Sold it as my Mrs can no longer get in the bath due to now being diagnosed with MS so have to buy a wet room and the money from selling this one of possibly ten ever made (unused) is helping to pay for this.:thumbdown:

Still I am using one as a runner which is also one of the ten protos and wont be selling that.:thumbsup:. Pics are on the Petit site and on here somewhere.

Ron,

Do me a favour as I am unable to access your site from work can you give me the part number for the chassis on the ZX-S, not the Evo. Thanks.

James, ZXS Main chassis part number is LA-120 mate!

couple of answers please,

i'm going to try and make a lazer this weekend out of all the cars i've purchased, use a bit from here bit from there, etc,

which is the best spur mechanism to use from the 3 in the pics,??

also is it better to use geared diffs or ball diffs ???

thanks for any answers

Use the middle one...

btw you have to mail me youre adress

+1
for the middle one ;)

Bye

Middle, and you should buy the sc10 extra torque slipper pads and my design 100t 48dp spur from rw racing with hexes on both sides for the zx / zxr as you can use brushless mitors without problems. It also fits perfecty on the first picture but has more rotating mass weight so hence why we say middle.

Ball diffs are better but you must get ceramic diff balls and thrust race otherwise the diffs crap due to a gritty feeling.

thankyou for advice
 

thanks for the advice,

i will use the middle one then,

i also already have 2 of your spur gears james and 2 sets oif high torque slipper pads,

see pics,

will use them also,

any idea of where to buy the ceramic balls and the thrust race

thankyou

Well my best mate Dave Belsten (Nuclear RC) recommends RC Lazy and I bought a couple of sets along with Nuclear RC grease and they are smooth big time.

Yup I can hook you up with diff & thrust greases, just drop me a pm

are these the items,



24x 3/32 Lazy Balls ceramic diff balls – £7 per 12
2x BRG100 – Ball Diff Thrust Bearing – £7.49 ea


if not do you have any links please, i'll probably end up buying wrong parts,

will pm about greases, thanks belston

I dont know part numbers but did send rclazy the originals and they had them. Their web site is easy to find on google, and if in the uk they are easy to call and ask for them, just ask fir lazer zxr diff balls

started the car last night,

mainly put all the alloy bits onto it,

just missing a few balls for the rod ends, gunna buy a whole new set,

also gunna build a lazer out of all brand new and original parts,

gunna finish this one first,

i know i should have cleaned some parts before assembling but that will give me something to do another day... :-)

Looks really nice Ron :thumbsup:

Looking good Ron ..sexy ...

gettin really confused on sizes,

i have the 4-40 rpm blue ball cups,

what size balls do i buy,

i see sizes like 4.3 and 4.8 etc but dont know what balls to buy...

just rewired my novak speedo to go in lazer so wires are right size and also made the cap wires long enough to sit neatly on top of rear gearbox,

burnt a hole in my hand doin it though, lol...

thanks for advice on ball sizes..

Hey Ron, where are the blue steering knuckles from?

Associated balls dont kniow the size tough i think 4,8 are kyosho ones but i might be wrong ...i do know if you have the associated size they fit nice.

mvh Isobarik

Hi Mate,

I have used the blue RPM ball cups on my ZX-RR as well!
These Associated ballstuds fits like a glove.....:D

- PN: ASC6276 short ballstud 4/40
http://cgi.benl.ebay.be/Associated-S...item35b424553e

- PN: ASC6277 long ballstud 4/40
http://cgi.benl.ebay.be/Associated-B...item2560c0c135

ATTN: I fitted the short ballstud PN: ASC6276 only in the plastic parts.
And I used the long ballstuds PN: ASC6277 in the shock towers, however it's possible that you you will need to enlarge the hole a little bit from the current size 2.6mm to 2.8mm.

Firstly nice zxr above with multi coloured bling but be warned the alloy top deck does bend and can snap the chassis.

Secondly i have always used associated ball joints all round and i would recommend and prefer the RC10 B2 ball cups which are now widely used on associated touring cars as they very rarely pop off unlike the RPM where they do when they wear. Im still using the same ball cups two years later and bugger all slop.
