OSRocket is a guy on eBay that pinches engine sleeves for about $25.00 USD (don't know if the price changed?).

Thanks Domo, I'll check it out.

Graeme,

HERE you go. You can just send Jon an e-mail if you have questions.

Dammit his prices have come down - only US$13.99.

JPracing FX21-R03 ABC 8 port sleeve is out at www.jpracing.com. Check it out..

Guys, I just got my FX 12 and one thing I notice is the piston/sleeve is really really TIGHT. It took effort to even crank it with the flywheel attached.

Any suggestions or warnings before i try to break this baby in?...

*Pray my starter motor doesn't smoke!!!

your going to have to loosen the glow plug and still use plier ou fly wheel

I would suggest using a heat gun or a blow dryer to heat up the engine making it easer on your stater box and you.

hey crashed_1...where did u get the FX12? is it from team HMS Racing?

Yup...from Chris and Gary.

Crashed.. If you did test it , share us the report. I'm eyeing this engine quit sometime I'm comparing NS5,NSR5, And the FX12. My other engines are too nasty need smooth and goodh/end engine.

Of course, who else...
i should have known...i've read some of their emails too.

Hi,

If you guys got them from HMS Malaysia, then I assume that's the one with fully optioned. Did any of you got the 3 ports? Have you checked your sleeve porting design? Is it still the old one or already comes with the newer one (IDM style)?

Thanks

I've got the 5port version and it's with the older sleeve design (it looks exactly like the one on their web). I've yet to try out the engine...will keep you guys posted. I've currently got the RR12L5 and Max S5...both are really good engines as well.

Notti boy...so are you planning to get one for yourself?...

Are you planning to come to Titiwangsa for their Nova race?...Would be fun.

How is tuning this new fx motor? Does the single needle carb offer enough adjustment to get both the high and low rpm ranges tuned in solidly?
