Tamiya TA02 Vintage Rc Car Restoration | 30 Years Old!
It's been a minute!
So I recently purchased this TA02... & a few other goodies. ;)
This was actually quite an easy restoration, mainly cleaning, re oiling & greasing etc. The only thing I really suck at, is fixing polycarb bodies.
Keen for more? subscribe, plenty of sweet stuff coming!

    A touring car ran on you? DAMN, the battery receiver is the blame because if anyone of those batteries pop out, these cars can start a runaway if your not careful, use a battery voltage pack that does not make the car runaway but power up the receiver and your controller, using these battery receiver packs will destroy your nitro car…

    A huge blessing in disguise. In my case my friend crashed my HSP Buggy. It ended with a bent chassis and a completely destroyed HPI T3.0 (both side mountings were torn off, which left 2 giant holes). A new engine block costs 60% of the price of a new one, so it was left for parts...

    @Mini-z1994 ปีที่แล้ว

    Done anything more too the kit ? Or kept as is or moved it on perhaps too someone else ? Those plastic details like the mirrors, headlights & roofscoop could use some paint. Video called " Tamiya Time, Ep 10, TA02 Castrol Celica, Vintage Box Art Car " shows one completed in boxart if you want too give it a try despite the damaged body, the body was re-released in 2009 on the DF-03RA as well as partnumber 92202 & also on the TT01E. Team C racing also has a Toyota Celica body that is pretty close too the original one by Tamiya. TC024 is the part number for that one the roof scoop & headlights is part of the body rather then a separate piece is the major differences at a quick glance here & no mirrors but you can probably mount in the Tamiya original body ones there once they are painted as an extra detail & have it look great.

      Hey man, If the receiver that is in the car is what I think it is, it could be on the old school crystal radio frequency, I’d highly recommend getting a flysky radio & receiver setup (they come as a pair ready to go) for relatively cheap, about $50 AUD will get you going. Just going to be safer and much more responsive, I use the flysky fs-gt2 and it’s wicked for the money, Hope that helps and happy nitro sending man

    Hello, I picked up my V one S from my parents, which is over 15 years old. I would like to restore it but I have no knowledge. What do you recommend ? It was my father-in-law who took care of the mechanics and I drove.

    • @torquerc4859
      @torquerc4859 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey there mate, I guess the first step would be cleaning the chassis to be able to properly check all screws, plastics & belts are in good shape. To clean use degreaser and a brush to agitate everything. Dry with compressed air. After cleaning, I’d oil all bearings. From there, you can add some oil to the cylinder (remove the glow plug, replace with OS#8 plug if required). After removing the glow plug, use a hairdryer to warm up the engine for a while, then attempt to use the recoil hand starter to turn over the engine. For the carburettor, use some fuel line & a syringe to push a small amount of methylated spirits into the carb. This will help clear it. Ideally, I would recommend a full engine tear down and deep clean, but I am aware you are new to this. That’s ok. After that you’ll need fuel, a charged igniter and a check of all electronics to ensure they’re working properly. Start it on a block of wood and let it warm up, then you can begin tuning. That should get you going for now man, you can do it 👌🏽🙌🏽
