1) New rear wing mounts as kit ones are rubbish
2) Thicker front shock tower

Possibly....

Time to drop on to Lee's website :)

I'm not sure about the gear diffs, hopefully Lee is as we all want to see them in action.

On the down side if the diffs are amazing them i'll have to some ordered.

The pic of the Geardiff is not from Lee's car but of the one from Suzukis 511 I guess from the tag on Facebook. Hope Lee will report only good things about it;).

And it's nothing special, just the Tamiya 37T gear diff.

Pics are from LMR facebook.

Lee will probably show it soon. It is not a gear diff. Its a LMR product...

I don't think it is the same as the ta05 gear diff, I'm sure Iread someone had tried that in a 511 and it didn't fit, so I think the new one is 511 specific!?

Gear diff is something I am hoping IS a big deal for me, I am totally incapable of setting ball diffs and tend to take a few runs to get them right...I'm hoping gear diff would be more consistent!

It fits, the only question is: will it need metal gears or are the carbon reinforced gears strong enough for 4WD off road.

Yes they are and the best of both worlds come together. The best car I have ever driven and proper diffs. :thumbsup::D:drool:

Part number of the new kit? I've seen the part number for the gear diffs etc.

So will Lee be running a 511 with gear diffs at the euros or the more aggressive 502?

Lee will be getting another order for LMR products :)

Part number 42213 is for the kit not the geared diff :thumbsup:

How much else has changed, that's the question as plenty of people selling 511s..

I don't think so but I'm not in the know. I've seen a post on here with a link to website advertising a new 511 with gear diffs.

I am usually right when it comes to guessing these thing so I say gray ballcups. Same type of damper housings as on the 201. Do not know what they are called. Titanium rods. Perhaps a chassis without the slots for cells and a diff cover borrowed from Fredrik;). The tray moved back by a little so the cells clear the centre bulk.
Just pure speculation. Wrong thread for this tough. Sorry Lee.

Good to hear if it is true, I've just bought a 511 but I'm going to stick with it for a while, if it was good enough for LM this year it will be good enough for me next year!

I think the sales recently are soured on by the fact that the second hand price will come down once the kit has been released.

Totally agree, thatīs why all sell them now.

I've got two top spec 511's, there won't be that much between them and I'll buy a pair of gear diffs to put in them.

I may be wrong but I think that Tamiya have developed a gear diff so the car appeals more to clay racers.

Tell me about it. I received a big bag of LMR stuff today for the shop, so far I've opened a ride height gauge, 2 fan guards, and a roll of servo tape.

Note to self must resist more LMR bling..... We'll apart from the new product I will be having a couple of them!

So, what do you think of Lees new product? Surely someone must have seen it last weekend?;)
The Chef

I have LMR Fan guards and servo tape. The Servo tape looks like the 3M tape put on smaller rolls. if it is good work cos who wants 33m of servo tape when you can buy a couple at a time, also I think that RC Lazy sell the same stuff in there branded bags. The Little fan guard is the dogs doodars once I open'd out the holes only very slightly but it has saved my fragile little fan I'd do one every other meet before I haven't broken one for weeks.

Top man Lee.

Unfortunately I was unable to make southport, so would like to have the heads up would be great, as we are getting a group of loyal Tamiya drivers at torch, which is all good in my opinion :thumbsup:

ok my guess is based on the comments so far... i think its a rear shock tower cover made from lexan, ive seen them for the shumi cars but upfront...
i cant think of anything else that would be worth 5 pounds..
