Tamiya TT-02 Rally Conversion - Complete Review and Tutorial

Welcome to this Tamiya TT-02 Chassis Rally Conversion Guide, where I'm going to show you how to Convert this chiassis into a proper Rc Rally Car, without spending a lot of money.
With this mods you are going to increase the handling and the performances of this Rc Car in any surface: Onroad, Offroad, gravel, grass and sand.
Adding some Hop-Up and modifying the steering system using a top deck you are going to increasing the steering angle, meanwhile adding a new pair of shock towers, cvds and modifying the suspension arms will allow you to increase the ground clearence.

Do you have the stl or dxf files for the upper deck?

[@buffalodiehard]

i love that you are covering all these different rally chassis thank you Dario

[@dariorcgarage]

Welcome! More to come in the future

[@somedudewithakeyboard]

Great overview of TT-02 rally conversion. Thanks.

[@Tmman1997]

Hey Dario I've just buy a tt02 to complete my RC builds with the xv01. What a perfect timing. Thanks for the video Dario!

[@dariorcgarage]

Nice to know! Enjoy your TT-02

[@maxm1417]

Thank you dario! The video i was waiting for!! 🎉

[@dariorcgarage]

Welcome! Happy to know that

[@christophblack9390]

Hi Dario. I'm glad your back to Tamiya.

[@dariorcgarage]

I'll keep making video related to Tamiya cars, they are amazing!

[@christophblack9390]

What do think about Tamiya's new XM01 chassis?@@dariorcgarage

[@buschi3530]

Hallo Darius, vielen vielen Dank für die ausführlichen Vorstellung mit den dazugehörigen Maßen. Mega gut. 😊❤ LG

[@theoagrc]

Great video Dario 👍🏻

[@dariorcgarage]

Thanks!

Welcome! Enjoy my KZbin Channel 🙂

[@fotoprojekts]

I havn't tried my tt02 outdoors jet, but I have achieved 35-36 cm u-turn diameter. Hope that weather here in Latvia soon will be fine to test it outdoors.

[@dariorcgarage]

Congratulations! Happy to know that this video helped you

[@metoo1980]

Great built, great video! Thank you for the detail explantation. Can you please give an estimate for the length of the steering rods?

[@dariorcgarage]

Thank you! I'll try let you know, but of course are a bit longer than the stock ones. If I remember correctly 3cm

[@lamasjoven]

Thank you for explaining it. It is very good. In another video they show the turning radius that the xv-01 wheels. And a this model, how much turning radius it has? To compare between models. Very thank's

[@dariorcgarage]

That's the video kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaSXhoCCZ8SJeqssi=8bfzoRsHQ2pM-fRX 46cm for Tamiya XV-01

[@farhanalsyafiq7508]

Do you have a link for the upper deck printing

[@shouwnoosting6030]

Thanks Dario for the informative video. Do you think you need the top chassis brace if you use the Tamiya Hop-up hard chassis?

[@dariorcgarage]

Hi, can you be more precise please? To which item are you referring:)

[@shouwnoosting6030]

@@dariorcgarage I'm referring to the lower chassis. I have upgraded mine to the Hop Up Options hard chassis. Do you think an upper brace is still needed if you use the hard chassis option?

[@Outlawracing713]

Love your videos! Quick question, what radio do you use? I’m new to the hobby and want to use all the same stuff as you

[@dariorcgarage]

Happy to know that you enjoy my videos! I used a Sanwa MX6, now I'm using a Sanwa MT-5

[@user-yt4kd2qi9x]

hello. 4WD front damper hard, soft on the rear. Try a few times and you'll find the run you want. After 2WD drive, the rear shock absorber is hard, and the front shock absorber is soft. The front drive is hard on the front shock absorber. I hope it was helpful

[@dariorcgarage]

Thank you for the advices

[@SterlingMissel-vb7rx]

where can i get the top deck print files

[@m0liee]

Picked up a 2nd TT01 SRX and want to make it a fun rally car. What shock towers did he use in this build and what sre the length of the shocks? Thank you.

[@dariorcgarage]

The rear one it's from Tamiya XV-01 (hopup) the damper's should be 5-6cm if I remember correctly

[@ginolim02]

What is the front damper stay? the rear looks like from an xv01?

[@dariorcgarage]

The rear is from XV-01, the front one I don't know since this chassis it's not mine. But you can try to adapt whatever you have

[@fotoprojekts]

Hi Dario! Whats is the diff setup on this tt02 chassis?

[@dariorcgarage]

Hello! No diff oil, just grease

[@shindisingh1165]

8:15 - this rear carbon shock tower looks like an XV-01 long damper stay 👌 10:04 - i think they're the same on the outside, i dont see the difference, it looks like youre holding 1 of them the wrong way round 🧐🤔

[@dariorcgarage]

Hi! Yes that's a shock tower from XV-01 Long Damper, but the idea of the video is to "give the freedom" to adapt what you have around in order to obtain this result. Thanks for pointing it out, my mistake while filming. The outer part has been trimmed a bit too by my friend, thought was important to share this detail too

[@shindisingh1165]

​@@dariorcgaragethanks Dario, I'm going to look into the XV long damper stays!

[@enricomiceli5517]

0er quanto apprezzi l'inventiva la macchina non performerà mai come la xv01, bella idea ma io a sto punto lascerei la tt02 al touring e comprerei una xv01.

[@user-pj8hu4op6z]

The regular TT02 has a big problem. Even the width is 190mm same as type s, but actually the arms of TT02 is shorter only the wheel offset to reach 190mm. Check the TRF arms that come with type S, are much longer than the regular TT02 arm. The consequence is unstable as the actual wheel base is narrow

[@dariorcgarage]

Good point! Some offset could also help

[@user-pj8hu4op6z]

​@dariorcgarage meaningless to tune camber, it just makes the steering only worse

[@SergeyZZZ1977]

I have a very bad experience using the TT-02 Rally. Low quality and reliability. There are a lot of breakdowns, a lot of wear and tear, and it requires a lot of spare parts and tuning. Fragile plastic in the cold. Now I only use HSP FF.

[@dj4monie]

Sounds like a personal problem not the chassis.

Dario parla in italiano grazie 🙏
