Associated TC3 Hop up
I have just bourgt a TC3 have a good charger and 4x3000 batts,
Thinking I want some hop up parts. What hop ups have you guys done, which made the difference.
The hop up parts (carbon chassis etc...) are available from the US but cant find any in the UK??
Anyone know where I can get them from.
Cheers

Which version of the TC-3?
IRS do some good ally stuff for the TC-3, in blue of course
Spool, Diff halves, dog-bones with pincushions (really stops wear on the ally diff halves), input shafts, etc.
Try the Associated distributor.

convert your TC3 dogbones to the bigger TC4 ones and put lightened or regular steel outdrives in the front diff(and rear if you run mod.) 
threaded shocks if you dont have them already and a carbon composite chassis if you dont have one as well...you should be all set then
sand the bottom flat and round the sides with a 1/4 round bit and do the (move batteries closer to the center(.100) mod)

this is what you could do 
the only stock parts are the FT chassis and the diff cases oh and the motor clamp

I got most of it from microtech racing, rc raceshop, apex, and some off ebay if you get the CML catalogue theres a whole section off TC3 hop ups just type in the number in the search section on the sites and they are there. www.microtechracing.co.uk is the best one to use

What class are you going to race?
The 3000 are okay but GP3300 will give better voltage and punch - fine for 27 and 19turn.
GP3700 are heavier and you need to look and attacking the chassis with a dremel to redistribute the weight.

Ive been using T.J cells since i started racing. Im using some of his cheap 3700's that vented during the matching process but the numbers taken after they had vented were still as good as the other 3700's there really cheap and perfect for stock racing i went from his 3300's to 3700's and id say get 37's if your getting new cells
