RC9. My Memory Having a RC Car. My No 6 RC. 1/10 - 1998 Kyosho GP Spider MK II

Quiet some times i not playing with my RC Car, due to work load. Some time i only take out for up grade, worm up the engine or clean it. Time past i am not up grade my Knowledge in RC Car world. One thing is, this hobby is expensive, No money to buy . My two RC Car getting older and difficult to gate spare parts, some times i will go around RC Shop in KL and Selangor looking for the spare parts, but couldn’t get any. I go back to the first shop where i buy my Spider RC to look for the spare parts, the owner say u already way back, that RC of my is a vintage, know a new model is out (V one SII) then he smile. My old spider parts still in good shape i manage to change a new engine and it still can move. This two spider just for practice for my driving skill, not for race. What I been told, every new RC Car can be last for 3 years in production and after 3 years no more production and spare parts. Today Both RC is my Vintage collection 

Due to interest in GP RC Car, 2007 I bought the third GP RC, a second hand Vintage RC Car from Taiwan for the price RM 121. Is a 1998 Kyosho 1/10 Spider MK II 4WD (Pro Kit), single speed, 3 belting. This RC Car almost same as the GP 10 Spider. It came without engine and body, so I buy a Kyosho GS11 engine for RM 100 and a hard body of QD Mitsubishi EVO. This is a discontinued production the new model is V One S Series.

For this units not much option parts i can get, Some i made it my self, the front and rear Stabilizer Bar, Side Belt Tension Post, Center Belt Tension Post, Disc Brake.The all 4 suspension did't have high adjustment, Ground clearance is high, drill it on the suspension arm and put a set screw. Full fitted with Ball Bearing, new Damper, change to Double Speed from my second spider, Alu servo arm, Fuel Filter, New engine, All round adjustable Turn Buckle for camber and toe. The thing i want most is the Instruction Manual for this RC. Searching in Web side only found exploded View. 2013 found the 1998 Kyosho Spider MK II Instruction Manual in Web.
