[MrJakethesanke]

What do you plug your lightsvon at

[DrCaptainAgentKazi]

[DrCaptainAgentKazi]

how do you take the shell off?

[a5e26]

i used to have a Herbie The Love Bug zip zap till i accidently left it outside and it got stolen

[tubofbologna]

i just sold 2 zip zap cars and a remote controller...for $10...guess i shouldve done my homework first lol

[pinoyMsuv11]

Ah I remember these I had a red rx-8 and a 1973 Aston martin vantage. lol I want them back! ;)

[SuperShamont]

yo you skiped pink

[Shrapnoid6280]

Nice collection and VERY nice modifications! Do your Escalades speakers work? Mine don't and I've been told that that was a frequent malfunction with that body kit.

Oh. By the way, the gear order for Zip Zaps is blue (12:1), green (9.86:1) and red (8.25:1) or Stock, Performance and Turbo.

I wish that they still made the blue 1.0 motor. It was really useful on curvy tracks.

[hubarlow]

How long do the zipzaps go after charge and can I modify it so it can use less battery power and run longer.

[ranger445577]

where do you get the led lights is it in a kit?

[Warthog32695]

hey i need help i just found my old zipzap, its the old ones not the xmodmini,

[itouchipodz1000]

[The2ndSamurai]

ballin

[SuperCarman12]

didnt the people that made zip zaps make the bodys bigger and then call them zmods?

[angelizquier1]

Radio shack is the company that makes zip zaps and xmods. xmods were a bit larger and far more customizable and upgradable than zip zaps. Also, the new version of the zip zap is about the same but is now called the xmod mini.

[SuperCarman12]

@angelizquier1 sorry for calling them a zmod i meant xmod but i did not know they made a new verison ill check them out

[robthatguyx]

hey man just a ? how much would a fully modded zap cost? like stait from nothin to as fast as u can go

[angelizquier1]

well zip zaps are no longer available through radio shack. You would have to find all your parts online. the zip zap itself would be anywhere from 10 to 20 bucks. Then you would have to buy upgrade parts which are only available in kits. Those can go for around 5 to 10 bucks. You would need motor upgrades and axle and transfer gear upgrades to fully mod it.

[robthatguyx]

@angelizquier1 do they turn motor/servo or magnet

[TheLarryBrown]

I like your voice and your delivery style...calm and pleasing. Looking at your stuff I get a Christmas mood. I like your mild accent. You could do voice over work or be a radio or TV personality like a weather man or something. I run Zip Zap SE only. I have about 12 plus some extra bodies and I have a track. I race them a lot with friends and family and they are way fun.

[karzygijose]

hey where can u buy these from

[karzygijose]

hey can u install leds plese anser back

[angelizquier1]

Those leds you see in my cars on this vid were installed by me. You need to have the connector for lights though.

[fatmat1701]

i got an 08 lancer and turned it in to a grand theft auto 4 car

[DJAmiotOnline]

I rember when i had a couple of these.... I like Xmods better though, personaly. There is a LOT more that you can do with them..

[super58173]

Found a cheepy flash game. They could go underwater in it. So, are these things waterproof, or short out like anything else?

[mrxmodmaster1]

yeah dont worry i wasnt freaked out just wanted to know

[mrxmodmaster1]

hey dude are you on tinyrc.com cause i saw pictures of the exact same cars.

[angelizquier1]

yes, dont be freaked out lol they are my cars. I made that post a while back.

[omgsean1]

[ylerspina]

[purplelambo95]

i need one of those gears that come in one of the kits because i threw away my zip zaps and bought another little car that can only be upgraded by the gear so i'm a little screwed

[DannyGWarrior]

Oh man I remember Zip Zaps, ahahah I wonder if I still have mine that I bought 7 years ago, lmao I think I had the charger, yenko, mitusbishi Evo, eclipse, all 4 from 2 Fast 2 Furious, 350Z and some other one. Man I wasted alot of money as a kid.

[mugaMeL]

[nikolaisaskator]

HOW DO YOU MAKE AN EXHAUST TIP??!!

thanks.

[angelizquier1]

Mine is made of a custom chrome plastic but you can also try Q tips man they look good too just get the ones with the hollow stick and paint them.

[davidevgen]

the only problem with the nx moter is that it drains the battery fast

[davidevgen]

when i found out about theses i bought all of the parts and the car awesome stuff!. the best mods i put togather is the wide tire with the NX moter and the red gear. i think it can get a speed of at least 7 mph i think

[IWFJK]

in my area the local radia shak sells these things big time as in you can get every kind of wheels engines rims accecories chassis and everything im lucky

[trainboy414]

where did you get the nsx?

[davidevgen]

i think it comes with the need for speed set

[trainboy414]

ok thank you

[davidevgen]

no problem

[FORD698]

HEY, wount think you would be watching this stuff about zipzaps, but i seen you and wanted to say srry for being an ass =P

[trainboy414]

[coondogtheman1234]

I have 2 of these a car and a monster truck which I still have but i dont know where it is at the moment I have an off brand mini RC tank and skateboard RC but I took off the sk8board b/c it was lame. I ran the shot out of all these and wore them out. the charger for the RS zipzap broke it wouldnt charge anymore so I rigged something to charge it. I have other RC vehicles a battletank a hummer a truck and a jet ski.

