No, the TQ10 was an exclusive thru Horizon Hobby

What an awesome sticky!
Thank you so much for documenting all the step changes, invaluable.

So I have finally had a chance to work on some of my cars and I have been putting together an all black late worlds car. Hope to have some updates on that soon, and then the B2 nib kit (finally )!

Best. Thread. Ever. Great job guys!

Don't know if it was mentioned yet, didn't read the whole thread. But the B3 in later production years came with a different rear shock tower that came in a kit with the matching body. Just some random info for a good thread.

I'm positive this has been posted before but......

Hi RJ,

Nice one, I have never seen that before.

Cheers, Dave.

This has helped me tremendously. I was checking out B3 info since I got one and found the Team Kit has a part number of 9032. I checked associated's site and it says the same. Mine has 9033. I can't find any info. Anyone have any ideas?

I have the same B3 kit.

In my quick research, it seems to me that the #9033 team kit is the original 1997 B3 release. The #9032 kit came a few years later when the Factory team version came out. Looks like it was upgraded to the Proline wide body wheels...... and maybe some other things. Boxart is also different, and they have another Ifmar title on the later one.

I'm building mine from the box and posting it on my VAE B3 thread if anyone wants to see more detail about the kit.

I think the factory team kit had blue anodized parts in it , dejavue body, and the short rear shock tower.

I think Rod has the Factory Team kit. Once I'm done building my Team Kit he can do a comparison and post them on page 1.

Awesome, thanks!

I'll eventually get around to rebuilding it. So many to do lol

I got my b3 in 1997 and although the orig box is long gone,
My manual says 9033.

I always thought the wide wheels came in the "worlds upgrade" 9021 ? Kit or were available as a seperate part only...
I may be wrong though!
