Hi guys, first post here from Australia. I have been slowly going through this thread and have found it very interesting indeed.
Long story short, back when I was a pup I got a ZX-Sport for my birthday and for various reasons I never got it finished. Recently after taking a break for work life I have dragged out the Lazer to get going and have some fun!
Trouble was when I opened the box lots of bits were missing. So I have slowly accumulated the parts required to get it going. Which has conveniently allowed me to upgrade it to 2.4ghz radio, lipo, brushless motor and ESC.
Took it for its first run a couple of days ago and man am I hooked! Broke front drive belt, open diffs suck and tyres rock hard (only good for drifting).
I want to spec it up to Zx-R and beyond.
Dangerously a few scotch and cokes later, an iPad and eBay and I am going to be on a first name basis with the postman!
Few questions:
What parts would I need to upgrade to a slipper clutch setup?
Will 3racing ZX5 shocks fit (I think they will)
Has anyone got a solution for DIY stabilizers (not really keen on the price of OT-54)
Where can I get carbon shock mounts from to change the shock position?
I bought LA245 universals, thinking they are for the front, but from a quick scan of this thread that is wrong, but maybe they will fit the rear? I need the 65mm for the front?
Not sure if the carbon tubs mentioned in this thread will fit the ZX-Sport, so I am going to get a friend who is a master craftsman in carbon etc to make a new chassis (not sure if there would be a market for them?)
Anyway so glad I found this thread, keep the info coming in.
Cheers,
Tim
