We have had the design changed ever so slightly to be a better fit on the 4 gear version of the car, the drawings were approved yesterday and the go ahead on the first batch of 20 goes into production today. We should have stock hopefully end of this week or early next, they will proudly be displayed on our website as soon as we have them in our hands. Orders are already being taken if you want some.

This may be a daft question, but......

Is there any chance of buying individual shimz, i lost a 3 degree one when i broke a toe in block.

Lee, sorry mate they come to us in a complete set at present, "maybe" we will sell individual replamcents at a later date, but it is unlikely

Lee

Fair enough i didnt think they would be sold seperately but i had to ask.

3 degree is 1.5mm by the way to anyone who has lost one :thumbsup:

These shimz are a must have item. So easy to just loosen the toe block and slip it out in the middle of the field really quickly.

Thye will go live on our site in a few days mate, your best bet is to wack an order on there as soon as you see them, that way you will definately get a set from the first batch

Darren Boyle

Darren Boyle

Yes they are DMS134 priced at £11.99, they are not on our site just yet, should be added during the weekend (hopefully)

May be a daft question, brought some of these shims the other day and wanted to know what the small carbon plate is for??? Is that an extra shim? As it has a differant configuration to the other shims.

Thanks

Paul

Lee

It sits vertical against the back of the toe in block, to stop the shim sliding out i assume :)

Hi Swiss and Lee.
I too bought some of these CF shims and fine products they are. Darren said it was obvious where they went but even with 15 years experience I managed to get it wrong. It is obvious once your are shown how they go but if you lose one before the penny drops (as we so nearly did - that odd shim is the retainer by the way Swiss) it is a big loss.
In my own defence I was trying to fit the shims to a car I had just built so X6 car knowledge was zero on my part.
Regards.

Is the X6 yours or Andy's?

Darren Boyle
26-11-2008, 12:03 PM
Yep. the extra shim is indeed the retainer to prevent your chosen squat shim from sliding out should anyhting come loose etc. You will all be pleased to know that we are now offering this "shim" as a seperate part too should any one lose or break one. Also bear in mind that "some" combinations of anti squat can be achieved by adding two smaller shims together should lose/misplace any.

The full range of "DMS X Partz" will be hitting the X-Factory UK site (www.xfactoryrc.co.uk (http://www.xfactoryrc.co.uk)) and are already on our shop site too.....

Hi Mat.
It's Andy's. He had one meeting with it and I cant get it back off him. I think he was saying things like "How cool is this car to drive - it stays on line and doesn't do any random stuff!!":thumbsup:
