Since the EZRUN combo was a no show and I got a refund from the seller I had to look for something else.
I ended up buying the Castle Creations Sidewinder v2 5700 combo.

Hey guys,
totally new to on-road. Been doing 1/10 2wd for a while, even racing a little. Also, we have a Mini-Revo VXL for my son, what a kick in the pants that thing is. LOL Anyways, I'm finally going to get a road car. I will just be driving it a little, trying to drift some and maybe a race someday, but I live miles from the nearest pavement, and hours from any tracks... I mainly want a TC for making scale bodies, with lights etc... I am looking into getting the Tamiya TT-01E Drift Spec kit, the Datsun Z car. I will likey be using some brushed setups I have around, Reedy motors, or possibly others if I can ever find some more brushed motors available. If I do go BL it will be 2S, something like 17.5-10.5...
On tower, they list bearing in drivetrain, and bushings in the hubs.. I want to have all the "bits and bobs" ready to build the kit, so I'm putting together a list of parts. What bearing will I need to make EVERY spot in the whole kit have the needed bearings? Also, I'm looking to get the alum. prop. shaft with the drive cup pieces, and probably the motor mount. The kit is listed as having the oil filled coilovers, so I think they'll be OK to start, but will I want differen't springs than the included kit bits? Also, will I want any steering upgrades, no need for bling, just function. I've read that there's a spot in the steering rack for bearings, or a need for adjustable toe links, I'm game for that.
Also, what gears do I want? I'm thinking of getting spur and pinion upgrades to start, the black/grey spurs and a hardened pinion, or steel... Also, as I will be driving this car in both Grip and Drift "modes", I think I'll be wanting un-locked diffs, but I will want some resistance to just "diffing out"... can the gear diffs be filled with fluid as on a 1/8th buggy, or just grease? What's the thickest grease I can get safe for RC cars?
The 240Z datsun kit also states that it's "short wheelbaase", something like 251mm? can anyone tell me more about that, or what the WB of a regular tt01 is? Or it the WB adjustable on this chassis?
I have also looked into part # 51000 Hi-torque servo saver, should I get this or run a normal arm on the servo. I'm thinking a MG type servo? Possibly the 120oz./in. waterproof traxxas digital, or a hitec... any suggestions? How much torque is needed in a car like this. I have a JR ST126MG in my Pede, will that work. I won't need the 333oz./in. Hitec like my crawler has, in a TC will I? (the crawler probably doesn't need it either, just went spend happy one spring..LOL)
Which pinion gear set to get? or should I just get one of the metric .6? pinions on Tower, the Robinson ones?

I will be making an order around New Years, and I'm going to get a TT-01 or another car, but I live in a very rural spot and don't have a FLHS really, so I want to get all the stuff in one shot. I am looking at the tt-01 cars, the Datsun kit, or maybe a TT-01R E-chassis for racing, so I will have both setups without swaping back and forth...? Other than the TT-01 platform, I have wanted an HPI Cup Racer since I first saw them a couple years ago, they are now supposed to be getting discontinued, so I'm in a pinch. I'd like to get one before they're all gone, but I'm worried about not having parts available. Would you guys consider getting one? Anyone have a Cup Racer and can give me input? If I did get the Cup Racer, I'd get the Datsun Z, and the Toyota Levin Drift Version, and some parts... Just to make sure I had my bases covered.. and because that's all they have on Tower anymore, or anywhere else I've seen. The kit is down to $169 now, so they'll probably go fast, the Z-Car says limited quantities now...

Thanks for any input,
Happy holidays,
Isaiah

personally if you are going for the aluminum shaft also pick up a set of DF-02 steel diffs they fit in the tt01 with some minor mods to the gear that goes on the prop shaft (little grinding of the back of it).

bearings http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXUGY7&P=Z or for the hubs you need 8 5mmX11mm bearings

Hop-ups
http://thetoyz.com/tamiya/tt01/1080/
http://thetoyz.com/Tamiya/TT01/Steering-Drivetrain/3racing/9829/ Cups for the CVDs (they are out of stock on these I had to find mine on ebay)
http://thetoyz.com/Tamiya/TT01/Steering-Drivetrain/3racing/9341/ CVD's


I have front aluminum knuckles, the alum steering setup, bearings, CVD's, steel DF-02 diffs, and the outdrives to fit the CVD's in mine. Also run a HW 35A with a 8t motor on 2S
http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=14976 easiest lipo I could make fit that didn't mes up the steering just had to put a longer screw in the battery hold down, and leave it a little loose
Side note I run the plastic driveshaft still I've not had any issues with it on 2S
Also the kits come with an ESC, and motor. If you plan to use the brushed ESC that comes with it get a cheap external BEC like http://www.hobbypartz.com/ubube.html and disconnect the red wire on the plug that goes to slot 2 on the RX from the ESC, and plug the BEC into the battery port (the tamiya ESC's put out the full battery voltage to the ESC if you don't do what I said, and could fry a receiver)

Here are some TT01ED, TT01R type and TT01 prices. If you do a little research on the net you'll find a variety of prices in the U.S. We've been using the TT01's for years in a junior high r/c club I volunteer with. They are very durable. Steering knuckles seem to be the major weakness. You can find aluminum upgrades on Ebay and probably the Toyz, as mentioned above,  and Toadz RC websites. The 3Racing versions don't work with the stock setup. You find the TT01E with a Ford truck body on various sites, for less than $110.

