Modding a TGX

[spetz]

How should I go about modding a TGX.Mk1 Tamiya?

So far I have put on it anti-swaybars, OS MAX 15 engine, header, and CVEC pipe mated to a 2 spd gearbox.

I am next thinking I will go with stiffer springs and shock oil.

What is next? I just want good handling and good power, not interested in expensive bits that only do minimal gains.

Thanks

I've just bought a TGX and it's on it's way from Japan now. I bought loads of hop-ups at the same time:

53242 Tamiya TGX Aluminum Engine Mount

53368 Tamiya TGX TG10 Aluminum Brake Arm

53207 Tamiya TGX S Steel Suspension Shaft

53377 Tamiya TGX Racing Chassis

53201 Tamiya TGX 2 Speed Transmission

53244 Tamiya TGX Carbon Propeller Shaft

53376 Tamiya TGX Carbon Upper Deck

53198 Tamiya TGX Universal Shaft Set

53245 Tamiya TGX Ball Differential

I also have some TRF fluorine dampers to put on it. To be honest, anything you can do to lighten the car will be a benefit, especially drive-train components. Quality, adjustable shocks are always good. The aluminium engine mount helps cool the engine, universal shafts are more efficient and don't fall out [].

I have had a tg10 now for about 3 years (Very similar to a TGX)

The main things needed are what you already have as well as a set of proper ball bearings if they didn't come with the kit, some stiffer springs and some good tyres!

most of the other bits are all for looks or have very little difference to anything.[]

also the fiberglass brake disc is much better than the original one..

have fun []
