New ZZ's come with Springs???
 
My local Radio Shack finally got a new supply of ZZ's in stock so I went and grabbed a 350z. To my surprise it came with springs on the front suspension instead of the bar. I checked all the others and they were the same way. Cool!
This is Canada of course. The US probably had springs a long time ago.
Wish they would get the ZipZap SE's up here soon.

Did not know that, very interesting.

My jeep came with springs, but the camaro had the bar. Since I only have one chassis that isn't broken, it has both. (and two steering springs)

Yeah the new s2k's have springs too.

the plastic bar totally defeats the purpose of springs.

I noticed that too. I was in radioshack about a month ago getting Xmod bearings for a mousetrap car and I saw one of the ZZ chassis they always put on display by the checkout counter. It had springs, and I thought it might have been a employee's car that had been modified, but when I asked about it they said most of the newer ZZs were coming with them.


I guess they keep improving them. Hopefully the next thing RS will do it make some [much] lower bodies.

I noiced the same thing. I bought a Camaro the other day, and it hd the bar. Today I bought the F150 and it had springs.

To be honest, though, they are so weak they do absolutely no good at all, maybe if they were doubled up or something...
