That's very cheap mate ;).

You could order the Mid44 chassisplate with upperplates and then bolt them on your B44: a new Mid44 is born!

Here in the UK the MiD44 conversion is distributed by ourselves (via Azarashi) so if any one wnats a new one then any X-Fcatory UK dealer is able to order one for you....

bought my conversion kit off DMS-racing and the shell, fast delivery

Ran the car now at two events F3's and WRCA Talywain

Comming from nitro I find this much easier to drive as it's balanced!!. far better than the B44 gives my more steering and loves jumps. the Talywain double no problem every time. the only thing which is letting it down now is my driving.

Checked out DMS,the price of the mid44 conversion has gone back up to over £134!! (f'ing crazy money imho)...it wouldnt be anything to do with the recent interest on here would it??

Darren Boyle

No not the case, to do with the fact we have sold out of all the stock that was purchased when the Japnaese YEN was over 160 to the £, now it is 129 and we have no plans to continue stocking it since it is aimed at NIMH cells and with LIPO being the way forward now the demand is VERY low.

They were reduced over three months ago and it took over 6 weeks before there were any sold at all, now the small handful we had have all gone, they have reverted back to their normal price and will be specially ordered only.

We had only our second ever dealer enquiry into them this week and that was only because of the (lower) price they "were" at, so not the hottest selling part on our shelf sadly......

Just to be clear, the UK FULL RRP price is £134,95, but the price on our own store website that you have seen (DMS) is actually £119.95.

The RRP from Azarashi (who produce and distribute the chassis conversion around the world) is 17,325 (Japanese Yen) which at todays rate of 129 to the pound works out to £135.80 and that is BEFORE UK Import duty, shipping and VAT is added, so I dont think that the UK price is too bad at present tbh.

Lovin the blue peter number one you stuck on yours Steevo... Did you get an adult to help with the scissors:lol:

axeman

I've left the number one on it cos it's unbeaten at swansea!!!!!!!

I have now put the mid44 shock towers back into production thanks to the Mid44 team!!!!!!!!

Please contact me if you require any...

The Mid44 shock towers never went into full production. A few were made for the original Mid44 team.

Now they are availble for the new UK Mid44 team.

pics will follow
