Kyosho ZXS-Evo question.

[RJJ]

Hi guys needed some help from the Kyosho experts on here please

I have seen 2 types of boxes for these, one has team Kyosho on it and others are plain.

Also seen gold shock caps and bottoms with yellow springs while other kits have blue colour shock caps and bottoms with silver springs.

Was their a change during the production run, anybody know why the differences from Kyosho and is one rarer than the other, box and shock colours etc.

Ok well there were a few, the first was a small amount of proto types (roughly ten) then a batch of 300 ZXS one piece chassis kits,some had losi shocks and some had gold shocks but all had yokomo yz10 wheels and adaptors. Then 200 ZXS Evo and has team on the box of the three piece chassis and some had gold shocks and then the blue shocks which were used in the zx5 shaft drive car. Car was designed for clay and dust tracks.

No chance, keeping this one as you know I'm Kyosho thru and thru and sits nicely alongside my ZXR and ZXRR and ZXRS. You wouldnt believe what I had to do to get it to handle on a high grip surface considering it was designed only for clay and dust tracks. Also last proto I sold about five years ago went for £1200.
