I don't know how to kill a cat, but all the cars listed in the guide below are compatible. There are some exceptions, but do a search on the tinyrc forums. As for bodies, pretty much the only car types available are the ones listed on the Microsizers site. Here's the guide:

There are 3 kinds of official bits, the Tomy BitChar-G, Tomy CompactChar-G, and the Hobbico Microsizer. Everything else is a clone, even Radioshack Zip Zaps! All of the offical bits are pretty much exactly the same, except for frequencies, and special edition stuff, which the Microsizer end has not received yet.

Each of the bits listed above has all of the bodies mentioned on the Hobbico Microsizers website, www.microsizers.com , minus the silver Toyota bB body, which is a United States exclusive.

Tomy BitChar-Gs have 4 available frequencies, or "bands", 27mhz, 35mhz, 45mhz, and 57mhz. It doesn't matter which you choose, they are all pretty much the same. Mods can be made to your car and controller to increase the range of your car. Tomy CompactChar-Gs and BitChar-Gs have some special edition car sets, most of which are derived from Japanese hit cartoons or games. You can view these sets either at the official Tomy website, www.tomy.co.jp , or a place where you can buy them, www.toyeast.com .

Tomy CompactChar-Gs have all of the same frequencies as BitChar-Gs, except that the "CCG", the Australian version of the BitChar-G, has another available band, 40mhz.

Hobbico Microsizers are the North American version of Tomy's BitChar-Gs. As mentioned before, they have all the same bodies and hop-ups, etc. that Tomy has, except for a couple of differences. Hobbico only offers 2.2 (the stock Microsizer engine) engines, and 2.6 engines. Some say that these engines are faster than the Tomy versions. The other difference is due to North American regulations. The only 2 frequencies available for Microsizers are 27mhz, and 59mhz (not a typo, just a north american band).

Clones tend to make fantastic beginner cars, as they tend to be cheap, yet they are still upgradeble. The only real cons with clones is a lack of quality, and frequent compatibility issues with Tomy and Hobbico products. Clones also have a habit of breaking down easily. Most people will agree with me when I say that int he long run, choosing a Hobbico or Tomy product is much more worthy of your time and money. I guarantee that an official bit will last much longer than a clone. However, because of their cheap prices, clones make excellent guinea pigs. Go wild!

Alright! Anyother questions e-mail me at pojo57@hotmail.com , or post here
