My Lazer ZXR-R and Optima Mid Turbo Special - Pics

Post by Dieseler »

Hi all,

I've found this forum whilst looking for parts to complete my mid. I'll be building this to hopefully race in the vintage class. It's already spent far too long sitting idle. This was partially stripped down to be cleaned and built back up. Unfortunatelly I never got around to finishing it and put all the spares in my pit box and all the rolling chassis in a bag. My folks kept the chassis' but threw my pit box on the local dumpster as my dad said 'it was full of junk - only loose parts and screws' - clown!

Hope the pics work and would appreciate it if you guys can give me some help.
Image I have found just about everything and have associated shocks but would like some original golds again - any suggestions?

The keen eyed will notice the mid, not the lazer, has a team tanaplan 48dp spur and conversion collar which handily will allow me to run modern pinions and spurs.

Thanks for the welcome!

Yes I have lots of pictures, i've put some running gear in the ZXRR and busy cleaning and rebuilding the mid with lots of NIP old parts i've sourced.

Found some new front and rear gearbox housing, new wishbones, UJ drive shafts, new ball ends and turn buckles, new top deck, new motor plate, a repro wing mount in black annodised alloy, and some retro kyosho pink wheels (off an alpha or lazer I think!) I even found some retro kyosho screw bags and hubs.

I'm also making some suspension pin retainers out of carbon. I can't seem to find a decent bumper though!

I'm not too fussed about the ZXRR as I cant seem to find a repro body for it. It has an old Parma tomcat one at the minute but its on its last legs and in an old friends race colours!
