If you want to run the Courage body you also need the Courage bumper parts #9000030. They have been hard to come by, but I think Tamiya has them in stock now.

Miller Lite....
Or perhaps Red, orange, and yellow fade??
But then there's also my traditional Orange, blue, and white zig zag scheme too.
So many choices, and yet Memphis is only 6 weeks away....hmmmmm
Actually, have you never seen a picture of the Hellman's NSX? Let me know, I have it here at my desk, I can post it if need be

I have been looking at this chassis for a while now, I really want to get one, I think after I get my 007 up and going the f103gt will be my next car, do you have to use a stick pack in it or will a side x side pack work? what are the best upgrades for this chassis that would still make it tcs leagl?

For Hop-Ups the Shock and turnbuckle set are a must. The motor mount and soft flex plate are also worth the money. If you don't already have the tamiya pitch pinions get the spur gear set, its cheaper than buying pinions for the stock spur.
The graphite upper deck, lower chassis, and friction plates make no difference at all, and the ball link suspension doesn't work as well as the stock o-ring setup. The Teflon friction washers feel smoother on the bench than the stock plastic ones but I couldn't tell them apart on track and they cost way to much for a couple of washers.
