Dear RC Racers
As the Tamiya TRF 415 kits are quite new to us here in Australia, and as I have had quite a lot of feed back regarding these kits, its only best that we forward on our comments and considerations that people should make before buying this kit. So far 3 issues have risen that people should be concerned about:
1. Regarding the DIA 3mm x 12mm long threaded grub screws that screw through the front and rear arms, the holes to which you have to screw these into are VERY tight, and the holes require slight drilling out so as to accommodate the grub screw. As these suspension arms are high strength ABS plastic, we have already encountered splitting of the plastic if these holes aren't oversized.
2. To avoid damage to the Blue anodised ball joints during attachment to various plastic components, it is recommended that a screw of similar size and thread is used to "pre-thread" the hole before the installation of the anodised part. This will dramatically reduce scratching made by the Tamiya spanner to these parts.
3. The TRF 415 kit does not include a pinion motor gear! You will need to purchase one of these separate to the kit.
We hope the above information is helpful to potential buyers, and current buyers assembling the kit, alike.
Kind regards,
The Manager

Bk has got a very good point you are using this as a marketing strategy nothing else there are ways to be promoted rather than the ways you are using. There is a saying you need to spend money to make money. So pay to advertise on here rather than this cheap advertising trick.
And may i ask if the MD bit in your email stands for Managing Director becuase you site looks pretty bare and to have emails and signitures like you do would think you were somewhat a company the size of Trinity or Tamiya or something. Sorry this sounds rude however you really come across as trying to sound very important as though you have a multi million dollar company. This you may have if you had atlease spent 40 a month on advertisin on here. Sorry if i sound harsh.
Regards.
And thanks for the info re the 415 however quite a few of my friends have since purchased the 415 and the arms will not split and just one more thing 9 out of 10 kits dont come with pinions anyway.
