  1. I just noticed that the list of the part that will be aviable from Lego brick and pieces for the 42110 includes the wheels, the tyres and the olive green parts. EDIT: There are also the part for the 42100; it includes the new linear clutches, the 7*11 frames, and the longer actuator. However their price hurts... (it's equal to 9,44€ or 10,32 $)
  2. I always though that cars were made to roll on their wheels, not like that On a serious note, the cage is pretty resistant, considering it's lego parts.
  3. @Gray Gear You could do that: And you don't have to do it sideways, you can make it horizontal.
  4. From what I looked, this usage of the part was never made. I haven't found any model that used this side of the part to do a connection.
  5. Thanks and for the price I didn't knew that but it seems logic ;)
  6. The full bodywork is done. However, the price is already pretty high, without the use of the black pins :
  7. I started the digital building
  8. Is the car able to go in the lower deck despite the massive rear spoiler ?
  9. I'm sorry but I won't be able to provide more pictures as I already scraped it. For me it was just a super quick build done between other project with my leftover parts.
  10. Probably, however I don't understand how this website works (And I'm kind of a purist, but that's an other discussion) I will have to try that the next time I do a brick link order. (However it won't be until a long time as I recently bought 8466) Thanks
  11. The driver has an axle in the legs. It might be a bit dangerous
  12. As @Sariel pointed out in his review, I want to make it metallic green (However it might be a bit pricey )
  13. Wow, it's really an impressive build, that totally suit the 8081 set.
  14. It's been a long time without progress, as I had other things to do, however, I almost finished the car, it just need the rear seats. The bodywork is finished. (It's a bit dusty ) I tried to remove the visible blue pins as much as I can do, however I don't have enough of this part : so there is still some blue spot that I won't replace as these pins are pretty expensive if you want a lot of them. I also decorated the engine bay, as close as possible to the real one. I made a custom turbo-compressor that is on the left of the engine. On the right, the battery (the white block) is removable. I also made a dashboard. To make it look nice I had to use a lot of system parts, therefore the steering wheel isn't linked with the steering. I just need to make custom sticker for the gauges. Between the seats, there is a fake gear shifter and a fake handbrake. The metallic "radiator tile" (I don't now their real name) are supposed to look like the aerations. This project is almost finished, and I will make instructions using Stud.io. Hope you enjoy it, feel free to suggest me improvement or criticism.
  15. It seems pretty interesting so far, I just don't understand how the second parallel axle is driven as there is no visible gear that are connected to it from the fake engine.
  16. Yes I'm missing these a lot in my builds (I know it's a bit off-topic)
  17. I really like the bodywork of the car, you captured the shapes well. Despite the fact I don't like this livery, (even on the real car, for me it's feels like there is too much) it's, in my opinion a superb looking car. And as @Gray Gear said, I would also be glad to see the internal mechanism.
  18. @johnnym I removed the bottom brick and connected the bottom suspension arms with a 5L half beam. Concerning the rubber band I have to test, but it might be useful. They are indeed links on both sides of the ball joint.
  19. Here is my entry And a Link to it's dedicated topic Hope you like it. P.s I hope I'm allowed to post that here. if not I will remove it.
  20. Touc4nx's corp is proud to present you the remastered edition of 8081. This remastered edition include a totally new suspension setup, made of one rear live axle and independent front suspension with negative's caster angle. The springs orientation were kept as close as the original one. It means that the front spring ar mounted almost horizontally. The bodywork was modernized and has now a smoother look. Doors and trunk are openable. And the steering wheel is working. And Touc4nx's corp is glad to show you their last advertising :
  21. Here are the first pictures of my mod. For now I remade the suspension, while keeping the horizontal springs on the front. I also added a negative caster angle. However, as it is now it causes a lot of bump steer. concerning the rear axle it’s just a pseudo live axle that keeps the orientation of the original springs. For now I haven’t touched the bodywork at all so please don’t mind about strange Colors.
  22. Oh okay, so you made this step by step.
  23. I will also enter this just for fun even thought I don't have this set, the parts are not that hard to have and I have most of them.
  24. AWD means that all wheels are always powered whereas 4WD means that you have the rear wheels always powered and if you have difficulties to go over an obstacle, you have to activate something to power every wheel. By the way, it's a great mod, it make me think that it's the young sister of 42069
  25. It's a nice design ! Can I ask you how you rendered that ?
