If yes what size can be use.

Thank you, Alain.
48dp is the finest pitch offered by schumacher. 66 and 70T are the common sizes. http://www.racing-cars.com/sp/category/New_Cars_and_Parts/subcategory/SupaStox/templateid/12/searchbox7/Speed_Secret_-_Option_Parts.html

You bet! We're following the BRCA rules which only allow 48 and 32 pitch gears.

Drop a message to Schumacher, they will give you the info. Not sure if it's possible as been a while since I had one. They might have an axle option that fits https://www.racing-cars.com/contact-us

This is great advice and I'd have recommended the same.

My understanding is you'd definitely need a different differential for the 3 hole mounts. What I don't know is how the metric bearings for the kit SupaStox GT rear axle would work with that, as it is likely that new differential and axle would be imperial.

Assuming you want to also run the latest GT12 or 12th front wheels, then again it would be new front axles as well given the SupaStox GT was again metric and the new wheels and bearings are imperial.

Which is where Schumacher can advise if it is feasible, and just how many parts it would need if it is.

Can't you still get the old style wheels/tyres somewhere? If it is a control tyre rule which limits it to newer 3 hole style then have a word with the club/organisers to make an exception. The SSGT was ok for it's time but is a fair way off the newer cars so as long as you use tyres with a similar shore rating you won't have any advantage

I bought a cheap SSGT Roller but not thought about the rims... and local Wintercup uses a Hspeed tire with 3 holes... maybe I sell the ssgt again and buy a atom but not sure. I still bougth a pair of tyres so I can drive it for fun.
thanks for your help, I hoped I can change just some parts!

Looks interesting and well made. However, I don't understand why they would use bushings up font and there doesn't seem to be a diff of any kind. The proprietary foam wheels and spur gears has me taking a pass and I haven't seen 32P gears on electrics in decades either. They should have used standard wheel hexes and standard mini rubber rims and tires as sold by HPI and Tamiya.
