I had never planned on making a build thread when I purchased my GPII in early 2014. I had planned on keeping it stock, but I can never leave well enough alone. One mod led the next and before you know it, things got out of control. I would like to say that it's done, but lets be honest, it will never be done. I figured it was time to make this thread to document what I have done to it, to help inspire others with their builds, and to thank all of those whom have helped me with it.

Everyone on this forum!

 

Nicely done. That's a beautiful looking GP and I bet a blast on the road.

 

Great looking car!

 

That looks like one fast slot car. Nice work!

 

I want one, I always wanted a GP2. These wheels compliment the R56 MCS.

On another note those wheels look similar to...

 

Looks like it came out well, great job! If I can ask what led you to going with the DT end links vs some of the others?

 

Thanks everyone for the compliments. It definitely handles like a slot car! As for the endlinks, I had Detroit Tuned install all of my new suspension components so it only made sense. They are really nice endlinks and Chad and Nick did an amazing job on everything. It was definitely worth the 4.5 hour drive through Canada from Buffalo.

 

How do you like the LED foglights/DRL? Any good photos of them?

 

Very nice…

 

The DRL's are amazing. I don't have any pictures of them but you can find some online. They are seriously bright.

 

Makes sense, thanks.

 

Well done
