t3garett 268 Posted November 17, 2018 As some of you may know I ve started collecting kyoshos. After completing my ta04 collection my avante collection and astute collection I ve started on kyoshos. So here is my first fully restored functional fully complete runner : a kyosho lazer zx. I managed to buy 3 lazers here are two as I received them : 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

t3garett 268 Posted November 17, 2018 As I haven t finished my lazer zx repro body and am still awaiting stickers I ve brought back to life an orginal lazer zx-r body and wing to run on the car. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capucine 53 Posted November 17, 2018 Excellent job and quality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yalson 514 Posted November 17, 2018 Nice looking chassis. And I like the ZX-R shell, as the original ZX shell was a bit dumpy looking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yalson 514 Posted November 17, 2018 I like the front tyres, too. Do you know what they are called and who makes them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
t3garett 268 Posted November 17, 2018 Thanks for your encouragements ! Yep the zxr body does look nice but it will be going on the real zxr chassis I m building. The zx chassis will have the zx body and wing as soon as I finish painting. The wheels are the original zxr and will go on the zxr chassis as soon as I source some tires for my zx wheels. I have no idea about the tires ???? They were on the wheels when I got them but I must admit they look cool and they are still nice and soft so I ll be looking for some more myself, if I find some I ll let you know. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
t3garett 268 Posted November 18, 2018 So while waiting for more lazer parts I thought I d get started on this : I manages to acquire this nib kyosho pureten ep spider and I plan running it. Should be a worthy comparison with my tamiya ta04 fleet. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Klausen 1197 Posted November 18, 2018 Nice Lazer zx. Have been bidden by the Kyosho bug too, and recently completed the 6 Optima Mids, so wonder if it is time for the Lazers too for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you know what they are called and who makes them? i think the wheels and tires are of the hobbyking quanum vandal https://hobbyking.com/en_us/quanum-vandal-1-10-4wd-electric-racing-buggy-arr.html 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