[superchris445]

[PaperFoldingPenguin]

[Coast94]

[DialgaRules24]

hey, i have several zipzaps but the new ones don't have the area for the lights to hook up. do you know where i can get say, 3 chassis' with the light hookup?

[angelizquier1]

The only place you might get lucky finding these is ebay.

[DialgaRules24]

yeah, i got one but when it got here, the chassis had nothing in the back and the thing was glued 2gether

[Timesplitter4ever]

radioshack has a few, including packages filled with all sorts of performance upgrades (motors, tires, etc.)

[pimpughetto]

hey where did you buy the decals from I want to get some for my Zip Zap

[angelizquier1]

the dacals came with a tunner upgrade kit.

[rkdude7]

[bankai865]

[pecansandie9596]

[eddie265953lop]

hey man sweet collection does the purple motor make a big difrence

[angelizquier1]

It makes a big difference when you upgrade from the stock motor.

[oscarthebest123]

yea but how do i open the car (bumblebee)because i got it today and i don't know how to open it and i don't want to brake it or damage it can u help me or tell me how??

[oscarthebest123]

[angelizquier1]

the best motor is the purple nitrous express motor.

[oscarthebest123]

man i was wondering if i could put a better motor on the bumblebee zipzap??

[superfreakinawesome8]

is threre anywhere else i can get the nx motor

[dimidimidimi18]

where do you plug the cable for the lights??please answer..

[angelizquier1]

If you dont know where to plug in the lights then obviously you dont own the zip zap SE. The lights are only available with zip zap SE and XMOD zip zaps.

[sasitagaanejshi567]

sweet zipzaps dude

[KilledCookie]

We need a nitro-powered zipzap.

[guitarplayer3080]

ill give u $250 for all of ur zip zaps

[Golem7]

well I only have one zip zap and the rest are just zip zap car bodies and lots of parts.

[brenanabread]

whats the website to get zip zap equipent

[Golem7]

there is no official web site that supplies parts for zip zap but ebay works fine for me. That is where ive purchased all of my parts and upgrade kits.

[pyrotek13579]

is there actually a racing/competition class event for zip zaps?

[DEATHPONYDEATH666]

sick azz muffler!

[KCowbot620]

could you tell me what you used to make the muffler cause i have a couple zip zaps and i would like to do that to one

[angelizquier1]

I wish I could tell you how to do it but that muffler is just some random piece of plastic i came across and got the idea of a muffler.

[xxxMASTERxCHIEFxxx]

hey i did that to a 1:28 scale model car i got a mini fooye led pencil and i took out the back and cut it about an inch long and where it hold the eraser looks like a street muffler and i painted it crome style if you want a vid then tell me

[RealPunkHuntr]

[EnmanuelTX]

[Preytor13]

awesome vid, your bodies look so cool man

I had some zip-zaps, but they've been sitting in the closet for the past 2 years. Ur vid renewed my interest in them! :)

[angelizquier1]

lol yeah same here. Mine were just sitting around untill i started trying to change the looks of the bodies and they turned out great then i just modified it for top performance you should check out my other zip zap vid. I show my zip zap doing top speed

[karlosrolero]

[bakuking777]

[bmad222]

CHECK OUT MY COLLECTION ITS TIGHT!!!

[tyenan]

dude i will totally buy one of you please

[TaterThao]

I don't know why but I love mini RC racers

[boomy818]

omg tape???? 4 tints!!

get spray paint and spray the inside

[angelizquier1]

why do that and risk painting the wrong parts. See, with tape it looks darker and is easier than paint, its not messy and you can always remove it when ever you want.

[bmad222]

i think zip zaps are better than those microsizers

[BrandonMotoxXx]

ive got a limited edition mustang cobra 5,000 its kick ass i couldnt find it for a long time

[mikalrox]

how do u get the connection from the headlights onto the frame? Because my zipzap doesnt have the thing where u plug in the cord.

[jagametips]

u can only use the headlights with zipzaps SE. you could rip out the lights to save weight or get an se!

[lexporschcar]

hi I'm from Greece. ur collection is AWESOME. I'm a collector too but I only have 3, mustang SVT cobra, nissan 350Z and ford ranger.

[rectal89]

hey zk whats up man, i just wanted to know if i can actually remove the barricade body off my zip zap and modify it with the upgrade kit i purchased. also another thing, do u know if theres anybody selling the optimus prime semi rig ? . . . 49 mhz though. thanks and plz respond.

[bmad222]

i have a optimus prime if u wnt to buy just get back to me

[lilserb123]

where do u buy engines

[angelizquier1]

well depending on where you live you might find some at your local radio shack but if not theres always ebay wich is where i buy most of my stuff

[koroglu12]

how u put in the headlights? and how dose it hook up to the car? can u plz make a vid of it?

[angelizquier1]

it would be difficult for me to make a vid of it as i would have to remove the lights and put them back on they are glued to the cars and its simple to add headlights to any car that doesnt have any you just have to have the zip zaps SE that has the connection for the light harnest and to add fog lights you just solder the lights to the original lights with the correct polarity

[j3rd4n2k8]

where did you get the car from and all the bits you have.

[angelizquier1]

i got the car form radio shack for like 10 bucks and all the other stuff came in upgrade kits i found on ebay and some in radio shack

[PSPking1575]

[HoBoFiL96]
