HAHAHA thats funny

"I bought them, but I didn't get a chance to install them" quote from teh add.

wow. well I was finaaly able to take my tc3 driving and here are a few things:

the break hub seems to be warping from teh breaking (maybe a stronger alloy should be used)

second the front on had to be filled down slightly to fit perfect. Other then that they are great. thanks for teh opputunity to try out the hubs. Maybe anodizing them blue would bring up their appela as well (to match teh tc3 chassis and other parts)

thanks

I think thats B.S. this guy makes some parts and mails them out at HIS cost simply looking for HONEST individuals to simply test them and give feedback on the product....Thats all....nothing out of pocket to the testers....FREE...And then some people asked him to send them a set without ever trying them for him.I saw the offer when it was first submitted here at RCU, and thought to myself what a great guy and offer....

Apparently people will abuse anything given the chance. I would hope if someone was nice enough to do a promotion like this(like TS engineering was), people would have the honesty and integrity that if they asked for a set to try, they would have enough respect for TS Eng. to do just what he was sending them out for....TRY THEM, thats all! Then later If they wanted to sell them on Ebay - thats their business.

But to ask for a set, then without ever even trying them, show up on EBAY selling the parts a week after getting them, really seems like they are taking advantage of a genuine nice guy and offer.

I dont have a TC3, or even know the guy giving out the parts...my only motivations for writting this are simply my outside un-biased opinion. I personally would have sent them back if I hadnt been able to test the TC3 drive cups, because showing up on Ebay saying you PAID for them, and now are selling them, leaves a question for honesty. Thats all.

He did mail the parts and did not charge us anything. This is where we are posting results:

I wasnt untrusting of TS Engineering INC.- just the opposite. I think for TS to make a product, and value consumers oppinions enough to send out free samples of a product to try, is WAY COOL!

studysession

I fully understand what you meant. I had to read it again to make sure.

spadworld

well they have sold! $1.25 and $2.00 for shipping. Person gotta deal. Now let's see TS send him a bill for $50 for them since now they cannot be returned for inspection. Heck they're free but what can you do when you can't see the flaws or damages for yourself. I know when mine show a significant amount of wear I'll send them back to TS for inspection so they can improve their designs on them. Then I'll buy my next set!

I wanted to say that these parts are great. I put them on my ntc3 and it stopped the wobble of the drive shaft from the stock plastic carbon input shafts. Next, I ran the car to check for binding. No Binding at all. Was very smooth and didn't notice the break disk woble like it does on the 4 pins from the stock part. Next came the speed/endurance check. I ran the car on the oval for over an hour(with pit stops) I found no excessive wear or anything that would indicate failure. Also, I did find that the steering rack didn't come in contact with the front input shaft like it does on the stock part, acting like a break at times when you turn hard to the left or right. Overall, I feel the parts are great and they are one of the few aluminum parts that should be added to every car.

studysession

Never thought of that. Everyone of us should send them back after some serious use so they can be inspected.

spadworld

I know I know it would be a sad day but I will send a SASE for return after inspection for some more abuse! Keep a tally of your tanks! if you can or at least Gallons!
