NEW Porsche 911GT2 Club Sport TA02SW

[Pingman]

Painted the body today. Still have to paint the wing

WOW!

[Dojo Dave]

So, hop ups, bling by any other name... I've already decided that I will hop up the steering and front hubs, and then some turnbuckles, it comes with shielded bearings and I

have some sealed ones in my box... universals I'm on the fence. If I buy everything in my cart I'm doubling the cost of the car and I havent bought paint yet...lol

[volvotech]

Wait, it comes with bearings?

[XV Pilot]

Some hop-ups are well nigh essential for a TA-02 that is due to see any significant running. I would say bearings (if not already provided), propshaft and motor mount fall firmly into this category, with steering rack perhaps also worthy of mention.

[chickenman242tk]

got mine this afternoon can confirm no bearings supplied , bushings only. stella were selling a bearing kit for around the 10 dollar mark.

[Duvetdo]

Mine arrived today, just 6 days after ordering from Stella standard delivery. No probs with UK customs either. Very impressive. Ordered the bearings to come, too. Great looking kit.

[Dojo Dave]

I read my product description and it said, esc, 540 motor and shielded bearings...

[chickenman242tk]

I read that too ,i opened the box and checked the bags ,no bearings it also has bearings on the side of the box as a hop up and a torque tuned motor.....nah ill be right lol

[Dojo Dave]

Mine just arrived.

Resisting opening the box... just can't resist...oh I'll wait. ..................ok I waited 5 minutes.

Sealed in the box....with esc

[Nitomor]

Rrrrr, all these kits are making me twitch...must resist...but the euro is now over 1.4... Must resist....

[Duvetdo]

Resistance is futile.

[Dojo Dave]

So ordered a few bits today from Asia tees.... Drive shaft, bearings , front hubs...oh and tamiya tape, then ordered a few bits of the bay stealth body mounts and my color ( colour) of choice this time ps 23. Thinking about light buckets and exhausts.... Had thought about the Gulf racing Porsche colors but figured I wouldn't drive a car in those colors so why would I paint my new project that way..

I was thinking of the same livery Dave...was just researching decals on eBay

I will definitely do one of these if I have some time!

But first I will do one taisan Porsche just ordered the decals...!

And finishing my street Porsche as looking to complete the interior cockpit, rear view mirror and wipers.. Etc...

[SRB Bloke]

Nearly finished collecting hop ups. Waiting for just one more delivery.

Then I can start the build. But I need the wife to go out so I can retrieve the kit from the garage.

I think we've all been in your shoes!

[pininfarina]

I think we've all been in your shoes!

hahahaha......

we've all been sneaking in new kits.. and told the wife it's an old one...

[vtecboost]

What would be a good brushed motor set up for this chassis, or would brushless be a better set up?

It would be mostly just to have fun.

[pininfarina]

Maybe a sport tuned? Or something 23T depending how big is the circuit. Mine is about a sport tuned 27T?

[pininfarina]

I'm so happy today, my aunt from Hong Kong.... Text a photo...

Will be here tonight with these!!!

OMG!!! I think she snatch up the last two kits.....from RCmart...

oh boy!! So...going to fetch her!!

[Wandy]

So RC Mart and Stella are both sold out now. Not many on ebay either. It will be interesting to see if there is a second production run and what spares become available from the usual sources.

Typical people buying and buying kinda ruins it for those who just want 1 kit to actually build

[Wandy]

Tamico still have them available at a price similar to the HK sellers with a guarantee of no customs charges to pay.
