In the re-re manual they have the X3 & X4 damper tension adjustment collars as optional. On my car I have the X3 (thin collar) on the rear shocks, but nothing added to the front mono shock. Interesting you put collars on all of them, did the vintage manual recommend this?
I had to go back and double check. The vintage manual is only is Japanese so it made it tough at times not having some clarifying comments on the build. However, looking at the pictures again it does seem that the X-3 and X-4 collars were only meant to be on the rear as an either or and nothing on the front. Of course the collars are for track side adjustments to deal with specific track conditions so everything would be optional. Thanks for the correction!
Was only able to get the Nova Fox, The FOX was originally going to be my first RC kit but got the TAMIYA HOTSHOT. Thanks for sharing.
The Hornet was my first. Bruiser was the second.
My old rc10 had the sc wiper attached to the servo, too.
I did not know that. I have not done anything with a RC10 yet.
very neat rebuild!
Thanks!
that must be the world record Fox building: 15 minutes whaaw!
I think the video editing takes longer than the actual build!
@@VintageRcGarage sounds familiar :)
What did you clean the outside of the body to make it shine so well?
The body didn’t have any big scratches so just a scrub with a clean cloth. You can also use a plastic polish if you want to take it further.

@@VintageRcGarage Yeah, I just had a google and found a PDF of the Japanese manual too 😃 Great channel btw, Sir 👍🏻
The front is so stiff !
35years ago, it was not easy to ajust this mech. Speed Controller as a child.
All the vintage Tamiya speed controllers were difficult
