Im using four degree front hubs and zero degee on the rear pivot pin plate.
thank welsh but i havent ordered the chassi yet shall do it later.
Any way i have sended fibre-lyte one of my alu motorplate to have it copied in carbon. When they can dulicate it in carbon I shall order it and the chassi/upperdeck.

On the steering posts do you use the ones to screw it together with the topdeck as per manual??? or do you use the optima version with the c-clip ???

For the zxr the poles with circlip but zxs as per manual as tension is needed on the belt unlike the zxr where the cars more efficient with a loose front belt.

Welsh tested the um 510 wich is the uj for the rb5 62,5 so it fits but it has an longer axle so its better to just get the 62,5 bone and the axle for the lazer .

Also i found that black axle for the upper wishbone its actually an axle for ultima/optima serias of cars.
So
OT-11 and UM-7 also works since those bags contain that axle.

I don't know what kamtec is doing but he's falling behind alittle, team bluegrove is selling complete bodies with the undertray for the lazer.

Check this link out. You should be able to see some good pics of my car including two of it jumping (it had pink wheels on).

moth: the bodies from bluegroove aren't made with the best quality lexan. I know a few guys that have picked up bodies from him and they've said the quality of the molds he uses are not so great. I would wait on Kamtec.

Kamtec shells are better than the original in the case of kyosho as they are thicker and withstand more abuse. Im still using the same shell i fitted over two years ago and it still looks great.

Moth,
I have to quote the other guys ....
I bought a bluegroove Zx-r body (unfortunately before the undertray was available ) in order to check it better and I have to say that the Lexan is really too thin for a runner.

If your idea is to put the car on the shelf, the bluegroove body is fine (however some details are not as good as the original one), but if you want to race again your Lazer, it's better that you wait the Kamtec Zx-r shell or get a Kamtec Zx-s one ...

I also have to admit that the Parma Tomcat (that Welshy also sent to Keith) looks really sexy over the Zx-r ...

I forgot about the pink wheels. Gutted and that was the only complete run i had with it. Still went well and the shell is still looking good considering its used every two weeks and is now coming onto three years old.
