[davegt27]

talk about old school. I bought on of those kits back in 1982 when i was stationed in England 254 pounds which was pretty pricey.

[rcoffroads]

what is the yellow bigginer crawler

[HywayHauler]

I recently bought an original Tamiya Blazing Blazer NIB for 2100$. As I understand it, the Blazing Blazer is the Hilux's little sister??? minus the transistorized speed control? any info would be graet.

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

@HywayHauler 2100$ for a single rc?! wouldnt u rather buy 3 MMM e-revo's?

[drfitnessnow]

@xXShadowRejectsXx or maybe even a real toyota truck?...for $2100 you could be wheelin' tomorrow!!

[alexhotwheelguy]

where can you buy a toyota hilux like this one

[rctrucknut]

Those things are sweet, that is every tamiya collectors dream is to own one of those, unfortunatly one in ruff shape can go for $1000 or more. If you have one still mint in the box, you can get a minimum of $4000.

[Harvz78]

How come the new Tamiya High Lift does not have the locking hub?

[brutformen]

@Harvz78 because what they have now is a pin that goes straight into the diff, you just take off the axle cover and screw the pin into the diff.

[laflinslim]

Has the retoration happen yet? I have been watching this for quite some time. Please tell us what happen to the machine.

[neswizard26]

Hello,

What receiver/transmitter/controlle­r do you use with this? Will any 4 channel modern controller work?

[rctrucknut]

@neswizard26 You can make it work, will will have to replace the servos in the truck to fit your reciever.

[neswizard26]

@rctrucknut

Thank you very much for the response. I just figured out there was an "inbox" function on here. so a late reaply. cool video, and thank you sir!

[productionskak]

[laflinslim]

Is there a link to this truck after its restoration? I would love to see it.

[othur]

I want my Hi-Lux back!

[justpressgo]

Hi There,

Do you have a product code for this original model hilux. how can I search for this item? I keep ending up with the brusier.

They were @ AUS$700.00 in the mid '70's, you could buy them out of Singapore for @AUS$350.00 if you wend there for a holiday and brought it back as luggage.

[Airox2009]

It`s kit 5828

[CoonBabble]

how much would that run you back in the 80's or 90's when it was released?

[Tylerpwns666]

the intro to this is the same as sxephil's

[thedirkman]

can any one tell me if electric can go just as fast as petrol thanks

[headlesschicken123]

it depends on size scale batteries engines and the driver and much more

[cationmoted]

it can but depends on type of rc nad all the mods etc.

[PancakeFace22]

Yeah it depends on all of that stuff but electric can be made to go faster than nitro. The fastest rc cars (top speed record holders) are electric.

[ubmsw]

brushless cars are faster than the nitro ones.

[XShadowRejectsX]

yo, im gonna sound stupid, but what does brushless mean? im a rc car fan and dont know what that means

[ubmsw]

you can search it in wikipedia

[XShadowRejectsX]

thx

[AlmostCommon]

Electric motors have brushes that contact the electro magnets inside to induce magnetism. Brushless motors have no brushes

[XShadowRejectsX]

o i c cooL!

[JORDANIAN94]

-.-

[laflinslim]

@thedirkman Electric is now faster than gas. Its called brushless!!

[stobodort]

sweet truck!
