hi bros... just came back from work... going to get my TT01 tomolo.

yeah!!

apart from TT01, i'll be getting the blue alu main shaft, tamiya full set ball bearing, PVC tyre and might get a rally rim, 3700mAh batt, metal motor mount and heatsink.

if a harder coilover is not too ex, might get it too...

oh yah... wondering if the TT01 comes with ESC, steering servo, and receiver...

edit: will be getting the tamiya anti-wear grease to fill my rear gear differential casing

We ish normally tie it around the rear body posts (for TT01) or use a spare bit of Lexan from the car body to fix to the chassis and then wrap the antenna around it. :D

Depending on which kit you get, the TT01 might come with ESC. So far the TT01 kits that come with ESC are the Nismo Skyline Z-Tune, Nismo Coppermix Silvia S15 ones, not sure about the spanking new sibei swee Mazda RX7 FD3S :D

Steering servo, transmitter n receiver comes seperately, depending which kit you choose. LOL, that sounds like a lot of mods! :D I changed my gf's car's susp setup to be lower and with hard springs, now the car handles a lot less sluggish :D

after one whole day of asseembling and doing up the body shell.....

can't wait to run it and start learning to drift with this babe.

btw when i press the throttle, is it normal to see sparks inside the motor? this is especially when i sudden full throttle it.

and also, where can i get the long type of pin to hold my bodyshell in north area? a bit troublesome to use 4 small pins since i got to open up the shell to connect/ disconnect the batt lead...

haha she is very good at "guiding" you through purchases :)
you need this, then how about this, then need this, battery need?

I presume you got the GP 3700 mah batts?
also did you get the battery connectors?
I am not sure how many amps the stock motor will generate underload, you may need to get better battery connectors if you upgrade your motor.

original tamiya connectors sometimes just cMI

enjoy!
