that is nice of him, most places would say you're SOL

Why would I have been SOL with other places?? The mistake was made by Robin or his employees, not by me. I do appreciate him in making it right, he is sending me a polished pipe, I ordered the raw finish. I guess I will have another week to week and a half to wait for it to get here, according to Robin. I sure hope this pipe is worth the wait, this LRP ZR32 with the XL 5.9 pipe is pretty impressive, I can't wait to do a hands on comparison of the two pipes.
 
i mean SOL with other businesses. a lot of businesses wont replace there problems

I hope your wait is worthwhile too. In my case, the long wait and cost of the pipe was not justified. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice pipe but.. Not worth the frustration I went through to get it. :\

now from what I have seen, buku puts out better quality pipes for the price of performance. but this is just what I've seen.
 
So I have been looking at the shocks on my Losi LST, what do I have to buy in order to adapt these on my Savage? I know I have seen people on here with that conversion. Is it worth doing??

Nice. How much time and $$$ Do you have in that??? A ton I bet!!! I know I started adding up the price of all the stock parts I have bought and it is way more than I could have bought it as a kit with the 4.6 motor in it. It is getting close to being done, I worked on it last night, just need to put the shocks on it, servos in it and get my pipe from Robin. I ordered a 72 Chevy body for it yesterday off of ebay, it is already painted, I gave up on painting. LOL.

Here is the body I bought.

I can't wait to see how this LRP 32 with the ERMC pipe compares to my Savage with the Losi 454, that truck is a screamer. Shouldn't be no contest between the two.

I needed another truck like a hole in the head, I forgot how addictive this hobby really is. I might have to sell one of my trucks to justify this one.

Yeah the rotostart backplate for a LRP Z28 works perfect on the LRP 32. LRP doesn't list a rotostart for the 32 but I have a LRP 28 with a Rotostart on it and decided to try it on the 32, it is a perfect match. It is a lot nicer than having a pull start. Actually I have the LRP 28 rotostart backplates on a Losi 454, LRP 28 and the LRP 32.
 
how dare you go with a roto starter! lol.. kidding, but i just can't get over the roto start, pull start 1 pull done is my thing, then again. I'm an in and out kinda guy;)

LOL!! Pull strings are for tampons, not engines! LMAO!! Just kidding. I don't have a pull start on anything I own, except for the Nitro Evaders, can't get a rotostart for them. I can't stand a pull start, even if they start on the first pull. If you ever have to replace yours, let me know. I have a bunch of pull starts off of Losi 454's, LRP 28's, Losi 427's and the LRP 32.
 
by the way, ill be uploading a first person view bashing video sometime tonight. first time doing 10-12 ft jumps with my LRP. didnt break anything today:)

Hell yeah!! I can't wait to see it.

I took a few more pics of mine last night, as you can see it isn't as clean as before, not a shelf queen, (although the body probably is). LOL. I have it broke in, now just waiting for my new pipe. I got my new Losi tires so now I can return these back to my LST. This LRP motor is a beast!!

My pipe is finally here!!! It is sitting at the post office, now just waiting to get off of work so I can go get it.

just need to polish that header now and it will look orgasmic;P
 
I couldn't wait for the weekend, I had to at least hear what it sounded like so I fired it up in my living room last night. It sounds awesome!!!!! I can't wait to see how she runs now.
 
You might be a redneck if you start up your RC in your living room!

LMAO!!!! True, at least I didn't run it through the house (yet). It didn't take long before the exhaust fumes start burning my eyes. :)
