i bought the medium n large ones which r a wee bit too big....so i think the small n medium ones r fine...

Actually the reason it didn't fit was because the mounting holes did not line up the clutch and gearbox. Since i had already drilled another hole to line it up in the Yok there was nowhere to drill another hole. I never intended to run this engine in the MTX-3 anyway.

The crankcase was a bit longer than a novarossi and it would have been a tight fit. I have heard that the newer Rossi's have a new crankcase.

Dont mind me Al, I'm drunk :eek: :)

I just went to home depot and bought a PHAT bag of these assorted caps. it cost me $5.99 for black caps. It has 100 caps.

I use the small & medium caps #B0423, they work fine.

cheers dude, mine order is on my doorstep soon...:nod:

home sweet home...
 

Isn't it great to be home? Will have to cope with the jetlag and spend a few hours catching up with the thread. zzz... :o :o :o

Eddie,

looks like you did some serious shopping over there:)

Hi stefan,

Not many times that my wife would yield a Green Light on let me do the shopping, and once she handed me the PLASTIC, all I did was swipe it, swipe it, and swipe it. :lol:

However, there's catch, though. A lot of Japanese RC Stores demand a 5% surcharge on using any plastic. Add that with the 5% Japanese VAT, it's pretty hefty.

Not to mention that I also had to pay duty fees because the custom jerk at LAX didn't buy about what I said that they were all for "pleasure", not "business". :cry: :cry: :cry:

just wonder how you convinced your wife that your trip to japan were for "business", not for "pleasure" ?

Hi
This probably has been asked and I'm going to ask again. :) I race a MTX2. Lately, I've had a bit of trouble getting parts. Many of them have been BO for more than three weeks. I'm not a noob and I don't hit the boards very often. I hardly ever need to be marshalled. I just stick to darn close to the boards and sometimes I clip and break. The guys at the club are on my back because I missed two races due to a lack of replacement parts. Some want me to get a NTC3 and others say Serpent 705. That's about what everybody runs, I'm the only one racing with a Mugen because it's very fast, I know this car well, I love the feel of it and want to continue with Mugen.

So here are the questions, Is the MTX3 really superior, are the parts easily available. I just want to know if the upgrade is worth it.

Thanks.

people here will certainly tell you MTX3 is the way to go

Which parts are you looking for in particular? I have a box full of assorted MTX-2 parts and one complete MTX-2 car. email me if you are interested.

another sleepless night for Manticore.:lol:

yes, because I have just got some kawahara goodies for my MTX3 tonight !!:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
