HPI is proud to announce the Baja SS, a full-option Baja kit that you assemble yourself, loaded with tons of hop-ups that enhance the speed and power of the Baja 5B buggy, improve its durability even further, and provide totally sweet custom looks! 

The Baja SS follows the HPI innovation of upgraded Super Sport models that feature kit versions of popular HPI RTR models, with additional option parts added to enhance the enjoyment of your kit. A long list of option parts is included with the SS version of the Baja 5B. As you build the kit, you add in the options that come in the box, and add your own radio gear.

At the heart of the Baja SS is the Fuelie 26S, 26cc engine. With more displacement you get increased low-end grunt, more acceleration and huge top-end speed! To handle the extra horsepower of the Fuelie 26S, the drivetrain of the Baja SS is boosted with specially designed option parts that can handle the power increase.

Providing a boost of extra power is the Aluminium Tuned Pipe, which gives even more acceleration power to the Baja SS. To improve the handling of the Baja even further, a full set of new VVC/HD Baja shocks are included that improve handling on all types of terrain and are also heavy-duty to keep things secure on the track. A complete set of sway bars are included to keep your Baja SS planted in the curves and aid traction. To get more rear suspension travel at the rear, our designers have modified the rear shock tower brace - this gives you better rear traction and increased braking for lower lap times!

In addition to all the heavy duty options included with the kit, you get a tough, super-strong steering servo that is already equipped with the HP80584 Metal Gear Steering upgrade. This allows you to have the security of reliable, quick steering in all conditions. With a powerful servo controlling the steering, the Baja SS will track straight and true when you want it to, no matter how bumpy the running surface it.

Finally, we cant let the awesome good looks of the Baja SS go unannounced. Not only do you get the option Gunmetal Anodized Main Chassis, you get a full range of bright orange anodized aluminium 6061 T6 that are specific to the Baja SS. To top everything off, you get a clear bodyshell set that is totally ready for your custom paint scheme!
