I took my TT02 out today and ran through a couple packs for fun. The rear diff is filled with badhorsie diff locking grease now and the rear end feels more stable than before (it's rear wheel drive only). It's significantly stickier than Tamiya anti-wear grease. The cheapie 19 turn brushed motor in it feels faster now for some reason. Maybe I had throttle EPA turned down before and didn't realize it.

Looking to get some new wheels for my Subaru rally and Mustang GT4 bodies

I love the looks of the Tamiya wheels, but they are too fragile and break quite often

Suggestions?

Kit Tamiya wheels are fragile but the racing wheels are bullet proof!
eBay
Tamiya 53468 RC 24mm Mesh Wheels-4pcs - White/ +2 offset.

I've used these for USGT for years. Never broken one or even cracked one.

They do look great!

Any idea what material it’s made of and if it’s 26mm? I don’t see any information online

I have no idea about the material they are made of, but from my point of view their durability is more than okay.
Width is 26mm and have a really nice shiny finish (if that matters)

Hey guys , I am thinking of getting into the hobby and starting with a TT02 as my first car, one of these maybe --> Tamiya 1/10 Raikiri GT On-Road 4WD Kit ?

Do you have some suggestions of upgrade parts I should consider when starting off? I read maybe bearings and a motor mount? I don't really know I'm pretty new. I have a battery charger from my RC plane days.
I will need battery, TX, and servo for sure.
Also paint for the body.....

Ballbearings is a good first choice. If you are new then I would wait before buying other tuning parts. You could easily spent a lot money on tuning parts for this chassis. Just wait and see what is not like you would want it. The Raikiri is a decent choice.
You run on a parking lot or track? The latter, then ask what the other guys run and have fun with and join them

For battery just a normal 2S lipo with around 6000mah. Servo should be medium fast 0,09s/45 degree, around 60$. Transmitter is a little religion. You can go for a cheaper system for the first months. Then if you love it and want to get more serious, go for a Sanwa system (MT-4 or equal). This is of course my personal experience. After the switch to this brand, I never had any problem and could do a better job more easy on track.
Colorwise should the normal Tamiya PS be the best for the first race livery.
