I did mount the 48T pinion in combination with a 90T spur, cause i Always use tamiya spurs and pinions and that's the smallest spur tamiya has.

Hi guys,

Got my TT-02 kit, read a bit of the manual, and will be building it during weekend, just wanna know your setups while building, in the manual there's a 'short' and 'wide' setup, and i'm just planning to go 'wide' and all 'standard' for the rest. Will it be ok or should i go 'standard' all around? And with the 'wide' setup, will the four wheels be too wide for the body shell and looks akward?
Also, is there anything i should know before the build?
I'm just new with this on road thing and this is gonna be my first build.

Thanks a lot for any help i can get.

The manual will tell you what to do to fit with your shell. If you want to use std shells do the standard setting

here is a build review which covers all the steps

Stage one shows where to look in the manual

Bearings and Upgrade the front and rear knuckles. Stock break way too easy. Aftermarket front knuckles allow more turn and in bump go to far and let dog one pop out. So need Cvds

My little girl drove the TT-02 a week ago in a junior race and she did break 2 steering blocks, luckely i was able to fix them but this is really a spare part you need to have.
They are indeed very weak.
I've also build an extra bridge at the front of the steering arms, this will reduce a lot of steering slob.

ahhh, experience this several times, even on light impact with other car. what i did before changing to alums is i added anti wear grease. So the twist and friction is quite draggy but smooth. added shims on the upper arms so the knuckles doenst wobble on turns. and tightly screwed the bottom part of the knuckle and a .2 or .3mm extra screw space on top.

We can't use alu suspension parts, we can only use Original tamiya parts at the belgian tamiyacup series.

I bought 12 tto2 for rentals at our track and have broken 18 rear knuckles now replaced with alu. I had one kid break 5 in about 40 mins and was ok driver lol. Tamiya has dropped the ball on this one

I've mounted a Speedpassion V3 21.5T motor with a cirtix stock club esc, will test this combo thursday night at our club that will be re-opened after a summer stop of 6 weeks.
Very excited about driving the car on carpet, have high hopes.

Those were the things i did when i use plastic knuckles. Dont let the arms wobble so much and use anti wear grease.

Hi, I am looking to get back into the hobby after a long break. The last car I has was a TB01 would this be a good car? I am also looking at the TB04 but this is already available at my local hobby store. Also can you get a front one way for this car?

I thought the TT-01 front one-way option part (53671) is a direct fit for the tt-02 chassis.
