Well i just sold my revo w/tekno conversion and all the electronics. I had many cars before that St-rr, St-1, 777, about 23 but i'll stop lol. I decided I want to move back to nitro because I miss the sound and want to learn how to tune agian but, this time I wanted to buy the "good" stuff, and not cheap out So I found the Tamiyia TRF801XT :nod: So guess what.....I ordered it. Bought it brand new for $199.00 It was either that or the D8t but couldn't pass the price of the Tamiyia. PLus my dad has a D8. WE might be racing depending on what happens with USAIR layoff. WE can still have fun if we dont though:tire: But anyways, here is my setup....some of the stuff I still have to order.
Tamiyia 801XT
Picco .21 Boost w/ pipe
Hitec 985mg
Jr 250z
lpr tires/wheels
*tilted conversion maybe

what is a tilted conversion ?

chaserogesr14

tilted engine mounts
id put the 985 for throttle and a associated ds1015 on steering very good for the price

supertib

tilted engine mounts suck !

I have them on my Hyper 9..causes lots of heat due to the reduced air flow over the head...as well the linkage is a PITA to keep functioning correctly..... I am actually selling my Hyper for this reason...sounds good on paper, but in reality its a PITA

chaserogesr14

the hyper can have the engine straight up still dont know what the linkage adjustment would be though

supertib

I want to go with a more conventional setup...makes service much easier...As well the Hyper has a poor fuel tank that can cause all sorts of tuning issues...

lol ok no tilted so what do you guys think about the tamiyia

chaserogesr14

honestly not much, besides lutz drove one to some good results, I think there is some sort of front arm conversion to make it stronger though
