I've not tried it yet Might not be as good as my original. I.e. The steering might actually turn when I want it too without the servo saver just numbing it all. Where would the fun be in that!! |

Nice shot. I have the small one, and hopefully the re-re soon too. The Mini Z version is on my wishlist, that will have to wait for a while. |
So it's not possible to update the transmission of an original car with re-re parts?

Try this, pages 16,17 & 19 I think I've bought a few spares from Banzai to tidy up my original, bumper, motor guard, front underpan, wishbones etc... all direct fit |
If you want to replace the gears, you are going to have to replace the complete gearbox internals. The rerelease uses a 3mm pitch belt, so you will also have to replace the front diff as well.
The rerelease diff is mounted on 10x15 bearings, while the original uses 8x14mm, so to mount the new parts in an original gear case would mean finding some 10 x 14 bearings, which as far as I know do not exist. The only way you can upgrade the gears is to replace the complete gearboxes including the gear cases. |
Pretty much stock, except for the 2.2 wheels and Proline Bar Code tires, also added the side rail guard things.

Which spares are a must for this car guys? I guess the typical stuff, sus. arms..shock towers? |
What motors are folks running? I have put a 10.5t in and I can't keep the front end on the ground. Slackened the slipper off as far as it will go. I have a 13.5t in my original 1985 one and that doesn't suffer wheelies - do I just need to drop down a few turns on the new one?

Not broken anything yet, but if I recall back to the old days, I used to lose the dog bones so always had a couple spare. If you run the big bumper that pretty much protects the front |

That's why I'm making a "Pro" style upper deck with the battery relocated forward. I figure it was the trick back in the day, should still work :-) plus I've always loved the Pro |

It used a long rod over the battery. I was able to fit it by cutting a little access hole you can see in the pic. The rod on the pro was a thin wire, this uses a straight piece of all thread. We will see how it holds up

Nice 😀
Are you taking orders? Looks like a fabulous solution to wheelie-ing |

Soon...but not until the parts arrive. I am waiting for the standoffs and threaded rod.
Here she is completed... |
