't get something to just have one....see what you really like and save your pennies til you can get that one.....aren't you the kid w/ the auto parts job? if so shouldn't take too long to whichever RC you want......you'll save money in the long run doing that.....

i say jump in with both feet and see where you end up if you have any mechanical ability at all (ie) you can turn wrenches, and know how to follow directions you should be fine, and if you do run into a hard spot there are plenty of us to point you in the right direction, good luck with your purchase.

yea h I'm am the one with the job but i have to save 3000 for a paintjob for my truck in august so its still a little tight. and the lhs has a lot of part for hpi and asociated

Yea that is a good price for that kit. Just take your time and look at the directions carefully and you should be fine. I put that kit together also, it is a great kit.

That's my buddy at Rob's R/C Hobbies in Garden Grove. He is really cutting you a great deal.

Anyhow, I built the EXACT same kit. I think the HPI directions are better than the Associated, and way better than the Thunder Tiger. Get it, you won't regret it. The kit is complete except for electronics.

The 2 kits I had a question: HPI & Mugen, I called them up & they new exactly what I was talking about & walked me through until I got the part together correctly. Overall, their instructions where very clear. But with any kit, you will have some question & you can always call them for help no problem.
