@traindude95 Yes they are. The only changes were to springs, oil, tires and inserts. Now for the M-chassis class Tamiya has gone to a premounted tire so that helps to eliminate one piece of the tuning puzzle.
hey there. I was trying to make my car to have the exact spec as yours. As I was looking for the red springs(4pcs), I came across a confusion. Which red springs did you use from, the #53440 or #53163?
@Dets6 I had to think about this one for a minute. I forgot that this came with friction shocks. I actually used the kit shocks from my TA-05 v2 since I used TRF shocks on there. 50598 I think is the P/N but the ones you listed will work very well.
I just bought the kit and in the midst of building it so I wish to upgrade where necessary. I heard you mentioned in the video that they suggested the oil damper but wasn't clear which model.will the red springs suits the #53619? tq
@Dets6 Yes, those shocks will work and those springs will fit right on there. I was trying to look up the stock 05 v2 Shock's P/N and the description wasn't obvious. I thought what I listed was the shock but the CVA mini shocks will work well. There's also the super-dialed TRF Aluminum shocks too :)
cheers! ive just won one of these good to know what im getting. any idea if i would be able to get different body styles for this chassis and where from?
Nice review. Next time you're in southern california, I'll shoot your video for you instead of having to shoot it yourself. I'm a pro and I'll do it for a model!
are all of these mods tcs mini legal?

Why not review the M06 since it's the latest release? The M05 is like 2 years years old.

@HorizonRCdotCom Does that explain the unevenly cut-off jeans shorts? haha not really.

@timbulb If they actually were cutoffs perhaps but they're not.
