Dave, the old Mielke MCD tuned pipe is another one to look out for, they were cheap new so should be peanuts for a used one. Guy Hayward used one in his V4 at the last Sweetnap national.



Do you need to change the stock V4 axles/hubs for the HPI Baja ones to mount the Elcon wheels? Both you and Jason are welcome to try my Ultimate wheels/KCR (medium) multispikes at the next national. I also have a set of used (once I think) and new step studs that you can have, they are the red (hard) compound and a nightmare to get on the wheels....

hi clive

not seen you at sweetnap for a while ?

yes you will need the baja wheel hex's , richard ran the Ultimate wheels on his v4 the weekend and they rub the rear hubs , but i dont know if he turned the top bolt round the other way

his answer :

hallo max
voor 75,00 pond stuur ik hem naar hem op.
laat me even weten wat hij wil.
als we een deal hebben mag hij me wel mailen.
dan zal ik hem mijn gegevens wel door mailen.
mij engels is niet zo best maar we zullen er wel uitkomen.
ik hoor het wel.
mvg ronald

He said he wants 75 pound shipped to you. If you agree , you can mail him directly at his email adress   rocketronny@hotmail.nl  to close the deal.

Succes.

Hi guys, don't mean to hijack this thread. But I'm unable to start my own thread yet.

Couple of Q's:

A - Are the pipes for V3 and V4 same manifold lengths?

B - Anyone seen another one of these sexy VRC pipes for sale? Especially the Pro Pipe?


Cheers
