TA03 FRP chassis help needed

[brisbaneracer 0]

Hey everyone, I bought the Tamiya FRP chassis plates second hand on ebay, there are no battery mounting parts, just the two plates,  so i also bought a new carbon battery mount set on ebay. I havent got the parts in the mail yet, but i think i need more parts to mount the battery?? do i need to buy SP-703 TA03 PRO J Parts (battery holder)? thanks everyone your help is very appreciated

what you need to look for actually is just that, SP-703. (I got 1 last set, but this is my spare). Comes with the front bulkhead mount which doubles as the steering belcranks mount.

The carbon battery mount set is only used when you're mounting side by side packs, then again I'd recomend shrink-wrapping the packs as this mount use aluminium stand-offs. You use glass-tape to secure the pack with this set.

If you want to upgrade to carbon chassis, let me know, AFAIK my local distributor still have 1 last set of NIP TA03R carbon plates in stock. This way you can try out the 03R config if you like.

Thanks allot irenL!, im clear on what i need now. i should not have bought the carbon battery plate then as i mainly use stick packs., oh well it was cheap.

 I will hold off on the TA03R carbon chassis, i am going to use this beast for drifting and i hear the front configuration is the one to have.

thanks again mate.
