Same as Manta or Top Force Evo? Or did you want to say you bought the old Aluminum pressure plate kits from Tamiya, that are so hard to find today?
I bought some alloy parts that a guy on FB makes - gear box strengthener and rear alloy cover
custom RC parts
he featured on Tamiya legends (glen’s TF build)

Then I kindly ask Problemchild to umpack the diffs?
Hopefully not packed away for Birthday?

My black Clod kit has both styles included, I’ll be using the one your chasing, but if anyone has used the linked one, you should be able to find the original style
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/373578554476
but for a few £ more you should get the whole tree of parts
will try and find

looking for the bonnet chrome engine attachment for the original cold buster, not sure exactly what its called! must be in good unmarked condition.
Sorry you are 100% correct - that’s not the right part - my bad

The superclod just has a spacer unit (I’m pretty sure)
otherwise exactly the same
I bought a modern set for my 2 x refurb

Thank you for the link my man!
Found another set on Yahoo Japan auctions.
Think there's a couple more sets on there if anyone else you know is having trouble finding them
I got mine from tony Tamiya on eBay
they weren’t expensive - just had to wait for delivery

Drop @Xeostar a PM and he will let everyone know when he does a new run

Joanne at Fusion told me that Tamiya UK have now got their stock and my order is now being processed. The site is still down though, meaning that Fusion cannot process any new order checkouts online and everything has to go via the telephone. Proper retro.
Let’s hope Modelsport get their quota

I’m still waiting for any info from Modelsport about my topforce evo I ordered in Jan

Fake/clone Tamiya Branded Kit?

Oooh this is exciting
is Rosemead, CA the eBay global shipping programme centre or something like that?
Seems weird but fun
my mate sent me a package from hkg via China post with a Tamiya violet racer in. Tracking was awful and said in transit until 2 months later he raised a complaint and it turned up 2 days later 🤯
almost like someone was keeping it to see if I remembered about it
