RE: TNX Subforum
yesthe stock chassis can flex, which many people have considered the reason for striped spur gears, i havent had any problems with this yet. and it can be fixed by strenghting the buttom part.

RE: TNX Subforum
I have not had any broken parts yet....so far the TNX has been really durable.
I have since I got it replaced the cooling head. Its pretty soft cast Alum. I replaced it with a machined Nova head.

So I replaced them with 2.5mm x 15mm screws.
Guys were telling me the stock head screws were stripping out the top of the crankcase from to little threads holding on the head....Once they put on the 15mm screws there were no problems....So I followed their advise....And I'm not having any problems....

RE: TNX Subforum
i just bolted on a duratrax .17 header and an rc10gt pipe to the beast.
not sure, but i think i see some top end improvement. not much tho.
bottom end screams tho.
i was lookin all over but cant find a body wide enough for this thing. i measured, it must be at LEAST 8.9 inches wide [sm=stupid.gif]

RE: TNX Subforum
www.prolineracing.com has a few bodys(u can only buy them in clear version, altho u do get stickers), u can also get the stock body(clear)
ill be getting just the stock TNX body and give it a nice paintjob
, if u want clear stock body, look in your parts list in 1 of the manuals. It will have a partnumber and your LHS shhould be able to order it.

RE: TNX Subforum
nex, you own a savage and a tnx. i found out that the stock savage 21 body(the nitro gt body) is a tacoma. i got hooked up with a clear 21 body and painted it silver like my real truck and cut out all the HPI stickers[:'(]. it's on my tnx now! it looked kinda funny to me at first cause the body was much smaller then the stock tnx body but it's grown on me and i haven't put my stock body every since. i'll post some pics of it later tonight along with the rd logics pipe pics. later.
