Not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet, but most of the major stores in Japan are expecting to get the RB6 in store by mid September and they will be 30800yen. With currency conversion, thats roughly $400 USD.

Not sure how much a kit would cost to send by EMS from Japan, but even if its $60, it will be cheaper to get from JP than US for us Aussies.

I hope the parts have the same discount, so that I can upgrade my RB5 for less.

I was at west coast all day yesterday and got to watch all the big boys run a full day of qualifiers. Great racing all around. I was able to sit and talk with tebo for a little bit (a very nice and very approachable guy, btw) and I was asking about some of the differences between the 5 and the 6, and while he admitted that he didn't have much time on the car, he did say that was more stable due to the longer wheelbase, but also was a bit more responsive due to the chassis. I got to hold it a bit in the pits and get close look... And I have to say, the photos we've seen so far don't do the car any justice... It's straight up gorgeous. Tebo was running the production steering rack, and it was plastic.

Yes it's the same, the RM tranny is identical except for the wing mounts are now integrated into the case.
Infernos Only has an RB6 parts section up and they are listing most of the parts and offering preorders on parts too. FYI the alloy chassis is $109.99!!!

Yup that's the one10. I use it in 4WD for it's size/weight/balance left to right. Almost 15g lighter than other RSx servos. I guess the RB6 likes to be light up front.
As for the RB5, the one10 has the same profile as a standard servo, just shorter, so it'll fit just fine.

Car looks better in person. What a cool guy. I got to talk to him about it last night. He really likes it. Said he does not have to drive it as hard. He did state that he was still working on the rear end of the car. Not yet happy with it.
Car not yet dialed and qualified 2nd place. Ummm could be give Cav a run for his money in the mains?
