3 Racing Sakura D3 CS Drift
#1081
Ok i have ordered one of those servos.
Watching the ssks till next pay. And are you saying I can use the sak-59?
Belt tension wise I have got really mixed reviews. Some people say its wrong some say its fine. My brother in laws mate has a d3 and its belts are fine. He hasnt touched it. So... is it a case of wait till it shows up and see if I need to do anything?

When I first built mine it seemed fine but it stripped teeth. I'd get the washers anyway they come in handy even if you don't need them for that application when you decide to upgrade the suspension to alloy mounts you can use them as the spacers. if you do go alloy suspension mounts don't forget to buy suspension pivot balls
When you come to putting the kit together use some light oil on the screw threads and slowly screw them in if you screw them in to fast it heats up the plastic and can thread the hole

Ok sweet ill keep that in mind.
And up on the gold coast. Got my first taste of track drifting on wednesday night. So hooked now. Luckily I have access to a 80 x80m shed eith oolished convrete floors may just make a track myself.
Still not sure if I will sell the tt01.
2000gtr is sooo nice. Go red with black over fenders and angry eyes.

Yeah I modded my steering and did a camber mod on the tt01 with a fair few other things... I figured it was cheaper to get a d3 cs then cs the tt01. Lol. Recently my 55 degree cvs showed up for it... the wide angle cvs snapped... and dog bones are terrible. Lol. Have actually considered making it rwd and keeping it as a bash around car.

Thats why I purchased these Square CVD they have a 60* angle
Hi and welcome.
Uhmm what you need? Ok a decent sensored motor 8.5T-13.5T also the pinion gear doesn't come with the chassis an 18T or 19T 48P will work and a moderately priced decent servo blue bird a quite good from what I've heard.
The standard CVD's aren't built correctly from factory and don't provide much angle so rebuild 2 for the rear, grind a flat on the pins for the set screws to bite into grease the joint then assemble with thread lock on the set screw. Buy some SAK-X27 SSK's for the front. The front one way SAK-D324. Get some M3 washers ranging from 0.5mm to 1.5mm use them to raise the rear pulley mount and tension the centre belt 0.5mm on the rear screws and 1mm on the front (or 1.5mm depending on how slack your belt is). alternatively you can buy the alloy parts including the rear pulley mount and this will solve that issue and align the pulleys correctly. I'd suggest you get some harder springs for the front either blue or purple. Some of the components like the springs can only be purchased from 3racing.
@viktozzz
if your using the zero FOW did you take the spacer out from between the pulley an the oneway? orientation, the top of the pic is the front of the chassis
@jimmyzrx
what color is that? and the same body as mine and you should have waited lol
