Unless we machine our own pulleys which cost a lot more.
The blue belts that were shown in welshy's rear gear box are both 4mm wide.

I know..... because I made them.

It doesn't matter, there are plenty of room for the chunk of metal on the side because we are taking out the original chunk of aluminum with the one way. I will draw up something in the next day or two and show you.

if you guys want bling on your pulleys, google "Square Aluminium Center Pulley 14T"

It will cost a bit more.

And 3racing don't have a fixed 14T pulley

Come on let us know as it could be one of the ones I sold ages back. Be warned that you wont be able to run it unless you spend on a machinist to make a new rear shock tower mount and gear box bottom sections from alloy as well as they are stupidly brittle.

The evo comes with his blue wheels and kyosho tyres. It is a fresh build and comes from Japan.

The car comes also with original box, manual with azure wheels and tyres (aftermarket Kyosho products)

Yes it's really hard to find in Japan too.

Now that we know 3 racing make them could we not spec one and ask them to make it for us?to the desired spec I'm sure there enough of us who want/potentially use them

but that means i have to buy the blue belts and i cant use my existing belts or tough racing belts. are the blue belts as tough as the originals?
Welshy, if we dont use the one way, we can use a standard pulley with the chunk on the side.

Since 3Racing is a Company based in Hong Kong. I do believe they purchase their stock from China Manufacturers. Yes, we can spec and ask them to make, but I do not believe they will do that because it will mean they have to stock 1000-5000+ or even more pulleys.

What I am trying to say is that, if our spec of pulley is a niche market, they won't make it.

It would be bias if I say they are good as anything. I will wait till people who have the blue belts reply.

But I can tell you that the blue belts are kelvar reinforced polyurethane belts. They are very similar to the Kyosho Spider's SP belts.

Yes spot on. I still think the yz10 wheels suited it better with the one piece chassis on the zxs. I preferred that due to less flex and better balance compared to the three piece. Still an evo, one of 200 ever made. Welcome to the club.

I have some dimensions. But I want to make sure of all dimensions before I make prototypes.

I will get the pulleys, slipper plates etc first and fit it first.


one other thing. Since no one make 4x14x4 bearings. An adaptor might need to be added to the layshaft to be able to fit a 6x14x4 bearing. If any of you are able to locate a 4x14x4 bearing, please post it here.

you mean 8x14? really cant get those anymore ?
i built my lazer diffs with WBD-5 last night and i find that the 8x14 bearings have to much gap between the aluminium spacer. this will not only cause the diff to move side to side a lot, but will also allow dirt to get into the rear gearbox. How do i get the correct shims to fix this problem? this is avery serious problem. if i cant fix this i can forget about my lazer or i have to back to WBD-1.

I remember when I used 3mm balls to build the ball diff that the pulley wiggles a bit. I ended up using 1/8" balls and it was much more rigid.

To solve the shimming issue, you will need to get some 8 x 14 shims. Luckily I got some at my desposal I was able to shim it properly. I rebuilded the rear gear box a few time to get it to be shimmed correctly. It's all trial and error for me.

I just ordered the square aluminum pulleys and diff pulleys (see if I can make the ball diffs more durable).

They should come in the next week or so. After that, the fitting will begin.

Wish me luck.
