Following my recent thread about the COMCOM Kyosho Lazer carbon tub, I wanted to present this old dog still sitting in its '94 juice. I plan to restore it with white ball cups all around (still need to locate them), white shock parts (help again please!) and maybe new Fybre-Lite top deck, shock towers and steering brace as they were dyed by the previous owner together with the white parts and show a blue color that doesn't match the tub, details... I already sourced a pair of new front a-arms as these were cut at some point. Oh well, this will be a long-term project for sure. All the electronics came with it, neat stuff, ain't it?

nice tub

I asked if they still have the mold a couple of year ago. damn.. they lost the mold
you got a very nice tub there

very nice david! i'm working on one also bet you will finish before i do ill keep an eye out for parts for us both

can we get some close up's? the front end looks very interesting. you have all the com com shock tower's and torque brace parts

Yep, all the possible COMCOM parts are there, I'll take some pics of the front end tomorrow. Thanks for keeping an eye open Gary, I am mainly after no less than 16 white Yokie ball cups and white plastic shock parts. This project must be like number 10 on my project list, so I won't touch it anytime soon unless I suddelnly find all the needed parts.

wow......superb tub........

using the Lazer ZXR wing mount was very popular during that time......

any more pic's david?? keen to see the front bulkhead and below the torque brace area amazing find mate

I'll try to snag some for you this weekend. There is nothing special there though besides drilled and lightened front magnesium bulkhead and a standard front Works '93 set-up with COMCOM braces. This will be a very long-term project as I need to source quite a lot of parts for what I would like it to look like.

Dave do you need the link type ends, or the ball cup type ends?

Very nice, such a cool period piece, I remember that ESC I had one back when racing YR-4's in the Keil DTM series. Love the old LRP Stuff.

I need no less than 10 white link type ends Can you help me? They do not need to be NIP, but at least in good shape.

I have NIP , but I think that they are 8 per pack?

i think that's a bunch of bull. they also had a sweet tub for the yok mr-4 touring car. i think they just thought that they weren't getting what it was suppose to cost. or, yokomo told them to cut it out.

Very nice, i like the LRP esc by the way !

Does anyone know whether these YR-4 front and rear bulkheads will fit this '93 based car?
