CAT SX2

frogger · #1 01-05-2010

So now that the Cougars are out of the door when will the SX2's start shipping?

Next week? Sure I was told next week. I think the parts that held up the Cougar were also the ones missing from the Cat....or something along those lines.

I was at @ HNMC today, there was a chap from Schumacher there speaking to the guys from MiM, he said they are hoping to get them out by the end of the week,so like mentioned above they should be around in the shops by next week

.

Thinking about selling the micro to get one my self

No No No, do not follow that line of thinking. Micro ALL THE WAY! Sell your soul if you have to but do not sell the micro.

Hope this will mean that the big bore shocks will be released this week as I'm sticking with the original Cat SX, but changing the shocks.

So they are, they weren't when I last checked on Friday.

Might just have to price them up.

.... I'll wait as it's far cheaper to buy them as a set

bigred5765 · #9 03-05-2010

its £20 a pair dearer to but them in bits but you'll get the spring you'll need and not what ever comes with them,plus you can have them now

Any further news on the SX2 my Schumy friends?

Need SX2 now please.

frogger · #11 06-05-2010

I was just reliably informed 'end of this week/start of next week'.

That'll make a couple of friends of mine happy

I'm sticking with my original Cat SX with the exception of maybe selling some Losi shocks to fund a set of big bore shocks.

frogger · #13 06-05-2010

Same here. We still have a CAT SX and the SX2 will be an addition to team Frogger, not a replacement. I am also waiting for the assembled big bore shocks for the SX.

Also, when are the alloy gearbox tops becoming available again!?

eichkay · #14 06-05-2010

Ive just loaded up my existing sx with the sx2 parts i want on there, just waiting on the shocks now.. the new arms are very impressive and look super strong and survived a 30min race at our local of which i won by 5 laps.

mikeyscott · #15 06-05-2010

I've got the SX2 chassis and top plate and wishbones, however I'm back to medium flex wishbones as I never really had a breakage issue. Shocks are on the front so again no need for the moment.

Just would like big bore shocks as I've been super impressed on the Cougar SV. Got some Ghea pistons coming too, 5 hole and soon to be 6 and 4. I'll put these in the Cat SX first.

Order the new hangers for the rear, but don't think they are necessary. Otherwise a year on my SX is still superb.

Car has all the other bits such as one way layshaft, alloy shock mounts, all three castor blocks in the box etc.
