The alloy suspension pin holders are worth their weight in,,, silver! Very nice options. All look to be difficult to find if your actually looking for them. Then when it dosent matter,, their all in one pile, probably cheap too...

yup, they are not necessarily hard to find but are generally expensive, pargu makes repro lazer suspension holders and other parts. the tf parts are same but not as in demand. Like another has said they do come up on fleabay and if lucky you can score them at a good price. IMO the lazer c-hubs are the most desireable and rarest in the lot. Im jealous and sure not the only drooler.

Its hard to say. Not really supposed to discuss that topic on these forums. You know how the saying goes, they are worth what someone will pay or what you are willing to sell for. Supply and demand. You could look on ebay at similar items or even list them and hope for the best. If you have access to the BST forum you could possibly get help there. From what I can identify you have a vintage kyosho lazer zx motor mount plate and side plate, upper deck mount, suspension mount blocks and c-hubs, plus a rear shock stay. those are probably the most in-demand. you also have kyosho tf2 tf3 sub chassis mounts and motor mount plate.

this is a link might help

The GPM parts in the last picture are not for a Lazer, but for a Kyosho TF-2/3.

I'm pretty sure the mms part is a side plate that goes opposite the motor mount plate.

Paragu may make the pivot blocks but they are not an exact match as they are narrower than the originals so not worth buying. Cost wise for the lazer items well the motor plate and pivot blocks you will make some money on as they are sought after
