    How do you ship from USA to Thailand? I'm thinking you will have to make a list up and someone from here to gather it all up and Bulk ship it or most of small parts. Shipping is going to be the hardest part. Make up your list and post it, I'm sure we can do some gathering.

    That is some car you have there! Anyway you could do a walk around video?

    I agree with they use what they have. I wud think putting the Toy\Lexus engine is a matter of what u have or can come by relatively easy. There's also a matter of cost; cost dictates to a great degree what most of us do in this hobby and most other things in life. Whoever put that setup in, Im sure it took some mech\tech skills to install. Im sure it was'nt bolt in deal. I don't have any issues with it, creative expression is what this hobby is about. Since I've been on this forum I have seen quite-a-bit of creativity.
