I use the 11x14 shim sets for the diff, if that's what you are referring too.

Part number KYO96645

I received the pulleys, and currently doing the fittings on the layshaft.





The B4 Slipper plates & spring havn't arrive yet, so the design is just up to the spacer.

Ok now i see what you meant and superb. You will resolve having to worry about the nut coming loose if there is no thread. Great idea.

YEA!!! haha

I am also thinking of bringing the spur a tad bit closer to the centre as well. Do you think that's a good idea?

I should be able to bring it closer to the center by 4mm

May be a problem for me using my cf gearbox as ive screwed into the motor plate and sits just behind the plate. I suggest test the first and see how it goes then get a slight shorter one made and should be spot on.

Guys,

Would the Lazer ZX-5 steering knuckles and hubs work for the Lazer ZX?

I am debating if I should get the 3racing alloy ones

Very very nice, and you did the shading too ! but is there anyway to fit a fixed pulley for the front, instead of a non adjustable one way?

yes, there are room for 2 fixed pulley. but i am not sure how 4 wheel braking will affect the car. Currently, this set up is with the normal rear wheel braking.

i prefer 4 wheel braking becuase yyou can brake very hard to avoid collisions with other cars.

Kyosho America still have stock. $7 a pack.

I believe I can get them since I live in Vancouver which is very close to the border.

So do we want 2 fixed pulleys now?? or one fixed pulley and one one-way pulley??

I did some measurements, and in order to fix 2 fixed pulleys, we need to shave 1mm off of one of the pulleys. Easily done with some sand paper at home.... or a dremel....

Actually, if you can measure the parts for me, I can get it made and anodize them blue

[Welshy40]

Ive got four new diff outdrives (basically 4 diffs) with used plates, plate adaptors and large silver washers. No diff gears or screw set or thrust. I cant use them due to no thrust race or screws so these are up for grabs, preferably a trade. Let me know.

Thanks! Well I have been more a nitro guy for the past 15 years. But this car means a lot to me for personal reasons... On the Dec 10th 1993 I almost died from a 50ft drop. Came out of coma about 12 days later and that car was my christmas gift. Used it actively for 5 years, even though I had other cars (i.e. a 1990s Yankee which gave me the addiction to 1/8th nitro off road). Anyway, with moving several times I lost it. As soon as I can put my hands on one I'll buy it for sure! I don't think I would find a NIB one though...

I always considered lazer zx-s evo were 200 have been produced, but may be wrong, there are only 100 zx-s released,so rare they are！
