Xray T3 2012 Spec kit

Having written about Xray’s T3 2012 Spec touring car before we can now show your first pictures of the Slovakian company’s contender for the 2012 season. Based on the successful T3 platform and therefore fully compatible with the majority of spare and option parts, the 2012 Spec features an all-new graphite chassis and top-deck designed for increased overall traction and improved on-power steering. Also new are the front and rear upper bulkheads that now feature three camber link mounting positions and that allow for a quick change of the linkage length and roll centre positions using shims. Along with the new upper bulkheads go new shock towers for increased on-power steering and improved high-traction handling, new harder steering blocks to prevent tyre temperature issues in high-grip conditions, a 4-spring servo saver for increased steering accuracy, and a new leaf-free gear differential that is lighter and smoother compared to other differentials.

Plastic Shocks Again!!!!!! and no ECS Drive shafts!!!! why o why do when you buy an expensive XRAY you still got to spend some more?????, OK Maybe the ECS’s Can be left out but every other manufacturer out there puts metal shock bodies in their kits why cant XRAY???

And the Muti Diff from the ’07-’09 is not compatable. I can’t complain to much I own 5 of them but even the spur gear you have to use thiers or you can’t get to the engine mount screws.

Another $500 plus accoutrements. Oh well, that’s you pay for technology. But that $75 Multi Diff I bought just last year….. that hurt.
