Exactly as Harsh Guys says.....send him a list of what you need and he will give you a price for the parts, a price for using paypal, a shipping price and a total.

I guarantee you wont believe how cheap it is!!!

Rainbow Ten do the same thing.

Waiting on some stuff to arrive as we speak - will report when it arrives

Buying 415MSX Parts

WEB Listing/Inquries

Rainbow10.....I do not remember any Paypal fees although its been awhile since I have ordered from them. There shipping is about the same quickness.
There instock is listed everyday.

Rc champ is a good place to order from.....although the Paypal fees 7% on ($400)larger items could cost as much as the shipping charges ($40 shipping/33fees USD) just like state taxes in some places ....that when the price become more comparable to shore prices. ie Car kits/ radios. For Small part the prices are great. The Shipping is quick 2 to 3 days to the Eastern shores although Hong Kong EMS delivery on Sunday .
PS: do not be in a rush for whatever you may order.... with so many e/m's with questions and "non-buyers"....it will hold to your ordering process....Sometime it will take as long as 4 days or as short as 1 day to complete an order......But I've used them for atleast 2yrs straight.

Thanks for the info TRF 415 MSX Guys.
-Those Aluminum Wheel Axles sound like they`ll most likely bend in a crash(only in a crash) on My TB Evo 5. I use a 19-Turn Motor in it(the Aluminum Wheel Axles shouldn`t bend from the power of a 19-Turn Motor.....?).

I`ll get both items; the Aluminum Wheel Axles and the other Rear Uprights.....(Total: $97.00).....crazy Tamiya prices.
-I think those are the only parts that`s missing from the TB Evo 5 that would make it a TRF TB Evo 5.....Ha Ha!

Thanks

Take Care

Only if you are pro, then go for the LW wheel axle. They will NOT tolerate a small tap on the board, or your car got flipped over.

For an average racer, stick with the steel wheel axle.

I haven't had a single problem with the LW axles. I've had them on since October racing 2-3 times a month in stock. I have the occasional crash but nothing massive and they're fine. I'll probably get the steel axles for the outdoor season just in case as i'll be running 19t.

I am NOT a pro myself. I am only an average driver

There should be a "PRO's only" list of parts. And the LW axles are at the top. Along with lightweight bodies, 6T motors, motor magnet zappers, shock dynos, full ceramic bearings...

I switched to the steel ones too.

Been reading a lot of the posts on your guys thread and haven't posted anything on it. I am an owner of a 415 MSX car and have a question. I have a 13.5 motor and a 4300 motor. I am currently running a 100 tooth spur and a 36 pinion. What I would like to know...am I way off on my gear ratio? The car seems to be pretty decent in speed and power. I am running the nitrite arm because of heat, and it only runs around 109 degrees. Keep in mind where I race in MI I am the only 415 car in a group of T2s and 007 cars. I am holding my own but I am not sure I am geared right. If anybody can tell me what I should gear either of the motors I would appreciate it. The Novak website has been no help. The gear ratios for this motor must be a big secret! So any help would be appreciated...thank you.

I am running Rubber Tires on a large indoor carpet track approx 48 x 96 running a Novak GTB and 13.5 with a sintered rotor (runs about 20 degrees cooler than the stock nitrate arm)

I'm Geared 91 x 44 and this thing SCREEEEEM's. Almost as fast as my 4300.

That's a 42.55mm or a1.675 inch roll-out. (4.65 gear ratio) Temps out @ 144 degree's

If you want the new steering system your better off buying the MSXX. Too much hastle to convert. Direct center pully is the way to go!
Just my 2$

1. for the pulley system, i can use back the original belts comes with 415msx?
2. If i were use front ball diff, is the diff pulley same as TA05 36T?
