I found this via eBay while I was looking for all the ups that I wanted to put on my first TA04 (a beat up #58290: Toyota MR-S TA04-SS). I was looking to spend somewhere in the region of up to £160 on all the upgrades, all of which were already on this chassis. Needless to say I saved a whole load of bills on it which I then spent on an Mtroniks Viper RVMax ESC and Tamiya 11/2 Motor. I even had a chassis protective sheet on it which I made myself. I then put in an Mtroniks 11/2 motor in it so that my M-04L could get the Tamiya motor. It was running until I did that as I've not got the snap connectors for the motor and I don't want to snip and splice the wires.
Update: It's in pieces as I've raided it for parts for my TA04 'D-Spec' project which uses the spare LW Carbon Reinforced Chassis that was originally from this kit. The good news is that I've now sorted out the wires on the motor and I'm awaiting a front one way unit for it. Apart from that there's only one last piece to upgrade and that's the center one way. Otherwise it's pretty much maxxed out and, once it's rebuilt, will be a speed racer with the short wheelbase and Carbon Effect Toyota MR-S body shell.
edit 23 Feb 2010:
I've now got this rebuilt into a TA04-R Tuned and a TA04-TRF Special.
