I was wondering, since we have almost redesigned the Lazer-ZX (with Welshy's CF parts, rear gear box and my front gear box, finned motor plate, alloy upper deck mounts, belts and pulleys).

How difficult would it be to redesign or remake the Lazer ZX-S?

That would be a pretty nice project.

Dont bother, rear gearbox is sorted and doesnt need changing, front gearbox ive already redesigned the front gearboxes to give more strength. Car is not the best handling on high grips but is perfect in standard form on clay. Oh ive redesigned the rear shock tower mount as thats as fragile as china like the front gearboxes.

Tried my zx last night and did a lot of changes in practice. I went through an assortment of oils and pistons and springs in practice and as a lot of top uk talent turned up i had to get a good basic set up. I made the A on my first round time as i broke the ball joints on my shock right in the second round, the same happened to the left in the third round and annoyed me as i was putting in a time using silver springs on the rear and being smooth that would have put me fourth, anyway i ended up going to 70wt oil size one trx1 shock pistons and associated red springs (truck rear cut down) on the front. Rear 40wt size one trx1 piston but need to decide between associated silver, blue or gold springs. Im half a second off the pace a lap at club from the top guys so am please using silver but cant throw into the corners as i get major grip roll so have put golds on and cut a bit more off so i can use the middle hole on the rear hub to get a bit more down travel to aid jumping. Im hoping this works. I also opted for the gear diff in the rear and worked well but am unsure how the belt is at the moment. One step closer to a good setup.

Replying to a few day old post.

What I really meant was. I don't have a ZX-S and wish to have one. Is there re-designed or re-makes of parts for me to build one. hehe

Ok well Fibre lyte have copied all of my CF items and are listed, as well as Kamtec copying my shell, undertray and gear cover - front and rear gearbox lexan covers are simple to make from spare leftover shell bits.

Blue steering is on ebay, top deck middle mounts are just standard ZXR silver poles, same with the steering poles. Diffs are the same as either ZXR mk1 or 2.

I am unable to get a rear shock tower mount but can supply you with a CAD drawing so you can make an alloy one, plastic is brittle so better having alloy. I may be able to sort you out with a damaged rear top deck mount so you can make an alloy one (I may actually have a CAD drawing of that somewhere as well (a bit like your design for the ZXR). UJs are easily obtainable (aka kyosho ZX5 but ISO can tell you what he used as mine are the original protos)

I can sort you out with a new front gear box and possibly a rear if I have one (may be a damaged one that you can use to make an alloy one) a rear belt (If I have enough spare) but am unsure if I have many front belts. Its a start anyway.

Great!!! thank you welshy! That's a very nice new year present from you to me =)

One request, Can you please help me count the teeth on the belts? are they the same as the ZX belts?

I am guessing the drive shafts, pulleys, hubs and arms may be the difficult ones to find.

Wow.... I just downloaded the ZX-S evo manual. Seems like this would be an very exhausting project for me if I were to build a ZX-S from spare parts around the world. Some of the parts may not even exist.

I will think about it for a few days.

Zxr/zx arms, iso knows the rear hub part numbers, front knuckle arms zx or zxr, layshaft gears i know are available and i tested these beauts thoroughly.

Different size front and rear LA114 and 115. when i get a chance will look. I will search for the rare items as my sources are superb in finding certain items for me. Its not as hard to build as you think.

the zxs uses an longer front belt and an shorter rearbelt compared to the zx series of cars.

Btw pargu is youre best/easiest choise for the LAW-20.1 and thats the blue kick up in the front.

I Actually found everything except the following:

• LA102 - A-Arm Stay
• LA103 - Bumper Set
• LA111 - Gear Cover
• LA115 - Rear Belt
• LAW112 - Hyper Clutch Set
• UM123 - Slipper Pad
• UM123 - Gear
• and the universal shafts.

Is there a alternative for the hyper clutch set, pad and spur gear?

Up till now, the total is around $680 CDN. Is it worth it? is that too much?
