My local distrubutor sells it.You could ask yours to special order from Tamiya. Or you could order online...

The largest I've fit into the MRE is a 106 spur with the stock setting. You can flip the bearing holder upside down and you can fit even larger ones.

Thanks for the info charles, FYI in the UK Trickbits Spur gears (available from Helger Distribution) are Xenon, they even have it stamped on them!

How much should I tighten the long belt in MRE? It keeps going left and right a little bit after I tightened it to the max. Any advice?

you've tightened it too the max ??

Don't worry about the belt wandering on the pulleys... you want the belt as loose as possible, without it skipping. This way the car will be most efficient. At the moment, if the belt is fully tight, your putting extra drag into the drivetrain.

You place it perpendicular ( 90 degree ) to wheels. If you see upper or lower gap between the wheel and camber gauge, then.... it means you need to correct the camber at the upper link. It has four measurements if I'm not mistaken : 0 degree, 0.5 degree, 1 deg, 2 deg.
