(the display, not the cars.)

 

That's a nice setup you have there, I'd like something similar except I have about 40-45 cars I'd like to display, but I just don't have room for a big cabinet like that. Except I'd like a mirror at the back with some sort of LED lighting on each shelf to get a good clear '360 degree' view of all of the models

Being a Battlefield 4 player and TheRa1der Subscriber on YT i know that guy too well hahaha

I'd almost feel sorry for the guy were it not for all the lies he spouted during that interview with JackFrags. GG DICE, GG.

[RobikV3]

Yeah but they did the same with BF3 so not a surprise really BF4 though, 6 months and still nothing important fixed in the game *cough* netcode *cough*

What's the average price you guys pay for your scale cars? I need more for a proper display.

[The Compensator]

Depends on the scale, but since I don't want anything worse than Minichamps or AutoART, well, more than 80 bucks for sure (1/18). Haven't bought a diecast for a long long time, though...

What Excitedbenzbutownsbmws said ^ Depends greatly on the size and manufacturer.

 

The last model I bought, a 1/43 Ferrari F12 cost $168 AUD, or approx. £93, one before that was a 1/43 Supra which (admittedly I got for pretty cheap) was $47 AUD. Last 1/18 I bought a few weeks ago was an Autoart R32 GTR which was only $175 AUD. The most I've ever paid for a 1/43 was around $190 AUD and $400 for a 1/18. Most of my 1/43's tend to be around the $80-$100 AUD price bracket.

 

Kyosho, Tamiya, Autoart, Minichamps, Ebbro, Hot Wheels, Fujimi etc. all make pretty good 1/43 models for pretty cheap in the $25-80 range. Then you start to go up into the mid-market range, HPI, Autoart Signature series, Spark which are around the $70-160 mark. Then you go up into the high-end, low production number brands, like BBR, Peako, Looksmart, Technomodel which are generally $160+

Can't remember if you're meant to post your own photos rather than images off the internet, but the stuff is in a box at the moment (no I didn't read the first post).

 

I've got a knocking noise from both front corners, so with the control arm rear bushes being mentioned a lot with my symptoms I bought these. Suspension overhaul to come at some point in the future anyway:

 

Old wiper blades started to get on my nerves, so I bought some genuine BMW wiper blades:

 

This was a month ago, car came with the service book, but no manuals, so I sorted that out with this:

[The Compensator]

Oh, what do we here? :mhmm:

 

 

Wait... what? :oook:

 

 

Phew! :sohot:

 

 

Pads, pads everywhere. :panic:

And then I realized I forgot to order a bottle of isopropylalcohol, leather cleaner and protector and a wheel brush. :greet:

Lol :ym:

[GTAMADDOG]

I've got those ValetPro brushes. I don't have any of the other stuff though. Need to invest in a DA polisher at some point.

[The Compensator]

Can't imagine working without them to be honest.

Ain't nobody got money for that. :(

[RobikV3]

Yeah everything is so expensive here :(

[iLLGT3]

I'd like to upgrade the fans & put 2 on the top of the case as well as an exhaust because my exhaust right now is the H80i.

Fans on top of the rig? So what you basically want to build is a Porsche 917 engine, am I right?

 

[calster17]

Ah, nothing like an air cooled flat 12!

I loved my Nokia Lumia 800, twas a great, tough phone. But the slow, glitchy OS was a bit of a let down, I love the look of Windows Phone 7.8 but it seemed to do some weird stuff sometimes. Win phone 8 is probably a lot better, but I always wanted an iPhone...
