Hey guys, you might remember my initial build back last year from this thread:
http://www.x-h2o.com/index.php?threads/2016-maxx-w-tpe-build.172400/
But now, its Yellow!
In the last year I did a total 9.8 hours on the hull. Pretty poor, i know. Long story short, I sold my TPE to move on to something different. Fun fact, you might have seen this photo floating around the internet:
Yeah, that's got my old TPE in it. The bloke who bought it off me lost it for a week or so on the Gold Coast on the ocean floor. He did retrieve it (25 meters down) although i think its mostly a write off.
Anyway, i have chosen to jump ship and give the ET1107 a crack. My ET arrived in Australia about 2 days ago and i thought i would share the new buildup since the ski as it sits right now is essentially bare again. Upon first inspection, the engine is a piece of art. Very nice finish, very visually appealing.
From last time i wrote on here, i have not installed ATP TS2 TL. I sheared my 62T flywheel in half in the 964 so i decided to go TL. Dad and i instantly got cracking in the shed (we are impatient) and bolted the TNT v2 mani on and installed all front cover hardware.
We have both Full Spec 49's and MAXX 50's to try on the engine. Right now we decided to try the Full Spec 49's first. How good does it look!
This photo is as of today and how it sits.
I cannot thank @E-Tech for his service and he is very helpful. I cant wait to get this bad boy on the water.
The build up this time will entail things like review/installation of 701 IND 155mm Trim, Review of ET1107 and a little bit of a tray mod.
Enjoy!
