X-6 Xtras
 
Really considering getting an X6 now. They look really good at South Shields. I have asked this before to Dan Greenwood but have deleted the PM.Doh! If i buy the X6 Conversion, what else will i need to get it the same as the team drivers cars? I dont want to get it just to find out that i need to spend another X-ammount of pounds on it to get it going.

Cheers

Chris

On my car I run Losi Shocks, E-Speed Hangers, Bk2 Stub Axles. I think that's it for 'performance' extras. I also use Carbon anti-squat shimz for Glenn 'cos there easier.


If I think of anything else I'll add it.

there good as they come out of the box but the extras i have put on mine is
the e speed parts
k factory front shock tower
losi bk2 rear axles
rayspeed rear hubs

cant think of anything else that you need but im sure someone will remember something that i have forgotten

78t spur as 81t just touches the drive pins in the outdrives.

may need to dremel the chassis a little to get your servo in.

dremel a bit of the chassis away to make it easier to get to the lower motor fixing screw


looks like DMS is going to be busy again :D

all right all right dont get too excited haha :lol:.

rcracer 25-05-2008 09:36 PM

there really good you can use the as little moustaches so you can get served in the pub :)

mattym0310 25-05-2008 09:38 PM

spoke to you about this today :)
Tom has just about covered it I think. They arnt essential but I would get the shorter rear turnbuckles. Tom uses them and I understand Dan does too? Only get these if you get the Espeed camber link hangers.
If I think of anything else I will post here :D

All good, everyone is happy then......

Dificult to put an order on priotrity of upgrades but if you had a gun to my head;

Most importantly get the LATEST SPEC CAR (4 gear tranny, carbon rear tower etc)!
E Speed hangers / 78 spur / BK2 axles
Losi shocks
E Speed T piece

Not performance improving but nice to have are;
Carbon shims
B4 (or whatever) servo mounts (sorry Chazz)

Darren Boyle 26-05-2008 12:17 PM

Dan, I think that about sums it up in the order that people have been asking for stuff, except for those wanting the "poser" bits like the K Factory front tower and Rayspeed rear hubs (neither of which are essential)
