Xray T2/007/008 differences
I am currently looking to upgrade to a better chassis from my pro4 and am looking into the xray line of cars. I have found a pretty cheap Xray T2 and was wondering what the differences between the T2 to the 007 and to the 008 are and if its possible to upgrade it. This is for a rubber car if that matters at all

well i found a base T2 for a really cheap price and figured i could at least upgrade it to a 007 EU or hopefully most everything is the same incase something breaks
|
true If your budget tight go for 007 ;)
|
So can a T2 be upgraded to a 007? And if so what parts are needed?

Shadow you cant go wrong with the 007 EU kit, most of us that you run with at Primetime run that chassis and are very competitive. Only like 4 guys are running the 008

EU Spec US Spec It would prolly be a lot cheaper in the long run to just get a used 007 then upgrading a used T2. |

cool deal you cant go wrong with any of those three

Ok i found a 007 in my price range but the problem is that its a US spec car and i run rubber. is it worth it to convert to the EU or should i just keep waiting for a EU spec car to come around? And if its worth it to convert what would i need to do so?
