Default Vega B4

I was just curious when these would be out.

There was mention of 2 - one for B4, one for B4.1.

Will the chassis hardware on both (for the bits not from the donor cars) be metric throughout?

Hello colmo
I have found out that you will need to use the front end 4 imperial screws that hold on the front bulkhead
And the rest will be supplied in metric to bolt the vega bits on this is on the b4 not b4.1 that will be all metric
Hope this helps

Thanks

I believe all the Vega cars will come with the same shell design.

As for another style of shell, watch this space I know Rebel is on the case!

If they come out with something nice/normal I would order a kit.

going to have to ask, the b4.1 accoding to the manual is still imperial screwws, the only difference is the metric diff bearings.
so why metric fixings for one and imperial for the other?

The shell is just.... AWESOME, DIFFERENT, INDIVIDUAL (IMO, don't want to start a war)

The official word on a new shell from VEGA is NO.

So basically the only real difference is the outdrive bearings size? That's handy if the two gearboxes are interchangeable.

I presume the threading for holes for ballstuds will remain imperial?
