I suppose you meant the internal ratio. It is now 2.294 (or 39/17).

Tamiya LIES
WFT, I go on the tamiya website and read THAT
Now we all know that Surikarn used the TRF415 with the Tb Evo 4 suspensions on it. They have no need to lie and say that he used the Evo 4. He didn't either use that bodyshell, he's supposed to have used a PF body or a ride body (can't remember which one it was but really it doesn't matter).
What do you guys think of that ?
PS : That bodyshell looks good though... I'm gona get one for sure !

i would know. i just did it. you do get better exchange rates paying by credit card but they charge you 12% using credit card so you still come up with a final exchange rate of less than 100. as for shipping cost, it depends on the shipper, but certainly more than 50.
But the point is, it may list at Y28800 but it often is not cheaper to get from Japan.
