hi guys. just building my first zx-5.
the manual says put spacer in the front of each of the bulkhead (under D plate for the front and BR plate) but it doesnt say anything about putting a spacer under the rear toe plate (A30), and also behind the front bulkhead (under C plate) do you put spacers there? coz i seen some setup sheets it specifies to but plates there. thanks |

Hello all,
I have my Lazer since a couple of weeks. Watching the Lazer category in this forum I found many ideas and good hints. I just tried setting up my ZX5 like the Batley sheet. Some general questions for the setup sheets figured out here: (Maybe because I could not interpret the english name for the parts in the right way) - Front and rear suspension 'Upper Spacer': Is it an optional part or is it in the kit? Where to find, which itemnumber? - Axle Hight Spacer: What is meant by UP or LOW? Is the UP position with the spacer on the bootom? - Hub Carrier back: How to set up the hub carrier to 2°? Is it an option part or just put the screw to another hole? - long wheel base on rear hub: What to do here? Is there an general description for the setup sheet and for the effects using option parts? Please help me a little here. thanks Andreas Last edited by andreasH; 02-09-2006 at 06:06 PM. |

thanks to jimmy for his review and suggesting to use short camber links front and rear. it made the buggy so much easier to driver and less twitchy.
this always went against what i thought those links was supposed to do. i always thought a longer links gave more stability, and better for loose tracks. |

upper spacers are just a standard 1mm thick washer so 2 of those to raise the ball stud to stiffen it up the roll a little
up position is with the washer below the front hub 2 dgree hubs are an option part (sorry dont know the number) long wheel base on the hub is to put all the hub spacer washers in front of the hub to push it backwards as far as possible hope this helps. sorry for the delay in answering your questions but i dont get the chance to look on here very often Quote:

ZX5-SP blank set-up sheet
Does anybody know where I can get a blank set-up sheet for the ZX5-SP?
If I can get an editable one I'll post up my set-ups here! |

Matty, thanks for the link but that is for the ZX5 .... not the ZX5-SP with the revised front end (which is worth every last penny by the way!!!!)

Where can I buy the SP conversion kit from in the UK and what price should I expect to pay? Can't find it in stock.

Microtech stock it at £65 but currently show out of stock. Give Keith a ring there and find out when it's due back in, shouldn't be long.

Just out of interest, has anyone ever *needed* to change the steering servo from stock on the ZX-5 as I bought one the other day and it sometimes struggles to go from full left lock to full right and ends up just going in a straight line?
The only thing I can think thats causing this is that the servo is a bit on the weak side and can't turn that quickly/much? |
