[redsuns03]

[Halomotionex]

Ok geniuses of the TT01 world who need answers to get parts allow me to introduce you to the parts our friend here has. His carbon chassis was a conversion kit from 3 racing which is one of the top of the line hop up companies and It will include the motor mount and the upper deck and some screws. His aluminum parts were also from 3 racing but some may be from Yeah racing or X SPEDE racing. You must have most of the original TT01 parts for this conversion but one thing that may be a problem for

[sharingan180185]

Hi I see you dont use bodymount holes! Please can you tell me how you fixed the body on the chassis?

I have the same RX-7 body, please help me ;D I dont wanna bodyholes anymore!

[thewhitewill]

@sharingan180185 Hi there i made my own mounts from plastic and hold the body on with velcro it works fine just took a bit of work to get the body height right. hope this helps.

[sharingan180185]

@thewhitewill can you give me more tips please, coz I dont know what kind of plastic parts you use, you would help me alot, really bodymount holes are so damn ugly :(

[thewhitewill]

@sharingan180185 Hard to explan but they are screwed the the origanal post holes, its just a bit of old pvc i had the only hard bit is the hight of the shell.

[icMarkycuh]

@sharingan180185 if u look at his vid on 3:24 he has this thing that sticks in his body. if that helps u

[KingDudi16]

Doesn't your car get heavier with metal parts rather than plastic or just carbon?

[thewhitewill]

@KingDudi16 I just weighed mine and a standard TT01 and it was only 200 grams more. Not to bad really.

[fatmanimpreza]

sick chasie gay every thing else brushed? gay!

[supersanchez1991]

hi i just but a tt01 tamiya nissan silvia but i want to upgrade the motor to go faster which will be a good motor a fast motor?

[thewhitewill]

@supersanchez1991 for spped you shoud get a brushless upgrade mine is only a tuned stock but its more than enought for me.

[siddhu911]

[thewhitewill]

@siddhu911 Sorry not really mine seem ok just had a look as don't use the car much now but they seem ok sorry i can't be more help.

[tt01dwifta]

hahaha velcro body holder......noob

[thewhitewill]

can you tell me what you mean by this comment?

Is there a better way to hold the body on without messing up to look of the car?

[jmpatinhas15]

i totally agree with you, that little sticks just ruin the car

[MrDeathmetla]

i got a TT01 too but my gears broke and im buying al lot of stuff to keep making him better

[sKuLLcAndy7017]

how can hold the body on the car?

[GARETH012005]

@sKuLLcAndy7017 if you look closely he's used velcro,so that the body posts don't ruin the lines of the body.

[sKuLLcAndy7017]

@GARETH012005 ohw, i see now, nice

[hotstarz89]

whr u buy the RACING battery strappers?

link?

[thewhitewill]

@hotstarz89 it came with the kit from ebay.

[702LTR450]

I like these things. its liek a model car you can play with.

[RCDr1ft]

What type of motor is that?

Cheers, RC!!!

[richycreations]

hey man i got a very similar set up on my tt01d and im doing all the graphite and hop ups as we speak, one problem though is the steering posts with the 3racing graphite kit dont seem to hold the yeah racing alluminium steering arms, they have the plastic bush with the metal collar that goes on top, but when there screwed down the wobble up and down. i see u have the same parts, but u put bearings instead of the plastic bush, what size are they and do they still have up and down play in them?

[thewhitewill]

Hi there not sure what size they are i bought the whole bearing kit and they came with it but there was still some play in them i put a small washer underneath to stop it and works well hope this helps. You can pick up a bearing kit for a few pounds from ebay or your local hobby shop.

[richycreations]

i think if the collar wasnt too long it wouldnt have this problem because the collar atleast exceeds the length of the bush (were you have a bearing)< this causes it to move up and down atleast half a cm, i might try hit up some local bearing shops and if that doesnt work, might try to fabricate a bush to go between the collar and the inside diameter of the center hole to fill the gap.

[richycreations]

oh and btw, when you said you bought a bearing kit, did you mean the steering kit came with the bearings, or you bought a tt01 bearing kit and it happened to come with ones that fit the steering holes?

[TInoTAcoDRifter]

how did you get the velcrow body to chassis thingy istead of pole

[thewhitewill]

They are homemade and fixed to the original post holes. thought they gave the car a more real look.

[MCLERC88]

nice car i have a yeah racing kit on my TT01 olso a nice car but how you have made the body post i whant to know it tel me please

[marton1111]

its a dream

[farmee87]

damn man!!!!so nice!!!feel like going to shop and buy it now!!!!!!!!

in malaysia can get arount RM450 at TP racing in petaling jaya....

must look great n cool plus CS mod on this chasis.....

:P

[Jakey4seasons]

is the transmission supposed to be exposed like that?

[webagent90]

ya i ordered it last month too and the chasis feels different from stock it goes much better

[Evopoper95]

hm... its damn nice but it looks very hard to change the whole chassis especially when you got the servos and the stuff thats sticked to the tt-01 chassis... i am thinking if i should do it or not... is it alot lighter than the normal chassis? and how long did it take you to finish the whole conversion? thanks mate.

[thewhitewill]

Its much better than the standard tt01 in lots of ways and it only took a few hours to do the whole thing plus a bit us messing around to get the wiring sorted.

[Evopoper95]

ic.. thanks mate and are the carbon expensive?

[SUPERFORMIAN]

its about $90

[SUPERFORMIAN]

dude if u look at Tamiya's TRF's and TB Evo's, u'll see dat da gears r exposed. and yes the carbon is liter than plastic. and its really easy to do if ur experienced enuf

[RCDr1ft]

I like the velcrow to hold the shell on! is that custom or can you buy it on ebay or something?

[thewhitewill]

Sorry all made by me not sure if you can get anything like it on the net?

[RCDr1ft]

ok... I did think about it myself. Haven't got round to looking into it yet tho.

Cheers anyway!

[nlarcdden]
