Zx-s Evolution from ... parts ?
Posted: Thu Nov 19, 2020 12:27 pm
Hi
I was not lucky enough to get my hands on a mint & original Zx-s evo' so, 2 years ago, to achieve my little collection of Lazer family (from Lazer ZX to Zx-7), I had the absurd idea to collect Zx-s parts on internet, after seeing Fibre-Lyte carbone parts on their website. I know this kyosho kit is one of the rarest, my goal is to have a "zx-s like", maybe not a fully original one. I didn't count the amount of money at this time, but... it's certainly the most expensive kit I have now
And still some missing parts 
With the help of some friends, forums and ebay, here is the result of all the purchase:
After looking for parts during months and months, I finally try a first assembly test.
Some parts are missing, like the front bumper and the front upper arms, as well as some plastic parts of the rear bulkhead. I plan to use some extra ZX-5 shock absorber I have in spares.
If I never found these missing parts, I will make them with CNC machining, but I have to make all the measurements... only time will tell
Actually I am waiting for the motor plate, that is somewhere between Australia and France...
Cheers
