R/C Tech Forums - Tamiya TT02 Thread

All the upgrades are Tamiya on all three but customized the way I liked between the three, I am just not a fan of the adjustable upper arm set for TT-02 (Tamiya #54874). Here are upgrades I currently have installed on TT-02SR:

Nice, but out of curiosity: why all three? A fully modified R is the same as a fully modified RR (while the Type S, SR and SRX have the different suspension)?

What a nice family :)

Mine is not as nice but I started putting together static chassis (just enough to hold a body) for all the TT02 and TT01e bodies I haven't used because I cannot fathom destroying 8-10 hours of paint and decal work lol.

Are these the right parts for upgrades to a TT-02? Our rules allow shocksm universales, metal motor mount, bearings an screws.

Is there a better shock to go with? I think someone mentioned a 3racing shock. I might end up with a S6/4 so maybe that would be a better way.

Obviously there are some duplicates. Are the yeah racing pieces better than Tamiya? They're cheaper for sure.

Yeah racing tt02-015 Universals
Yeah racing tt02-017 universal cups
53792 Tamiya universals

R, RR, SR - All modified

You need to add an S and the new SRX to the list and you’ll be complete

Honestly I just like building but also a couple of co-workers got TT-02 kits and wanted a brushed option to run with them in similar power output, but the Tamiya RZ is so fast it was not fair :)

And SRX on pre-order

All painted and decaled up to go racing this weekend. Still need to mount the mirror and trim the body posts.

Raman locally we run a class called Scale Spec. Indoor rules require ROAR 25.5 motors and you can use either VTA or USGT wheel/tires. Any scale body is currently accepted. I normally run a TA07, but the plan is to try out the TT02 just to see how far off pace it is. The heavy VTA wheel/tire combo, heavy Tamiya body, and possibly it being a TT02 chassis are all likely points against it being competitive. I built the TT02 chassis for GT Pro Spec, but I only have one TCS race I'm planning on attending, so I figured I'd get some use out of it for now :) Eventually it will go back to a 257mm wheelbase and likely have either a Ford GT or Mustang GT4 body adorning it.

OVA you're absolutely right. Scale appearance before all else! :D You think you'll find time to travel down to Yacolt to race with us one of these days?
