Gear mesh is a perfect fit. You even need to use a dremel to get some extra free space directly above the pinion, but this modification is done in a few minutes and it's very easy. So when you need to use tamiya spur/pinions this is the maximum ratio you can use on the TT-02. Seems that 46/47 is the last pinion with 0,4 module that fits under the gear cover without touching. 50 needs already quite a good amount of dremeling I guess? I got my Yeah racing motor mount today, and installed the longest combo I had: 80t spur gear with 51 pinion in module 0,4. Ratio is 4,08 then. But fitting the gear cover is not possible. Nearly 2mm uplift for the cover. Guess using the dremel would make a hole in the cover. But with a bit of ABS and glue, this hole can be closed easily.:lol: Maybe I have to try that mod the next days... Br, Matthias |
It is possible to mount a 48T pinion without any modifications needed to the cover.
I didn't had to use the dremel that much, i guess less then 0.5mm. The problem you've mentioned about the cover is the shape that doesn't allow the motor to be moved a lot towards the center of the car. Cause in that case you need to modify the cover a lot more then i did. I haven't used the yeah racing motor mount yet, but i will do that in the next weeks. |
I have no rubbing with my rw racing 49t pinion. The motor cover can warp if you screw it down too much.

I did mount the 48T pinion in combination with a 90T spur, cause i Always use tamiya spurs and pinions and that's the smallest spur tamiya has.

Here are some pictures of my fresh painted Ferrari 458 body for my TA06 PRO, TA05R and my TT-02.
No decals used only paint, will be testing the body this wknd. http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps4a973025.jpg http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps807976a1.jpg http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps9984a0cf.jpg http://i946.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps165f8854.jpg |
Hi guys,
Got my TT-02 kit, read a bit of the manual, and will be building it during weekend, just wanna know your setups while building, in the manual there's a 'short' and 'wide' setup, and i'm just planning to go 'wide' and all 'standard' for the rest. Will it be ok or should i go 'standard' all around? And with the 'wide' setup, will the four wheels be too wide for the body shell and looks akward? Also, is there anything i should know before the build? I'm just new with this on road thing and this is gonna be my first build. Thanks a lot for any help i can get. |
The manual will tell you what to do to fit with your shell. If you want to use std shells do the standard setting
here is a build review which covers all the steps http://www.thercracer.com/2013/05/ta...nd-review.html Stage one shows where to look in the manual |
Hi Qatmix,
Thanks a lot for all the help, actually i've been following this thread, and thank you so much for all the great reviews and contributions to this thread, and please keep 'em coming sir, cheers |
Bearings and Upgrade the front and rear knuckles. Stock break way too easy. Aftermarket front knuckles allow more turn and in bump go to far and let dog one pop out. So need Cvds
|
My little girl drove the TT-02 a week ago in a junior race and she did break 2 steering blocks, luckely i was able to fix them but this is really a spare part you need to have.
They are indeed very weak. I've also build an extra bridge at the front of the steering arms, this will reduce a lot of steering slob. |

ahhh, experience this several times, even on light impact with other car. what i did before changing to alums is i added anti wear grease. So the twist and friction is quite draggy but smooth. added shims on the upper arms so the knuckles doenst wobble on turns. and tightly screwed the bottom part of the knuckle and a .2 or .3mm extra screw space on top.

I bought 12 tto2 for rentals at our track and have broken 18 rear knuckles now replaced with alu. I had one kid break 5 in about 40 mins and was ok driver lol. Tamiya has dropped the ball on this one
