- COMCOM'ed '93 Works (Fibre-Lyte background history page 4)
Following my recent thread about the COMCOM Kyosho Lazer carbon tub, I wanted to present this old dog still sitting in its '94 juice. I plan to restore it with white ball cups all around (still need to locate them), white shock parts (help again please!) and maybe new Fybre-Lite top deck, shock towers and steering brace as they were dyed by the previous owner together with the white parts and show a blue color that doesn't match the tub, details... I already sourced a pair of new front a-arms as these were cut at some point. Oh well, this will be a long-term project for sure. All the electronics came with it, neat stuff, ain't it?

Re: - COMCOM'ed '93 Works -
Yep, all the possible COMCOM parts are there, I'll take some pics of the front end tomorrow. Thanks for keeping an eye open Gary, I am mainly after no less than 16 white Yokie ball cups and white plastic shock parts. This project must be like number 10 on my project list, so I won't touch it anytime soon unless I suddelnly find all the needed parts.

Re: - COMCOM'ed '93 Works -
I'll try to snag some for you this weekend. There is nothing special there though besides drilled and lightened front magnesium bulkhead and a standard front Works '93 set-up with COMCOM braces. This will be a very long-term project as I need to source quite a lot of parts for what I would like it to look like.

Very nice, such a cool period piece, I remember that ESC I had one back when racing YR-4's in the Keil DTM series. Love the old LRP Stuff.

i think that's a bunch of bull. they also had a sweet tub for the yok mr-4 touring car. i think they just thought that they weren't getting what it was suppose to cost. or, yokomo told them to cut it out.

Re: - COMCOM'ed '93 Works -
Does anyone know whether these YR-4 front and rear bulkheads will fit this '93 based car?
