hi, i think i bought the old chassis from dinball a while back and i was wondering if there was anyway to tell if you got the bad chassis ones. mine came in the exact packaging that the ones that you are selling. i read that the older ones were tweaked? is this true. o and i saw those pics of that new layout with the turnbuckle steering rear adjustable camber, and resin/nylon bushings. do you know where i can purchase this kit? thanks

The mini-xj you are refering too, at this time atleast in Japan can`t be located yet. But I don`t even think they are on the market yet.

Ask usagi about that new kit.hehe The old chassis look the same but you can check the front steering balls if the top and bottom ones are both turned by a wrench than you have the older version. If only the bottom one id you have the newest one available.

Hey guys, I just placed an order at dinball but no sure what version they are selling now. What was the problem anyway?

Thanks in advance.

here is the deal with the old and the XJ. From seem views its not a new chassy, but just a few mods. But they car is different, the xj(which maybe made in japan) and th eothr which is HK made model. Dinball well i don`t like then and their over charging of shipping. But either way, you will enjoy your mini-x. There are a few that have them here and they seem very happy...........

Thanks Usagi, I also noticed that dinball charges item based upon its weight chart. If your order exceeds the limit, they will charge you other rate. By the way, do you know any Japan hobby shop does shipping to US? Thanks in advance.

Thats a hard questen you answer, 9 out of 10 don`t ship to the usa. Ther eis a agreements between the r/c companies and the shops not to sell to overseas buys thur the internet. But some times they do sell. But it far and inbetween. Rainbow 10 in japan sells. But they charge alot retail prices and shipping is bad prices.
