Champ85 609 Posted June 21, 2013 Wait.. friction dampers? I would have guessed oil. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfdogstinkus 1893 Posted June 21, 2013 Wait.. friction dampers? I would have guessed oil. In the specs, it does say oil filled cva's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beefmuffin 1156 Posted July 13, 2013 OK so this CLEARLY shows that the NOVA Fox comes with OIL dampers and not friction dampers as had been misreported on the tamiyausa.com website. http://www.tamiya.de/CommonFiles/Dickie-Tamiya/PDM_Products/Tamiya/300058577/300058577_Bauanleitung.pdf 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beefmuffin 1156 Posted July 13, 2013 Unless anyone was unaware, the manual is now available to download from www.tamiyausa.com that's great! thanks for that... very happy about the oil shocks and to see so many parts identical. not too impressed with the steering setup... might use an old setup if/when i build a nova.

Nice to have it confirmed though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gt6++ 29 Posted July 15, 2013 Is the lower price of the Fox (when compared to the wild one) the result of a weakening yen?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matman 1499 Posted July 16, 2013 Is the lower price of the Fox (when compared to the wild one) the result of a weakening yen??Not sure , But i was thinking that the RC-10 is coming & maybe Mr T has dropped the price to get it out there ?. Then again , there is not much to a fox . But at the end of the day , I don't care !! . It's cheap / good price , so i can get 4 or 5 of them . Wish the Aus $ didn't drop as it would he been cheaper for me to buy . HAHA !! . Bring on thrusday ! ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigSteve 149 Posted July 18, 2013 Just ordered mine Are they in stock now. Waiting for UK stock for mine lol. I managed to bag an original swaybar/stabalizer off the bay for 42, can't decide weather to fit it to my current fox runner or keep it for the Nova Fox which is also going to be a runner. Steve.
