Easily, front driveshafts, hubs, servo and linkage all fit onto the rear axle, suitable tx and rx. Could be the next mod on my old one 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Kpowell911 Posted June 7, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2023 A TT02 Chassis cover as Im actually using my TT02 this time. I also noticed Carson do a reasonably priced Tamiya Bag, similar to the old school Beatties bags you could get as a kid! So picked one up! Shout out to TTP for the excellent service as usual! Now as Ive said before, my Dads a comic collector, and he has always lived by one mantra when collecting. First just obtain the product you want. Regardless of condition. Just obtain it. You can still look for a better one, but first of all, get it. So. As we know Ive recently decided to relive my youth, and pick up the Tamiya's I wanted as kid. Combining this with Gran Turismo 3. This isnt the rarest or most expensive on my list of JGTCs, the R34's take that award, but this is the one I wanted most. Ideally on a TA02W, but for now I have the worst condtion TL-01 TOMs Supra. Ive also already got a slightly better one on the way that I won last night 🙄 For now Ill make one up using the until I find a MINT TA02 Variant. I also got a Manual for my TL-01 Focus. Cause I forgot I already had it.... 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More impressed with the delivery than anything - £10.51 and it took 4 days to arrive with no customs. Pure luck I never know? On the downside it was a four month pre order wait 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost ordered from there recently due to the price but decided I would probably have to pay import duty due to the size of the package and ended up buying from AliExpress instead.

For example the Tl01 chasiss was about £5 landed Vs £10 + shipping from most UK shops so it's not too bad! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m very surprised at the quality and strength of the cage to be honest even in its in built state in the picture the rig is heavy and I don’t have any worries about picking it up from the cage it’s self feels very sturdy scale appearance wise would be nice to be a bit thicker but otherwise very good looking don’t think you’ll be disappointed 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
