New guy here...

Post by Hotrodvw »

Here's a few pics of my old World's Team car, and my MX-4. I shouldn't have sold the world's car I know, but I wasn't using it. It was wicked fast and quite competititve. Anyone else here fit a MX-4 body and pan to a YZ-10 chassis? I did LOL

Hey,

Welcome to the forum. Lots of great individuals here and heaps of excellent information.

Nice cars. I love all things Yokomo and that YZ10 looks real good. I can see some subtle factory modifications. Is that front shock on the YZ10 standard? Looks thicker to me.

I have no idea. That's the way I got it, so it must be upgraded to a "team" part.
I have a boat load of wheels and tires for it still.

the shocks on YZ10 are stock parts for MX-4. and they look great on YZ10 with your MX-4 body

You're right. I remember now changing them over to the MX-4. I forgot that the shocks from the MX-4 weren't as nice. 8)

I have three sets of wheels and plenty of tires to mount to them. I also have these spares I've been picking up. Most of them I've had for over a decade. I pat myself on the back for thinking ahead LOL. I alreadyy run the gold CVD's and gold Shock shafts on it, hopefully I don't break many.

I have quite a few sets of wheels/tires for the YZ-10. Anyone making adapters so I can run them on my MX-4? If not, I assume there's a market for them out there since I can't use them....?

As far as adaptors go I'm not sure. For what Yokomo was there should be something like that floating around...but then again, I'm outta my element with these yet :lol:

I picked up a motor lathe and went nuts building motors. I have (2) 14x2, a 11x2, a 11x3 and a 13x3, all fresh cut with new brushes and ready to roll. Bulding motors is kinda fun when you have all of the parts you need in stock and ready to go. The right tools make the job almost pleasurable...................almost.
