Has anyone done an in-depth review on the TT02 type S yet? I've not seen much on the net including Youtube. I guess this version of the TT02 isn't in many people's hands yet outside of Japan. I'm sure something will appear soon, but I'm just not enjoying the wait.
Hint, hint...for thercracer.com
I'm looking for a VTA/USGT budget racer from a major company like Tamiya. I'm not interested in a TC4 (owned 2 already), Sakura (had 2 zeroes already), or Spec-R S2 (worried about parts support, honestly).

I'm still considering to buy one but my TT-02 is doing very well on the track.
Perhaps i should buy one and sell my TT-02, cause all the needed parts for building a regular TT-02 are included in the kit. Except the drive shafts.
I also have the Spec-R S2 and that car is very good aswell, parts can be found easily at TQracing. So parts for that car shouldn't be a problem.

The TT02s is pretty sweet, I'm very busy with real work atm but a review will come soon.. The only thing that bugs me is that there is no droop screw setting, you have to use spacers in the shocks. It's not a big issue and once you get a set-up then its cool its just that I do not like getting my fingers dirty
Always working, you should have some priorities about building tamiya cars (Just kidding)
Tamiya should design a new B8 part that gives the opportunity to use droop screws.
Very easy and could be sold as an option part.
I have been thinking of designing the part for myself and get it 3D printed

I need to do the 419 review before the TT02s.. Hopefully I'll get them done soon.

Excited to join the TT02 crowd. Got a deal on ebay - an unbuilt parts set minus wheels, body, and electronics.
It's perfect for 'fixing' my Nikko Ferrari F430, this purchase solves these issues:
-RWD with open diff (nightmare)
-2S hardcase is rubberbanded in place cuz does not fit 7.2v round tray
-standard servo doesn't fit centered (non-standard on original car)'
The only other thing on my mind was- currently the car uses a stock TA02 Ferrari 360 Modena body, are the body post holes compatible with the TT02?

Yes, as far as I know, the Ferrari body's holes would fit, just like any other 190mm Tamiya body out there. The TT02 has reversible rear body posts, which means that even the older bodies would be compatible.

The gear diff's are not consistent enough, you have to refill the gear diff's very often to get the right feeling and they leak a lot.
Or when you use AW grease the feeling at the start isn't the same as when you ran the car once or twice.
That's what makes the ball diff's a better choice, they are more consistent and moore smooth with less noice.
Currently i'm testing the car with a 17.5T motor and still i'm improving my lap times. Tonight and saterday i will be testing some setup changes.

Ride height might not be so good afterwards, though.
