TT-01D Level Up!
I'm planning to put some money into my tt-01d. For the past 7 months i've been driving it bone stock (except pvc tires) and i've learned the drifting really well, to the point where i'm limited by the car's limits. I think this has been the best way to learn, much like Tsuchiya drifting the piss out of 130 hp AE86's to master drifting.
I'm looking at getting another body, since my original body is trash. But it went to good use! I learned, as well as probably 6 others, who all went out and bought rc cars to drift shortly afterwards.
I'd like a 180sx body (since i drive a 240sx in real life) and I was curious about the fitment of Yokomo's s13 body on a TT-01D chassis. Is there anything unusual about it?
I'm also planning on getting a better motor- something around 18T. I have a MC230 speed controller to use so i don't have to worry about frying the Tamiya one. Anybody have any good recomendations?
With the motor comes the gearing. What gearing should i run for the pinion and spur? Where do you buy spur gears anyway?
And to accompany the extra power, i plan to get the aluminum driveshaft to keep things straight.
