SCX 1/43 Parts-Help

[fisherman]

I been thinking about buying a SCX 1/43 to built a 4-Lane, but I have search about getting Parts for these Cars and it looks like SCX do Not sale Parts for these 1/43 Cars... unless I'm not looking in the right Place????

[pfuetze]

as carrera with Go!, SCX is not selling parts for the cars, only complete cars :/ :/ :/

only seperate track pieces ..

What parts are you looking for Fisherman?

Peter is right , there is no separate parts from SCX or Carrera Go except for braids (pickup shoes) & guide pins...

You could always look for electronics & hobby shops for small motors that will fit in the cars
You could also buy lots of Artin cars for cheap you can use the motor but you'll have to reduce the voltage but most of us will buy Artin cars for the chassis which are "easy" to work with & can swap the motor for an SCX or Carrera ones

As for the track I highly recommend you buy Carrera Go instead
I have both & Carrera Go have a smoother track surface & you can use the clips to attach the track together so it won't come appart

Other great points is that Carrera go got lots more track parts like R3 curves , bridges , digital , more cars varieties , etc...
You also find Carrera Go sets almost everywhere you go like Walmart , toysRus , hobby shops , etc...

If you really want cars with guide flag instead of guide pin then you can buy the Carrera tracks & buy SCX cars separately or mod/add your own guide flag to the carrera go cars

If you got any questions just ask away lots of great & helpful people here

@ headhunter nice track video :text-bravo:

I just found the pictures... What you can do with Artin motors to give a better center of gravity
I will have to try that if it works good I might use Artin chasis & motor + a slide guide on my cars & use a voltage between 7-9 volts..?

I wonder why we didnt try this before Mikey! It looks good, let us know if it handles better.

Regards, Lloyd.

yep, the cars handle way better with the motor in the horizontal position (Saleen, done 2008 ;) )
