  1. Hi!

    I have two mint bodysets for sale, i have had a number of interested people but somehow an agreement havent been made.

    It´s now up on the trades for the last time i hope.

    Before i talk about the stuff i would appreciate if you wont give me any "offers" or silly bids. I put a really good price on these parts now. i do combine shipping so if you buy them both i charge shipping for one.

    I only accepts paypal and ships worldwide at cost. 50USD insured with trackinginformation.

    I only sell to a verified TC member.

    For contact email me at: tjompalompa@hotmail.com

    Porsche 934 Turbo rsr bodyset in mint condition, this kit is in an awesome condition and all the parts are in its plastic bags, three decalsheets and they are also mint!

    The bodyset is in one of the rarest colors RED!

    I now put a price of 450USD for this beauty and i also include shipping in this price. This is also on ebay at the moment but i will close the auction early, the price is higher on the bay.

  2. This is what i found a couple of days ago on a Swedish auctionsite, a mint new in box Porsche rsr bodyset 58001 complete with everything. The body has the ultrarare color red. I probably will sell this in the future to finance something else.

  4. Hi All,

    hopefully someone can help me with my question :lol: When braking or turning into a corner my car looses back end traction and tries to 'swap ends'. making it very difficult to enter a corner and not spin out. Also coming out of corners the car tends to lose traction and again 'swap ends' or simply does a donut. I can drive it if I'm very slow but its getting frustrating.

    I recently fitted Kazan Ceramic bearings to my Merc C-11 diff would this cause any issues?

    I use normal sponge tyres (no additive) and drive on car park bitumen which is smooth by carpark standards

    Novak XBR Sport Brushless 13.5 esc/ motor combo. 104 tooth Spur/ 21 tooth Pinion

    Also to adjust the diff I'm holding the Diff side wheel in one hand and trying to turn the Spur gear with my thumb (same hand), when the spur is really hard to move with my thumb I'm assuming this is tight enough? Anything else I should be looking for?

    Cheers :lol:

    Hello!

    I have tried several cars with that kind of chassis, i have theese suggestions for you:

    Use tiretraction on the rear 30min before racing.

    Use a bigger wing that can provide some real downforce, buy a wing from kyosho lazer zx-5.

    when you have don this you can laborate with the damper and make it a little bit softer, use another spring and maybe some other damperfluid.

    It is also important to have the right rideheight, approx 4-5mm above the ground, the rear should be higher up than the front.

    If you do theese mods i can assure that you will have a better car! but you may loose steering also, use tractioncompound in front if the steering will disapear.

  6. once upon a time, approx 13years ago i was marshall on a buggyrace when something went really wrong, i was running and jumping when my left kneecap didnt managed to hold up my bodyweight and snapped, that resulted in three fractures in the knee and five titanium screws, i couldnt walk on that knee for a total of 5 months. and still after 13 years the knee aint okey, i guess it will never be....and for your notice 22 stitches...

  8. Sorry, I have to correct the previous poster, because he is wrong. A ball diff can be used with the TTC slipper on the Astute, but not many people know about it.

    I helped a friend to do this in the early nineties, and you end up with quite a nice diff/gearbox combo.

    I found out that the front one/way gear fron a manta ray/top force fits just perfectly on the super astute main shaft, after some work on it. It has exactly the same hexagonal mounting shape.

    You just have to carefully remove some of the material from the front of the oneway gear on the side where the flange is (about 5-6 mm), but when that is done, you can use super astute parts for everything, except of course the ball diff (astute), layshaft gear (our custom cut oneway gear) and idler gear (astute). It's the best of both worlds really, the super astute gears are extremely weak when gravel and stuff enters the gear case, and the astute ball diff is a good combo with the super astute slipper.

    There ya go, a nice Astute mod. Try it out!

    Hi mate! thanks for posting this "impossible" answer, i was happy back in the days when you build the tranny for me, it could be abused over and over...

    i have done a thread about this modification and could be seen here: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?...t=0#entry239481

    And the word Impossible is not in my dictionary...GENIUS! SIMPLY GENIUS!

  9. Hello everyone!

    I want to thank "pUs" for this great idea when i was younger and my gearset for my super astute didnt manage to stand up for the amazing power of my Parma motor.

    I will post text and pictures of the different steps for the build, and also a needed partslist.

    Idea: You are sitting in your hobbyroom and your gears on the super astute is totally killed after last race (and you want a balldiff too), You dont want to buy gearset after gearset anymore, you are feed up...okey take a deep breath and follow theese simple steps.

    This is what you will need:

    1. Super Astute transmission complete

    2. gearset from Astute and a complete ball differential.

    3. Manta ray/top force/evolution 16T gear (from the torque splitter) torque splitter set has nr: 53071 and can be found on ebay.

    Step one:

    Use the gearbox from the super astute, the only gear you will keep from the super Astute is the spurgear.

    Remove the other gears and install the ball differential and the long gear from the regular Astute.

    Now to the torque splitter 16 T gear, remove aprox 4mm of the gear in length, it is very important that you do it on the proper side, you can see that the gear are hexagonal on one side and will fit perfectly on the sliiperclutch axle.

    Make sure the axle will go thru the gearbox and the white whasher and c clips will fit properly, if it doesnt fit just remove some more material on the 16T torque splitter gear. take it slowly.

    Here is some pics and instructions

    Pic 1.

    The Super astute gearbox is now fitted with ball differential and the long gear from a regular astute.

    7xdk3ud.jpg

    Here you have a pic on the hexagonal 16T torquesplitter gear.

    879vpmb.jpg

    Gear and and the slipperclutch/spurgear axle

    6lvmu4n.jpg

    Gear mounted on the axle, this gear is too long for correct fit and need some trim. remove a couple of mm at each time, it is very important that you dont trim to much on it.

    6s86tk1.jpg

    Here you can see clearly that the axle is to short and you need to remove some material on the 16T gear.

    8flp0kn.jpg

    this picture shows the little 16T gear trimmed and mounted on the spurgearaxle.

    8eh9x10.jpg

    Now you are ready to go racing with the best gearbox ever on your astute/super astute, dont forget the c-clips on the spurgear axle and use proper pinions from the super astute!!

    RIDE ON!

  10. Hello!

    I was thinking to sell my Team associated RC10 buggy, the kit is NIB and the first car of them all with the narrow arms. kit is in very good condition, how much is it worth to be realistic?

    happy for answer!

    regards

    Tomas

  11.  Hello!

    Recently bought the new mamba max combo 7700 to try out in my associated RC10l pan car, i feeded the motor with a 3s lipo battery 11.1volts, the motor was recommended for 2s lipo 7.4 volt but this was the only battery my local hobbyshop had....so i bought it, the car performed very well, i have intended to run it outside on a big road in the summer....but on my local racetrack i had barely full throttle...wheelspins on the straights..;) the track i raced on will host the european championship in 1/12 scale in april so its quite big..

    here is the movie:

    ENJOY!
