Default Tamiya diff in a Phi

If anyone is interested, you can fit a Tamiya TA05 diff into the rear of the Phi. The one in the pics uses Corally pulley, diff balls, and diff rings. Everything else is out of the TA05 diff. You have to add a bunch of 10mm shims to take up the slack and get the pulley centered. It also helps to move the bearings to the inside of the bearing holders. If you run the 36T pulley you can use a tamiya diff straight out of the box and it will drop right in. In the limited testing i've done with it it works great and seems to stay smoother longer than the stock diff, especially on outdoor tracks.
