Here is another stock TT-02 that I'm upgrading to a fun racer/basher/possible rally car. Red is the theme on this car.

- servo = ARMMA ADS-5 (AR390133) - plastic gear servo
- esc = Hobbywing Quickrun 1060 - 2s or 3s brushed
- dampers = Tamiya 53155 (https://www.tamiyausa.com/shop/optio...n-alum-damper/)
- wheels = Tamiya 84253 (discontinued)
- battery = Venom Reaction 50c 2S 4000mah (old battery)
- *suspension = Tamiya 54874 Adjustable Upper Suspension (https://www.tamiyausa.com/shop/optio...per-arm-set-3/)

(EDIT - I posted incorrect information about using the Adjustable Upper suspension. Thanks SIMPLE for pointing this out. Here is the correct info from Tamiya USA)
• Compatible with TT-02, TT-02R, TT-02RR and TT-02D chassis cars.
• Cannot be used with Item 54639. If using with Item 53792, use Item 42236 for adjustment.

Tamiya 54639 (https://www.tamiyausa.com/shop/optio...-stay-front-2/) is a discontinued Carbon Damper Stay Front (shock tower).

Tamiya 54947 (https://www.tamiyausa.com/shop/optio...amper-stay-ii/) is the current version of the Carbon damper Stay that can be used on the front or rear of a TT-02/TT-02R/RR or TT-02D. The TT-02 S models have their own version of a FRP or carbon fiber damper stay and adjustable camber links.

Sorry for posting incorrect info earlier.

I probably will throw a red Yeah Racing 30mm fan on this kit for cooling. Not much more red the car really "needs". There is a red hard Tamiya TT-02 chassis that comes with the Mazda 3 kit (58671-A - https://www.tamiyausa.com/shop/110-4...t/rc-mazda3-2/). Yeah Racing makes a couple of different red upgrade kits but I really don't want to spend that much. There are a few other companies that make a red shaft and red steering that are much less expensive

Still figuring out how I want to clean up the wiring and if I want to mount any electronics in the battery tray (shorty lipo)

Enjoy
