Considering a VEGA which base is best?
As above really. I run an SX3 in 4wd and I'm looking for a 2wd Vega is there any recommendations for base kit, I'm looking at the B4.1 at the moment.
Opinions please.

All the vega conversions seem to perform really well. The kyosho has more of the top drivers running it so there's probably more support for setups with that chassis.
The B4.1 will be a great car and spares availability will be good because of the popularity of the base chassis. If spares support is a concern, we will be introducing a full range of kyosho spares to our website in the next week or so. The choice is yours! |

Ok thank you.
I guess the B4.1 makes the most sense. But Kyosho and Tamiya are both metric.

The kyosho version is the original conversion so benefits from loads more users dset ups and tips due to it being on the market a few months longer. You obviously already have seen the amazing quality and workmanship from xtreme so you will not be dissapointed which ever one you select. They are beautifully made, lovely to work on and set up, and drive better than most other mids I've laid my hands on. For an average driver (like me) they really make the journey so much more responsive and consistent. Fast in the turns and fly like a dream. Make the jump, you'll love them Good luck making your choice

vega choice
Sorry, didn't mean to sound vauge there by that I mean that xtreme had to spend extra time sorting out the front end geometry due to the angle of the 201's kick up. Its resulted in an amazing lay out really. As you may know from seeing other conversions over the years, it a hell of an acheivement for them to create a conversion that is deadly consistent across 3 manufacturers and buggys. Yes each one has slightly different set up details, but the 'race trim' ( added brass weights and wing size/gurny) are vurtually the same across the board. This comes down to xtremes wicked chassis template, same internal dimensions, same shell, same space no matter which one you choose
Completely awesome product

No probs mate, fingers crossed for you .....let us all know on this thread when you grab one. Be good to know which one you get ......Oh by the way, just as an added bonus, Tamiya do a front axle conversion as a 201 hop up to run other size bearings!! opens up the options for wheel choice as it can be a pig to get Tamiya rims.....Although Simon at RC Lazy has recently become a solid stockist of Tamiya whites so its allllll gooooood...get ready for your ali dream 2wd...happy buying
