Does the Protoform Europa body fits on a FF03? Front seems to be too short. What are my options other than the civic and volks body? Thank you

I already have the alu steering rack. Steering is loose because upright supports are worn.

Hello everyone, I'm asking a question that has been asked probably a thousand times, but now it's my turn. The steeering of my TT01 is worn out and completely loose. I'm looking for an upgrade or a tip to fix it. Yeah racing has these two products: https://www.rcmart.com/yeah-racing-aluminum-front-upper-arm-for-tamiya-tt01-tt01e-adjustable-camber-function-ttr-125bu-00033915 https://www.rcmart.com/yeah-racing-aluminum-front-upper-arm-set-for-tamiya-tt-01-tt-01e-blue-tatt-036bu-00100159 the one with a single turnbuckle doesn't seem to be strong enough to me. Is there anything else available that is really worth it? Thanks

Hi everyone, I just got a deal on a TA03 but I don't know which version I have. it came with the PIAA Porsche 58215 box+manual and the Subaru McRae body 58210. I have the 50719 chasis but the Porsche manual say part # is 50745(short). I suppose the previous owner bought a new frame when he changed his body. Because I can't find a TA03R with the chasis I have. Main difference shows below the antenna support and battery location. Also, I can't use the long reinforcing plate, I need the z shaped plate. Please let me know if a version of the TA03 came factory with this part combination. By the way, I will need the E parts 50717. Thank you

The TRF201 project is finally completed. For those who were telling me the car would be underpowered with a Sport tuned, well it doesn't really matter since I rebuild it as a shelf queen. Enjoy! And thanks for the help.
-
thank you for the motor advice. This TRF201 rebuild is a nightmare. Ball diff is too large for the case, no bearing for the spur ???, mistakes in the plan. And the car I started with has been poorly modified, I just realized that I don't have the right rear hubs, let's see if they're hard to find.

I don't think the sticker is backwards because this pictures comes from internet and my motor has same decal orientation. If this motor is designed to turn in reverse, what is it supposed to be used for? If it spins in reverse, can I just turn the endbell by 180 deg. ? I just want the timing to be at 0 deg. and spin the right direction.

Hi everyone, I have two questions for you today. First, I bought a used TRF201 and started reassembling it this week. Then I realized that I was using the manual for the first version of the kit, the 42167. The version I have is the 42203, the ones with a few upgrades. Anybody knows if the second version came with a different manual ? Can I find it here? Second, I bought a used Sport tuned 27T motor that has adjustable timing, but there is no reference on the motor sticker for adjusting timing. The brushes were badly worn out so I guess it was ran with bad timing by previous owner. Do I have to adjust the screws of the endbell with the mounting screws? Any manual available? Thank you

So yo are telling me that I will have to polish the whole thing !!! How can I polish these hard to reach corners on the transmission case ? I think I will prefer to paint everything.

I used Turtle wax wheel cleaner, which is not exactly the same thing. It turned into a big mess. All my parts are now dark grey and the stains are still there, plus there is some kind of salt everywhere on the parts. I tried CLR and oven cleaner to remove this but it didn't work. HELP !!!

Hi everyone, I'm restoring a Super Champ during my holiday vacations. I would like to know if there is a way to clean the dark stains on the aluminium parts. Other than sandblasting, sanding or using a dremel tool. I alreagy tried bleach, vinegar, lacquer thinner and different dangerous soaps... Thank you

Hi everyone, I'm rebuilding a high lift and I removed the L3 part to make it lower as shown here: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=71104 The problem is that the axles are now so high that the shafts can't get short enough. The suspension can't decompress because the shafts are already at their shortest point. See here : http://picasaweb.google.ca/108854715952532...933488149281938 I'm unable to install the rear brackets. Anybody had this problem before and how can i fix it ??? Thank you

Hi everyone, I would like to know the brand of these shocks: http://picasaweb.google.ca/108854715952532...408315904350706 I got them on an old Clod with ESP chassis. Thank you

Looks like I have a Thorp diff. Thank you very much that's exactly what I was looking for. One more question, the parts that support the swing arms are in red plastic instead of a metal part. Is it another aftermarket part ??? Thank you
-
hi everyone, i just bought a used Frog with a Tamiya ball diff. I haven't notice the way it was assembled, not sure it was the right way... Does anybody has the plan for this ??? Thank you
-
This part # is for the Ford truck. Tamiya still makes this one but not the Chevy. I also need decals for a Stadium Blitzer...

I recently bought a new S-10 body for my 58146: Chevy S-10. When I received it, I realised that the decals were not included. I was so... Can anybody help me find these stickers ??? Thank you Tam GD

I have a friend who owns a vinyl cutter. I used vinyl maskings for all the sponsors. So the only stickers on the car are the ones supplied with the kit and the Mazda logo on the hood. "bonnet :-)))" I took the time to make it as a shelf queen but it's a runner. Thank you
