If you want the best conversion (which I think is not needed) check out the KAWADA conversion. It's bar none the best quality. It may not be as flashy as the SSG 3Racing one...but the fit and finish of KAWADA's stuff is up their with Xray and Corally.

The ones in the above link are uppers only, right? I was hoping to get the 3racing full set....the squares will work....just can't find a complete set

Hey Dotman,
do you own speedtech rc? I loved the ta05 makeover on the site, it's what inspired me to get my 05
You've likely already answered this question a million times or so ...

Guys ... What's the best belt that you have used so far, in terms of durability 
I'll be running mamba 6900, so might as well get the best belt out there. Thanks.

TA05 Belt
Thanks Buboy28, just don't want to keep replacing the belt, everytime I run the bonestock TA05 with the mamba 6900. cause I heard rumors that the stock belts expands with the use of modified and brushless motors.

Guys, thanks for the information.... it's not bad at all . I do the math, I'm running the TA05 on weekends only for maybe 2 hours max. It will last for 3 months with one belt lasting 24 hours continuous running.
I have seen somewhere about the FK04 belt tensioner #303070 modification on the rear belt. It will make it easier to adjust the tension of the rear belt on the fly.
