These are items that will actually make a difference to the performance of the car. Most of the others are just cosmetic. Visit www.nitrokb.com

Avoid 3 racing and other crap out there. Kawahara is the real deal!

Mate' I took your advice got the Kawahara parts thanks mate.....

Drive Belts

Hey guys,,

Can the MTX-3 drive belts fit on the MTX-4..?? I'm really running out of patience with my LHS as it's been almost a month and still no belts..

I found a K-Factory drive belt set on line for a pretty good price..

Thanks and TC..

im pretty sure the should fit. the two cars have different ratios. so it would be safe to say if it fit, the teeth may cause a difference in how the car drives. over/underdrive

if i am wrong, anyone correct me

I am 99.9% sure that the belts are not interchangeable. They have different part numbers which is a good way to tell.

If you are in the USA, there are plenty of mail order places to get parts if your local hobby shop is not handling this.

Try clicking on the team taylor link in my signature line. He has most of the parts for an MTX4 in stock.

Rear belt and middle belt are different, cannot be use interchangebly. I try it already.

Take out your belt and bring it to other LHS for 1 to 1 measurement with other brands ?

Or go direct to Mugen Shoptron ?
