Yours is the best looking TT02 I have seen. And I really like it in black than in blue. Looks like that $175 convert kit doesn't include shocks, but does it include drive shafts and outdrive hubs for the diff? I like how they add down stops and sway bars option, and also the rear toe adjustment as well.

So I'm almost done with the 911 headlight buckets, and got sidetracked and whipped up some prototype splitters for the Evo body and the 911 RSR body (The RSR build is almost complete and looks incredible IMO).
I used an existing print on thingiverse for the 1991 Audi V8 splitter.

Added cutouts for wider tires, and trimmed to fit the bodies. Need more filament before I can finally print some prototypes and make adjustments for the final versions.

Thanks bud! I haven't had the chance to order some filament yet, So I have yet to print and test out the 2 splitters I modified. I'm sure they'll need a little tweaking. For the Carrera splitter I'd like to better match the outcrop on the lower front bumper instead of just the long radius curve.
I also am trying to figure out a way to turn one of the splitters into a rear diffuser for the speed run rig. I'm positive I can make it work, I'll just have to get creative. Once I get a little further into Tinkercad, I may try my hand at some side skirts as well.

They were side by side pipes (oo) with a metal strip for attaching. I used my dremel to cut long ways to make it two single exhaust tips with a thin, long strip of metal protruding from the top. I then bent the metal to fit the curve inside the back bumper, and used Gorilla double sided tape.

So I got busy today on the diffuser for the 50927 Lancer Evo VII body.
it's a one-off, as it's designed to mount specifically on the Yeah Racing Adjustable Toe Mount TATT-019BU.
I plan to make the others to mount on the standard bumper mount though. This is really just making sure I can do it, so subsequent designs will have improvements.
The deck is 3mm thick and the wings are 2mm thick, it has a centering ridge and also protrusions around the screw holes so they'll sit inside the countersunk holes in the YR mount without breaking the piece when tightened down. Also a cutout specifically for the muffler I have mounted on my body.
I really need to get some filament. But it should fit pretty well.

Before I messed with the headlight buckets, I'd never done it before. The diffuser is the first piece I built from scratch.
You should check out TinkerCad. It's a Cad website, and it's free. It's pretty easy to use for me but there are loads of free tutorials out there

If you download the Tamiya TT-02D Type-S PDF manual from Tamiya, towards the end is a setup sheet (page 25). While I realize this isn't exactly what you are asking for, this setup sheet is fairly detailed and might be better than nothing. Here is a link on Tamiya.com where you can download their R/C manuals
https://www.tamiya.com/english/rc/manuals.htm
Addionally you can find a setup sheet for the Tamiya TT02 Type-SR in the manual (page 22). This kits comes with Tamiya Part# 54967 (https://www.tamiyausa.com/shop/optio...ble-sus-mount/) which allows much more adjustment for rear toe. Obviously the Type-S kits use different suspension components than the regular & R kits.
----------
I did a quick google search and found the following website that has an online editable setup sheet for the Tamiya TT-02 Type S kit. Again this isn't specifically for the R or RR kits, but you might find it helpful.

I'm sure if someone did an exhaustive internet search they might find a basic TT-02 or TT-02 R/RR setup sheet. However since Tamiya provides their manuals in PDF format it wouldn't be too difficult for someone to create their own custom setup sheet for personal use using an existing setup sheet.
Hope this information helps.

Thanks for the reply. I have a TT02-SR sheet that I am working on. I am however after a setting sheet for the std TT02 Style Chassis. I know one exists (in paper form at least), I just do not have one to scan etc.
