as for getting a 4mm chassis maybe call a shop in the US and see if they can't get it for you... maybe speedtech?

Just think Matt it will get worse when Eric gets the new stock motor tear downs to work with in a few weeks. Sounds like the new Trinity tear down will be stronger than the existing Monster Stocks we run now so I think your car might be even worse!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would than try to find a freind here in the states to order it for you, than get it from him. That or ask someone in this tread that you feel is trustworthy enough to send money to, to order it for you and send it to you.

Like the earlier post said that they are only available in the U.S. and only be bought through Tamiya Usa online store and the Tamiya Usa web site so that is the place to get it I would imangine. So saying that I do not see why a Japan website would have them.

This item is only available exclusively for sale at TAMIYAUSA.COM
This is what has been quoted from Tamiya thus meaning that Hong Kong would not have it.

I was just about to send them an e-mail Alan. I'm really quite pi**ed off about this, I'll send Steve Wang an e-mail tomorrow to see if he can help.

Let me know if you have any success!

Cheers.

I wouldn't get too upset with all this. My LHS is unable to ge the part as I have to order it directly.

I just called Tamiya and the guy told me they are unavailable at this time...they are not taking pre-orders and I have to call back. They do not have an expectancy date and all he told be was they are on the way from Japan.

Not for nothing, I'm very surprised with the sales approach by Tamiya USA. The problem is they are bypassing the LHS and forcing consumers to buy directly from them...for the most part many LHS offer discounts on products.

At least I'm able to yell at the LHS guy when my parts don't arive.

Anyone from the UK who would like a chassis, let me know. I'll order one for you...if and when Tamiya USA gets them