Advantage Hobby is a good deal, and I think you get free shipping. I believe you have to join their advantage club, which doesn't cost anything.

i dunno how serious your racing and drifting is, but if it is more intense, you may want to get something a little more nimble, like a TA05 or 6. that is also assuming you find a really good deal or just have the financial (for example i got my TA05 FXX for 170 right off tamiya's website, dont ask me how???) my regular TT01 was 140 when i got it, so i hope you find some thing better than 169.

changing diffs on a TT01 is somewhat of a pain, but trust me, a locked rear diff does WONDERS for drifting, yet can be a little annoying for racing... But having two diffs and another set of tires would probably ideal....

Hello all,
Thanks for the replies... I am actually looking at the TT-01ED kit on Tower, it's the Datsun z-car body... I like that the kit comes with the oil shocks, and most of what I will need. Tower lists 2xsets of rims with the kit, if that is how it comes I will likely get a set of grip tires for the other rims.. I hope to set the car up for drifting, and might try racing a time or two... If I do end up racing much, I will likely get a second car, like the R chassis on Tower, but I'll have to look closer, because there's 2 different ones...LOL
I will likely use the car once in a while, at home... I live miles from the nearest pavement, and about 90 miles from the nearest carpet track, so racing will not be a regular occurence. I think they only do on-road mainlly in the winter too...

Thank you all for your input. I will check out all the links you gave, and also be reading more online and watching vids on the Tube for another couple weeks probably before I order. Any input on the HPI Cup Racer?

Isaiah

Thanks for that,
I will definately look around for better prices before I order. Also, from what I've been reading, I will not want to use the same car for grip racing and drifting. I am looking at 2 kits on Tower, and can't find much difference. Can anyone tell me what the difference is between these 2? I can only find that one has steel dogbones and alum. 5mm ball link things... also, one is pictured with body mounts... I'd think they both had that though...

http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXANHJ&P=7

Also, here's the Datsun I'm looking at.... http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXANJT&P=7

Any input on this car would be great, I know this is the TT-01 thread, just asking. http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXXHJ1&P=7

I also found a yeah racing bearing set, for like $15, would that be OK to get, or do I want High Dollar bearings? Keep in mind, this car will probably get only a couple dozen or so runs a year...

I will likely get the alum. prop shaft/joint set, and the black spur gear set, but what to do for pinion? I will be running brushed to start (not kit ESC), probably in the 17-19T range, and 27T on the racer if I get it too...

For batteries, I have 2S Venom 4000 mAh lipos, they are shaped EXACTLY like a 6cell stick pack, so they work in many cars... so far I like them. I got these to fit in my old Stampede, it only takes the 6cells, not the 7 like the newer Traxxas trucks.

For a steering servo, I'm not sure what I need, I'm guessing standard size, MG, probably more emphasis on speed than torque. I like Hitec servos, but I have read that Tamiya doesn't make a servo horn/saver for Hitec? Can you please post some decent servos in the $25-50 range? I have a JR ST126MG in my Pede, and it's good, but I don't see that same servo on Horizon anymore. Would this be OK?
http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXVEP2&P=7

Thanks again for all who have made this site what it is!

the yeah racing bearing set I've had some bad experiences with them, and stay away from them. I bought a bearing set for my one buggy, and out of 16 or so bearings 3 fit(3 I did not need seeing I had them already)... the rest were ALL the wrong sizes. Got a center shaft for another RC from them it was too long, and caused binding I had to dremel 1mm off both ends to make it stop binding the drive chain. After that I swore them off.

Thanks,
Skip the Yeah Racing stuff....I'll look around but have never bought anything off of ebay... no reason, just haven't..... I figure at the very least, I could find some on tower or somewhere, any brands that are better than average?
Thanks again guys!

http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXD122&P=ML the 5X11's for the axles
from what I remember the axles were the only part that used bushings so you technically only need 8, but they are sold in 10 packs, and its always handy to have a spare or 2 also that is pretty reasonable one LHS I know charge like $2-$2.50 for the same bearings a piece

If you buy a TT01E or TT01 you will need bearings for the entire car. The TT01R type E and TT01D have full bearings. The TT01ED and TT01ES have bearings in the diff.

Mine's an F430 body thats really showing its four or five years....

I bought Mercedes CLK-GTR and Lamborghini Murcielago Bodies AGES ago, but never really used them because they are too wide (200mm)

That's a nice TT-01 chevyb. It reminds me of my Mercedes 190e kit I built over this summer (from behind). The result was so great, I have trouble getting myself to drive it. Now its sitting in the original box because NJ winters usually aren't On-Road RC friendly.


Here it is:

Tamiya #5455040 for the one that goes on the shaft (it has to be ground down like 1mm or it will cause binding just hold it next to the stock tt01e and you will see where)
Tamiya #3454029 the big ring gear that goes on the diff
