We sold out of all 10.5 and 13.5 motors for that offer. I will have to see when we get more in stock and how long we will do it for.

I think I read that the kits now have the new 08 diffs in them, But Jeff may be a better person to answer that.

Jeff Cuffs talked me into converting to the new tray with the SMC 5000 for the IIC. It was excellent. The pack hanging out at the rear offsets the BL motor doing the same thing on the other side of the chassis. Both my carpet and asphalt Phi cars are setup this way now. The SMC 5000 is better than any other lipo I have tested to date.
Completely agree that it looked funny originally; but, I am thoroughly pleased with the performance aspect. Has more power than a 3600-4000 lipo at the end of the race and the chassis is balanced with minimal added weight.

A few pics of my front/rear mods. Front is using Jet Xray 008 front knuckles/Cyclone axle/Tamiya 46mm bone/Tamiya 5mm hex. You could use the plastic knuckles to achieve the same result. Rear as per everyone else. Will give it its first run this weekend and see how it works.

You could use the 008 std front steering knuckles(a lot less work). Just enlarge the top/bottom king pin hole to 3mm dia. With the alloy steering knuckles I enlarged the holes to 4mm and inserted a teflon sleeve instead. Too much work really.
I used the Tamiya pulleys only because they are cheaper and easier to get. All you have to do to use them is ream out the center holes to fit the spool/diff bearing and use 3mm balls in the diff. The Xray 05 belt freed the drive train up a lot compared to the Tamiya belt.
Hope this helps...

I think the new phototype PHI has alot of other car brand parts.
i've seen this car do its first run today at the BRCCC track in australia and this short wheel base config makes the car dialled.
