I have this box coming to me for x-mas. I always wanted a ProFormance or ProFormanance :? kit and can’t be more happy with the sweet price I paid for it even though some parts are missing.

I came across these Trinity 48P machined delrin spur gears for the AE V2 slipper. The gears were marked down in price so I grabbed them.

They look really nice. Anybody tried them?

You can't get much of anything from Tower Hobbies but you can from Conklin Performance Designs :mrgreen:

Transverse battery cups and one of Brian's new battery straps.

FYI, the strap was designed to be used rotated counterclockwise from how you have it, but it can certainly be used how you have it as well. 8)

For a Yokomo yz834b Dogfighter I received a pair of mint top front suspension arms and one mint lower arm .
For a Hirobo Zerda I received a pair of wheel axles and the rubber bellows for the first belt cover .
I'm absurdly pleased with the top suspension arms for the Dogfighter , I had a pair of alloy ones fitted and I've been looking for the proper ones for over a year , way too expensive but it's Christmas right !
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

Yes the belt cover bellows to let the upper suspension link through .
I can't get on the pc right now to do a link but search eBay for "VINTAGE HIROBO soufflet (x1) " seller name is rc_broc_auto (16857) , he still has two in stock .
I'm not 100% sure it's the right one , it's a tapered bellows rather than an oval end to be glued in place and a straight bellows but what arrived is looking like it will fit but I have yet to receive my Zerda to check , they are pretty cheap so I took a punt .
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

She's a bit worn out....

Should clean up all right, with the addition of a spare chassis plastics set. Nice and cheap, too!
