on another note, will the ZX-S body and undertray fit on the Optima Mid LWB chassis? its becuase i see its alot more similar to the Optima Mid body in shape, than to the ZX-R.

You still used the ZXS caster block ??? Regarding the diff threadlock or drill it out and replace it with an UM-121 if you can find some. The last tip might need some machining mvh Isobarik |

the thing is i like the original lazers c hubs and kunckles better, its because i can run the front end narrower than the rear, this way i can have more steering than running the front wide, with the ZX-5 parts, the front is only wide, no adjustment can be done.

Yes, especially considering the ZX-S body is just a Mid Custom body with a couple of lumps added to clear the ZX-S layshaft and the steering assembly.

i am just worried the undertray slope at the sides might not line up with the optima Mid OT-122 chassis sides. will they line up nicely? The ZX-S body to me looks nicer becuase of one improvement over the Optima mid LWB body, the side windows extend all the way to the back like for the SWB, whereas the LWB mids side windows are like the Kyosho integras side windows. also will the ZX-S body fit directly on the LWB mid undertray?

I did a body comparison here the overall shape of both bodies is identical. The main point to consider is the rear section, the ZX-S doesn't have the two bumps that fit over the shock mount so you have to cut slots to clear it. You will notice the clear ZX-S body rear has the same moulding marks as the Mid Custom, showing they are from the same mould. As it is from the same mould that was modified by Kyosho, the ZX-S body will fit a Mid Custom undertray.

Update
Guys, I am getting the CAD drawing for the gearbox today so will start tonight on it and aim to get two sides made up by the end of this week. Also may be a good idea in getting alcyon involed in the design of the slipper as his Mid slipper redesign using the B4 slipper parts looks stunning. Also I have managed to get hold of a hand made tub chassis for the ZXR and have sent off to be made as well so a mold will be available soon. I will post a picture of the made tub chassis but FYI the mold will be as though the chassis is a full cabon fibre tub so if you want cell holes you can have. As ive been spending all my money on my house I have been unable to do this until now as my chassis and top deck are still broken. Still cant wait to get new ones and fit and test properly.

Hitting a brick wall at area 51 at the end of the straight. Speed was quick and would have made the top 40 if it hadnt have interferance. Gutted as nothing else broke other than the top deck and chassis. No dents on hubs or wishbones so any other car and it would be worse. Also annoyed as id gone from last to first and was on for a really good first round time hence why i used the zxs.

There is an auction on ebay uk now for 2 pairs of front diffs. The seller says these are optima mid diffs but to me they look like Lazer Gear diffs. The seller isnt too sure but you guys can help confirm that i am right ?
