Words are hollow, pictures are everything.

You must be the first person in the world to have the Anza kit. AFAIK it still isn't even released yet.

ok here are some pics so far











i only got the chassis kit. not the complete kit. i wanted to still use the pro-trac kit. everything fits decent. i had a little issue with the rear shock tower bolting on. after a few tries it fit. for some unknown reason they didnt include the 4mm screws for the mounting the front bulk or the tranny to the chassis. so i am getting some new ones tomorrow. i figured i will try the stock layout with the esc and reciver just to see. when i switch it over the the sidewinder i'm going to mount the esc behind the battery and the reciver infront of the battery behind the servo. everything on the centerline..

How much was it, when did it even go on sale?

[toka100]

they hit the stores today. at least my store it did. we got 2 complete sets in plus my kit.... it was 120 for the chassis kit. then about another 50 for the carbon fiber shock towers. not sure on the hub carrier set. i will find out tomorrow.

And you're from...?

[toka100]

im in wyoming of all places. not normally the first place to get the new stuff. BUT i do work at hobbytown. so i knew they were coming

[Raul Garcia]

We got ours today too. Almost every part too.

[RickM]

Looking at your pics (thanks for getting the pics loaded btw) I am wondering what bellcranks you are running? The rig looks great.

[toka100]

i think they might be integy. they were on a roller i picked up for 40 buxs. they have the ball bearings in them so i just slapped them in to look nicer then the stock white plastic.

comparison shots between a box stock brushed slash and the new anza chassis/proline slash.




i have already changed out the stock electronics with my sw2 . everything fits right down the centerline. the sw tucks real nice into the space inside the rear bulkhead. the sr300 reciver COULD actually fit ontop of the foam block between the battery and the servo but i wasnt sure how well it would stay there so i mounted above the servo on the cf plate. everything is very balanced and neatly placed now. the rear was within 1oz side to side and the front was a little over 2oz side to side.

Apparently my screw pack didn't contain enough of the right screws. Luckily I had some other spares I could use. Although, I'm going to tear it down again and re-apply locktite to everything.

[bks]

nice wont one

[07Forester]

Toka, can you take an upclose pic of the rear anza brace for me where it mounts to the chassis?

[brushlessguy]

Are you not running a front arm hinge brace?? As well you should consider changing the front bumper to the Proline one. You can use the front bumper brace with it. I switched mine out because I run a sway bar kit and it uses the front bumper support as a mounting point. But it does provide a lot more strength to the front bumper

Curious; RX8 on a SCX10. What motor are you using?
The Slash looks great.

[mattyhawk]

Very nice, now let the durability testing commence! I wonder if that chassis is going to stand up to landing center on an apex on a 1/8th size track.

[Stone2192]

After spending all that on that great looking chassis, I would spring for a new gearbox off ebay for the $30 / $40 bucks. Thinking of what most slash owners do, an example would be to buy a Porsche, and stick their Toyota transmission in it and call it a Toyota. They should make a chassis similar to that with different rear bulkheads, if you own a losi or AE buy that bulkhead and bam! instant hi end chassis to fit your favorite flavor transmisson.
