Thats Neil's car and it looks like as you say they have put the shock tower onto the rear along with the alloy mount. We could do with some detailed information about these mod's and why certain team drivers do them and others don't.

I'll give it a go buddy.:)

They are trying it to get more weight over the rear apparently, it's nothing to do with Yokomo it's one of Mick's concoctions I think :)

I've seen one of the cars in the flesh tonight.

Hey Neil, did you get ony goss on it?

Only that it's meant to be better over the ripples, no mention of more rear grip. It was difficult to judge it as it wasn't the best driver piloting it.

Any update on the new car? Pics?

Its built but no body yet....

Looking good any ideas for the shell design?

Yes, the shell :)

I had a strong idea on how I wanted it but to try would have meant investing in the airbrush and paint and then as my first attempt how would it turn out ?

So I have dispatched it to a very popular shell painter to work his magic, I cant wait to see how it turns out ! Watch this space.

Anyone no the part # for the new body shell?:confused:

Good idea Jonathan it's the only way i can get a decent looking shell.

The part number for it is BX-101F

Thanks NeiD!!!:)

No worries, get it from RC Champ in Japan it will cost you feck all.

Yes, I sent Masa at RC Champ an email looking for:
1-BX-003RH
1-BX-017
1-BX-018
1-BX-010FH
1-BX-010RH
1-SD-203
1-SD-412

and the New 2007 body shell.
He should get back to me soon with a price....

ordered mine today....u.s. doesn't have factory team edition yet, so ordered from japan. will try to post some pics when i get it all together.

Masa is a legend i get my stuff in around 5 working days from him.

Good to here. I'm still wighting for a response........

Don't worry mate, Masa usually replies in 24hrs the only time he didn't (it took 48hrs) was because the shop had closed for a week.

WOW!!!!:) I can't believe the savings. Over $80.00 usd!!!!!!
The same order here in the US from a US supplier would have cost over $200.00!!!!!!! I paid $109.50 Shipped!!!!!!:) ;)
I think the Body shell was $12.00 USD instead of $29.99.
Ya gotta love it Mate....
Thanks again for that part #......
Nate

Thats a really good price.

4 day shipping!!!! Faster than shipping from within the US. The new body shell (BX-101F) comes less the under tray though. Other than that the hole experience was ace!!!!!!!!!!:) Now I just need that rear upper deck and I will have the updated buggy. They did not have that in stock.....

New Body
 

Is the undertray available separately?

I think it's the same as the current one?

The current one came with the body shell. We would need to see the parts list of the Factory BX to find out.

Heres an extract from the BXF parts list.

It shows the new body clear enough, so the undertray could be BX-102 as that isnt on the original BX parts list, no price next to it though ?

Ok, I can confirm BX-102 is the undertray and pulley covers, price shown as Y1,380.

Is that the URL of the RC Champ you guys refering to? Is there an english site? Cant seem to find it:(
Also, just curious...do they have a product list or something?? Cant really read anything from that site:(
Any help would be great! Thank you!

This is the only english page they have, no list of parts.

http://www.rc-champ.co.jp/Champ_Inte...onal_index.htm

Just follow what it says on there and you cant go wrong

Sweet, thanks Jonathan!!!;)

what does the one-piece chassis do? more or less grip?

It lowers the rear diff down and gives more grip.

The Factory kit has the regular chassis.

but it also raises the batteries relative to the rear diff if you run the same ride height.:wtf:

try google language tools works okish
a bit pigeon English but better than original page

Just send them an email to [email protected] and ask them if they have what you are looking for in English. Add the name brand and part # and they will respond with in a day or two.

Were the 'Factory' versions limited edition? Neither 'RC Champ' in Japan or 'RC Model' in Hong Kong have any left, with no idea when they will have stock again. It is not shown on the CML website either, only the original kit.

Hi guys,

Since now I'm writing with Masa "Japanesse Felipe" :p to order a complete car with a lot of parts I have the complete part list for the BXF

I've prepared an spreadsheet with all MR-4BX references that calculates the cost of the order (without shipping) while you enter the quantities.

I've added 3 new columns to the part list. 1st one is the quantity of every reference, cells turn to blue if you enter some amount in order to find them easily. Column 2 (Price Yen) calculates the price of that reference in Yen, at the end of clolumn 2 you'll find the final price of the order in Yen. Colum 3 converts colum 2 values to Euros, that's for me to get a better idea of the cost.

If any of you wnat to use just let me know.

Jimmy, could you upload an excell document here?

Alberto, do you order your parts from RC Champ in Japan? They are the cheapest supplier and ship Worldwide.

I know RC Champ thanks to Jimmy. Now I'm ordering a BXF and every spare part I could need :p The complete order cost more than 100.000... does anyone want to sponsor me?:cool:
